In current rules there isn' t nothing about balancing units nor other aspects of it. So don' t worry about it.
Balancing so far isn' t graded also. There are points for leaks, originality and eye candy. Overall rules are vague.

All in all, this is an interesting Contest idea, but I would suggest that you do a few things....

First thing would be to spell check and look over your original post

>-A building that can only be but once you upgraded your racial equivalent of a town hall 2 times

Did you mean...

-A building that can only be built once you upgraded your racial equivalent of a town hall 2 times

Second thing would be to further explain your Rules...

This is an example:

>60 Points - Meets the Requirements. Does it specify the rules given?

How are we to do this? are we just to assume our stuff is good enough for you and we will get a 60? Or will be more specific with the exact things you will be grading on.

Extend the deadline. I myself would be more than happy to participate if the contest date was the 30th of September. I am sure many others would join aswell.

I can't join. It needs so much time to do upgrades, units and such a things.. That time is something I don't have.

I think October 25 is better....

If not...I'll try and make it at September 30...U mind if the race is unbalanced?

One more thing...Does the race have to be themed with the warcraft Universe?

Okay a few more comments from me :p

1. Does the size of the map matter? because the way mine if going, I may have to e-mail it to you :p

2. >I call Gnoll

Have fun with that....I CALL GOBLINS XD

3. When I told you that you needed to explain things further, I meant in the first post :p Some people may look at that, and not enter because in my opinion, the thing doesn't have much structure to it :\

Oh and for some reason I can't edit my posts. That's why I didn't add anything to the first post.

It would be awesome if a mod could edit my first post to change the deadline to the 30th and to add the requirements -A source of food (Farm)

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
