|
|
This is the first contest of the 2009 Holiday Logitech and ScoreHero Promotions!
What: Logitech & ScoreHero Pimp Your Hardware Video Contest
When: 11/13/09 - 12/20/09
Where: http://www.youtube.com/group/ScoreHeroLogitech
Winners Announced: December 25, 2009
Concept
In conjunction with the theme of special game hardware, this contest allows you the chance to showoff ScoreHero's best Guitar Hero and/or Rock Band (or DJ Hero now if you wish) controller modifications in a fun and creative way.
Judging Rules
Judging will be done by the ScoreHero and/or Logitech staff and is based on two main criteria:
1. Concept - This could be anything from a simple external paint job to complicated technical enhancement.
2. Presentation - Don't just make a boring explanation video, come up with a fun and unique way to demonstrate your concept in action.
These categories will have equal weight. So if you don't necessarily have the technical expertise to make some awesome controller modification, you can do something simpler and focus more on your presentation to increase the odds of winning. Of course we do encourage interesting technical mods as well if you're capable. :)
I suggest browsing the Hardware forums for examples of what people have done so far, and for advice on how to implement many existing modifications. Use your imagination and see what you can come up with! Here's a few more specific threads that are worth noting as resources:

Guitar Modding 101

Entry Rules
Deadline: Sunday, December 20, 2009 at 11:59PM EST
Since personal information must be supplied by winners (name and shipping address), you must be 18 or older or have parental/guardian consent to enter. All submissions are to be video recordings designed for YouTube, which means YouTube restrictions apply on the video format, size, and length.
Each ScoreHero member may only enter once, so I suggest taking your time to plan for a good result. Once you've got your video recorded and ready to go, there are two steps to post your entry:
1. Submit the video to the YouTube group accessible at: http://www.youtube.com/group/ScoreHeroLogitech
2. Go to the following entry page on ScoreHero and submit the YouTube video ID along with your console of choice if you were to win: http://www.scorehero.com/contest.php?id=1
When uploading your video to YouTube, please adhere to the following standards to keep things organized:
Title: Logitech & ScoreHero 2009 Entry - [Your creative title here]
Description: First be sure to include a link back to this topic for rules and information about the contest. Next, include your SH username so we know the video you claim you're submitting is your own. And the rest of the description is yours!
Tags: logitech scorehero hardware contest
Category: "Gaming"
Privacy: "Share your video with the world"
Submissions missing any of the above may be excluded from judging.
Prizes
Prizes will be split by console based on your preference of Xbox 360, Playstation 3, or Nintendo Wii. There will be 3 winners for every console, which also means your competition is defined by whomever else selects the console that you pick. The prize structure for each console will be as follows:
1st place - Logitech Guitar AND Drums controllers
2nd place - Your choice of the Logitech Guitar OR Logitech Drums controller
3rd place - Logitech Guitar OR Logitech Drums (whichever one is NOT picked by the 2nd place winner)
On top of these console-specific prizes, there will be ScoreHero prizes awarded for the overall best submissions across ALL consoles as follows:
1st place overall - $100 in point cards* + ScoreHero Shirt of your choice
2nd place overall - $75 in point cards* + ScoreHero Hat of your choice
3rd place overall - $50 in point cards* + ScoreHero Houseware of your choice
4th place overall - $25 in point cards* + ScoreHero Mug of your choice
5th place overall - ScoreHero T-shirt of your choice
* Console of your choice: Xbox 360, Playstation 3, or Nintentdo Wii
Happy holidays to all and I look forward to seeing what you all come up with! _________________

I'm totally doing this. Just have to get my SD card working (for camera), finally I'll be able to do something with my telecaster Frontman. |

Aw Gee, I've never been much of a guitar modder... But I certainly could whip something up for this. _________________

Goddamn those drums are sexy. I don't know if I am creative enough to win though. Maybe if I think of something awesome i'll do it, but so far i'm thinking i might just have to throw down the $220. I'll wait until the official verdict on the drums comes from scorehero staff though. The ion drums are about the same price _________________
