RE: The Cybird Thing.
tl;dr: I still like Cybird’s games and I think Cybird can turn this around. The issue of producing art for exposure is much bigger than Cybird, and it’s something that we should all reflect on.
Before I get into it, I know this is a divisive issue. Some of you are probably reading this right now and being like, oh my God, what does she want to fight about now? I am not trying to single out anyone or drown out opposing voices. But as a person who has been asked to work for nothing but ‘exposure’ (and many friends who have experienced the same thing), this issue is one that is very close to my heart. I’m going to compare Cybird’s, Okko’s, and Voltage’s contests and explain how and why I think Cybird’s current contest regulations are significantly different from those others.
Tumblr media
* Voltage retained the right to modify submissions for the sake of making them work with the avatar clothing system.
Prizes:
Every other contest came with a social media shoutout when the results were announced. I’m not even sure this qualifies as a prize. Cybird doesn’t specifically word it that way.
Public vs private submission:
If Voltage rips off any of the designs from their public contests, someone will notice and say something. If Cybird (or Okko) rips off a submission to their contest… You’re probably out of luck.
Design modification:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(original post on top, elaboration below)
These don’t match up. If Cybird doesn’t intend to modify stuff without the original artist’s input, why does this need to be in the T&Cs?
Contest requirements:
Cybird requires at least 3 characters in the design of your choice and specifically forbids textual submissions. When they elaborated on the requirements, they stated that stick figures were also fine and that they were looking for concepts, not polished art. And that, then, begs the question - why not text submissions? Of course, it’s Cybird’s contest, and they can set whatever requirements they want. But if it’s just the concept they’re looking for… Well. (I mean, I feel like ‘cute schoolboys!!!’ describes their example.) Okko had specific formatting and length requirements. Voltage required public submissions using the tags that they specified. 
Submission usage:
Cybird is using the winning submission for physical merchandise (what, specifically, they have not said). Cybird’s physical merch is usually sold at retail stores (e.g. Animate) and conventions, which presumably leads to a significant profit. Okko and Voltage used their winning submissions in-game or online only. There is a significant difference in the scale of usage that these designs will be/have been put to.
RE: Stuff that people have said
“The fanbase breaks the rules, so why can’t Cybird do what they want with this contest?”
Yes, the fanbase breaks the rules with regard to CGs/screenshots, and we should not encourage that. Don’t reblog or like those posts. Don’t interact with those users. Don’t reward them with the notes and attention they want. If Cybird feels that the amount of effort and money required isn’t worth it to go after these people, then they won’t, so we should make an effort on their behalf. That being said, two wrongs don’t make a right. I am very much not fine with people breaking the rules set by Cybird. I make an effort not to interact with those blogs. But I am also not fine with the way this contest is being run. It doesn’t have to be one or the other.
Fan art seems to be a grey area. I’m personally on the fence about it - I need more time to reflect on this issue.
“No prizes have been announced yet.”
The reason why people are objecting to this is because typically, contests and prizes are announced at the same time. It is not unreasonable to assume that there is no prize because there isn’t one stated. There is also no sign of a prize to be announced at some hypothetical later stage.
“The game is free, so you should be grateful for what you get!”
That’s their business model. That is how their business works. We get some free stuff, and we pay for some other stuff, if it looks good/we want to support the company/WE JUST WANT THE THING OKAY. Does our gratitude pay their salaries and bills? No. The juicier content is locked behind pay walls - that, and merchandise, is probably the bulk of where their money comes from. Does this mean that we should be okay with Cybird using fanwork without compensating the artist, whether in actual or in-game currency, when they’re using it for profit? I don’t feel that way at all.
“The staff are really nice!”
Yes, I agree. They are. But I feel that this is somewhat above their pay grade. I rather doubt that the staff who interact with us on a regular basis are authorized to create contests, regulations, and rewards on their own. I am not criticizing the staff. I am criticizing the company. There is a difference.
