W<Y W<Y ZÅÅÄÓ "the kaos-system" ZÅÅÄÓ WÖÜ !"Y WÖÜ !"Y #$ %& by akira/project-x #$ %& ---------------------------------------- the text you are about to read was sent to me by akira of project-x and it is about a special swap-competition... so if you are a swapper,and you think you are not appreciated the way you think you ought to be,read this and you can prove what you can!! ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- have you ever dreamed... that you were the best swapper in the world ? ---------------------------------------- the kaos elite system is a new compe- tition organized by the first class french group : project-x ! this compo will start this summer,at the 1st of july.the aim is to be the best mail - trader during 2 months.for that , you have to send us each disks you'll send to your normals contacts.at the end of the two months we will give points to each of your sendings and we'll add'em all in order to give your score. when we'll have finished to count everything we'll send to all of you a little disk-mag containing all the results with a mega-charts. the winner of the compo will win a price of 100$. the second will win 50$. and another one , choose by a lottery will also win 50 us dollars. so even if you're not a top elite swapper you have your chance to win a price. for those who think that the prices are not so high,i'll answer that you have nothing to pay to participate and that we will send back your stamps if you ask for it.so everything is financed by us.the prices will be more important if kaos have a great success. if you wanna receive the complete rules of the competition then write to us at the following addy : --------------- akira/project-x --------------- XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX a phone line will be put out soon. ---------------------------------------- the competition each compo is 2 months long. during this period,you have to send the same disks that you send to your normal contacts. those sendings bring you some points that we add,and it gives us your score for the compo. at last,we make a chart of the best mail-traders,released in a disk mag of us. and of course,the winners receive some prices. ---------------------------------------- the points * each disk filled................20 pts * quantity of wares on a disk...1-10 pts * quality of wares on a disk....1-10 pts * speed of the sending..........0-10 pts * special........................1-3 pts * paper mag.....................5-25 pts * a ware already sent by you......-2 pts ---------------------------------------- explanations speed of the sending...we consider the following things... the delay between when we receive the stuff from you and... 1.when the first-release (for a crack) is done, 2.when the mag or the demo has been officialy released. special if something cool is sent with the disks then we will add 1,2 or 3 points... those special things could be things like votesheets,paper invitation for a party,some money.your sister,a ferarri.. as you can see,we also give a lot of points for those who spread papermags. ---------------------------------------- some technical rules 1.of course we won't sent back all your disks ! 2.if you want us to send back your stamp then write it somewhere clearely in one of your sends. 3.you must make a minimum of 2 sendings during a compo. 4.if you are not in a group then you can not take part in the compo. but we will admit those who used to be in a group and who are temporary groupless. 5.you are all allowed to make sendings with cheated stamps,fake stamps or not enough stamps !! (i think it's a cool rule,hehe!) 6.you don't have to send money to enter in the compo ! it's totally free ! 7.at the end of each compo we will published a little disk mag containing all the results.but only the 100 first guys will recieve this mag.the other ones should find it by themselves or read others disk-mags. 8.if we think that you have cheated in anything then we'll disqualify you immediatly. if we made a mistake in disqualifying you,then you could phone/write us and explain your point of view. 9.for those who think that friends of us will win anyway,can also write/phone us and we will explain you that we are no cheaters. 10.we count the disks recieved between the 1st day of the 1st month and the last day of the 2nd month. if a sending comes one or two days too late we will count it for the next compo. ---------------------------------------- the compos 1. 1st july to 31st august 2. 1st september to 31st october 3. 1st november to 31st december 4. 1st january to 28th february 5. 1st march to 30th april 6. 2nd may to 30th june ps there's no mail on 1st may... ---------------------------------------- the prices for the moment... 1st. 100$ 2nd. 50$ and,choose by a lottery,another entrant will win 50$. ---------------------------------------- about the rules... this is a new kind of compo , so the rules are not yet perfect. we will certainly change some of them in the future,but we'd like to have your opinion about'em ! for the moment,the prices are not so high,but are financed by us. if you wanna have more prices (the 1o or 15 first guys for example...) we could make a rule that obliged all entrants to send one or two dollars... or we could make a rule that obliged you to send money from your country and this money would be gived to the winners of the country charts. don't hesitate to send us your ideas about this compo...we will published'em in our disk mag. ---------------------------------------- about our disk-mag... in this disk-mag we will also publish your announces concerning harware for c64 or amiga.if you wanna buy or sell something then write it clearly on a paper with its price (or with the price you'd like to buy it...).the announces will be ranked by countries. that's all... ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- this really seems like a cool idea!! finally someone came with the idea to give all swappers a chance to prove what they are made off!! but it's pretty easy to cheat! i,for instance,haven't sent to any of my contacts for about 4 months now.. but i can ofcourse easily only sent to this compo and i might even get some prizes!! i could also simply sent them every disk i get my hands on!!! maybe they should make a rule,only allowing you to send own wares... that wouldn't be fair either,so this might be quite a difficulty... anyway,the prizes can ofcourse be higher,as everybody can pay 2 dollars, or something like that... okay,i hope this will turn out into a big success and if the first compo is over,we'll bring you the results... ----------------------------------------
