Talk:48 Hour Contests
Origin Theory[edit]
Bob the Hamster (talk): My theory is that the OHR 48 Hour game making contest was probably inspired by the Verge 48 Hour contest. I, and a few other early OHR community members were active on the old Verge forums before the days of the first OHRRPGCE forums, and I definitely (fuzzily) remember there being at least one Verge 48 hour competition.
2003?[edit]
There was a 2003 48-hour contest, wasn't there? I know I made the original Frankfurter's Quest for Soap for a 48-hour contest way back in the day, sometime after Castle Paradox existed (since I remember that I uploaded the game there rather than on my personal website I had at the time) but definitely before 2004 since I was still in high school at the time. And it's not mentioned on the 2002 contest's page, so 2003 seems like the only remaining option. Are there not any records of this one still around, or has it just not found its way onto the page yet? FnrrfYgmSchnish (talk) 22:10, 6 February 2015 (PST)
Yes, the page was simply missing every contest before 2009 and was organised in a confusing way. I've now finished trawling the entirety of SS for threads about contests after 3 days, but haven't even touched CP yet, which has even more threads than SS. So I'm going to take a break now; you're safe to add anything you want. --TMC (talk) 06:19, 7 February 2015 (PST)
Ah, okay. I figured the page just wasn't complete yet (I hadn't really looked at it prior to seeing it show up in "recent changes" yesterday), but wasn't 100% sure. FnrrfYgmSchnish (talk) 10:49, 7 February 2015 (PST)
