Release id #150735 : I Am the Flashing C64 Cursor +D
The "discussion" in the comments section escalated quickly, so it was moved here, where it kind of belongs. The comment section should be about the release itself only, not the game that was cracked or philosophy about what should be released or not.

Whilst the heart of the release group might be in the right place. I think this might be a bit too much also (I respect we have our own ideas on what we should release and not release, with our own reasons).
I agree that a lot of people are unfortunately (in my view) favourable on this style (albeit people not from the cracking scene); I am curious on people *in* or have been in the cracking scene and their views, will they be as supportive? Possibly people do not want to rock the boat and keep their thoughts to themselves?
This could be a broader discussion for the forums: e.g. releasing games made by members of own group, releasing CSDb games (when and when not to). Releasing games code in Basic etc. Of course people can do what they want. We all have made errors in judgement, but how to get the quality/baseline tradition back?
I guess such a forum blog would be difficult, people may want to piss on each others shoes etc rather than getting back to oldschool (whatever that used to be).
Anyway, hoping not to have a heated discussion but a healthy debate.

This is not a "discussion" I am making a comment on the quality of this game and this release. It is my opinion, if you don't like it tough shit.

I don't agree, of course. It's a unique meta level take, and a cool nerdy game. But this "discussion" should move to the forum instead if you would like to continue. It seems more people are liking it, so your view is not universal, quite the opposite. If you have more to say about what we should do and not, please send a PM and I can ignore it in peace without disturbing the rest of the population.

I don't need to read the fucking manual, this is shit and not worthy of releasing.

This isn't even worthy of dinasours. Is this what the scene has come to? You should be ashamed of releasing this. |

First of all, I'd like to apologise for my attack yesterday evening. I regretted it afterwards. I was also glad to see it removed, as it's not good behaviour.
I do actually like Craig's entry and not just cos he's a friend, but because I think it's the most original entry.
My reaction was somewhat over the top and I was just seeing Fungus' posts as an overly negative attack. I feel if you don't like something, it's not necessary to exclaim it so overtly.
Anyway, in future, I shall try to be more 'grown up' and not react in such an immature manner. I guess it was a bad day at the office.
Again, my apologies. |

How about you restore the original comments, and only move the "discussion" ones instead of removing them all. |

Great idea on the small intro for 4k smaller games.
I agree. Comments on the fame should be restored. Over moderation there. |

I have no problem at all accepting that some of you think the game sucks. We all get that now. And we and many more think it's a cool game. It should have stopped there.
What is over moderation and not is not up to you to decide, JC. Not me either for that matter.
Just some morning thoughts. Now coffee, and real life. Have I nice day, y'all! |

Hedning I am just stating my view. Which is for me to decide. Ty. Fungus' comment was on the entry.
Regarding smaller games. Should the pts be lowered? Maximum length for intro for smaller games? |

I want all rels to be 202 blocks. The shorter the game, the larger the intro.
