Competition winners
Another year gone, just like that. You might have heard the news already, but if you haven’t, SMASH! is moving to the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre next year! To have come from our humble Roundhouse roots to Sydney’s premier convention venue in five years is really something, and we look forward to seeing you at the biggest SMASH! ever next year.
Every convention has its ups and downs, the good and bad, and that’s why we’d like to hear your feedback! Got an idea for next year and want to share it? We’ve got that covered too!
• SMASH! Ideas – Post your ideas, comment on others, or vote for what you like the sound of. No idea is too crazy (except the ones we don’t have money for)
• SMASH! online survey – How did you hear about us, and how do you rate this years events? These exciting questions and more are just waiting for your (multiple choice) answers!
Home Made Hype Winners
After much ooh-ing and ahh-ing over the fabulous entries for the Home Made Hype competition, we’ve finally decided on the winners; First place went to Sugarplumneko’s “Veritas“, and second place went to Elaine-sensei’s “Identity“. We want to thank everyone who entered, and we hope you had fun with the competition! We’d also like to thank Smith Micro and guest artists Endling and Ms. Rosek for contributing to the exciting prize packs (and helping us pick the winners). There were a lot of great entries so be sure to check them out in the competition folder.
SMASH! Competition Winners
Of course, there were plenty of on-the-day winners at SMASH!, so we want to congratulate all the contestants who fought hard and came out victorious in our many competitions.
