Scuba Steve Posted February 26, 2008 I just thought I would let people know what I plan to do for the Cacowards this year. Instead of keeping track of all the maps I play and rating them I am going to try something different. With the absence of /Newstuff I can't keep track of releases as well as I once could and, moreimportantly, it is too time consuming for me to try and play that many levels. This year, probably the final week of November, I will make a thread and ask people to list wads that THEY played this year that were great. I will play the suggested maps and then make the final list for the awards. I enjoy putting the Cacowards together each year, but I really need community help keeping track of all the releases so I don't miss anything important. This is just a heads up so everyone can keep a mental list of projects that interest them that they would like to see nominated at the end of the year. If something you liked doesn't get nominated, you can't blame me for not knowing about it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Reckoner Posted February 27, 2008 Aww...every time I play a newly released WAD that I think deserves consideration, I think to myself, "Hey, I hope someone remembers this WAD for the Cacowards!", but then I always just put it out of my mind with the confidence that good old Scuba Steve is keeping tally and will give it its deserts. Now I will actually have to keep note of the good WADs I play. 0 Share this post Link to post

GreyGhost Posted February 27, 2008 Should we also make a (hopefully shorter) list of wads that we think are terrible? 0 Share this post Link to post
Scuba Steve Posted February 27, 2008 You may certainly suggest terrible ones, too. 0 Share this post Link to post

Bank Posted February 27, 2008 Scuba Steve means quality. But yeah I think the idea's a good one. I'd personally nominate Enjay's latest release right off the bat. 0 Share this post Link to post
Scuba Steve Posted February 28, 2008 Not now, dunderhead. I'll make a post around the end of November asking for input. 0 Share this post Link to post
Stupid Bunny Posted February 28, 2008 I think I'll hop on the "where /newstuff?" bandwagon too. :P When he finally does get around to doing it, there should be a lot of stuff to go through. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dutch Doomer Posted February 28, 2008 Maybe creating an sticky thread where anybody can put an link to maps which they liked. 0 Share this post Link to post
GreyGhost Posted February 29, 2008 It's a temporary home for the '94 wads that Funduke keeps finding - should be renamed /oldstuff. 0 Share this post Link to post

Necros20 Posted February 15, 2009 I just have a question, why do you use a chaos serpent to represent the Mordeth award? 0 Share this post Link to post
Graf Zahl Posted February 15, 2009 If you had actually played Mordeth Ep.1 you'd know. 0 Share this post Link to post
The Ultimate DooMer Posted February 15, 2009 What about wads released in December? 0 Share this post Link to post
Graf Zahl Posted February 15, 2009 They got accepted the last 2 or 3 years, too so it should be ok. 0 Share this post Link to post

Scuba Steve Posted February 16, 2009 If it was released after December 11th, it qualifies for the next year. 0 Share this post Link to post
printz Posted February 16, 2009 Did that clause from thread's top apply in the end? I don't remember a thread spawning in November 2008 urgently asking players what have they played. I wouldn't trust it much, because only a handful may have played something big from that year, and possibly not even all. 0 Share this post Link to post