Now, if you feel that exposure is a sufficient reward for your time and effort, that is fine. For you. But trading exposure for art is a bigger issue than just you and I. It’s a practice that devalues art and insults the artist by implying that their work is not worth money. It is not uncommon for people, especially those who are just starting out on their chosen creative path, to get roped into exactly this. However, by doing so, they are allowing others to continue taking advantage of people in similar circumstances, and that is why I can never encourage someone considering it. This is a practice that people who work in creative industries have been trying to fight for years. Please, if you don’t understand why this is a problem, Google it. Talk to someone you know who works in a creative industry - art, music, wedding photography, whatever. Please understand that this is a problem that makes it difficult for people to support themselves by pursuing their passion. People shouldn’t have to be criticised for speaking up about this. It is bigger than just Cybird.
That said, I don’t think that Cybird is coming from a place of wanting to exploit their fans - but as it stands, I fear that this contest is exactly that. I believe that Cybird is fully capable of receiving criticism in the spirit that it has been shared in. I like this game. I support it. I have spent money on it. I want to be able to keep supporting them without the fear that they engage in a practice that has harmed me and my fellow creatives. I would love to see Cybird acknowledge that this is a problem that they hadn’t considered previously, and turn this around by offering an actual prize for this contest, even if it’s just in-game currency or the merch that the winning artist helped design. I cannot, in good faith, encourage anyone to enter with these current T&Cs, because it perpetuates the cycle of creatives being uncompensated for their work and the undervaluing of art.
Contest info: Cybird, Okko, Voltage Halloween, Voltage Goddess of War gacha (suspect that the T&Cs are incomplete, but I can’t find a full version online)

[section_title title=Classic PC Case Mods]
It is time to start showing off the cases that have entered the Modders Inc Case Mod Contest. As we get more entries in the contest we will add then, so make sure that you bookmark this page and check back often. What we will do is post them into the Division they have entered. This way you can judge what your competition is. I think EVERYONE should enter as it looks like we will be having a few “Custom Entry Prizes” to give away!
  Classic PC Case Mod: consists of any mod that is built from an existing retail PC Case. We do require at least 80% of the original case be used. If we deem that less than 80% of the original case was not used you will we moved to the Scratch-Build style.
My name  James Nickell as this is my computer case mod. About My Case – I built a Resident Evil 2 Remake in the Corsair 570x. Resident Evil was one of my favorite games growing up so when RE2 Remake was announced I started planning a build around it so I could play it on PC. Specs Asus Z390 Gaming H, Intel 9700k, 32gigs Corsair memory, Asus Strix 1080ti.
  [section_title title=Scratch Build PC Case Mods]
Scratch-Build PC Case Mod: consists of any mod built from anything else than a retail PC Case.
Mayhem Modz says Hello everyone this was my first scratch mod. it took a lot of work about 1 year, I started from a black hawk concept it seemed more appropriate, my construction elements were aluminum strips, steel sheets, some recycled parts of other houses, and a lot of plexiglass, I am proud to have made this work of art, all done love without the use of CNC or laser, all school Vecchia, I wanted to show that even if you do not have a CNC or cutting laser if you have a passion you can make a good pc case mod.
  My name is Björn Höjing Burle (BHB-Mods/Deriveh). I’m a Swedish modder and  I’ll be presenting my first custom-loop and my first scratch-build computer. This is my third modded computer since I got into modding as late as 2017. I got the idea to my build when I got home from Dreamhack Winter 2018 in Sweden, my wife wanted an iMac and I had just finished a modding project and look at all the great custom-loops on Dreamhack. Thus the idea to the iPreadator Powder was born. I decided I wanted to do a badass gaming PC, custom cooled on the backside of a 34″ monitor in an open industrial style case/frame.
I spent just over a year completing this build. When I began I basically just had the hardware from my old computer. I didn’t even have a 34″ monitor. My budget was quite strained as well so I some of the time it took went into looking for used parts, thus most of the parts of my build is used and not newly bought. The first part I got was the monitor, I had to do some research of which stands might be able to hold the weight of 25kgs as well as look alright to the industrial look I wanted, thus I chose the Acer X34.
