ALPHABATTLE!

Beta posting is up!

Use your analytic instinct to create a track for every letter in the Greek alphabet! The winner of each character will have his track featured on this page until the next contest! This is an intense contest, so prepare yourself well. Get acquainted with the Greek letters and their meanings on Wikipedia. Alternatively, use http://www.trismegistos.com/magicalletterpage/mystics.html#anchor1765961.



WINNERS:


Alpha: TBD.
Beta: WIP.

RULES:


Title should include the English name of the Greek letter (i.e., Pi Monster or IotaWub).

UPDATE: Alphabet must be done IN ORDER. I will determine when the next letter round should start.

Letters α (alpha) and Ω (omega) will be allowed the most time, as they are the capstones for the set.

All genres are acceptable, but some are more acceptable than others. ;)

Post one track per letter. Must be UNDER 2:00 minutes, so think hard about what to put in it.

Have FUN doing this! Encourage others.

After this is over, I’ll pick the top winners for each letter and feature them in a group called ΛLPHΛPΛCK as a set.



GREEK:


Uppercase: ΑΒΓΔΕΖΗΘΙΚΛΜΝΞΟΠΡΣΤΥΦΧΨΩ
Lowercase: αβγδεζηθικλμνξοπρστυφχψω

Note: The following are suggested cases of the letter you should use.

α: alpha [COMPLETE]
β: beta
γ: gamma
δ: delta
ε: epsilon
ζ: zeta
η: eta
θ: theta
ι: iota
K: kappa
Λ: lambda
μ: mu
ν: nu
ξ: xi
O: omikron
π: pi
ρ: rho
Σ: sigma
τ: tau
Y: upsilon
Φ: phi
X: chi
ψ: psi
Ω: omega



JUDGING:


Currently, I’m the only judge. That may change.

Originality: + for your stuff, – for loops and such. 70 points.
Creativity: + for lots of change, – for repeats over and over. 70 points.
Skill: Totally subjective, so I won’t judge on it.
Association: + for relating to the letter with track and title, – for not. 10 easy points.

Total: 150 points.

@XJM: Yes, the alphabet should be done in order. The contest hasn't started yet, but you can start on Alpha if you want.

I'll give it a shot. Do we have to start the alphabet in order? Been meaning to play with Greek at some point so this should be perfect.
