Ironcoder \01 Format
Ironcoder v0 was a great success. Many cool submissions were entered. Egos of geeks were raised and then crushed. Much fun was had by all involved.
However the zeroth Ironcoder contest was a very ad-hoc thing, very much created on the spur of the moment. This time we’re trying to make the contest seem just a little bit more professional. This blog is the first step towards that goal.
Ironcoder v0’s winner Lucas Eckiels along with Gus Mueller, Daniel Jalkut and Jonathan Wight each have editor privileges for this blog and will all (hopefully) be posting more information about Ironcoder \01.
Additionally anyone creating a submission for Ironcoder \01 can request a temporary “contributor” user account and can make postings to introduce themselves and provide commentary during the duration of the competition.
We are also investigating how to submit the entries to the judge. For Iconcoder v0 we used an FTP dropbox, we have since moved services providers and an FTP dropbox may not be possible. A simple HTTP upload form might be sufficient (if anyone wishes to create a simple PHP HTTP upload script or can point us toward a suitable Wordpress plug-in please let us know).
