Guest Fanatic Posted November 17, 2000 Yeah, I agree. I was confused by the rules, and I made wrong level. After the thing is released, I would like to resubmit my level. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest cocoon Posted November 17, 2000 It is definately not Ling's fault that the release is now, more some of the judges (including me), playing all maps and judging them has been quite a task and sometimes school for example has to go before this contest. Such reasons has pushed this releasedate forward a bit, but I can assure everyone that Linguica has worked perfect on this and has not caused the slightest delay. Thanks Ling 0 Share this post Link to post
KinkaJoy Posted November 17, 2000 Ling probably isn't uploading it now because he thinks everybody should get it at the same time, and not miss the announcement somehow. I can't wait until Sunday. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted November 17, 2000 I knew doom tools suck, but that it takes several weeks to put together a wad with no new textures or anything, after the votes are in... dang ling you look like the american "government". I hope the wad lives up to its hype, coz sure as hell that's the aspect of the wad you put most effort into. Timeline: 8/22/00: Contest starts 9/1/00: I send out the first batch of WADs to be judged 9/14/00: I send out the second batch of WADs to be judged 9/19/00: I send out the third batch of WADs to be judged 9/22/00: Contest ends 9/23/00: I send out the fourth and fifth batches of WADs to be judged 10/31/00: The judges finally complete their judging 11/1/00: I decide the top 32 WADs 11/2/00: I tell the top 32 people that they are in the megawad and wait for all of them to respond with level names and descriptions 11/9/00: The last person sends in their level name and description 11/13/00: I finish the text file for the WAD 11/16/00: I announce the release date Yeah, I sure was slacking there. 0 Share this post Link to post

kristus Posted November 17, 2000 Ok. since I'm gonna miss this release party that I wanna tend to very much. I'd like to have a log file saved for dowload. What do you say about that. Good idea? I think so. 0 Share this post Link to post
stphrz Posted November 17, 2000 Is it ok for me to upload my level to cdrom.com then? I didn't get emailed so... I don't even know if you got it or not. What do you have planned for the remaining levels? 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Medieval_Gnome Posted November 17, 2000 Unless the IRC server suddenly doesn't require an IDENT, I won't be able to join it. (cursing: damn firewall) 0 Share this post Link to post
Risen Posted November 17, 2000 I'm going to try to be there... (Under normal circumstances it wouldn't be a problem but I'm going home then!) I agree the wait was long, but I also agree that it was necessary. Thanks for a great contest! You're doing a great job running this place, and I do appreciate it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest noway687 Posted November 17, 2000 How about a megamega wad of those which didn't place... that way we can all judge for ourselves...kinda.I'm sure there's some good stuff which did not place in top 32. (I didn't enter, I just play) 0 Share this post Link to post

ethh Posted November 18, 2000 why does a chaingunner appear on <i>three</i> of consecutives screenshots ?? DID LINGUICA MAKE A PACT WITH CHAINGUNNERS ???? 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Cephaler Posted November 18, 2000 because they are useful, design-wise. a well placed group of chaingunners can tear the living shit out of a careless player, but at the same time a chaingunner or two can really help a player as well..gotta keep in mind the fact that chaingunners shoot a lot of bullets, and it only takes one to piss a monster off 0 Share this post Link to post
