I like the layout on whiteroom. looks pretty fun to play too.

reminds me of some of the neal&bob (jester and panzer) maps that were made for q2, in monochrome or solid color textures.

I think those were pointed out back when I did White Room. It's a cool effect, I wish more maps would do abstract themes. 

since we're being slightly less caustic, here's a simple 1v1/DM map that I made for q2 with a bit of a q1 feel:

This thread has probably wasted over a day of our collective lives.

Nobody can get you that time back.

So, STFU. 

make me. 

So finally we can put a name on you: http://dervish.tastyspleen.net/

Hi Dervish.

Judging by your posts at that Q2 board you seem like a mostly positive and nice guy. How about we all pretend nothing happened and give you a chance to start over? 

I figured I'd get outed with a map download, but w/e. :)


I'm not ashamed of anything that's been said here, so there's nothin to pretend about on my end.

for the record, I regularly get into e-arguments with people when I feel they're being lame or overly antagonistic, and I don't harbor ill will towards anyone over them. (including you guys)

they're just bits in cyberspace that make up words on a screen, so getting worked up is kinda out of the question. 

I find that attitude to be annoying but it's not worth arguing over. They're still words and words still mean things. When you type insults at someone it doesn't mean anything less than if you said it to their face - you're still insulting that person and people should feel accountable for the stuff they say online. IMO. 

"eat shit" 

Yeah. I didn't say I was immune and I take responsbility for that. I'm not going to say that it's the internet so it doesn't matter or whatever usually gets said. At the time, I meant that. You were a fucking asshole and I was abusing you. 

We set up a turtle map 1-on-1 competition, Willem vs Dervish, the judges will be Vondur, Shambler, czg, R.P.G., myself, biff, gibbie, Pope, mad_fox and Drew. And negke. And also generic. Okay. Now, for the rules:

1.) Each map must have at least 250 killable enemies.

2.) The map must last at least 17 minutes of game time minimum.

3.) Custom texture set, hand drawn by each participant.

4.) A 20-page explanation of the theme of the map and how it extends itself to the philosophical ideas of Kant.

5.) A secret exit to another turtlemap with a different custom texture set.

6.) A robot. A kick ass robot.

Although there are judges, the winner will be decided solely by how much shit they can talk.

GO! 

"3.) Custom texture set, hand drawn by each participant."

Does it count if every texture is a scanned picture of me giving the player the finger? 

Well I can see how it would be relevant to Kant ... so yes. Yes you can. 

I didn't mean to imply that words on screens have NO meaning, just that for me, there is an emotional disconnect when it comes to typing at people.

You're absolutely right that accountability is the same no matter what the medium.

I just don't see a point in staying angry or holding grudges about what someone says about/to me, who I will never meet and who will probably have no physical affect on my life.

Considering that it is nearly impossible to flawlessly divine the motivations of people when they type something on the 'net, it's not worth it to me to be deeply offended. 

Why Kant? I reckon Derrida tbh, he did loads of stuff on zombies for a start (automata pwn). Zwiffle makes a valid point tho...

Oh, and;

I didn't say they picked on him specifically because he is new

and many of you seemingly did so intentionally because he was a newb and you knew you could trash him with impunity

Then there was something about reading comprehension... 

It wasn't that nothing happened as you seem to be implying.

Well Technically, Nothing Actually Happened.


Go fuck yourself buddy. You're [...] not very good at this trolling thing you're trying to do 

Maybe you'll snag a little fishy with that..


As you well know, anyone can take shit out of context and try to manufacture conflicts.

It takes an idiot like you to do it that poorly tho. 

It used to go 'neigh' but now it just leaks a bit more congealed blood with each smack. And raises flies.

Although . . . sad to see everything calm down and become slightly more civilised. 

Type it in yourself.

While you're doing it tho, watch the spelling errors or one of these guys will definitely jump all over it, flailing madly in an attempt to start more flames. 

I thought we were past this? Are you interested in contributing meaningfully here or not? 

We definitely left it in the dust a couple hours ago, the second you left a semi-neutral reply.

I'm not tryin to start anything.. just poking some fun with ijed, in a playful manner, while nonentity tries to troll me unsuccessfully.

as to the second question, haven't I already? 

While you're doing it tho, watch the spelling errors or one of these guys will definitely jump all over it, flailing madly in an attempt to start more flames.

Perhaps you should not call people names when can't manage to correctly use the english language to do so. 

^
notice nonentity's complete lack of any provocation to post about me, and how he continues to do so regardless of that fact.

This would be what a troll does, who thinks that if he gets you to reply, "he wins".

Sadly, he doesn't seem to realize that his behavior really comes off as him swinging from my dick, rather than him winning something. 

Luckily I'm not self conscious about my IQ.

Going to add Q1 to list of mapped games? Speedmapping?






Going to watch Fox or UFC now seeing as the circus has closed :/ 

Seeing as it's national riot day here in Chile, maybe just turn on the news.
