[QUOTE=grea$emonkey;14145397]Be patient.[/QUOTE] For how long? GMod Tower long? Duke Nukenm Forever long? 2 days long?
Probably that last one.
[QUOTE=Levybreak;14145451] Duke Nukenm Forever long? [/QUOTE] Hahah :d [B] Edit [/B] Any news yet?
So wheres the new gamemode contest? Are you guys done now or something? I saw you guys judge them like 3-4 days ago it shouldn't take that long to pick a winner. I know you have a review to write but come on that's something that shouldn't take you a week to do. Also I didn't like you hosting the gamemode contest, the time when mahalis told you to do it you told me I get to host the gamemode contest. I said k, then you expected me to say something like I was jealous because you were hosting it. Also I didn't like how you were always contradicting other posts that said they wanted something you didn't. I don't think the person hosting should be including any thoughts into the voting, especially when we say 1 thing about the game you want then you say how wrong we are and later on say the same thing about our game we want. Judges and hosting people should answer questions but not persuade people to want a gamemode or be saying hw much one sucks just because they don't want it. Hope there are more contests, that would kinda be dumb if there wasn't.
[QUOTE=grea$emonkey;14145397]Be patient.[/QUOTE] I am being as such.

I am awaiting some reviews and ratings from other judges and it is rather hard to accommodate time zones for online testing. Now please be patient and stop complaining about this. I have worked very hard to start these up again. I have taken a considerable amount of time out of my life (that's right, I actually have a life away from the computer) and would appreciate it if would you stop giving me such a hard time about this. You must have some anger management issues because you are getting very worked up about a bunch of small things. Please contain your anger. Besides, these are monthly. We should let things settle down a little before a new contest. We can start a new contest next week. I have spring break next Friday so I'll be starting a new contest soon. Perhaps this weekend or next Monday.

Your a bad host, we either need the person who did it before or someone who actually cares about gamemode contests even if they aren't competing. I would love to host it and run everything smoothly and actually get people wanting to do this but of course you wouldn't want me to host and would say I shouldn't with no reason why so I won't even bother asking to host. If anything the community should judge on which gamemodes is the best, it's pretty easy to rig a judging. And then maybe have 3 main judges as well and compare the community judging to the select judging. And finally only people who really care about this should be judging or hosting it, not the ones who make a big deal of how much time it takes to do or brag about it or just take a week to do one little thing for it while everyone is waiting.

[QUOTE=Nerdboy;14191896]You're a bad observer.[/QUOTE] Explain with reasons. Here are mine: [B]Bad host[/B] "Took precious time out of my life to do this" bragging to me or whatever he was trying to accomplish when he got mahalis to let him host these. "I worked super hard to get gamemode contests" -- Resulting in a simple thread with 2-4 titles on prizes contestents times ect, and not getting the reviews in at a decent time. retaliating on posts about people saying side scroller was a bad topic or who said something else was better than a side scroller. [B]People not caring[/B] Taking a week to get 3 reviews done. Yes it could take a day or 2 but a week? If these reviews are only 1 paragraph long I'm going to be disappointed. [B]Judging[/B] Yes there probably are some good judges that were picked, but how hard is it to say "Hey I'm going to make you a judge, just make sure to pick this game to win." 3 judges should not speak for the entire community on what is good or not.
[QUOTE=Nerdboy;14191896]You're a bad observer.[/QUOTE] Agreed. It has not even been a week since the actual judging. Judging takes time. I would never rig a judging. Mahalis wouldn't allow that. I care about the contests. I participated in the first one. I know it's hard to be patient, but stuff takes time.

[B]"Mahalis wouldn't allow that."[/B] It can still happen doesn't matter if Mahalis wouldn't allow it. [B]"I care about the contests. I participated in the first one."[/B] Doesn't mean you care, could have just been in it for the prize like a lot of people were. [B]"I know it's hard to be patient, but stuff takes time."[/B] I'm not complaining on the length of this I'm complaining on a bad host you are not managing all this like you should telling them to get there shit ready on a specific date and not whenever you feel like it. [B]"It has not even been a week since the actual judging."[/B] It has been about 4 days, I'm sure it will continue about another 4 because you can't manage the people you are judging. [B]"Judging takes time."[/B] Yes it does, but for 3 judges writing a simple review on 3 gamemodes shouldn't take a week. Now if it was the community judging, it would take some time and be worth the week so everyone has tiem to get on and state why they think one game should win.

