[redscores]

I submitted my spell! haha!

 

[Zack1996]

I know my entry is late and all but please look at it. It is not really well done but its quite funny
I like how the Panda does random stuff in it so please do take a look
PS: I don't mind if you don't judge it, but please take a look.

 

[xxdingo93xx]

Ok .... I hope I will get a chance. I found another, easier solution to fix my spell and I did yesterday.
Poorly my connection sucked and I wasn't able to load it up by time -.-
Will I get a chance? =) I loaded it up at about 11 AM (in germany)

I just came back from school - directly on the computer and loaded it up...I did as fast as I could :x

Update

I made a mistake in the test map hehe

 

[Squiggy]

I r b teh winrar

 

[HINDYhat]

Whatever. I had the best idea anyway.

SURPRISE BUTTSECKS!

 

[xxdingo93xx]

Ok, I downloaded all Submissions.
If mine will be counted as well, there will be 14 Challangers! Good Luck to all of you

 

[NiddHogg-kun]

thx ^^
EDIT: Zack1996 your spell is bugged. It will deal 50 damage all time. Doesnt matter what level it is. Formula is 50 x (30 x Level Of Unknown spell)
fix that

 

[Zack1996]

Thanks! I decided to fix it and now its done
I hope there are no more bugs
Overall, the contest was nice. Lol.

 

[-Berz-]

Good luck everyone! =)

 

[Eccho]

Zack, Dingo, you know you have submitted your spells too late? I reminded everyone twice >_>. Let see how it will turn out then.

Read that submit-post before asking silly questions
I think I kinda "earn" the chance, I couldn't do anything yesterday, my connection went off till today, it is worse then whatever and I hate it -.-
And in this case I think I will also get the chance ...

 

[Eccho]

Yes, I know what you said about chance... Well, PurplePoot was allowing but like I said, thats up to Hanky. Your spell however is a nice idea, but Im not sure if it is glitchy or if I didnt really read the read tooltip text properly, but as I saw it, it behaves strange.
Also the tooltip seems alittle too long._.

And the map is also called "just another warcraft map (in german)" in game

I had a big haste because I wanted to upload the spell as fast as I could ^^ and Besides that, the spell is important, not the map description.
Hanky will hopefully allow me to enter ... :x
Well, the spell is a ranged spell. You may read the red marked description so know what the consequences are if you don't use it as a ranged spell whahaha

 

[DiscipleOfLife]

dingo's spell works like a charm if you use hold position right after it. Else your hero will move away in an attempt to kick some enemy ass if present, which is when the spell punishes him. It would be a bit more intuitive if the spell had a short channeling duration to hold the caster still, though. Very nice spell anyways, I hope it will be excluded

btw I noticed you had my GCU library in your map, but you didnt use it anywhere! Anyways you had stripped most of the functions off of it, and I thought I'd just mention that Vexorian's map optimizer does that for you (removes unused functions) so you don't really need to worry about that yourself, so you could just as well redistribute the whole library.

1. You hope it will be excluded? So that you have a better chance to win? ;D ^^
2. Oops ... forgot to delete your system >.< I was using it before hehe ... gonna delete that after the result because it wouldn't matter if I do it now, Hanky surely has already downloaded all spells now.

 

[Eccho]

Maybe, maybe not. It could take a week to review them, and also since they are spread out all over the thread.

 

[Hanky]

Ok I will try my best to rate the spells as soon as possible. There you got again the list of all submitted spells.

Ok since I don't know if I should rate the spells which was submitted after the deadline. I think the best would be that the other participants decide if the submissions get rated or not.

Soon more...

 

[Paladon]

Go ahead and rate them. You´re the host.

 

[Eccho]

Nice Hanky... you made a list

As you know I am not a participant myself, but as a observer I would say to let them stick through this time. After all same thing happend for me the last contest, (for more than me frankly), the contest before that too.
Maybe the rules should be polished a bit to clarify when the contest should end. I know... I should have been perfectly clear already, but it seems to happend around here.

 

[Dynasti]

I think the late spells should not be inn because it is the rules though.

It would be nice but i's stick to the rules

 

[DiscipleOfLife]

Rate++

 

[xxdingo93xx]

Well ... if I am allowed to announce my opinion about that -
I would have been by time if my connection wasn't sucking -.- I had 1h 30min left to upload it, I tried for half an hour to get the damn connection back.
I really think that I (and Zack as well) earn the chance to take part in the contest due to problems with the computer which I couldn't fix.
I know that certainly 75% of all challangers will say "No! Don't let them take part, rules are rules!!!" to get a better chance to win for themselves. (That is why I also see no solution asking all the pubilc for this ...)
The only thing I can say about this is: How would you feel in this situation?
You wouldn't care about my opinion now anyway ... so well, whatever ...

 

[Palaslayer]

right ^^

 

[Eccho]

I dont think Dingo is lying Palaslayer...

