Halloween Speed Build Contest

[nbohr1more 1892]

All the wiki entries point to Missions page where your mirrors are listed so the Bloodgate mirrors in the actual wiki are kinda redundant though it's convenient.

 

There are a bunch of missions missing those so I'll fix that for the sake of consistency.

 

As for the new privileges... if you've got a sharp eye, you will notice some improvements to many of the screens for the missions in the missions database...

Two months to judge? I dunno, wouldn't one be enough? This way, the announcement of the winners may feel a bit like an afterthought...

[Springheel 4436]

One month for 5 missions doesn't sound too bad. It's not like they're very big.

[nbohr1more 1892]

Alright.

 

Votes must be in by December 11th.

So much frontpage time at Moddb!

 

It's because all the FPS modders are playing Battlefield 3.

All the better for us, I feel... ;-P

[nbohr1more 1892]

Sorry guys, I'm out.

 

But I'm still working on it and hopefully I can finish it in the next few months.

 

 

Hey Xcen.

 

Are you planning on merging that work with this:

 

http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/10003-so-what-are-you-working-on-right-now/page__view__findpost__p__260325

 

...or are they still two different developments?

[Xcen 103]

I thought about merging them, but it's a totally different style. I don't think it will work.

[Bikerdude 3737]

are you going to release the mission though Xen, as I would love to see the architecture etc..

[AluminumHaste 916]

Mmmm tasty vertical play. I hope you release that mission.

[nbohr1more 1892]

Added Xcen's other mission to the Upcoming Fan Mission wiki.

 

(Hopefully it wont remain upcoming for too long )

Umm, I know it's late, but I went to make a Steam announcment about the contest/missions.

 

However it's hard to find which missions are actually in the contest.

 

How about for next contest we:

 

1-sticky the contest announcement topic. I found this once, and had to back track to find it again, lol.

 

2- when the missions are released add them to the first page so we have an easy to find list instead of trying to find each forum post.

I know last time I posted contest on Steam I got it wrong like 3 times in a row.

[nbohr1more 1892]

This time I announced the released entries over at moddb but making the thread sticky would help too. I'll also update the 1st post as suggested.

 

Thanks.

 

Just in case, the entries are:

 

House in Blackbog Hollow (stumpy)

Samhain night on Bone Hill (pranqster)

A Night to Remember (Fieldmedic)

The Creeps (Mortem Desino)

Dragon's Claw (Bikerdude)

[Baddcog 114]

No worries, thanks. I actually found them on the main page (but had to go back a page). So I posted, we still only have 25 members and most are probably from here.

[Thiefette 40]

Not sure if this is the place to ask but here goes. Why are the polls different from each other? In some it say's I've voted (Creeps, A Night to Remember) yet I can not see how nor can I see what others have voted. Yet in others (Dragons Claw) I can see how I voted as well as how others have voted? Just curious.

[nbohr1more 1892]

There is an option to set the poll to make votes public but my browser didn't render it apparently (or I missed it) so the template poll above isn't public. I imagine that some combination of either the issue I mentioned or authors trying to remain consistent with the template are at fault for polls that are missing public voter detail. Then, of course, some of the polls were built to be more consistent with the previous contests. Now we have our gumbo of both public and private votes. (Apologies.)

[Bikerdude 3737]

are we getting close to the end of voting..?

[nbohr1more 1892]

December 11th is the last day of voting.

 

Are you anxious to start a new contest Biker?

[Bikerdude 3737]

LOL, no. Got plenty of other things to be doing, I might even do a very small xmas themed single house mission for holidays though...one of myfriends asked me if I was...hehe

[Fieldmedic 115]

What? I thought 1/1 - 2012 was the last day???

 

EDIT:

Maybe I should have watched this topic more closely...

[Bikerdude 3737]

Understood, RL takes priority here.
