VBOTW #01 (Web Service API)

[NextGen1]

VBOTW #1 - API

I want to make this "Contest" as broad as possible to allow other members to have a chance against some of the more "experienced" members.

Basic Rules:

NextGen1 is not allowed to enter , I have expensive tools and a few other coders on my side, it wouldn't be fair.

Voting will be based on the overall functionality of the application as well as how "user friendly" the application is.

Unlike the other competitions on this forum, all applications will go up at the same time, there will be no pre submissions

Submit your application to Lolland Via PM/VM/Email and He will upload them for you.

All members will be able to vote.

You will not be permitted to Vote for your own application, if you decide to vote it must be for one of your competitors.

Any bribery of any sort will result in immediate disqualification.

Any Leeching or stealing of apps will result in a disqualification and also result in breaking the rules of this section and MPGH Mod staff will be notified where they can take any appropriate action.

If you plan to submit an application be sure it is "your application" myself and lolland will be very through with the applications to ensure safety and that the application is actually yours.
