a) stupid feature?
b) nice idea, terrible presentation at the moment?
c) fix the slow frontpage instead?
d) awesome feature but too shy to say so?
I am not sure this would be a useful feature because when I go to your site I want to see the comments, read the review and play the map. Also from a casual gamers POV the engine mess with all the different protocols is not good. It would be more useful to show what engines the demo will work with than showing protocol numbers.
I certainly agree the zip file contents panel should be a collapsed by default, it never seems relevant to me. I would prefer if there was a way to get more feedback / comments on maps. Maybe get some editors to do a focus on previous maps on the front page. Like a classic map review but by several authors highlighting the different strengths.

Getting 100% walk-throughs was actually my secret plan. I thought adding first runs would be good but now I just thought really hard and indeed, I cannot remember watching someone else's.
Externalising the upload form would be ideal but my code mess does not really work that way... :/
How about limiting to 100% single-segment demos in protocol 15, 10002 and 666?
sock, theoretically everyone can edit the wiki and submit news, I'd love more active participation! I should probably add a "recent comments/ratings" feed.

Sounds good.
Youtube links to custom gamer videos in the description as well...
 Front Page Activity

would be awesome, like what lvldesign does, you can see who has downloaded something or made a comment. Also having a big feature map on the front page would be perfect. I am slowly working my way through the previous maps and there are some really cool stuff, just it feels buried to me on your site.
theoretically everyone can edit the wiki and submit news Sorry I am not really into wiki stuff but I certainly will do a dual review format with someone else. It would be awesome to go back through the past maps and really break them down visually/gameplay wise.

updated to make it walkthrough demos!

 It's A Brilliant Idea

I love it!
I think it's just fine, but if you were worried about a large cascade of demos you could put it in the footer.

I pruned the demos so now it is ready for real uploads.
 On Second Try Maybe

I have uploaded 8 100% demos so far, what about <you>? :)

https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/ now displays a better metric for "average rating", the bayesian average. That takes the number of votes and the global average etc into account (I think). Guess who is top #1? :)
So far 3 different people uploaded 100% demos, all people with nicknames that start with S. We are a specal breed!

The top map should be Honey by CZG, honestly I can't believe there are people who gave that map less than 5 out 5! Internet voting is always weird on any site. :/

Sorry but, 1 star...
 I Wouldnt Take Much Notice
of the ratings, I noticed my map is below a couple of maps with only 3 hearts.
But backstein is undoubtedly one of the best maps, though I think I liked both ITS and Midnight Stalker the most out of your releases.

I don't know of anyone here (not that I'm particularly well-informed) that doesn't think that "1997 style" can be awesome (not that your maps are that, plus you introduce crazy new stuff that no one else would).
The wild creativity without any established standards of that early period was great.
If what you were saying with the floppy disk comment is you like the cheesiness of Quake, I kind of agree. The latest game will always have smooth beautiful stuff for map design.
 I Can't Believe

Make sure you all watch my 100% demo on scampsp1 so you can learn where all the secrets are and how best to defeat all the enemies!

it is somewhat related to an allocated memory
i guess "heapsize 32768" or higher should do the trick
also where are those 100% demos, could't find any

be aware that ~4.7 is the highest rating a map can have or something. maybe I should scale the numbers to 5.
on each map page on the left if there are any. or https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/log.php

Can be fixed with command line on any engine, or is automatically handled on some
 So Basically
some dude is down-rating maps because he's a complete ass?
#80 posted by Spirit on 2013/10/04 21:17:49
that was a long time ago and dealt with. more more natural ratings will easily leverage those votes.

if they max out at 4.7 you should definitely scale them otherwise you should just make it 4.7 out of 4.7 ;)
