Solo Mapping Competition #3 - Poll

[Berb]

Takes him longer to post a review than the game took to make, probably.

 

[Ardnived]

Her*


Yeah I agree with Amigurimi.

I would love a longer more detailed review, but it would be nice to know how you are progressing with them.

 

[real138]

if she's on such a *tight* schedule how can she just add a week to the contest and then takes 3 weeks to review...

 

[Pyritie]

she told me she missed her first deadline and is now going for the second

she also just moved, so that's taking up a lot of her time

 

[real138]

ah ok. hopefully now the contestants get a more detailed review.

 

[RED BARON]

Shame - hope she won't lose points for that and make it in time for the next one

 

[Amigurumi]

any news?

 

[Vengeancekael]

Yeah she should be finished soon ...

 

[Ardnived]

Has someone told you that, or are you just expecting because of the amount of time that has passed?

 

[real138]

Hopefully someone told him.... It has been over 4 months since this contest started and it was supposed to be a month long contest. Judging for 2 months is sorry but outrageous no matter if you work for Ubisoft or not. You make a commitment you finish it.

Can you please stop whining? The Racebuilding contest poll -not contest, poll- was initiated on 11-17-2009, 03:31 AM, but the results were delivered on 04-14-2010, 05:09 AM..

well, the thing is, that she wants to make a lecture for the winner, and
she has to do it within a set date.

.. and would you just stop pointing your finger at other contests? Such a long waiting time shouldn't be a common state at all.

 

[real138]

I was not whining. I'm not even in the contest so it doesn't matter to me. It's unfair to the contestants that they should have to wait so long for a "professional" who should have learned long ago about due dates. Yes wc3 may not be so important but a sense of urgency should be at hand at least since there are other people involved in the matter.
So what if that happened in another contest? that just shows how incompetent the judges were there.

And that is what De.Facto should reply.

 

[syltman]

This is rather lame, what the hell is she doing? It's a good thing I didn't bust my ass off for this contest in a month. It must be incredible disappointing for those who worked on the maps.

 

[Kingz]

I regret every minute spent into it to be honest.

 

[Avator]

I suggest we give her an ultimatum. This contest's judging has taken way too long and is far beyond tolerable.

If the judging is not done and the reviews with a final score for all the entries before May 1st, we find a new judge that will take over the work. That means everything but the lecture will be awarded to the winners.

 

[real138]

Not like she's here to answer. I guess she doesn't care about her assignment if it even exists. when was the last time she was even on?

[Ardnived]

I would rather wait than assign new judge, as long as she hasn't stopped working on it.


I hope she responds on here though.

Could somebody shove some peppers up her...
nose. And then tell her to get her lazy...
nose back into this thread an explain herself.

 

[real138]

sigh... glad i at least stopped halfway. Well she cheated in one contest and now she's wasted everyones time.

Pyrite i summon thy to tell us whats going on!!

 

[De.Facto]

Yesterday, the last time. I've already posted on her wall.

 

[Fussiler1]

Anyone realized that she might be very busy?

 

[VergilThazaar]

Anyone realized that she might be very busy?

I agree, nonetheless I still think she should at least give a sign that she's still on it, I mean not much, just a simple post of progress...

 

[Ardnived]

I also agree with Vergil and Fussler

 

[syltman]

Being busy is not an excuse, certainly not in this case.

 

[real138]

Would you tell your teacher that you were busy so you couldn't do something? Would you tell your employer that you were busy so you couldn't do a report due for an important business meeting with another company? It's not an excuse.

 

[RED BARON]

Crossing my fingers for the participants, would be a damn shame if this ended in a failure, especially since the reward was special for a Hive contest.

 

[Avator]

What he means to say is that if you say you're going to judge a contest, you have to keep your promise. She didn't found out last month that she suddenly had a job. She knew for a while and knew that this takes time. If she can't handle it, she never should have started it.

 

[real138]

pretty much what i said in previous post just didn't wanna repeat but ya thats what i mean.

 

[VergilThazaar]

I get what you mean...

 

[Darkness-4ever]

So what happened to this contest? Is anything going to happen?

 

[Avator]

Doesn't seem like anything will. It's dead as can be, and nobody can replace the complete prize. So we can either look for someone who will judge and give other other prizes (which I don't think anybody is interested in, since this place is dead), or every participant has wasted their time.

Shame, really.

 

[Amigurumi]

I think she doesn't care anymore about this contest.
I hope someone else will judge this one.

 

[Kingz]

Oh well the prize did seem too good to be true =p

A practical joke perhaps?

 

[Ardnived]

Kingz, I think that is a bit cynical. Stuff comes up.

 

[real138]

But that stuff shouldn't last 4 months...

 

[Avator]

Exactly. So if there's nobody that's willing to judge this (and has experience in the field and in judging contests on THW), I suppose we will just have to pretend this contest never existed and archive it.

 

[Ardnived]

@real
Yeah , just saying it's probably a different reason. Though yes I doubt that at this point it will happen.

PS: Thanks real

 

[real138]

hmm pyrite needs to find someone else to judge... preferably a map mod.

P.S. why thanking me?

aha i know now lol Np

 

[Pyritie]

Exactly. So if there's nobody that's willing to judge this (and has experience in the field and in judging contests on THW), I suppose we will just have to pretend this contest never existed and archive it.

Since when are you in charge of contests

 

[Avator]

Good to see you too.

You're the boss. If you think I'm that wrong, please tell us how it's supposed to be done instead!

 

[Kingz]

Kingz, I think that is a bit cynical. Stuff comes up.

Sure it is, that is why i said it.

Anyway i didn't mean it seriously but still it makes a person wonder, doesn't it?

 

[Wraithling]

I actually sympathize with the guys here. This is one of the longest and most difficult contests to participate in during the past year or so, and there is a possibility that no judging will ever be delivered? If the feeling of anti-climax is the product of constant postponement of judging, then I despair to think what is the resulting feeling of actually having no judging.

Divine Forum Intervention needed.

 

[Amigurumi]

Maybe a mod wants to judge this contest? Many of us put a lot effort into it, like
Wraithling said.

 

[Pyritie]

If anyone wants to judge this then we don't have anyone else doing so at the moment :\

 

[real138]

I would gladly judge this as I know they put alot of work into it.. I did too. But I simply don't have time currently. If anything changes I will speak up though
