7400 Fri, 5 Nov 1999 15:36:37 -0600 CONTEST beam@sgiblab.sgi.com owner-beam@sgiblab.sgi.com [mailto:owner-beam@sgiblab.sgi.com]On

would anyone be interested in participating in a
contest (like chiu's) that was NOT hosted by a "BEAM
god?" (ie- ME) i know that when a major BEAMer like
chiu has a contest, it commands respect, thats just
the way it is: but it seems that whenever i ask a
question on my page, or ask people to participate in
something, only like one or two nice people actually
respond.. and thats really pale in comparison to the
hours people spend making bots for chiu's contests...
i just want to see for the last time if BEAM really is
just led by a couple masters, or if the lower levels
of BEAMers can have fun too... so would anyone like to
participate in a contest i would start? the theme
would probably be just a most interesting behavior
photovore... standard rules. as for prizes? well, if
nobody donates anything, they will be really small (se
parts packs??? i dunno...) because not everyone can
afford huge amounts of parts like escaps and other
expensive motors and things, let alone give them away
as prizes... sorry to offend all you higher ups, but i
am trying to speak for the less super BEAMers.