The main plate of which all the components are placed in a 5mm thick aluminum plate at the exact same specifications as my Acer X34P monitor. I had to bring in help from a friend with an engineering company to manage to bend the plate at a 6-degree angle because of the thickness of the plate, I could not do it myself. I then used a jigsaw, hand files, sandpaper, polish, and other handheld tools to get all the shapes and finish done. I also painted the monitor white, ground down the pain of the monitor stand, and brushed it.
  David Engelhardt & Tony Hall have this to say about the case mod they entered. The case inspiration came from the name of the PC Shop I work at, Blue Candle Computers, and the fact that we could not find where anyone had done a Candle computer. The outside is a plastic shell with a spray foam top. The top was shaped and covered with liquid rubber. Then the whole thing was covered with 7 pounds of wax. We did have it QuakeCon 2019,as it was my BYOC PC, but we didn’t think about entering the MOD contest. All of that is mounted inside on a custom Plywood Base.
For the last year, I have kept it on display at my shop and even use it to run a monitor on the front counter as an example of a Custom Computer. For BYOC 2019, the computer was always running, unless we were sleeping. The wax did not melt. In the last year, the wax shell that holds the flame up has bonded with the wax below.
  David Cathey, tell us about your Scratch Built Computer… About My Case: Leaf Me Alone is a scratch build case using walnut and aluminum and has a nature theme. The idea was for a case that was less ‘gamer’ and more furniture piece that could be placed on a table and shown off. Starting with the interior, the tray is aluminum with the motherboard and a vertical GPU bracket on one side and brackets for the PSU and drives on the other. It is finished with a sanded pattern to give it a more wispy, natural look to go match the theme and provide some more visual interest. The main focal point of the interior is the wiring. All the wiring has been sleeved in a green paracord with the 24 pin and GPU power cables going through the tray to create a leaf pattern. The exterior of the case is a clamshell design, with aluminum on one side finished with light green paint and the other side is solid 3/4″ walnut. A leaf motif (walnut leaves to match the wood) was carved into the walnut and then filled with epoxy containing a green metallic flake. To help get some air to the components, vents were cut into the walnut side panel in the shape of leaves to stick to the theme. The walnut is finished with tung oil and then a polyurethane to protect the wood. The exterior halves attach to the tray with aluminum extensions, the top is open to aid cooling, and then the tray sits on a walnut base, finished to match the walnut of the shell. The base includes the power and reset buttons, also made of walnut to blend into the base.
This case is designed to last like good furniture so no major modding was done to the hardware so upgrading in the future would be easy. The case supports ATX and mATX motherboards, standard 2 slot GPUs, a standard ATX PSU, and 3 2.5″ drives, though the GPU, PSU, and drives are on brackets that can be replaced if necessary. The one-piece of hardware modding was fitting the Cooler Master Geminii M4 cooler on to the chip. A new mounting bracket for AM4 had to be created since the Geminii M4 doesn’t support AM4. This was done by replacing a few parts of the cooler with custom aluminum brackets and using a Corsair backplate for mounting.
Dante Mutti is going to tell us about his High Voltage PC Case Mod
About 11 years before I started this mod, I saw a vintage Oscilloscope in a flea market and I immediately fell in love with the design. I purchased one soon after, with the intent to build a mod, and it sat in my garage for over a decade. Fast forward to 2018 and this project finally began to come to life.
The power supply is by far one of my favorite parts of this mod. I purchased an old residential power switch housing at an estate sale with the intent of using it as the power supply shroud for my mod. Inside, it will house an EVGA SFX 650W Power Supply. The holes were cut for the vent, power switch, and the fan intake. Rubber u-channel molding was used to make the edges look cleaner and more professional. I made Glow-In-The-Dark paint by mixing Matte Medium with Glow Pigment Powder. I then painted the inside of the main case with it, so that the UV lighting inside the case would charge up the glow particles in the paint, and when you turn off the lights or the PC, the inside of the case would remain glowing.