You state you're not impatient or complaining about the length of time for the reviews to be processed, but then state that you are NOT complaining about said things. You, sir, are a hypocrite. You whine, complain, and hiss just because someone can't do what you want. If you find him to be a bad host, why not create your own contest with your own prizes and do the work yourself? I doubt you'd get very far because you'd probably whine about it being too hard or taking too much of your time up. Just be patient. GreaseMonkey is doing this for free and with his own time. Suck it up and grow some balls. :3

I would offer to host but like I said Greasemonkey would probably do what he could to not let me so he can have the fame of hosting the gamemode contests! And you act like he should be getting paid to host this lawl that's probably the stupidest thing I've heard so far. Anyways he isn't offering these prizes either and I would be glad to use my time setting up a gamemode contest unlike how he is saying how he is wasting his time doing it. Also I'm not going to set up my "nonofficial" gamemode contest because that would be stupid. Also I'm a hard worker, there are things I might give up on but I believe if you say your going to do something, do it right and do it to the best of your ability. Also I was the one to suggest the gamemode contests come back and offered to host but then Greasmonkey did for some reason, I'm sure I could have handled it. And show me your proof that it would be too hard for me and I would complain and give up please. Why do you guys flame with pointless opinions. I'm giving you any reason or facts behind why I say what I do, why not try the same instead of just trying to stick up for him huh?
[QUOTE=find me;14192881]-words-[/QUOTE] Gamemode contests are supposed to be fun. You are taking the fun out of this contest by telling grea$emonkey that he is doing a bad job at something he volunteered for. He has been doing a fine job. The contest has been progressing at a consistent enough pace. Leave him alone.

Then I start getting messages from Greasemonkey, "Hey I'm hosting the gamemode contests now", me:"cool", "Oh I expected you to say something else", me:"huh?", "oh nothing" Then it was just misleading info basically and not knowing what's going on or what will happen next like all those other popular threads like the tower gamemode and tornado map everyone loves but have no clue when they will be heard from again. I just wish it was managed better is what I'm getting at.

You have a lot of run-on sentences and poorly spelled words. About the whole non-official gamemode contest, why wouldn't you? I mean, if Greasemonkey were to just give you the responsibility, which I highly doubt, of the next gamemode contest, would you follow most of the criticism you've spewed forth? I also highly doubt you will, as I have yet to see you act instead of talk. :P

Yea I fail at english but I was just calling you stupid because you said the same thing twice not because you spelled something wrong or wrote a sentence wrong.

Lets stop fighting. I've tried contacting Rambo for his review but he's not answering, and mahalis isn't either. I'll Have results for you by this weekend. I'm sorry for the delays. Anyways, find me, please stop starting arguments. They are not wanted here and are clearly not appreciated by anyone. So please, either kindly leave or just keep your mouth shut if you don't have anything nice to say.
Grea$emonkey did a good job managing to throw together judging sessions in the last minute, and tried hard to make it work for all the judges considering we're in different timezones. find me, sounds to me that you're only jealous because you can't host the gamemode contests now that Grea$emonkey is. Even if he taunted you in PM, which would've been kind of lame, it has nothing to do with his hosting. The reason it takes time is not because of grea$emonkey. It's because a few judges, despite accepting the position, did not report in time. There is nothing he can do about this. And why would he be some sort of nazi about review deadlines? This is not a newspaper. The judges accepted to judge as volunteers, which typically means they'll write a review [B]when they see it fit[/B], to a certain extent. I don't see why giving them a week is a problem. You know nothing about their lives; something unexpected could have happened, and the first thing you think about when something happens is [B]not[/B] to report to grea$emonkey that he is going to be late. My review has been ready since the night of testing and I will send it in when everyone else is ready or I am asked for it.
Alright, I've been busy lately writing a 20 page sociology paper. I'll review this shit today. I wanna take a different approach with my review, instead of rating each game out of 10 i will be rating each game against eachother. So each category will have one winner out of the 3. More of a competitive approach as opposed to standardized scoring. 'find me', you need to stop flipping the fuck out over this. Looks like you're butthurt that you aren't hosting the contest more than anything.

The reason I would want to host is to get the gamemode contest going quicker, so far it's just been amazingly slow unlike it used to be with all the news on what's happening. So far it's been terrible checking back every day to find nothing.

The only people that would report stuff daily would be entrants because while they code, I wait and prepare for the next step. If you are busy with your own gamemode and are too busy to host, then why are you complaining? You have nothing to lose from this, so chill out.

Okay, so can we have like a judge discussion thread where all judges can share their ratings?
All these words are making my head hurt ._. I just wanna play gmod.
Then play Garry's Mod. This is a forum. We talk.
There's nothing interesting to play without retards ruining it. I wanna play a gamemode retards haven't ruined.
