Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open
Why are you always up in arms about everything? Do you really believe there is absolutely no value in different perspectives of players? This basically doesn't seem any different at all then what I do for work. If you had the same people who wrote the code always quality checking it then you'd never see it from another view point and would have a harder time understanding how it is viewed from the typical user.
As a long time member of the community I think I am fully qualified to give my opinions on this perspective of simfile judgement. It's not like there won't be other people that also give their opinions as part of a collaborative effort. |

you haven't actually been an actual part of the community for years dude, the only files I can remember of yours are beautiful synergy (old) and juggernaut (would be considered a really bad joke file if released nowadays) you may have been fully qualified 6 years ago, but I really couldn't take you seriously as a judge. I hardly take rebirth seriously as a judge rofl |

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open
If you guys (Rebirth + Izzy) could just respond to criticism properly and get on with making serious efforts to generate something productive, this pack would've been off the ground on page 3. Being stubborn and standing up for what you believe is fine, but it's going to be difficult making a pack with only 2 people.
Change the opinions of others by making something with substance! A pack banner like Kommisar said, or a preview simfile. It's hard to drum up hype when there isn't even a flavour decided upon, only the organizer's word that he will step up (which the resume doesn't suggest). |

I don't mean to be instigative or dickish, I legitimately don't follow your reasoning. And writing code isn't at all analogous as it can be more objectively measured and seen as having an end goal which is either accomplished or not, which is nothing like a simfile. |

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open
This is why I would never consider myself being a judge. My only experience is with knowing how a simfile plays and not necessarily technical aspects, structural flaws, etc. I've been around for almost 10 years though!!

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open
Believe it or not, people who don't make simfiles are more than capable of judging if something is fun or not - though it should absolutely be paired with judges that have a good understanding of making files
Having non simfile artists judge files is a huge plus IMO and I wish I had someone with this mindset helping judge yolomania files. |

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open
Imagine a community of artists who all make abstract art. One of them makes something that everyone else in that community thinks is the best piece of art in the universe. Unfortunately every other person who enjoys art on the planet thinks it is terrible. These are the people that you are trying to show your work to, but only other abstract artists in that specific community ever thought it was good.

I'd say being able to competently judge requires a broad and thorough understanding which would be difficult, if not impossible to acquire without first having done a lot of stepping oneself, and there is even more beyond just stepping. |

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open
Dammit why is everyone being difficult about this? The only thing I had my doubts of in this effort was Rebirth's leadership/motivation. Nathan and other dudes are starting to sound dangerously close to elitist dudes like Kil and other people from ODI days. If someone wants to make a pack then let them. If they want Joe Blow to be a judge, then let them. You don't have to participate at all

e: to point something else out: all that I said is much more relevant with the pack name being DCP (for the moment) I see you're looking to change it anyway. Last edited by ilikexd; 06-27-2014 at 11:33 AM.. |

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open
You forgot the last snippet
"I will however go against that rule at times and allow jumpstream/dumpfile submissions. If the chart makes sense and it is fun to play, and if it would actually make the pack better, I'm all for it." Last edited by Dynam0; 06-27-2014 at 11:45 AM.. |