On the side of the case, I added a “Big Red Button” that serves as the Power Button for the PC. I also added 2 industrial On/Off switches that control the lighting. The left toggle switch turns on and off the white interior light of the power gauge. The right toggle switch turns on and off the UV lighting inside the case. The front of the Oscilloscope had a red light that turned on when you powered on the scope. I wanted to retain this functionality and have the Oscilloscope’s Power Light be the Computer’s Power Light as well, which I achieved by wiring an LED to this location from the motherboard’s power light header.
[section_title title=id/Bethesda Themed PC Case Mods]
id/Bethesda Themed PC Case Mod: consists of any mod style (classic or scratch) but must be themed about id Software/Bethesda or any of their games (old, current, or upcoming).
My name is Rob Wilson and my case is themed after the Khajiit, the race of cat-people in The Elder Scrolls Online. Its most noticeable feature is that it is covered in faux snow leopard fur. The front panel is 3D printed and includes fan grills made from the Khajiit emblem. The top panel is also 3D printed and includes a fan grill made from a Khajiit shield. Both panels are held on by magnets, which allow them to be easily removed for fan cleaning or other maintenance. The inside of the case is hand-painted and then hand glazed with iridescence to make it shimmer like a moonstone, the Khajiit crafting style material. The computer is cooled by a custom loop that is filled with a clear liquid similar in appearance to the moon sugar drinks often enjoyed by the Khajiit. The custom loop includes a magnetic 3D printed housing which allows the reservoir to mount horizontally, and permits easy installation or removal for maintaining the loop. All 3D printing is my own design and fabrication

ZEDD ECHO TOUR 2018
Tumblr media
EDM powerhouse Zedd returns to Manila for a one-night-only show on April 13 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, brought to you by Random Minds Inc. in partnership with Karpos Multimedia.  Tickets are now available at all Ticketnet outlets or log on to  www.ticketnetonline.ph or call 911-5555.  Ticket prices are as follows: VIP STANDING – Php 5,090, BOX – Php 4,030, UPPER BOX – Php 2,015.  For up-to-the-minute news and information on Zedd Echo Tour 2018 be sure to log-on to www.facebook.com/RandomMindsInc and follow on instagram via randomminds
 Born Anton Igorevich Zaslavski in Russia and raised in Kaiserslautern, Germany, Zedd began playing piano at age 4. “Both my parents are musicians and from a very early age they encouraged me to make classical music,” Zedd recalls. “I kept up with that until I was about 12 when my brother and I started a rock band. From there I went in a more post-hardcore/ metal direction and really developed my sensibilities as a drummer — so I was sort of constantly moving into different styles of music.” Upon hearing Justice’s album † in his late teens, Zedd was inspired to try his hand at electronic music and learn the art of production. By 2010 he’d won two Beatport remix contests and soon started drawing rave reviews for his remixes of tracks by the likes of Skrillex, The Black Eyed Peas, Fatboy Slim, and Lady Gaga.
 This theme of experimenting with different musical styles has remained a constant and proven successful for Zedd, who teamed up with Alessia Cara for his latest single “Stay” and landed his first #1 at Top 40 Radio in the U.S. Heralded as a "bright and buoyant banger" by Entertainment Weekly and "super infectious and immediately likeable” by Billboard, the certified platinum single (U.S.) has garnered over 620 million streams digitally and reached the top 10 on Billboard’s Hot 100. Zedd also took to the stage with Alessia on the season finale of “The Voice” to perform “Stay” to an audience of over 9 million viewers. Zedd explains, “I’m always working on bigger projects, but for the moment this track isn’t necessarily part of anything bigger than just me making music. I’m trying not to look at genres, and the songs I’ve been working on are really all over the place – from a complete chord progression to “Stay” to a song that I never would have done before. I just like to close my eyes and make the music that I want to hear.”
