I'm asking Siphex, Pneu and 69er to create sprays, to see who can do them properly, who uses varieties of colour, who is the most creative. Seeing from the ones that all three of them made, I'd say they are good. But the main reason for this is:
Whoever wins the competition (Propaganda contest) I will ask them to promote the ESF's Scrims and ESF's Scrim Practices by, creating sprays for us.

We have exactly 6 contestants now: Ninji, Adam, Dr. 69'er, Siphex, Furgus and Chuck.

I was hoping:

1.Adam and 69'er could make final versions of their sprays.
2.Some more contestants would join.

We need at least some final versions so i can put up a poll to vote for the best sprays. Who else can make cool sprays???

I am not content about the overall quality of the current submissions, there are just a few serious usable ones. I'm hoping there will be more people who want to take part in this contest.

Eraser, when I get the ESF full, and when we have our first scrim, would it be alright if I asked somebody, whoever wins this competition, to promote the Scrim by making a scrim poster?

Well, when you say what event it is, you could PROMOTE it by using a poster. Say if the ESF / SF scrimmed a clan, you could put a poster with a particular class, in the background, then you could have the date, then underneath that you could have the clan your scrimming for eg:
Soldier saluting in background
(THE DATE)
PULP ESF/SF VS (ANY CLAN)

Then to promote the poster even better you could put it on the website, and also, you could promote it even better by putting it in the server, like one in each spawn and one in the middle floor of the tower.

THATS why I want a poster!

Eraser, can we speak about this in Steam Chat? Then you can hear the reason why I want a poster and what I'd do with it.

Put a post in which background??? Of a forum topic or what?

Why do you want to promote a scrim? For who? To what purpose?

Please stop saying posters when you mean sprays, it's so confusing Jonesie. We had a topic in the admin section which resulted in this contest. You were talking about 'posters' then and i asked 'Do you mean sprays' and you said 'yes'. The result is that Siphex and Pneu have made posters instead of sprays. So stop talking about posters please!

I'm in steam now.

I believe that he actually refer to posters this time. I'll explain what I think he tries to say.

Take the TF2Blog for example. When they launch or announce an update or event they promote it with a poster. In the same way we could promote larger events by having a webbased event showcase or simply add the poster in the margin/background of your homepage.

I personally recommend that all mappers here in PULP learns how to implement materials into Hammer World Editor. That way posters could easily be displayed in game on large "welcomeboards". Thoose posters could also easily be replaced by new posters. Not harder than replacing a skin in TF2. It would also be quite simple to create big monitors that after a certain amount of time swaps between a variety of different posters. Imagine a large telescreen, no affection on the gameplay if omptmized correctly, which promotes all upcoming events.

This is just my opinion.

Yes i talked this over with Jonesie. What he meant was a poster that can be used in forum topics (and ingame) to promote a scrim or other event so there will be an audience. I like the idea about the ingame welcomeboards but lets open another topic, shall we? This thread is about a spray contest.

Eraserhead wrote:We have been discussing this in the admins forum and we would like to call upon all PULP members to who wish to make available their creative talent. We would like to have sprays that can be used ingame for recruiting new PULP members and finding people who want to participate in pugs.

So the sprays are:

A spray that attracts people to become PULP member
-spray in vtf format
-should read something people can type into chat (like app or join) OR go to www.pulpfortress.com or both? Just keep the instruction and amount of text as minimal as possible

A spray that attracts people to register for an upcoming pickup game
-spray in vtf format but also in a format that we can use to edit the text and make a new spray each time there is a pug
-should display the date and time (EST) of the pug and an instruction how to register (go to www.pulpfortress.com/pugs) or type pug in chat (we can change the chatcommand if you have better idea's)

Please post your sprays in this thread. The prize of the best spray for each category will get a custom hat of his choice (as soon as the custom hats are working again...)! The only condition is that there are at least 4 contestants.

Pneu just made a great spray to promote the contest. I request the help of every member to promote this contest by using this spray ingame!!

You can download it as a zipped vtf file at the beginning of this thread and at the bottom of this post.

Most of you probably know how to add a spray into TF2. As Eraserhead requested, I'll write a short description for those who don't:

Put your spray (.Vtf file) in both the 'logos' and 'ui' folder. Illustrated below:
C:\Program\Steam\steamapps\<Your username>\team fortress 2\tf\materials\vgui\logos\ui

If any of these folders don't exist, just create new ones, put them in the same order and name them the same as above.

Start TF2. Go into options -> Multiplayer. Press the button 'Import spray' and start browsing for your spray. The location of the spray is same as above.
(I'm not 100% sure, but pick the .Vtf file in the 'logos' folder. This works for me). Apply the changes and you should be ready to let people all across the TF2 universe know this contest exist!

I don't want to be assigned a spray, I want to spray my own spray, the "Boom Baby" spray you might have seen a couple of times when playing with me and I don't think many others want to give up their sprays either.

However I could imagine me running around spraying sprays telling people to vote for me in the contest but thats not really the same deal.
