everyone must have been out :)

I just got in to work, so that's my excuse. 

.. 

Convert UT2004's DM-Roughinery to q1!

"The remnant of an old refinery now serves as a location for your duels. Use its intricate layout to your advantage and don't lose track of your enemy."

It plays kind of like aerowalk... 

 

Come up with an original layout and leave UT2k4 alone completely. 

it's already been ported to sauerbraten; you could play that...

Now contribute! :) 

It looks as if the contribute to the revieuws has become much simpeler. I like that.
I only anounce, because I remember myself sitting spending some hours for a few revieuws.

Sorry I can't find nothing of that content back. Even the links to my homepage have gone.
Not that I want to argue, only see my contribute retired.

But of course: This archive is about the content not the people behind it. 

Well, your reviews were in a quite different style from what is wanted (and available in the all other reviews) for the site. So I took my time and re-reviewed them all. Sorry about that.

Yes, it's about the content and I will not add descriptions that really don't fit. Instead I will take my time to re-review those maps again.

Surely I will add links to your homepage on said reviews, the only reason for their absence is that there was nothing about it in the readme files. 

I had a hard chunq on that comment for Grunt:
Unfortunately it's more quantity than quality.

nothing on the readme files?.......H� come on!!!
You replied you were bizzy on gaming, were a lazy bone and I had to remind you again.

There are a lot of levels there, and they all need to have a suscription, but don't ask for peoples contibution if you make your own part of it! 

Anyone know how I get the nailgun near the start on fmb4? I found lots of nails already couldn't get past the bars. Might be some fullbright button in shadows which I cannot see. 

 

It's about DRAMA :�����( 

Well, we talked via mail. I would have no problem doing it in "public".

Bloody hell, I am doing this for fun, just like mappers/coders work on their stuff for their satisfaction and fulfillment.

It's not like I reject stuff on a personal base or prejudice. If you don't like my reviews then go ahead submit different ones. Unless I feel they are very wrong I will not reject them. Yes, even if it's hours of my work I overwrite. However it would be nicer to review maps that are no reviewed yet for obvious reasons.

Just make sure your submissions are in somewhat decent english. (And without the script working with all the fields was nasty.) I will not spend my time fixing.

Maybe I should go a different approach and not review bad maps (whatever they are) but remove them from the listings so my rating is always positive. I could do like Shambler (wise man!) and have some minimum criteria.

Enough drama? 

The last paragraph is pure cynism of course. 

I like the short reviews

because I usually don't read longer reviews:
Basically I want to play maps and not "read" them.

Example:
longer review: The quality of the map xy is decreasing, because 1).., 2),.. 3),... gameplay was ........

short review: Nice, idbase, author...
And after i played the map I know that the quality is decreasing without reading a longer review

Longer reviews are mainly interesting for those who made the maps to get feedback. 

Nobody asked for a public discourse.
Just for clarification: Those are not reviews, just simple descriptions giving very brief information on a map's size, texture theme and sometimes extra stuff if necessary. What really counts is the author's name, release date and, most importantly, the screenshot. 

If the map is called 'nice' 'poor' 'neat' in its description then its been reviewed, no matter how quickly.

It's a nice guide to what's worth downloading, depending on your level of interest, without opening a full review only to skip to the end to see the summation and avoid spoiling the first playthrough.

The new description system seems easy enough to input into, but I tried one for one of my own maps (tpof, average, its a turtlemap, needs Quoth) and it seems like the link is broken.

Anyhow, I thought func was the place for public discourse? 

I sended you an email because I thought it was your case. I first had it on func_msgboard but I had the feeling that wasn't the place for it.

I won't ask your opinion again about revieuws. As your email explained not much more than your statement on keeping it so.

I can send you a nailgun if it helps the discussion here, but stay on toppic. You ask for contribution, you get it, but don't be so rude to lay it aside and ask me to remind you.
I don't mind, I don't want a flame war on this.
I thought I could be of help in some way. All I receive is someone who after months suddenly starts working on his site and decides he wants a decent overvieuw. Don't blame me on my bad language, change the arguement of the missing links of the maps to a link of the homesite. You want your site with quake maps being shortly reviewed, alright... I send you a telegram.

There is only one statement that stays very clear for me, as it is written as discription of grunt grenedin:

it's more about quantity than quality.

and that hurts, because it is the same statement you append to the whole shubhub site.
I won't mind, go ahead...same reason why I'll never make a speedmap, you name it. 

After the first Vore turn right (don't go up the stairs) and go into the dark, you can hear the secret. There is a transporter in the corner under the stairs. Go through, push the button and raise the bars. 

it's really annoying guys 

...you should put some ice on that. There's this guy ELEK, he might be able to help you with it... 

I got bit by mosquitos 7 times on my left calf muscle, 5 times on my right one, once on my right elbow, once on my right pinky, 3 times on my left arm and twice on my neck.

Take it like a man.
