Temba, I never said we don't waste time here at SL. I said we are more serious about wasting time!

MarkG --

Get that off topic garbage out of here! Start a thread about that in the HAC if you want me to respond!

well since this is an on topic thread (apparently) i will use it the best i can, becuase like techumseh said, here at sleague we don't waste time.

Here are some notes i made while reviewing the Cormwell scenario. Let me know what you think fo them. I will try to explain them so they make sense to you.

1 ) cool sound set up utility!

Jeszenka, Allard and Jesus (i think) have used this successfully in the past and i am glad to see someone else using it now!

2 ) pink floyd! yes! yes! yes!

this is in reference to the pink floyd song that plays in the beginning of the scneario. my only concern is that the "time to go" part at the end could be cut to save space. a minor niggle.

3 ) good background!

in icons.bmp, the background for events text and starting dates and such.

4 ) dragoon graphic, much better choices out there

the dragoon was one of the lower quality graphics in civ2 to begin with, so i am surprised that it was kept in this scenario, which does have some good graphics in it.

5 ) lighten civ color for Royalists

the royalists were too dark blue, i found it difficult to read the city sizes and names sometimes.

6 ) "Archbishop" of the scots?

this may be historical, but i don't know. it seems a little odd to me!

7 ) technology can be traded! should set preqs to no, no.

this bug destroys the scenario! obviously the roundheads and cavaliers cant talk to each other but they can with the scots! setting the scots tech, royalist tech, and parliment tech to no, no, instead of nil, nil will solve this. until this is fixed the scenario is broken!

8 ) scoring already complete?

it seems strange to me.

9 ) france is empty. barbarians?

I think barbarian units and cities could be placed in france. that way it could be invaded by the english, but would never really attack.

10 ) many recycled (from orgiinal) grahpics!

oceans, units, terrains, i think that there are better graphics on the net! these should be used instead!

it is from these points that i will base my review for the sleague. any comments by anyone?

I refuse to let on topic comments be censored. This form is the sleagues, JUST the sleagues. If you don't like that maybe sleague should leave apolyton

I nominate Mr. Jeszenka because, according to Narck, he has posted over 2000 times in just one forum. Doesn't that merit the "Apolytoner of the season"?

Hey, I was the first person to get to 2000 posts and then I really mellowed in my posting habits. Then History049 surpassed me and eventually most of the other old-timers.:-)

This is stupid Mark, why on the Sleague forum? I stopped looking in the God damned Off Topic forum to avoid crap like this.

P.S. I was the first person outside DanQ's welcome message to post on these forums... and no respect!

Benedetti, Darth, separating the forums into sections for this vote for all the people who post on the apolyton forums(serious and not serious), we had a "other" section which would include all the "hosted" and "other" forums except the OT. since we were to have a nomination thread in each section, the right place to be was the SL, which has the bigest community. to be more specific let's see which exactly forums this "other" secton has and why this is actually an SL thing now:
gameleague(almost noone posts there unfortunately)
sleague
had(basically the same with sl)
civ comparison(no standard people, nominations)
clash(small, again no big community)
apolyton(duh!)
s&d(it now has it's own section)

so what does that leave us???
SL!

posts with s&d nominations deleted, posts and parts of posts about the cromwell scenario moved to separate thread.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Narck speaks as if he has some sort of god given authority around here... interesting, since I've never seen him make an on topic post about scenarios.

techumseh,

do you know of any other cromwell scenarios? Usually when i think of the english civil war i think of the war of the roses. I liked the terrain artwork nickC had in his wotr scenario.

Narck is the organizer of the Vote.....
his only authority is of course just to make this thing happen....
and that's what he's doing....

btw, the topic of this forum is Scenario League not scenarios

Ahh well. I'm sorry something I created upset you folks so much. Believe me, the intent was to provide you with a mechanism by which one person who is repected by his friends can be noticed for his achievements before everyone at Apolyton. I thought that would be a good thing, and it seems to be, generally. One thing I've learned in life is that work and ideas are not universally appreciated.
I hope you all have a good time with your scenarios.

MJ,

Come on man, surely you will realize that this thread is different from the others in this forum? I never made an on topic post here, because this stuff doesn't interest me. But with Markos' and Dan's approval for this contest, I am active (in this forum) in this thread only. What's the big problem with that? I am not some "god given authority" around here, but like Markos said, I need to organize this contest, so when you start posting stuff about a Cromwell scenario, it seems rather obvious that I will object, don't you think.

Also, if you don't like this, there is absolutely no reason for you to keep clicking on this thread. It's only 1 thread in the whole scenario league that deals with this issue. I really fail to see the problem with that.

OK, folks, Markos and I talked it over and it looks like people would be happier if we moved this to the OT. So, if you want to vote, go ahead and click on the thread over there. http://apolyton.net/forums/Forum23/HTML/006091.html
