Indie Game Review Tournament

[NewClassic_v1legacy]

Due to a bit of a scheduling nightmare, it's been pushed back to Tuesday. Apologies for the inconvenience guys.

Can we get a link to it here or will it be easy to spot when its up?

It should be easy to spot, but I'll link it here and in the opening posts as well.

ROUND ONE, Part One [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/jump/326.177043.5084941] is up. Everyone head over and get your votes in. And keep an eye out for upcoming parts, as each round may have several parts. Especially the early ones.

Aha, crap i got screwed

Didn't expect to win, though wouldn't have forgiven myself if i didn't try, one late night review hours from the deadline isnt a good idea for any project

I wouldn't say that for certain. It's how I got my Vault Legend title.

Hey, while I wasn't paying attention to this thread, Round ONE: Part Two is up. You can find that thread here [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.178211-Indie-Game-Review-Contest-Round-ONE-cont].

Round One, part one is now 404'd.
I was going to reread the entires before Round Two started, but the auto-deletion of locked threads means I can't ;-;

Wait, if each round gets locked (and presumably this thread too, once the tournament is over), will all record of the tournament's existence be inadvertently purged from the site by an overzealous database cleanup script?

The case may be. I'll see what I can do to avoid that, but I can't guarantee anything. I'll talk with Kuliani.

Hmm, I don't remember locking those, but I went ahead and unlocked the second round as that seemed to be locked as well.

Can we do a review on a demo of a game seeing as how some/most of download indie games do cost money?

Probably not since the competition is already under way.

And Probably not in the first place.

Speaking of underway, what's the sitch Nuke?

 

[Say Anything]

Ehhhh, when Nuke finished the last round he said the next would be up Monday. It's our fault for assuming he meant last week Monday or even this week Monday. I believe he was referring to Monday, October 20, 2014.

 

[Lord Krunk]

I believe he was referring to Monday, October 20, 2014.

But haven't you heard all the conspiracy theories? The world's gonna end 2 years before that date!

Ooh, how I hate perpetual cliffhangers. Now I know how Firefly fans feel.

 

[Say Anything]

Nothing? Not even an apology?

 

[Stranger of Sorts]

Nothing? Not even an apology?

I was thinking this, isn't this say, a little insulting to all those that entered? Get your act together Nuke I want to see these reviews that people have spent a lot of their time on.

 

[NewClassic_v1legacy]

Yeah, been a bit of a mess over here. Safe to say that I've had a pretty good dialog going with my staff contact throughout this contest, and things were going more smoothly than I ever could've hoped for. Since Round 1 ended, I got some of my things together, and pieced things together as best I could in anticipation for Round 2.

The day the round was supposed to go up, I got slammed. When I finally could get a breathing moment, my contact was nowhere to be found. I imagine they're even busier than I am. Either way, I've been fighting to keep my weekday schedule in check while hoping to be on early enough to catch them during business hours.

Either way, the event isn't closed down, and I'm hoping to have it all hinged and posted on Monday, but I won't know until the day's here. If I'm late, there's really no one to blame but myself. Regardless, I don't have any sort of disrespect for you guys, and I still have an imperial ton of things written down and prepared, but I want to get the OK from on-high and make sure everything's squared away before proceeding.

But yeah, I'm sorry I've been so seemingly spaced out, but I do accept that I botched. For that, I'm sorry. Either way, contest is still on, if not on indeterminate delay. I'm doing my best to hammer it down.

Either way, I'm working guys.

 

[HSIAMetalKing]

I'm k-kinda busy, k-kinda busy-- sorry I can not hear you I'm kinda biz-ay~

 

[Pimppeter2]

Good to hear!

Though, I am a bit disappointed that we won't get to make conspiracy theories on the subject. I had a good list planned out, including one where Nuke and Kuliani ran away to Mexico and sold the reviews to Banditos.

Shucks.