 

[Justify]

Maybe not, but it's also not all true what he is saying.
I don't care if they are rated or not, I hope that they'll. The problem is not that guys say "No! Don't let them take part, rules are rules!!!" to get a better chance to win for themselves", the problem is that rules ARE rules. I think you know what I mean... if you argue like that we just could delete all rules. "I just used a part of the caster system. Don't disqualify me just because you want to win!!!" (no I didn't, just an example).
However, I already mentioned that I hope that they'll get rated, just wanted to say this :O

 

[xxdingo93xx]

As I discussed with Hanky about that, he is agreeing to rate those as well so this discussion can be forgotten now.

 

[Zack1996]

Frankly, I don't really care if my spell gets rated. I just need some comments and ways to improve it. I am going to post the spell in the spells section so I need some ways to improve it.
Finally, thanks for the great contest and good luck to all!
PS: My previous post seems to be deleted for some reason.

 

[-Berz-]

Rate them.

I would say something more, but... I'm rather quiet...

Edit:

Now I'll comment the spells ^^

--------------

NiddHogg-kun

Spell seems original, but I see the knock back almost in every second spell. Its to flashy, i would go with smaller fire effect.
The triggering looks ok.

Spell is nice =)

-------------------

Squiggy

Hmm, i don't really like it, because the unit just vanish. Thou the effect is nice.
You are using variable and a custom script for storing and destroying special effect, you could just simply destroy it.

I see you like mass aoe spells ^^

-----------------

Dynasti

Ooo..I really like how everything gets destroyed and how the impale spikes gets split up.
I don't know much vJass...

Overall its nice, but it reminds me of dota.

--------------------------

redscores

Mass effects, as you said, nice idea with bleeding. The flashing effect is not really fitting the spikes.

No multi level support D:

----------------------------

scorpion182

Yet again a spell that reminds me of Tide Hunters ultimate. The flying part looks somehow odd.

Not really original.

-------------------------

Paladon

Some epic spell you have there

I like it a lot, triggering seems ok, spell looks good, nothing else to say

------------------

Palaslayer

This is a absolutely a surprise spell ^^
Thou its still not perfect (as you said)
I must admit i learned something from your triggering

it really fits the theme.

-------------------

Mage_Goo

Did you used some third party program? I can't open the map D:

-----------------

The_Reborn_Devil

Hehe, funny spell
Ye, its a starfall, with footman model, but its funny =)

---------------------

DiscipleOfLife

I can't open your map from WE :S

-------------------

Zack1996

Lol, i just love the animation when he hits himself
A lot of random effects, thats nice

---------------------

xxdingo93xx

I don't totally get your spell :S
Looks nice on water And the triggering seems ok.

---------------------

Justify

A complex spell, good idea of making different effect on each level(slow/stun/damage)
Special effect are so-so.
Spell is overall good triggered and it works

-----------------

-BerZeKeR-

Your spell fails...

---------------------

This is just in my opinion...

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Rep whoring, reported

To bad you joined the club

Before I posted it I thought "Should I do this, or not? Is this allowed?".
I saw a lot of other contestants +repping others with comments like "Good luck", so I thought that I could do the same. After I +repped some guys I thought "Have I +repped all contestants now?". To be sure I posted that message, but as I said I wasn't sure if I should have done it.

 

[xxdingo93xx]

Hehe, funny spell

Hey! Why aren't Zeck's and my spell commented? ;D
Luckily, they will be also rated ... but I don't think we'll get another chance ehehehe ...

 

[redscores]

My spell supports multi-level... just add level dependant values... easy... isnt it? or maybe add if then else for each spell level, your decision.

EDIT: The Spell IS updated in the post with the example how to add more levels, so please download the spell again and check it.

 

[-Berz-]

@redscores

yes it is, but you should make at least 2 levels, because I'm pretty sure that people won't edit the spell, to see what it does on other levels. You should do it...

But please don't get all mad as you usually do... its just my opinion.

@Dingo

I did tested all, i just had a lunch... and i did comment spells right after i tested them, so i edited the post 15 times

 

[Justify]

There is only one single spell he forget, pfff love you ;P

 

[-Berz-]

There is only one single spell he forget, pfff love you ;P

Oshi-- i thought i commented it, sorry.

I swear i did, mby i forgot to save it :S

 

[redscores]

There are 3 levels implemented in the spell... in the code... just look in it...

 

[Palaslayer]

-BerZeKeR-

Your spell fails...

with this, u are definetly wrong

i like it and it may one of the few really playable spells in this contest

which spells i would rate under the first 3

1. Berzeker
2.Paladon
3. mine cause i dont like the others too much xD

 

[Dynasti]

1. Berzeker
2.Paladon
3. mine cause i dont like the others too much xD

>.< where is mine?!

 

[Palaslayer]

4th ^^

 

[DiscipleOfLife]

---------------------

DiscipleOfLife

I can't open your map from WE :S

-------------------

You just have to save it again (Ctrl+S), and then it'll open! Seems like I forgot to do that myself in a hurry after having renamed the map with "Save As". I appologize for the inconvenience.

 

[-Berz-]

@ DOL

Ok, I'll try it out =)

Now it gives me a bunch of errors :S

But those errors are like where you putted comments like
"=================================" <- error
"Expected end of line" <- error

:S

 

[redscores]

It is a vjass map, so you need new gen.
