CURRENT PRIZE POOL AS OF 9.3.2024 - 1920 DOLLARS

MADNESS DAY is coming up, this september 22nd, 2024! One short month away! I’ve seen a handful of trailers for things to come and honestly I’m pretty excited about it. Last year’s Madness Day was absolutely insane, and it’s looking like you guys won’t be letting up on the intensity, at all.

As usual I’ll be on my twitch channel, streaming during Madness Day. Last year it took two 8~ hour streams, and I imagine things won’t be much different this time around. So count on a second stream on the 23rd (where I will also be sharing MC12, if I can get it done in time!)

Madness Day entries come in the flavors of Animations, Artwork, Music, and sometimes a game or two will show up! As usual, this year I will be hosting a prize pool for Animations, Artwork and Music. I’ve got a judge panel made up of Myself, Miss Ebola, Uncle Funkle, Vix, DETH, Isolave, Zepumpkineater, and Cheshyre to figure out how to divvy up the pool. I’ve started off the pool with 500 bucks, and if you’re interested in contributing to that you can do so at this link here; https://ko-fi.com/krinkels

In addition to the cash, I’ll be throwing in a handful of plushes I got lying around! First place entries for Animation, Music, and Artwork will get their pick of the pile as I got a few spares of all the Makeship plushies. On top of that I’ll be throwing posters into the mix, too. Posters, Plushies, and Cash. Prize amounts, as it stands right now are;

Prize Pool: 200 (updated to 1920 total, placement cash to be updated)

2nd; $65 + poster

These amounts will be updated periodically as donation to the ko-fi are accepted. Thank you all for the show of force. You guys are the reason this fire keeps burning, and I appreciate all the fuel you've thrown onto it. It's unreal, and it's not something I take lightly. May this year bring a Madness Day to remember.

Submission rules/guidelines;

• We can only regard entries submitted on Sept 22 through the end of sept 23 at the very LATEST. That's a 48 hour window but I have to implore that you land it on Sept 22 to be easier to find and showcase. Things tend to get lost in the chaos and arriving late makes it rough.
• In the event of a collab placing, all winnings will be sent to the collab organizer for them to distribute as they see fit.
• Music submissions can only be judged as individual songs. Soundscapes or Albums should be parsed/broken down into their individual tracks so that judging can be done on a individual basis.
• All winnings will be distributed via Paypal.
• In order for us to find you, please tag your submission with #MadnessDay2024, this is very important!
• YOWO - You Only Win Once. A person can post multiple entries across every category, but can only win placement once.
• It should go without saying, but just in case; post it here on Newgrounds!
