Contest Forum?

[U are a noob]

What happened to the contest forum?

 

[The Helper]

Gone. Your contest now lives in WE Help

 

[U are a noob]

Wait so can we still post contests because I was just working on making a contest.

 

[The Helper]

I guess so but there is no longer a forum for them.

So no approval necessary?

 

[Pyrogasm]

Why'd you remove it?

Why'd you remove it?

We work in mysterious ways.

As always .

So no approval necessary?

 

[DM Cross]

It was TH's idea. Who the heck would he get to approve it?

No I mean for contests.

 

[The Helper]

That has not been determined yet.

Shall I wait for the decision before I post the thread?

 

[ReVolver]

Just let the WE Mods to approve it.

 

[AceHart]

If your thread survives 48 hours without being closed, you may consider it "approved".
If it is any interesting, it might get a "read this".

If someone who's never shown any working map comes with a "contest" to get the perfect JASS implementation of some spell,
the thread will be closed, burned, and he'll end up with half the rep he had before.

 

[DM Cross]

Half?

... Why half? Seems kinda generous. Especially coming from you, Ace ^.^

 

[AceHart]

Hm.

Well, now that you mention it...

 

[elmstfreddie]

Couldn't have been THAT important...
I didn't even notice it was gone.
(no really, when did you remove it???)

 

[DM Cross]

Just today, I believe. It was a sub-forum in WE Help Zone...

Personally, I'm all for chopping those sub-forums up and just shovelling all that's left into the WE Help Zone. When I first started out, we didn't even have sub-forums, if I remember correctly. We had WE Help Zone. That was pretty much it. No Member's Projects, no Contests, no Trigger/Code Submission or anything like that... Gah.

I'm so old

 

[elmstfreddie]

I mostly hang out in the WE Help Zone (well I go there every day, isn't that pleasant and lively?), and I didn't see it go as I said
But the sub-forums help clutter.
The contests don't cause clutter though.
Good decision.
Member's Projects keeps spam (lol) away from real questions

 

[DM Cross]

I agree with the idea behind Member's Projects. It helps promote maps, it helps people get help with multiple different problems that all surround a single map and it helps dedicated mappers (what are those? They exist?!) have to NOT fight against masses and waves of the same question, over and over again.

Thus, Member's Projects = :shades:

Contests? Trigger/Code? Eh.

Tutorials, that one's good, for obvious reasons. Not that anyone ever really looks in there, I'll wager. Well, not "no one, ever", but barely anyone. You get what I'm sayin'.

Ya feel me?
