Joy, we should do this. I'll finish the theme for the game, and we could put together something awesome.
If you need video edits I'll do it.
I'm a bit surprised that no one is interested in winning money. Wow! The RPG Maker Community(all sites) are losing interest.
I somebody wanted me to edit, I could possibly do it. Possibly only because of time, I know I have the skills.

I would assume it's because it smells like a popularity stunt.
popularity stunt or not, it is $100. I would totally do it if I ever had a game.
My game is not near far enough along to actually make a trailer. I'm working on it, but still don't know what to call it. So, I'll offer my services in other ways.

I could be down for this, had some ideas to try anyways. I'll head over and apply on the site tonight or tomorrow morning. We can split der prize money.
Also..hop in IRC to chat on ideas.
If I had a game, I would enter. But I have no hope in hell of winning even third place. So good luck to the guys that enter.
That Mad Klown guy had a contest for $100. I signed up, did it, and it never got updated again.
Yeah, the last time someone did something like this, nothing ever happened despite people having turned in stuff. So, I'll keep a mite of skepticism for things like this.
The trailer thread for trailers is up! Enter your trailers!

This is not a stunt. This is a real contest. Keep your lies out of my topic and contest!
lol I got second place. $50 for me. Lucky you guys didn't enter because it would've been more competition.
