Just to be on the cautious side - in the rules section it states no members of the Rising Storm team are eligible, that only includes developers and not any QA testers correct?
to tell you the truth, i'm not sure why testing should disqualify us from making a map or judging in the contest. it's not like we learned how to best make a great map just because we were looking for bugs and what-not before release. we certainly didn't gain any knowledge of how to use the sdk and that's the most major hurdle.Correct. Seems fair Mind you, you can't help in the judging either if you are a tester
I think keeping testers out is a big mistake. especially since you just disqualified Psycho Pigeon. there's one less map for RS. (hope he'll still do one for nothing)
well, since Psycho Pigeon specifically asked if RS QA testers were disqualified and Alan Wilson said they were, from that I have to assume that it would be a waste of time for a lot of people (myself included) to make a map just for the contest. might as well enjoy the summer and worry about making maps we can't compete with, after summer is over.Not sure if that answer means testers can't make a map and enter or not....
EDIT: I mean RS testers, not the map contest testers...
sorry. I have no idea what part of that confused you. what part of it did I lose you at?What?
I see that now. this is what threw me. why he even said it is beyond me. just made it harder to understand.I don't see where Wilson said it disqualifies you if you were an RS tester. He only said you can't be part of the map judging.
gee, 2 months seems rather short. Not that i was thinking of abandoning my current ro2 projects, but it seems like this deadline will prevent a lot of would-be rs mappers from submitting maps they otherwise would have taken the time to plan out, test, modify, and complete.
Here we go again..good luck to all those mappers who enter and let's hope we get some cracking new maps..
Excuse me but, what the hell are you talking about?!YAY! Another rigged competition! Where do I sign up
Who's going to win this one, Family of the TWI staff? Friends... maybe a new employee?
We know who's not going to win...evwy customer here on da forwums.
Nah I'll keep my time to use on something other than a predetermined contest... you know seeing as every other mapping contest TWI has hosted has been won by friends, family and new staff of TWI...strange I know.
Don't hate please.
