Suppose I should throw this here as well, kinda forgot.
Howdy! Here's a huds.tf contest about HUDs! Develop a HUD from scratch and maybe win some prizes if you're good enough! Boy oh boy. Get ready for the worst selling of a contest ever because I am a terrible marketer. Let's go!
The contest is themed around the in-game UI, which covers the Health, Ammo, Killstreaks and so on. Basically, everything you see while playing the game.
Now, no contest is worth doing without prizes. You all want something for contributing, I'm sure of it. Let's do that then. But while we do that, let's explain how to get involved.
If you want to get fully involved in the contest, all you need to do is design and implement a working HUD in TF2 by May 31st. The full specifics can be found on the huds.tf thread. After the cut off date, an open, community vote will be running, in which, as the name suggests, the community will vote on their favorite submission.
The first place winner will receive 15 keys!
Second place receives 10 keys
Third place receives 5 keys
That's a decent payout if I may say so myself.
But that's not it! Voters get a chance to win too! By voting, you are automatically entered into a raffle to win 5 keys. Winning for doing nothing except voting for a nice looking HUD? What a world.
Everything else you need to know is on the huds.tf thread. You can sign up to the forums using Steam, so it's not too much hassle to get yourselves involved.
I can answer any questions here or on huds.tf.
Cheers!

Isn't 1 month kind of a short span to make a fully functional hud from scratch??

KanecoIsn't 1 month kind of a short span to make a fully functional hud from scratch??
I made this fully functional in a few hours. I mean yeah, I know what files to edit and how, but a month is a long time to move some things around that are already placed in a file to begin with. I think that's a fair amount of time.
However, if there are concerns with a month being too short a time span, I'll extend it. We'll see how submissions go.

No but I'll send whoever makes a carrot based HUD a real life carrot with my name on it

Yep, just the in-game stuff. All the specifics are on post #3 of the huds.tf thread.

If anyone is struggling for inspiration, I think a Smash Bros themed hud would be cool.

Actually been after a Smash font for a while, wanted to do that kind of HUD myself. If nobody else does it for the contest, I'll start it as a side project.

So ye... I've made some more progress. Renamed the HUD into Saxo HUD.
I'll prob change the huds.tf forum post I made on the older version of this TeamPlumber2HUD.
Here are some screenies; http://imgur.com/a/jvKRt
I'm working on.
-Times and etc for KOTH.
-CTF.
-TargetID's
-Fixes
.. and yes it does work in 4:3

Just a heads up, contest ends in 2 weeks. I know a few people are getting involved, but they haven't submitted their HUDs yet.
You can do so by making a thread here.
Mubby, you should consider updating your huds.tf thread if you want your saxo HUD submission to go through rather than your plumber one.

Does it counts as a submission without github?

Another reminder, the submission deadline is THIS SUNDAY.
Unfortunately, the site has been having some trubs over the last few days, so I may extend the deadline by a few days. It's out of my hands for now, just waiting on the host to give me some information on the cause of the site's downtime.
However, whenever the site comes back up, don't forget to make your submission thread and MARK IT AS COMPLETED if it's ready to enter into the contest.
Cheers
