MERRY TEMPMAS EVERYONE!
It's that time of the year again!

We are excited to begin our 2016 tempmas competition! This year we've got an amazing prize for you: a brand new Nintendo Switch console up for grabs! Of course we haven't got our hands on a console yet so it'll actually be a preorder, but still!

So what will you have to do to enter this year? The theme is wide and leaves a lot of room for imagination: Create a short Tempmas-themed video (up to 1 minute long)

Now please carefully read the rules below if you wish to enter:
Who can enter: any registered GBAtemp user, new or old. One entry per user. No geographical restrictions.
Enter before: the 31st at 12PM (noon) UTC
Video format restrictions: video must be up to 1 minute long. Shorter is OK. Longer will be rejected. How to enter: upload your video to YouTube, DailyMotion or Filetrip and post the link in this thread.
Content restrictions: no nudity, violence, pornography, anything illegal, or against regular forum rules.

There will be a public vote (only open to certain member groups though! if you register now just to vote it's already too). Make sure to log on to GBAtemp on the first week of January to cast your vote.

Now, use your imagination to come up with something that will put a smile on everyone's face! The video can be digitally edited, created from scratch on a computer, or simply recorded with a camera (ie. record yourself singing a Tempmas song... record yourself baking a Tempmas cake... etc.).

Have fun making your video and have a very merry Tempmas!
The GBAtemp Team

clickbait title, i wanted a switch, not to learn how to make videos
jk, seems like a great contest for people who aren't me.
Good luck to all who enter and Merry Tempmas to everyone!

 

[Sonic Angel Knight]

Umm so what exactly should the video be about? Do we have to be in the video? can it be a game play clip? Is the only qualifying rule it must put a smile on someone face? Or is there a theme, where is the challenge? I need regulations and answers SIR!

 

[ElyosOfTheAbyss]

The video should be about the Temp, the holidays, and gaming. The rest is up to you.
You don't have to be in the video, we understand there are privacy concerns.
It can be a gameplay clip if the game / characters / level has been edited to reference Tempmass. Or use gameplay videos to make a Tempmass-themed YouTube poop.
Putting a smile on the faces of this bunch is challenging enough as it is. No need to limit you further.

EDIT: Don't hold me by that, though, Costello will append the official rules.

And the video has to be about something? What are the rules about that? What if I just record my dogs for one whole minute?

Only if they have little GBAtemp hats on

 

[grubbymitts]

Is it Tempmas already?

Well, here's something I have been working on for a week or so for no other reason than I wanted to. So for GBATempmas I present: The Futile Pursuit of Wealth.