 It is with this spirit of openness and inclusion that Zedd organized a fundraising concert with 100% of its profits benefitting the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The concert, aptly named WELCOME!, was started as a call-to-action on Twitter in response to the immigration ban and resulted in a lineup including Bebe Rexha, Camila Cabello, Daya, Halsey, Imagine Dragons, Incubus, Machine Gun Kelly, Macklemore, Miguel, Mija, Skrillex, Tinashe and Zedd. These musicians span the spectrum of musical genres, emphasizing that everyone is welcome. The impetus behind the fundraiser is near to Zedd’s heart; Zedd confides, “As an immigrant myself I feel the need to stand up against the tyranny that threatens our basic human rights. I'm thrilled to come together with all of these incredible artists to help raise money for the ACLU, an organization that works daily to defend and preserve the rights guaranteed to us by the constitution.”
 Zedd released his debut album Clarity after signing with Interscope Records in 2012 — the same year he found himself featured in the New York Times, who praised him as an EDM prodigy and noted that “his talent is extraordinary.” The albums’ title track shot to No. 2 on Top 40, nabbed a Grammy Award, and sold 2.6 million copies. Platinum follow-up hit “Stay The Night” (ft. Hayley Williams of Paramore) racked up more than 400 million streams and won the 2014 MTV Clubland Video Music Award.
 For True Colors (2015), the follow-up to Clarity, Zedd made a point to limit his listening to artists from outside the realm of electronic music, such as Radiohead, Queen, and King Crimson. “I get a lot of inspiration from artists who work in genres whose rules are very different from my own genre. It really helps me break down the boundaries of what can be done with things like song structure, melody, and rhythm.” While each track on True Colors is indeed a world unto itself, complete with gorgeously crafted textures and mesmerizing rhythms, the album also bears a classically melodic sensibility that hints at the simplicity of its origins. “For this album I wrote every song on piano, because I wanted the core of each one to have a timeless feel to it,” says Zedd.
 The album was a resounding success, debuting at No. 4 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart, No. 1 on the Dance/Electronic Albums chart, and in the Top 10 in eight countries worldwide. True Colors also earned Zedd a 2016 Billboard Music Award for “Best Dance Album.” Its lead single “I Want You to Know” (feat. Selena Gomez) spent four weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart and has been certified Platinum, while the second single, “Beautiful Now” (feat. Jon Bellion), has been certified Gold. In support of the album, Zedd hit the road for a 53-date global headlining tour, which included shows at New York City’s Madison Square Garden and Los Angeles’ Staples Center.
 True Colors was launched with an ingenious series of fan-only events that brought the album’s central theme to life by connecting each song on the album with a specific color. “I hear color in all the music I write and for this album, I wanted to really focus in on that concept and take it to a new level,” says Zedd. Dubbed the #ZeddTrueColors campaign, the events included outings in Joshua Tree, Alcatraz, and the Grand Canyon.
 Fans were taken to these color coded locations, got to spend time with Zedd, and heard the new tracks before anyone else. For the finale at the Empire State Building, Zedd took over for an acoustic performance of “True Colors,” accompanied by a majestic light show bathing the top of the building in ever-changing pulses of color. These events were captured in the True Colors documentary, which also explored the process behind the music through high-voltage performance footage and revealing interviews with Zedd, his family, and industry supporters. The film premiered at The Los Angeles Film Festival.
 In 2016, Zedd teamed up Aloe Blacc to create “Candyman” — a modern reinterpretation of Sammy Davis Jr.’s 1972 classic “The Candy Man” that kicked off M&M’s 75th anniversary celebration, attracting over 40 million impressions nationally and selling 1.5 million copies. Over the summer, he followed up with “Starving,” the smash with Hailee Steinfeld and Grey that broke the top 10 on Top 40 radio and racked up over 240 million plays on Spotify alone in just four months.
 With the success of his collaborations like “Clarity,” “Stay The Night,” “Starving,” and most recently, 2017’s “Stay,” Zedd’s current single “Get Low” with Liam Payne lends to a more urban sound and continues to dominate the global charts.
