ABS Showdown Contest

[Blizzard]

Lol, there are links in the first post. You can go there and take a look. xD

Oooh, very good idea for a contest.

[winkio]

I did look.  it's kinda sad.  Especially the part where cw7 follows you around to all these forums just to make 1 post.  and then get yelled at.

Well, it looks like we should get at least 4 decent games then that aren't all Blizz-ABS.

[Blizzard]

I hope so.

Zylos is having trouble accessing his computer for more than 30 minutes at a time, and even that is rare
a combo of computer troubles and parents.

if he were to drop out, would that affect the length of the game I have to make?

edit: yeah, he's gonna have to drop for the most part.  at best he could contribute a few puzzles, and maybe a bit of story, but the rest is all in my hands.  We should still be able to pull off around an hour though.

=/ Let's make the minimum 45 minutes for you then.

alright, that sounds good.

question. If you use tons of addons, do the addons that you don't use count against your maximum lines of code? And I know that class definition, and method declaration don't count as effective lines of code (and thus are excluded from the count), but what about the attr:accessor or attr:reader lines?

(and the UMS is freaking HUGE, I need to make a tiny version for my game, XD)

[tSwitch]

I was wondering that myself.

[Ryex]

you could remove the adons you don't use and then it definitely wouldn't!

[Tazero]

Sorry i got to drop maybe another time......

damn, it would seem that none of the other forums care about the contest.  I mean, they have one or two people signed up, but no discussion, cheering, or posts even since the contest started.

Well, this game started here as a result of a thread that got everyone hot and bothered. I guess we can't expect enthusiasm from others who think of this as a simple contest that maybe sprung up as a random occurrence. This forums also has a special tie to Blizzard and thusly, most of these games are all BABS based. With Blizzard here and all, it's hard to to get excited. Our community is small and tight knit and we have a special place in our RMXP for Blizzard and whatever he does.

Z and I have a few good ideas pretty well put together and we should have our game set for the 30th.

[Fantasist]

And I just finished a rough 20% of the game. Took me long enough. I know I'm not gonna win, but I hope I can complete it in time for the contest.

[winkio]

hopefully!!!! 6 days

[Diokatsu]

The countdown has begun! I'm so sexcited over who might win 

[Blizzard]
