i suggest we make a battle forum where someone posts the rules for the battle ie: -make the best paint program -must have bucket feature -must have line tool -must have pencil tool -must be less than 100 lines long -any program can be used (turing, vb, java etc) deadline: 1 week from now... then users post their programs and after the deadline we make a poll and vote for the best program. it doesnt have to be programing either. it could include drawing the best pixel graphics etc.... so how about it??? -zylum |

well wouldnt participating in these "battles" help you improve your programming skills? you get great ideas for a program and then you have fun coding it while learning new skills. on a different forum that i was part of, they had a battle forum and it really helped me improve my actionscript skills because some of the programs i made were challenging yet fun. |

i think its a good idea. it would give people things to program, help improve programming skills, as well as promote a healthy level of competition among the compsci uesr.s |

Battle forum? 1 vs 1 ? team? free for all? I guess it would make things more interesting. |

let me guess,this is from the other forum that i forgot its name. Darkness told me that he wanted to do a link exchange with them, but they replied with an email swearing at him because their site is not as popular as compsci.ca |

what you want... essentially is some challenges... why dont we elect a Contest mod, that thinks up challenges... and have them vary for different ranks... under newbe hacker.. make a pong in a week newbe hacker > kick ass hacker - make a shooter.. in a week > kick ass hacker... make something realy hard... in a week ... that might be better then creating another forum that dont get much action.... contest could use some ... as lots probaly dont read the contest forum that much... |

rank doesnt have anything to do with programming skill, its the number of posts u have it means nothing. |
