    If you can show a completed build log, anywhere, I expect that's OK.

    Oh go on then, although the timing's pushing it a bit. The last one was a lot of fun, it'll be really interesting seeing what unexpected designs crop up this time round.

    Not for the competition but I have always thought it would be cool to put one in a NES. Just to see what people would say when the saw it :D

    Can you confirm that submitted designs are confidential?

    Absolutely. Only bit-tech and Intel will see them - we had planned to look at many of them in a future article but if you'd rather obstain that's okay too!

    Is it strictly one design per person?

    So if you don't have any previous builds you can't enter this competition? Is it possible that I do some kind of simple mod and still enter. This seem really cool and I want to try.

    I'd think Intel want to see that you can build and document it, I'm pushing-through my first documented build next week do I can enter.
    It's probably worth you entering, maybe if they like it enough...

    I went ahead and entered at the last minute. I had a few ideas but couldn't seem to get any of them to work. I don't expect the design I settled on to get picked :worried:.

    Well Shinji, If you come up with a better setup, and they chose you for the one you don't like, how can they stop you from doing something better?:naughty:

    My big problem was everything I wanted to try was sorta complicated and out of my comfort zone. I was worried it would be too much to attempt in a short time frame or if I overlooked something I would be screwed with a design that wouldn't work.

    I wonder when they'll announce their picks. I imagine it'll be a while with the holidays.
