ABS Showdown Contest

[Shadonking]

if only one submits some thing then they should be the winner just for the effort

[tSwitch]

that's called "victory by default" which really sucks

[Blizzard]

Actually one person already sumbitted an almost finished version and it's not NAMK.

[tSwitch]

=o

AWESOME!
COMPETITION!

this means we might lose, good, I hate winning by default.

"60% well use of the ABS's possibilities"
I hope we don't lose too many points in this category for simplifying the controls and such
to make it easier to learn and play

[winkio]

hooray! other people!

[tSwitch]

Alright...I'm done 

I can't put any more into this game.
I'll end up killing myself >_<

[Blizzard]

The contest is over. Only 2 people have submitted their game (I thought 3 people would): NAMKCOR and Landith. I'll send the games to the judges in a few minutes after preparing everything.

Oh, and cw7 fails. Who's gonna go to his forum and tell him that he loses, that XAS loses, that he fails horribly?

[tSwitch]

it's better than winning by default.

Good Luck Landith.

I'm waiting for an answer here. xD

XAS isn't a bad system, it just needs to be used right
I think cw7 is the only loser in this equation

[Aqua]

Good luck you too!

Ack!  I should have signed up to be a judge. *flails arms in defeat*

[legacyblade]

I think if this had been a normal month, I would have submitted an entry. Lots of stuff got in the way. Good job, those of you who submitted. I think we should do this contest again some other time, more people would submit, I think.

I agree here actually. I think the timing of this contest was very poor considering it was during the Christmas-New Year dates specifically, meaning people would be naturally busy or away to do certain occasions. Times like the summer or spring would work better because there's no special events to keep people tied away from the computer.

I disagree with that.

Oh no, I only meant that Blizz-ABS beats XAS, I didn't want to imply that XAS is a bad system. I know that it isn't.

Blame cw7. <_<;

[Fantasist]

I'm done with 20% of my 30 minute game...
There's always next time I guess...

[scoace13]

so...who won...or has it still not been determined quite yet?

[Blizzard]

I gave the judges time until tomorrow 12h GMT+1.

[Blizzard]

Alright, the few judges that have actually responded have rated the games. Here is the ranking:

1. NAMKCOR & Zylos
2. Landith

Landith will finish his game in a few days and release it personally. I will see if I can foward the link to everybody else. NAMKCOR will re-release his game after a few fixes as Blizz-ABS example game so stay tuned.

The contest was rather a failure, but at least I've learned not to organize contests during winter break. xD I hope that the next contest will go through better.

[Shadonking]

congratulations NAMKCOR & Zylos.

it might be better to do the contest in the easter holiday.

[Blizzard]

Maybe. I would rather say that the same thing like this time would happen. :/ I'll see.
