Guys, as I said in my earlier post. It's allright. The only thing that I'll ask from now on is that you remove the "but I thought SG would win" on your posts (that only makes everything worse because that phrase can only tend to increase my distrust on the judging)
So, as I said before, just give me some time. Please. I really need to think, my emotions are all mixed now so that's why I'm acting strangely. And that's why I'll not be as active for a few days, at least till I upload the Beta5.
By the way, Erimgard can confirm that even between all of this, I'm still currently fixing bugs and all of that evil stuff on the Beta, hope this means something...
Ehhhmmm... Nothing more... Thanks.
Zel I'm done being nice with you.
Let me ask you, WHY are you emotions all "mixed up". First off, you knew how this contest worked, especially this round. You KNEW (or at least pretended to know) that you had the chance of not winning. If anything, this post has exposed your true colors, and I'm not happy at all.
Why are you getting all upset and crazy over a CONTEST THAT YOU GOT SECOND PLACE IN? I thought you were going to win too, would I get all "Crazy" with emotions if I didn't win? No. Did Earthvisitor? No. I was expecting second or third, which would just be fine, remember, it was great to just GET THIS FAR.
Theres a difference between popularity and how good something is, just because something is more popular than something else, doesn't mean it's better. The judging from what I believe, was used to avoid votes people who only played one hack and automatically voted for that hack. I told Hiroshi to tell all the judges to forget about me and just focus on the hack itself, as if someone else they didn't even know made it.
So SUCK IT UP AND MOVE ON. I'm done with you and everyone else crying that their hack didn't win. Would you all be hoping for a GBA/GBC category if my hack got second? Probably not.
I suggest this thread to be closed, I'm starting to feel a negative creep

I hack not for competition, just to make people happy, and you should too.
Hmm...

CBM, you went too far there now...
I do understand how zel feels, though, and I guess you'll need to understand him, too...
*sigh* no matter... I'll be looking forward towards the old, happy, (evil) and approachable zel to be back on. :)
I guess we do need to leave what's in the past behind and just look forward towards tomorrow.
Sadly that's how many things are done in the world. Widespread votes are easy to influence and take tons of time and effort so a few are picked to represent the whole. Just look at American Idol. Three judges who are trained to be realistic and unbiased (something popular vote is incapable of, EVER). The Olympics? Same thing, they use a few judges instead of the huge crowds watching the events. Why? The judges know what to base results on, not just pick a quick fav like the audience.I still think that three people dont represent the feeling of the hacking community, but still, if that's how the rules are gonna be, I will abide them this time.
