Social Group / Starcraft II Comic & Crash & Project Spotlight

[Vengeancekael]

ʃ Social Group ʅ Ѻ Start: November 2012 Ѻ About: Organizes contests (Terraining, writing, modeling, etc.) + roleplaying Ѻ Past Events: The Mad King's Realm (Halloween) & Santa's Realm (Christmas) & Cupid & Mania (Valentine) ╙ Next: Help decide the group's next theme here!

ʃ Starcraft II Comic & HotS Crash ʅ Blizzard has published a neatly made comic called "(Kerrigan) Hope and Vengeance". Check it out, the 9 total pages are of quite fascinating quality! A lot of players are still experiencing a crash while playing the Heart of the Swarm campaign, even after the latest patch 2.0.6. Right now, a solution has been offered by one of the Blizzard developers!

ʃ Project Spotlight ʅ The Project Spotlight in the monthly news batches will no longer be set up by me: From now on, on the 18th of every month, a nomination thread is created in the Map Development forum. The community has the opportunity to nominate projects they deem interesting&active enough in it till the 2nd of the next month. Then the projects with at least 5 nominations will be added to a poll that will run for 2 days only. (2nd-4th of every month)

Yeah, join the fun in our social group! I'd still say next event should be Easter

But perhaps, let the Easter Bunny be the only idol this time - still with a good and evil side though, where the evil side must try corrupt the Easter Bunny into becoming an evil drug dealer, and the good side wants to keep him a candy dealer - or something x)

EDIT: 1100th post ^^

That comic was awesome though the writing in some places didn't fit I still enjoyed it. Also, the new Project Spotlight systems seems far superior. Kudos on that one.

I like the decission to go public with the project spotlight but you should open a discussion thread for the spotlights. The first question is already posted and I doupt that it is the last one.

Also the rule

Projects that have been uploaded to our Maps Section cannot be nominated.

seems a little bit too general because for example IID is already in the Maps Section but it is still in development. I suggest you alter the rule to

- Projects that have been released to our Maps Section cannot be nominated.

The word "released" indicates that the map is not in a beta stage anymore.
The IID-Team (as an example again) uses the Maps Section as a public beta test. In my opinion the existing rule is a strong limitation.

I can't open the link where you decide.

Perhaps,April fools will be nice
