Its ok people, its not going to be the highest score wins, that was just Masonogy putting his two cents in, Fulp's actual words before that. I think it pretty much means, you can submit before hand but it will be like giving tom a present a month before his birthday and by the time his birthday comes around he'll have newer and better toys to play with. And it is Pico DAY not pico day and the months preceeding it.
THey wouldnt do it by highest ranking score either coz thatd just be stupid, youd get fucking pico clock or whatever the fuck with a sheep with a penis as thte only frame and then their little posse will fiven the bastard until tom is forced to concede the money to them which in turn will singlehandedly keep their kiddypornmagazine alive

Thats nasty... and did you enjoy the few minutes it took you to draw the penis?

I hope LegendaryFrog isnt submitting... he'll win every award possible just based on his name.
I'm guessing it is based on score... because that is what it seemed like for the halloween contest a while back....
SCORE WOULD JUST BE STUPID! It wasnt done on score last year was it?

HERE IS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION: HOW ARE THE SUBMISSIONS JUDGED FOR PRIZES?
Tom said:
"Scoring will play a large role, but ultimately the winners will be picked here in the office. The results should closely reflect the scoring order, but can differentiate.
-Tom"
There you go...
Good luck!!!
Jezh guys, two big posts in the last couple of days and NO feedback to my responses what so ever. I am really starting to feel neglected here...
@LUIS:
Controversial art here, i will go over it though. I know the thighs were made big on purpose, but those are huge! Please make them a tad smaller if possible. Also I think the dick (lmao) is to far right and to far up. This is nit picking but details like these make the movie complete. Other than that it seems swell, -you may wanna add a nose though, lmao.
@MOMO-THE-MONEY:
That's not even pixelated, i can tell you made that on flash so fail. Even on top of that that sprite is terrible. Id your entry is going to look like that, do yourself the favor and don't enter. That's if your going for the cash rewards, if your making one just for fun, knock yourself out.
My two cents

I just watched it now. I really liked it actually, some of the artwork resembled alot of Luis's work. Like the character design for Nene, and the dark gray outline for the characters. I really liked it though. Gave a nice Pico feel to it.

It was... ok... Nothing special, graphics were good, but the pacing was horrible, made it hard to watch! It was still enjoyable though, had a nice feeling to it!

It seemed that the guy traced Nene from one of Luis's movies though. That was ticking me off a bit since you could totally tell. His original Pico's ear was all deformed, than in another note Nene looked perfect. She didn't move much either, and that's why I think it's a possibility she was traced.
She seemed "too good" for that guy's ability to draw natural characters rather than his original stick figures. After watching it over, I noticed alot of problems. Especially the massive amounts of filters, lagging the whole movie up. I think filters really mess up a movie and make it look screwed up, it's okay to have a filter here and there -- but continuously that's when it gets out of hand. Especially MASSIVE BLUR effects. It hurts my little eyes.

