To make absolutly clear to rule benders - Cinimatic must be made specifically for this event. Judges discretion.

How's this for a rule:

Judges can't participate.

I think that you don't want that cinematic entered because you don't want to lose to it. If you want to participate, don't be a judge. Frankly, I'm shocked nobody brought this point up earlier. Even if they aren't judging their own, they can still give lower scores to the others. Does anyone else agree with me?

:(, i'm already half way through. And also, Im not like that, I dont cheat (seriously, I don't on anything only did when I was like 9 :p).

I'll discuss with the other judges, and if they agree to your rule, I will submit it, but it will not be entered into the actual competition.

Is that alright?

It might be if it made any sense. You'd submit the rule or your cinematic?

You'd submit it for no reason because it would not be in the competition?

It'd be... An example, then?

Killfest and Player, you have taken this is extreme lengths. This was just meant to be a little (non-serious may I add) contest mainly situated around thehelper community.

If you can't be stuffed making your own cinematic, then don't enter. And also, why are you so extremely determined to win?! I don't see why this is so important to you :confused: .

Could we PLEASE just drop it. If you wanna continue flame me or anyone else, do it by other means.

Husky, let's look at some things:

1: It is my own work that I would've "liked" to submit (anything besides Part 7).

2: My entry is within your rules (made by me and no one else).

3: you refused to allow my viable entry, thus being prejudice.

I am in no way "trying" to win, just trying to express my freedom to submit a map I made into a contest that's for everyone, so why don't we get things worked out.

Make a stand, Mr 72985. Submit your cinimatic anyway. Just post it in this thread, then go and find something more exciting to paint the cieling with blood from a high-blood-pressure explosion. Not being insulting, I just like the graphic image. Not enough of the Sleep mentioned earlier in this thread.

I like the way you think ^.^

Entry: Azrael's Tale

http://shipw.wc3campaigns.com/Shipwrecked Maps/Azrael's Tale Trailer.w3x

Story: 50 years before the incident that started it all, before Cordina started the war of Humans Vs Sea Creatures. The cursed pirate known as Azrael was a pirate. His tale will be told later this year (early '06). This is a trailer.

Small problem I notice and others notice, fade-in/out a bit too...short :p

Seeing as how things seem to have calmed down a bit, I've removed anything that even only vaguely looked like a personal flame.

There might be, after all, some people that would want to submit something.
And, if they first have to read through some huge list of flaming material...

Well.

Let's keep this the clean place we're used to.


Yours,
AceHart

Amazing! I've seen better fight scenes (sorry, only issue I could find with this movie :D), but the way of going "underwater" and the ship and whatnot was fascinating. Not like I'm a judge, but eh wot.

Nice job, player. Few things, though:

First, the battle scene is a bit strange. Second, the ship is too square. With a bow that square, how's it going to get through the water with any speed? Third, are all the underwater creatures watching Azrael or what? That seemed a bit weird.

1. yep, just was trying a few thing out (was having some fun :p)

2. well, boat is was a WiP atm, and using the "raise tool" to create a boat would take a bit too long and even then it would not turn out right.

3. The Sea Creatures are just add-ins I just happened to make them all face one way :p I have a strange mind ^.^
