Contentless OP oh boy
literally 2 seconds ago i was about to make a new mapping thread.
I'd rather start a thread and have discuss begin, and then improve the OP than have no thread and then post an OP with content.
So I am proving the OP as we speak. Now discuss mapping and stop being a troll.
It's better to have content in the OP like the last thread did, than no content at all
Use the other thread for mapping like I said....
and contentless op
[QUOTE=Smashman;29972401]The Portal 2 Authoring Tools are currently in Beta, this means we don't have to play around in Alien Swarm SDK, hooray!
Feel free to ask questions and post your WIP maps here![/QUOTE]
I know how you love to run the community and all, but you didn't say that the mod emporium was going to be used for maps as well.
Why wouldn't this be in the mapping section?
[QUOTE=GameDev;29972531]Why wouldn't this be in the mapping section?[/QUOTE]
because smashman thinks it's his job to make every thread
wonderful thread
:doh:

This might've turned out better if you had everything ready and in the OP in the first place.
The OP is coming along slowly and most important there's a new thread to discuss maps.
Why do people complain about that?

This was my thought. I'd personally rather have a place to discuss, than an amazing pretty place 4 hours after it could have been useful.
Plus the old OP was full of completely useless info anyway.

mostly because when it's thread 2 either the old OP makes it again or we elect a new one
you don't just go "k I'm making it now"

I agree with this statement fully.

Old OP hasn't been on in ages, and nobody was elected.
Look, I don't care. It's up and the OP is contentful now. Let's just map, and not drama all up in this place.

No one was elected because the thread lock came up so quickly so there was no time to elect anyone
I elect anyone who isn't smashman
i dont give 2.5 shits about who made the op, im just glad there's another thread
The threads have been locking at post 3500 for past 4 days, but no matter.
Nobody was elected, and the old OP hasn't been around. I stepped up to the plate. The OP is fine now, and I think we should just get back to mapping.

Too late I'm afraid.
I elect Conro

That's like doing CPR on somebody when the paramedic is right there waiting.
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;29973355]I elect Conro[/QUOTE]
I unelect myself as I already have a large thread to maintain
