Electra Competitions: Tracker Music and Battles in VIRUS

Competition

And so, another competition! But first, the answer to the previous competition. Overall, we are not satisfied with your activity, or more precisely—inactivity. We haven't received a single answer to the previous competition's question. That means the big PRIZE stays with us. It's not even worth telling you the answer! Well, alright, alright, but for the last time...

The correct answer is: the screen where the anomaly can be seen is the 13th in order. In it, Dizzy swims, even though there is no water. It should be noted that we didn't hack it ourselves at all; it's a bug in the game.

And now, finally, about the new competitions. First, about the competition for the best computer musicians of Latvia and its rules. Any composition created in WHAM, SOUUNDTRACKER, ASC SOUND MASTER, PRO SOUND MAKER, or PROTRACKER format and submitted in uncompiled form may enter the competition. The music will then go through two rounds: the readers' round and the editorial round. In the editorial round, we will judge the compositions, but we'll tell you a bit more about the readers' round. We will include all compositions in an issue of the magazine (protected, of course, so they can't be ripped so easily) and readers will be able to vote for the composition they like the most. The winners will receive good prizes (as good as we, poor folks, can afford).

And one more competition for the best virus creator. This virus must be created using the popular game VIRUS (AMATEUR SOFTWARE SYSTEM). Afterward, we will pit the viruses against each other and see which one is cooler. As always, the winner will receive a very, very big prize.

That's all for now, but there might be more—everything depends on your feedback.

P.S. You can bring a diskette with the tunes or the virus to the Latgales tirgus and give it to Paša or STUDIO A. These cool guys will pass the disks to us later.
