Nevermind Post #116. Internet's back now.
Virtually 4 days without landline and internet. Oh the pain. :(

The deadline's back to normal.

I can't believe I actually forgot about this competition. I'm going to have to drop out, exams are too important to waste time on a WC3 map.

Good luck to everyone competing!

25 minutes remaining.

I'm disappointed with the number of submissions. I guess it's just an unfortunate coincidence that 7 of you lost your computers; 9 of you can no longer run Wc3 for some reason (Blame Blizzard!); 8 of you were bombed (and your computers were destroyed); 5 of you got viruses which target Halloween themed WC3 maps; and 11 of you have exams, and didn't even have 2 hours in 3 whole weeks to make a little map.

:rolleyes:

Thanks to all those who submitted, and may submit in the next 25 minutes.

Nope, sorry.
Minor bugs won't affect your score much anyway. I'm not expecting any bug-free maps.

its not that much of a bug but the update would make it somehow more comfortable for the players.
you know the players can employ units at start of the game, thatfor they select a dummy unit. however if they unselect the dummy unit by accident they wont be able to employ any. the update will fix this and re-select the dummy for the players as long as they havent finished deploying.
it might really annoy if they lose the game because of that mistake of mine.

I've played all the minigames single player.
I'll start grading them sometime soon, once my business coursework has been completed.

Thanks to everyone who actually read the points in the submissions thread; namely the one about your username being in the map files title.

@romek:
got one question. i know this is a contest and such but may we upload our own submissions as members projects even though you havent finished judging them already? i am just curious because i want to upload a... well... less buggy version of my entry.

Go ahead.
Feel free to do whatever you wish with your submissions. :)

A little note to everyone:
Berp and I have played all the maps online to test them. All that's left is some solo testing and the actual grading. :thup:

I've started grading; shouldn't take too long.
I haven't gotten Berps results yet, and I'm unsure about any progress he's made.

Sorry about the delay with my grading, it just so happens that I had a lot of other things to do such as coursework. :(

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    If you are new to the site please check out the Recipe and Food Forum https://www.thehelper.net/forums/recipes-and-food.220/
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    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.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    I think I need to split the Sci/Tech news forum into 2 one for Science and one for Tech but I am hating all the moving of posts I would have to do
