to work the system but still have the ppl's word, like a democratic republic

you acting all high and mighty is a kind of funny...T3chno

but karmap0lice, you should really stop trying to provoke something. Something lord_day says has more authority than what you say. /end

Okay, as for the map: I thought it was just generic. The Boo drones (or whatever they're called) contributed very little because rarely, if ever, they came close to the ninja. The DDA itself was pretty short too, but that's something I disregard because I know keeping a DDA going for a while is difficult. I just hoped it would have some more unique things to it.

As for the map being featured: I wouldn't have featured it, but if you scroll down to GTM's comment, you'll see why he did so. I have nothing wrong with this and neither should anyone else. I wonder if people realize that GTM is one of the few reviewers that actually still -does- reviews.

O_o

lord_day, although I do like this feature, but what you just said is so wrong...
It seems like alot of things on NUMA revolve around well-known mapmakers, this should definately not influence anyone in any way...

This is incredible.

And if he wished to review a DDA you should respect his reviews.

Especially your recent ones (Yes, that's 4 new words, along with these within brackets, or parenthesis, whatever floats your boat)
For everyone else, I'd like to see you make a map as good with a concept as difficult to maintain as nreality needs... If you're going to get upset about a dda getting featured, look at many other features, I still don't see any good reason why this should not be featured, all I see is a bunch of complaints, and other maps like incluyes crazy dda, but when have there ever been features without atleast someone disagreeing?

with the dda he recomended

not about u ska, ur alright

you do realise OA that that comment was tongue-in-cheek?
If you read further below I said it was a bold move from GHM and we were laughing about it on IRC.

Wait, are you saying I don't deserve to be a reviewer? If so, I'm a bit disheartened. If not, then I don't understand. Please enlighten me.
Thanks :)

but i agree fully with what origami_alligator sayed

Congrats!! well deserved, although alot of your maps are feature-worthy... I faved this already, but no comment :/ weird, great work!

"I just think there's something better that could have been today's feature, like maybe a DDA that uses a single enemy really well ." ~seven_two
Or maybe featuring a DDA that incorporates innovation, such as following a rocket only pixels away from death for 50 frames. [nmaps.net]

"This is an abysmal feature. If I were atob I would probably go as far as revoking your Reviewer Status." ~ska
All the more reason you don't handle the reviewer status. It takes more than a single feature to remove one's reviewer status. Remember Stacey?
/me grins.

this doesnt have to do with just this feature, im talking all around

and ska, it's just a reference, its nice having someone try to stick up for something other than an action map, even if it's not the best, but it's not only him and i know others who are beter

Since I'm a dda maker.(Sort of)
Also, I have nothing against this dda being featured though I've seen better ddas.

You could do better. Much better. I mean, come on, this basically sucked.

Well my bad, And thank you. ^^ *tries not to feel stupid*

Thats kinda taking things out of context bud.

But whatever. You're alright, kid :)

I'm confused. Are you comparing GHM to like... Martin Luther King?

I have no problem defending my views. Its only a bonus that its helping you out. X3

YES! SOMETHING TO TAKE THE FOCUS OFF ME!

Hating a certain kind of map. But people come to look at the featured section to see a good map to play. Not look at, not watch, PLAY. Simple as that.

ddas and n-arts take time and effort to complete.
why do ppl even hate them, do even have a reason.
if your reason is "O, there up on the hot page to long", well there a reason for that.
there apealing cause ppl put the time and effort to produce it, guess what, they aren't easy
if theres one on the hot page, the easy thing to do would be going down and looking at other maps but no, u have to stay there and whine, whine, whine.
u could use this annaligy (action maps are the whites and n-arts,ddas, and races are the blacks, mexicans and asians. of course the white is the majority and the minority's lacking so it turns into something similar to the civil rights movements of the 1960's. the minority wants there rights for freedom, right to a fair rating for a map, but the white suppremacy keeps fighting back and hating when really, they have no perpose for hating. blacks keep fighting peacefully but u just throw us down as trash. we need ppl like GTM to act like the MLK of civil rights or soon, it'll turn into the things the black panthers and black power party's did to the country, now we don't want that)

do u really hate a minority map, or do u just hate that it gets ratings it disserves

I think its good that there was no violence too. And yes everyone have 1 cookie. JUST ONE!!! Anymore and you will feel the wrath of a cookie Deity. ^_^ enjoy.

I just think there's something better that could have been today's feature, like maybe a DDA that uses a single enemy really well [nmaps.net].

I'm also glad this was resolved without violence.

I still want my cookies though ;)

Cookies.

Ahem :P

"Unlike a Palemoon-esque abstract map this is a map which can only be properly 'played' one way and exactly one way. This is not the definition for any video game I know. Someone should just do a screen capture of this DDA and upload it onto RedTube."

I do agree with that. I don't think dda should be featured because there is nothing to play.

I like pretzels

the irony of Palemoon posting.

Yeah.. PS3's are a bit overrated.

with more submissions than one a day? that way, cool tilesets and DDA's can get into the spotlight without pushing out everything else.

"I'm really glad to see you aren't just changing it cause some people are upset about it. That does take guts."

Ok, this is interesting and completely correct in a normal sense. However! Unlike a Palemoon-esque abstract map this is a map which can only be properly 'played' one way and exactly one way. This is not the definition for any video game I know. Someone should just do a screen capture of this DDA and upload it onto RedTube.

But seriously.

GHM, I am not angry at you, because you have handled the aftermath of this situation diligently. You weren't aggressive or irrational. I also understand you are apologetic. Props to you for that.

*Conflict Terminated*

The speedrun path is quite fun and challenging. I suck too, though. :(

This was the wrong way to solve your problem about ddas. I mean the can be entertaining but out of all the map on here, I think other people are more deserving of the daily feature. Imo of course.

nahh you're right - I also found the gameplay quite challenging and of incredibly high replay value.. Really had to practice to beat this map. Then my 7 year old cousin comes and beats it first shot. Man! He really showed me up. He might just be the next xaelar or Mr Lim... what do you reckon GHM?

While i'm not a fan of ddas I really do admire you GTM for going with your gut on this, bad choice or not, I'm really glad to see you aren't just changing it cause some people are upset about it. That does take guts.

I say we move on from this. If anyone else thinks a new feature should be put up instead, do it. I don't thionk we shoudl dwell on this if isn't necessary.
