Halloween? have to be kidding. So soon after the summer ones? You are doing exactly what demosthenes is doing (no offense). God's quest 1: Original, good. God's quest 2: Ok, pushing it. God's quest 3: Way too far man.
The olympics are something athletes train for all year long, for 4 years. Doing it 7 times a year will get repetitive and boring, make it bi-annual at most. Summer and Winter, not Summer, Winter, Thanksgiving, Halloween, Easter, St Patrick's Day and so forth. Don't do this.
Agreed. Summer and winter is good, and maybe get word out like 2-3 months before the deadline, as to have them be top-quality projects - things that can be representations of the potentials of scratch and be inspirations to aspiring programmers.

the reason were doing halloween is cuz people on scratch are kids, they have shorter attention spans, but who cares kids rule. if you dont do things often enough people lose interest, thats why you have to keep them interested, i agree with what your saying but if you look at it form another perspective, the longer you wait the less attention it will attract. but i agree, summer and winter from now on.

Looks like the registration date is passed...
7 teams
18 players
3 teams of 4 (Lost souls, Hellish Haggis, Canadian Black cats)
1 team of 3 (Wandering souls)
2 teams of 1 ( Archangel, Blue phantom)
1 team of 2 (runescape goblins)
And technoman can you change my team's name to just 'blue phantom' since I'm the only one in it and right now the team name is plural?

hey everyone as of now im pretty sure thats its too late to register a team so good luck to those who have already registered, there is a week until halloween so go as fast as you can!
also animations are acceptable, its the best project not the best game
we have judges already so though we appreciate it there is no need to say that you want to.
and lastly the site has had some updates on the teams so if there are any errors please leave me a message on the scratch website. click the link below to see the olympics page. http://www.dg-games.com/thescratcholympics.htm

What do you mean by judging scripting? Like going into the project to see how efficient or creative the programming itself is?
Finally got 50 posts, now I can show my awesome logo

The judges are me(technoman), fanofcena, and fantasytales. I am judging scripting, FT is judging usability and presentation, and fanofcena is judging graphics and sound.
Bad grammar technoman. It's:
"The judges are fanofcena, FantasyTales, and I, who is technoman."
There, that sounds better!
UH.
The 60 second thing!!
