Compared to that stuff, most of us wouldn't stand a chance winning at all. I had my doubts about entering my levels, since with guys like Alemar dropping in just because of the prizes, none of us stands a real chance anymore, if they succeeds. When I thought about that, I figured if they succeed indeed and there's a good chance they don't succeed at all, so I'll give it a try. It's not that I don't want them to succeed, but I think it would be a shame if some outsider, who could care less about FPSC or this community and only came for the pizes, would win the competition, I rather see on we know well win.
What I mean by them not succeeding, is that in the end, FPSC will let them down, just as it let all of us down, until we learned to use it and that took more then a few months. That's why I entered, while guys like Alemar and the others that only came for the prizes, create stunning looking entities, segments and so on, they do have a huge disadvantage..... they don't know FPSC. They're most likely going to make same mistakes as we did in the beginning and while the games may look stunning, they may be full of issues. So I decided to enter. Our games may not look as good, but chances are that when it comes to gameplay we do have the edge, since we've been using FPSC long enough.
So I'm hoping that the regular FPSC users will win the prizes and not the 'newcomers' who only drop in to win and leave after that again, never contributing anything to FPSC or it's community.
I do hope it doesn't take ages for the judging to finish!
Anyone else who entered?
