Just wondering, does anybody know any of the people who run ticalc.org? Because it seems like they're being a bit impartial lol

What do you mean by impartial? Do you mean they only featured one of the entry? If it's the case I think it is due to Space Dash being the only finished entry and due to them capping news at every 3 days, Splut will take a long while to get featured if it has to.

Btw the ones in charge of news editing are Duncan/Chronomex, Nikky/Allynfolksjr and TravisE/tev

doesn't impartial mean nonjudgemental?

Quote from: wikipedia
Impartiality is a principle of justice holding that decisions should be based on objective criteria, rather than on the basis of bias, prejudice, ...

I should really finish Blur...


Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

Ah, right. I am not too familiar with that word. Normally they try to be neutral, unless they write a joke in their news (like the PS3 comment in the PS3Groove thing), but they used to have a reputation of favoring 68K calculators over Z80 ones and a bias against pure-BASIC games

Yeah, Runer's post doesn't seem to make too much sense....maybe he meant 'partial'

I'm not too sure. Maybe he got the impression they were biased or something. I know some staff used to be, back then. Apparently Michael_V was upset that xLIB competed with Omnicalc and it influenced his decision to not feature it, but I'm not sure if this is true. It was a long while ago.

Hmm, or maybe not many people have even submitted their entries yet.

I know i haven't, mine needs a LOT of work before i feel that it's worthy to put on ticalc as an actual game.

Yeah we'll see. However, since they doN't test all games right away it migth be good to email them, else it will most likely get missed

Ah ok ^^

Hopefully some of the programs migth get featured.

On a side note, I wonder if Lord will finish HoMM because if the bugs were fixed and battles had some more graphics, that would really rule
