Nevermind that. I've concluded that hawk900 is incapable of simple addition

Hmmm giving GUI a maximum of 4 points would equal 2 points in the spell section = lacking........
Seriously, this is ridicolous.
We have 16 GUI spells with a 5/5 rating at the moment, about 84 with a 4/5 or higher rating and about 148 GUI spells with a 3/5 or higher rating.
So basically, I ask myself, why GUI only gets smth like 4?
I'd understand a cap of 6 or something, but 4 aren't even 50%, so seriously, what the hell?
At last. It has ended. Congrtas to the winners.
By the way. You misspelled my name

Originality: 4/5 - thx.
Balance: 3/5 - too high I think.
Coding: 2.5/10 - that's correct.
Theme: 7.5/10 - I think I deserve more here.
Total: 17/30 - Fairly good result for a piece of GUI.
I thought that was fairly obvious that efficiency is included in coding... although it says Coding and not Efficiency.
Well yeah it is obvious, but when I read Coding, I thought it'll be rating considering which coding method was used (i.e. GUI or Jass or vJass) and not purely by efficiency. Get my point?Eccho said:I thought that was fairly obvious that efficiency is included in coding![]()
Well as expected GUI was to be downrated... although it says Coding and not Efficiency. I expected Kingz to win, but congrats to Schurke =) it was a matter of 0.5 points![]()
How leak free, efficient, and well structured the coding of the map is
. So, i can see them complaing with a fair aspect over this. ;)
See... you just got the just mentioned pro-GUI'er pissed![]()
Is it not possible that spells made in GUI are usually made by people with less experience than someone that uses vJass? Is it not possible that because of this spells, made in GUI do poorly in spell contests where the better coders just happen to use JASS? I don't know much about our coding community, and I could be entirely wrong, but it's a possibility.
But seeing as the contest does not support the use of systems, we obviously don't care about good coding anyway.
GUI is another language of programming in the Warcraft 3 environment.
There's a difference between good code and lazy code. Using caster systems = lazy code.
As far as I know, there is many cases where people say GUI are not consider as programming language.
Usually yes, but not always. Some of the GUI submissions were made by experienced map makers.Is it not possible that spells made in GUI are usually made by people with less experience than someone that uses vJass?
I won two mini-spell contest with GUI spell, while many of my opponents had jass spells. Not that my spells were something spectacular, but the others lacked creativity and even the coding wasn't that good (no offence). So jassers are not necessary better coders. It's about the one behid the monitor, not the used language.Is it not possible that because of this spells, made in GUI do poorly in spell contests where the better coders just happen to use JASS?
Ok I will not begin a conversation here, cause I know how long it could be and how spammy (you know, each one will manifest his aspect over the languages and in the end what we will manage to do is manifest out knowledge, becoming some know-at-all guys).
I'll tell you this though: If a spell can work out of triggering via GUI or a system can work out via GUI, it means that GUI is a language. Apart from that, the first thing you can see, when opening the editor is GUI interface. To Jass something, you'll need to delete stuff. Plus, I don't even understand your attitude, when your submission had GUI in it. Well, I guess it was not such a serious submission (and you know it), but even if you had just one ability coded, why didn't you make efficient enough, by making it Jass-coded? I don't get also why do you keep reminding people the rules with such sarcasm, when you used GUI on your own.
Anyway, it seems that GUI is the first language someone becomes familiar with; it's the default language. The fact that some people were so hardened over warcraft 3 environment and extended its capabilities with Jass enhancing features, I repeat myself, It doesn't render GUI language a no, neither an anti-pro. Since GUI clearly does its job, it's something no one must doubt.
Now, telling me that some people state GUI is not a programming language (which is something too general, i spoke of the warcraft 3 environment only), is just out of place; I've heard many rumors myself, I don't spread them all over, without any points.
That's all; didn't mean to offend you or something, I just hate this all-over underestimating part of GUI.
