Other Calculators / Re: zcontest basic judges headquarter
« on: December 03, 2011, 11:56:50 pm »
About games with no instructions, IMHO there should be a penalty on gameplay if you have troubles figuring out how to play. In fact in the previous Omnimaga contests there were and this is why entries like Splut and Cube Droid Save the Galaxy lost a lot of points in the "gameplay" category and even costed a 3rd place win to Ikkerens.
Yeah, I learned my lesson on that one, though I didn't have time to write one anyway. :/  (Cube Droid was my entry.)

I saw that while judging you have to also judge this: "-Life : /5"
What is meant with Life?
That category equates to what I'd call "replayability."  Basically, after you finished the game do you want to go back and play through the entire game or parts of the game.

Also, since I'm posting in here, I figured I'd say a couple of things about speed:
-absolute madness is too slow on 83 plus calculators
I'd argue against that.  For one thing, it was programmed on a TI-83+, which proves that it's ultimately playable on it.  I believe the question you guys need to ask is "do the amount of features a program has justify its slower speed."  For instance, Midnight has quite a few features if I do say so myself, but it's also pretty sluggish.  Remember that this is TI-Basic, after all, and that speed is something that will hamper most programs.

Why is Squareball not in the list?
Also @judges: Be sure you have version v1.1 of Squareball and not v1.0
 
Sorry, that's my fault.  I must have missed it by accident when compiling the list.  It's fixed now.

Ah, okay.  Cool.
Wouldn't this be epic?  Is it possible from zStart's end?  Could you bring it up with Quigibo if it is?

That looks awesome.  The checkpoint flag is especially boss.

I think On + + is the best option.  What would it replace?  (I forgot D: )

Yes! Yes!!

Not complaining, but I just lost 3 respect but it didn't show up on the list. Does it take time to update?
Yup, Darl's right.  The only way Netham was even able to make the list you see was to use data that does not store the timestamp. :/

Update:  We decided to remove the limit on respect points, so now everyone can see how much respect he/she has.

TBO_Yeong, remember the power of ALPHA.
That was never the problem for me.  I was just never able to get up to the top of the T from within the level.

I really like the new one.  It's a very epic avatar, or album cover, for that matter.

That's incredible.
The penguin, before this, were you even sure the level was beatable?
