Breezeep posted at August 19th 1:59 (func_ time). This means the jam ended August 20th at 1:59 (func_ time) Hell he even accepted dumptruck and naits maps late. Newhouse posted his 3 hours after Naitelveni who was already 1.5 hours late. Discussion over. Youre stating that the jam only lasted 9 hours.
Since the jam was announced at 1:59 (func_ time) that means 10 hours would be 14:00 (func_ time). People submitted their maps, which ended up in the pack, well past the 10 hour mark you are stating. I honestly feel slight "schadenfreude" for even having to spell this out like this. Yes, the discussion was over, why do you feel the need to bring it back up?
And why do you persistently choose to ignore the damn fact that he TOLD EVERYONE in his OP that the deadline was 12:00? Youre stating that the jam only lasted 9 hours. Uhhh... what?!? "Yes, the discussion was over, why do you feel the need to bring it back up?"
Says the guy still insisiting breezeep ended the jam earlier. It was 24 hours long. Time stamps on func prove it. Why do you choose to ignore the timestamps on func that prove it lasted beyond 24 hours and that telling time zones across multiple timezones is hard? He said 24 hrs and thats all that matters. Lookat dumptruck and naitelvenis timestamps and compare them to the announcement post. Even those were beyond the 24 hr period. Youre pedantic to a point that doesnt matter. He messed up telling the time zones but did mention it was 24 hrs which is all that matters...cause it lasted 24+ hrs Get over it. Im done discussing this. Surely this is all far less important than the fact that someone made a map and that's a good thing.
I don't care who is wrong and who is right in this discussion; I think it's great that Breezeep organised the event and I think it's great that people made maps for it, including NewHouse. So NewHouse's map missed the deadline for whatever reason (obviously just some misunderstanding) -- so what? If it's important that it be left out of the sm179 pack, so be it, but it's silly to pretend it doesn't exist. Just treat it as a separate release (like sm170_negke or sm171_negke, for instance). The 2017 spreadsheet is now a little more robust:
- Added a separate count excluding speedmaps. With this added I re-listed the map counts from the previous years as they were already made to exclude speedmaps and other edge cases. - Added links to every release and marked the ones not on Quaddicted (wtf??) as red. - Split up the previously grouped items from hexcalk and Qmaster into separate ones. This blew up the January list so I tightened up the spreadsheet a little. - Added block. Jury's still out on sm179_newhouse, awaiting for some form of an official release. If I release my older episode that will make 5 more maps (or was it 6...I think I had a bonus map in there).
If I finish my egyptian coagula map, egyptian pyramid thing, subterranean mine factory, and my knave jam map...that will be another 4. Then there's my unnamed "uber episode" project but that will be longer, even as a collaborative effort I'd imagine. Probly not this year but will need about 14 maps of which I have starts to 3. Anyone can join this...I still need to upload my plan and the overview map (literal map) of the world and player journey path...once I get good signal. Says the guy still insisiting breezeep ended the jam earlier.
Oboy... Are you trying to make me mad? Because this shit is really starting to look like it. Firstly, you brought it back up, I only replied to OTP with no intention of reviving this debate. Secondly, how is it so fucking hard to understand that I meant earlier THAN THE FUCKING ANNOUNCED DEADLINE? Stop splitting hair with your timestamp calculation bullshit. The gist of it is that he provided a wrong deadline that led to NewHouse's map not being included. You can stand up for Breezeep_ all you want (like he can't do that himself...) but this is NOT NewHouse's fault. Can someone please submit sm179_newhouse to Quaddicted? I would but my computer is still broken.
I insisted that the session was to last for 24 hours, UTC. I know I screwed up at first with the initial deadline, but you're blowing this issue out of proportion TBH. I will try to ensure that I don't screw up deadline dates for the next session, happening sometime this month.
Big fucking deal.
1) The post said "You have 24 hours". Adding a 1 to the day in the timestamp is hardly "calculation bullshit." 2) Everybody on Discord who knew about the event taking place knew that it would be a 24 hour mapping event. Q.E.D. If I don't get my speed I won't catch my map!
Some maps speeds themselves back. Let's make a "palindrome" theme! Run backwards to the start, uh.., oh no. That's how it begins. It could be awesome to make the vorelings (these little pesky three legs guys) as pets in Quake. I mean, when they attack you, bitting your knee, and you don't kill them but fead them instead with some other monsters bodies, they could turn into "friends", following you without attacking until they get killed by another monster.
They are my favorite monsters in modern Quake. They're so hilarious. The exploding balls of Sepulcher are also awesome ! I don't want to kill'em ! could be possible with SoA's Horn of conjuring put into Quoth. But poor voreling wouldn't last long.
