[edo494]

only 3 polled spell packs, but there are 4 maps inside the zip(The one not in poll is Elementos - Dark Elements Pack.w3x).

 

[Tank-Commander]

That's Loner-Magixxar's spellpack - the one that the OP says is disqualified

 

[fladdermasken]

Jesus fucking Christ. I go on a three day break and people start acting out like they ate a fist of fly agaric and replaced their skin with sheer fabric. Get a fucking grip, damn it!

Thread closed temporarily so I can sort this out when I get back.

Oh yeah, also heads will roll. I am not even kidding.

Kisses.

Okay. Shit flushed and archived. Some neg rep may still be thrown out in the coming days after I take a good time reading through it all. But overall it's a dead deal, and I don't feel like beating a dead horse. If I put all split posts on a cleverly designed pair of scales weighing stupidity and overreaction on equal footing I think it would come out pretty much even anyways. Also, stop posting fucking popcorn posts whenever there's drama. It's not clever, it's not witty, it's been done a fucking thousand times and it floods the thread like a wildfire. I DO NOT APPRECIATE GOING THROUGH THAT SHIT WHEN PASSING JUDGEMENT UPON OTHERS.

peece owt and prosper.

Carry on.

If choosing between Tank and bowser, Tank has good eyecandy on his spells, but his coding is quite complicated to understand, lots of configurables is good but many function calls aren't very good solution (most of them can be defined by global variables which will be better). Bowser has average effect minimalistic style of spell decoration, but his mechanics and code seem to be understood better.

 

[Tank-Commander]

most of them can be defined by global variables which will be better

Making them udg_ variables (appearing in the vairable editor) would be worse and using a globals block isn't an option when using pure JASS - I'm using constant functions because they're literally the best option pure JASS has for the job (Though I'm aware they make the code get pretty large, hence why I wrote my readme as I did)

 

[bowser499]

@Tank, actually globals block could make all that code tons readable. Though, it's HELLot of code you have there. It's like twice the code I have for a boss in my map! 0.0

 

[Loner-Magixxar]

I may have voted out of sense at that time but now that I've taken a good look at all the works, I see that my vote was correct. Bowser499 has done an efficient and to-the-point and charming job there. There is no overdoing in his work.
I'm rooting for bowser499.

 

[Tank-Commander]

Globals block isn't an option because you can't have them with normal JASS - feel free to try it yourself, it doesn't compile XD

 

[Almia]

Looks like im gonna be the bronze medalist T^T

 

[Kyrbi0]

Good luck to all contestants.

Big trouble came, and after a while this whole thread was filled with insults and stuff... kinda.

Then it stopped.

After testing all of the 3 spells pack, its time for me to vote

Tank Commander have nice spell effects, the combo of those spells are nice as well, just the code give me an headache when i viewing it...

Bowser499 spell is much simpler, coding is clean enough and spells are all combo together without separating combo like Tank Commander's one.

Almia spell only contains passive spells (Its unfinished?), and your are using soul as the idea of spell (Bowser499 copy you?:O) and i don't know how to comment your spell...


Overall for me bowser499 suit more to the combo theme, if it is separate combo theme i will vote for Tank Commander XD

 

[Almia]

It is finished.

 

[Tank-Commander]

Yeah Almia's is finished - there was no qualifier that you couldn't do an all-passive combo set, also yeah both of them have a pretty similar basis but I imagine that's more to do with coincidence than intention

(...) combo theme, if it is separate combo theme (...)

Those are both the same thing in this contest theme - There was also no qualifier that you had to make everything combo with everything (though I don't really see the destinction you're making, given that all my abilities do combo with every other ability, particularly the ultimate which is the big combo) i.e. there would never be a "seperate combo theme" given that it is already included in the "combo theme" you could easily make the opposite critique that mine lacks dependancies on other abilities to function (and thus picking the wrong ability won't make a level 1 hero useless)

 

[bowser499]

Bowser499 copy you? :O

I swear I haven't copied Radamantus, I even haven't thought about it. I just seen the topic and the idea boomed right to my head.

 

[Almia]
