Resources / Cage Matches.
Posted on October 01, 2006 at 22:38

Hey. How's it going?
I got the Referral Badge. Pretty kick-ass. I don't know who I referred, though.
I enrolled at the Game Programming University. I'm taking a course on Euphoria. (GPU)
I also might be teaching what you could call an Advanced GML course there. By that, I mean it will use registered GML Functions to make games entirely in the Creation Code of a room. This will be for Advanced GM Users, programmers looking into GM, and people who just don't like clicking a lot. Hopefully, I'll be able to start teaching this soon.
That leads me to the title. If I teach this class, I am gonna need people that could make sprites, animations, and small songs. This is because, to my knowledge, I need to provide students with resources. If you are interested, please post here. If you want details, I will post them as soon as my curriculum is finished. Then, I'll have to make sure I get the course approved. If I don't, I'll most likely hold a class somewhere other than GPU.
Also, with this whole Cage Match thing going on:
I posted in the recent news post, as well as in the Cage Match topic, this:

Quote

The Cage Match in itself has become a mockery, however. Ever since DToD made it.

Frankly, I wouldn't see a problem had you have gone:
"columnsX, a game by a 64Digits admin, featuring several 64Digits members, made it into the GMC Cagematch. You might want to check it out; Hopefully this will increase 64Digits popularity."

But, you told people to vote for your own game. People called you out on it. So, this time, you told them to play them both, then vote for your own.

And as for not truely being a Cage Match Winner, it shouldn't even be counted as a Cage Match Contestant. Chiken personally showed his game to the previous loser, who then accepted Chiken's game. Chiken then chose ColumnsX because it supported 64Digits, and he is in it.

As much as I dislike the GMC, and like cheating the system, I don't think any of the recent Cage Match's have counted for shit. This has been unfair to Mr. Chubigans, and now FredFredrickson. Hopefully, JakeX, when you are out of the Cage Match, you don't choose a game for it's creator.

This brings me to the point of this week's Cage Match. Many members are complaining, because Evolites is past the 10 week deadline. Look at the people making these claims. They are the same people that voted for ColumsnX because they are "Loyal to 64Digits." Isn't that just the kettle calling the pot black?


Frankly, I agree with what I am saying. I think it's bullshit what has happened in the last 3 Cage Matches. It's completely and utterly ridiculous. And whenever I point this out, I get biased comments from both sides, often similar to examples I use. So, frankly, if I point out the fact that the Cage Matches are more rigged than the 2004 election, don't go
"WELL MY VOTE WASN'T BIASED!! I PLAYED THEM BOTH!!!"
Honestly, I don't give a rat's ass. If your vote wasn't biased, congratsulations. Go fuck a cow. If it was biased, you are just contributing to the pile of steaming horseshit that goes on behind the scenes at the Cage Matches. I pity everybody involved in the Cage Matches, nowadays.
Also, I just managed to salvage my iPod. I picked it up, and it was running Apple's OS, so I am replacing all the files with my backup.

So, that's my blog, I guess.

Heh, wow. You type a lot like Maddox(too much swearing). XD
Good point though.

Heh.

You're right. A lot of those votes were probably biased... I'm just glad I know mine weren't.

Mastermind, you are a dumbshit. Just because I say fuck does not make me Maddox. You read to much Maddox. Get a fucking life.

Your course thing sounds interesting... shame I can't do any of those things for crap.

I mean you SWEAR a lot, not that you just say fuck and it makes you maddox.

This is what I mean:

And I don't mean it in a bad way. Sides, I read maddox articles when 64D was down, not all the time.

I honestly can't recall a single instance I've voted in one, aside from an occasional 'null' to peek at the results. I'm honestly surprised it still exists, after the various scams. (Members registering accounts just to vote, etc.)

As far as referrals, I've gotten one of them also. A GMC member PM'd me thanking me for feedback, so I referred him here for something other than the usual crap replies that are given over there ^_~

Why is it that I always get quoted negatively? XD

I haven't seen you quoted at all, here.

Also, Mastermind, you are acting like Maddox owns sarcasm. Everyone knows Takagi trademarked it.

I voted for ColumnsX AFTER PLAYING BOTH GAMES. I made sure that my vote was unbiased.

Actually, I wasn't entirely referring to you. I actually got a PM on the GMC about it, as well.

Yeah, following the DtoD thing, and then the Chiken Scandal, the cagematch has pretty much become a playground for favoritism and cheating. Not much to do about though, unfortunately.

By the way... your avatar looks like a Magic Eye image. Razz

I agree, I feel that ColumnsX votes are mostly "liek, look, 64D freind!11oneone!" That's a total bias. I voted CsX for reasons of enjoyment, and to be honest, I hate simulators.
Posted by Takagi October 02, 2006 0:28 - 6.7 years ago

Yeah, I did vote for ColumnsX, and that's why it bothers me when people go "OH U JUST HATE CSX!!!" Whenever I point out some of this stuff. I voted it because I could play it for like, 10 minutes at a time. I did like Evolites, but it didn't get fun for at least an hour, when you had your Evolites super-evolved.

And wow, Fred, now that you mention it, it does...

You ever step back and think that maybe ColumnsX is a decent game? Or is it automatically undeserving just because Chiken chose it? Yeah, the cagematch is more broken than a watermelon thrown off of the CN Tower, but you can stop acting like it's Jake's fault.

Oh, and, how many GMC members think that FredFredrickson is God's gift to Game Maker, and that all his games are perfection in binary form?

It sounds like you hate ColumnsX just because it was made by a fellow 64D'er. You act like Chiken never played it.

And personally, I wouldnt even consider Evolites a game. Its a piece of shit, it's just polished alot. Theres really no gameplay value in watching circles eat, poop, and die. It could have been something if there was actually more content than a few dots with pointless stats, but there isnt. Its not unfair to him, because he dosent even have a game. At most, its an example that looks pretty.

I actually voted for columns X just because I had fun with it. Yes I played evolites it was cool for a bit, but not much to do unlike the Sims or other simulation games.
Posted by Alx October 02, 2006 11:17 - 6.6 years ago

Can you people fucking read? I said that I liked ColumnsX, hell, I even voted for it! I'm just saying that I don't like waht's been going on. Like that news post, for example. The stickied blog. And everybody going "SUPPORT 64DIGITS!!! VOTE COLUMNSX!!!".


And deepermeaning, it's common knowledge that you are JakeX's second account.
