Quoting CompyxSo, basically we'd be repeating old Horizon, Triad, Censor, Bones, Upfront etc, demos?
<cjam> looks at winning entry
But seriously, great work everyone.
I see Mixers point in that this was a competition where style was heavily rewarded (much as I'm impressed by the dxyccp in the winning entry), but I'm quite happy with that. I preferred the winning entry to the 2nd placed one too (and TBH I think Booze's other entry should've placed much higher than it did - that twister was gorgeous)
My only comment on the voting palaver is that if anything we should be discounting public votes, as there seems to be more peer pressure to vote everything an eight or higher, which leaves very little room for saying which of the top five or six entries you think should rate higher in the final rankings.
Sadly I didn't manage to make time to do my usual "rank every entry in a text file then dish out a few each of every possible score" so y'all are spared what some would call 'downvoting' from me this time :)
Thanks again for a great compo, Raistlin - hopefully I'll manage to cobble an entry together next time this theme is revisited. |

Quoting TrapI'm sorry that you are so full of envy of our skills, Mixer. I would much rather have seen a creative response than just trolling, but I guess you cannot do it - even though you are not a child, but (supposedly?) a grown-up. I feel sorry for you that you have nothing to give but hatred.
Yeah, do tell me you are making fun .. but no, it's not funny and everybody knows that your comments are just an outlet of bitterness that you cannot find anywhere to place except than to put down other people on the internet.
I truly feel sorry for you. Such a little man.
but hey! ... I might be wrong, but then you need to do some work on your written communication skills :)
wow Trap, your super negative and ad hominem attacks here make me think *you* need to do some work on your written communication skills :) |

You are right. I was out of Line. I am sorry and a bit embarrased about this.
Somehow it just really got to me.
Sorry about this, guys. I wasnt myself.
I will crawl back to my hole now. |

Ozi: reading up on the crash bug you’ve been seeing, I didn’t realise quite how complex your game was actually... neat stuff! Of course, the ghostbyte changes are the big factor here as you need to update those every line - easy to forget these things when just loosely looking at these releases. |

Also, Mixer, Oswald, apologies if things got a little heated yesterday. I get defensive of these things because I know how much some of us put into this hobby - and it can really hurt when people put that down. |