My movie utilises ALOT of filters, but it still works fine... You just gotta know how to optimize aswell... Also... He copied the weed rolling EXACTLY the same as Luis... lol
At least he has a role model...? lol
@TIM:
So? That doesn't meant I can't post suggestions.
@MOMO-THE-MONKEY:
No, it's still crap either way. Pico's hair doesn't look a thing like that.
@THEMOVIEBULLETPROOF:PICO'SSCHOOL:
First things first, you started off with about 5 intros which were just annoying. There is a 'goto menu' button which just takes you to the first intro. Although your first introduction was cool, the point is all those intros were not necessary. Your stick man... they are a copy off of Jase and Jimmy (I think). Don't deny it either, I know your are aware of master_samus's work I checked out your profile. I hate how you didn't even bother to put hair/hat on your stick guys in a back view. Also your voice acting was comical, it was so bad/corny it was good. So there's a good point... Also you copied the whole weed part straight off from Luis, and that lighter is gigantic. Also you don't have much control with the line tool I noticed it is used very sloppy in many places. The rat was a copy of luis's style with the grey outline, which doesn't even say consistent (I see some black.) The whole "Awwwwwww poor wittle wat want some weeeed?" Was just not funny and terrible. Also the stick man with hair's, hair is terrible. you gave him a side burn on one side, but not the other... The whole "this smells so much ima faint" was actually well done though. 2nd good point of your movie. I was so corny it was delighting. Also your lip sync is sh*t, but I'll let it pass... 3rd good point of the movie is how you can get away with drawing one head and using it for the whole movie with your stick men. Just tween/mask it around the circle. Neat thinking. Although the stick man's eyes are no doubt another copy from Sam's work. The whole "oh goodie nap time" I saw that joke a mile ago. But the teacher lost her head was funny, so another good point there. Also your fbf when the stick man jumped in the room was tight. So there's another one, but you still have more bad points... ^_^. -Side note, whoever bought you flash 8 is a dumb ass. You abused the filters hugely! As for your Pico, it's a copy from luis's work. I like the gun though, but you obviously didn't draw it. As for the whole communists thing, that's actually pretty funny. I have no clue what happens next though, when he like pulls something out of his shoe and dies or something? Makes no sense. Also the whole getting past the bars thing was so corny it was awesome. Your static effect was also cool and how you made the entrance to the restrooms. Although your shat stank was done poorly. It should have faded it from right to left. The Barbie thing was terrible to not funny. I liked how you made your character the sh-t thrower though. The concept is actually pretty original. But your going to get a 0 for style for all the obvious tracing.. Also you need to improve your shape tweens please. They aren't bad but just messy, just like your line work. Also you don't know how to use layers to well... you made Pico's left foot the top layer when it should obviously be the bottom one. I don't think I like all the 'weed' humor though... Okay freeze frame... THAT NENE IS SUCH AN OBVIOUS TRACE I MEAN C'MON! YOU DIDN'T EVEN TAKE THE TIME TO REDRAW HER IN YOUR STYLE. -1 OVERALL FOR SURE RIGHT HERE. Okay moving on, don't use tween mouths. It just looks awful anyway you do it. If you can figure out how to use shape tweens right and stuff with your mouths that looks better. Also Nene's voice is AWFUL. also why does her mouth disappear when it fades to black? The lighter joke was super predictable but so well timed it was awesome. but I have to say overall your timing sucks. I can tell you made some movements longer just to make your movie longer. I've done that to, don't do it it just sucks. Also a whole another -1 off your review for the fart joke. Also i don't like how all of a sudden you decided to use lines to show movement at the very END of your movie... Stay constant. Your sound effect right before 6 months later is also terrible. I used it in a flash before, it's of poor quality. Well, I can give you points for originality for the teacher... You couldn't have traced him from anywhere... (I hope.) But again he's REALLY messy... You ghetto kids weren't bad either, a nice way to end your movie. But the whole ending joke was just lame. You credits were cool, but you were a little' bish to make me sit through all of them for not even an extra scene. ALSO, IT ISN'T EVEN PICODAY. A lil' early there bud. You should just wait until the official day actually comes next time.
Overall though, it wasn't a bad movie. It had it's moments and it's concept was neat. But I can't give you anything past a 6 for sure. For all the obvious stolen art work and what not. You have a long way to go but at least you've show you can animate half decent... So there's my two cents.

Now time to copy and paste this review to the submission it self! :D

Good stuff, though it lacks style to be excellent.
You might want to use AS to generate the TV noise or draw it with drawing object circles to optimize filesize.

A good point. I cant do action script for shit so can you plese tell me how?
Have an empty movieclip for where the noise is supposed to be and use:
var image = new flash.display.Bitmap (100, 100, false, 0);
attachBitmap (image);
onEnterFrame = function () {
image.noise (random (4570356), 128, 255, 1, true);
};
That should do it. ;P
