Well-Actually War Trall BainIhrno Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 It seems like a number of scenarios have been released since the 9th Contest, and I was thinking of having a general contest basically to run the scenarios against each other. Many of them have been made for short contests, but some haven't, and since we do have quite a bit of new scenarios that have built up, I'd like to see how they do against each other. The prospective scenarios: Threnody (Lazarus) Waterweb (Handyman) The Crusaders (Bain) (BOE Scenario) Black Crown: Part I (Duck) Strange Gildra (BJ Earles) The Cradle (BJ Earles) Warp (Ephesos) The Seige of Copperpeak (Ephesos) Out of Sight (Nikki) The Staff (Slack) Nobody's Heroes (Kelandon) Sorcerer's Apprentice (Niemand) The Eternal (Nikki) The Triple Valley (Iffy) Quarhag Pass (Smoo ) The Ritual of Registration (Nemesis) Incorruptible (Tridash) Turn That Frown Upside-Down (Duck) HIM: Wolf at the Door (Thralni) Turn the Frown Upside Down II (Duck) Enemy at the Gates (Metatron) Gluckcluck (Enraged Slith) Always on Your Day Off! (Nicothodes) To Hell in a Handbasket (Nemesis) Oops (Dintiradan) Pilgrimage to Thakos (Sylae Correll) (BOE Scenario) Okay, that should be all of them more as they come. I'd probably wait until after Duck's contest to start this, if people are interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easygoing Eyebeast Jerakeen Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Niemand is apparently too modest to point out that you omitted The Sorcerer's Apprentice. There may be others...when was the 9th contest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall BainIhrno Posted July 30, 2011 Author Share Posted July 30, 2011 Basically I'm trying to dig up everything released since the 9th Contest (which was August-September 2008). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Celtic Minstrel Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Now this sounds like a good incentive to finally release Melliput Mobsters... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I was trying to avoid admitting that it's in semi-released limbo. . . and that I should have corrected that months ago. Uh, no, wait, you were right about the modesty thing. Yeah. EDIT: Okay, now it's released. Sorry that took so long. Also, it seems that there are other entries from the same contest to be considered, namely 'Oops', 'The Black Crown, Part 1', and 'Pilgrimage to Thrakos'. CM should get an official copy of Melliput Mobsters out so that it can be sensibly included as well. Hint, hint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall BainIhrno Posted July 30, 2011 Author Share Posted July 30, 2011 It's on now, don't know how I forgot that one. EDIT: If this seems like a go, I could start it now actually, and set the deadline for the end of the year in case anyone does actually want to make a scenario.

Yeah, part of why I wanted to have a contest was to increase feedback to scenarios. I thought about proposing a ratings contest too, but I've proposed it before and it's gone nowhere.
