| Just read. I had to put it into 1280x1024 resolution to do that which shouldn't have to happen. The writing was very good, but it sometimes looked like you put more thought into Alt Text than the real game itself. And the pics, god damn man! You shouldn't have to rely on 40+ pics to tell the tale, your writing could have done that easily. And the game wasn't the most exciting I've read. Overall I'll give it a 6 as is without pics, maybe 7 or even 8 if the pics are good. |

I enjoyed it though I could see why someone on a modem would be upset.
At the beginning, you put the build order in the pics, then repeat it in the text. This is redundant. If I had been writing it I would have put the details of build order in the pic and then put the strategic goals of each build in the text.
The writing was pretty good. |

you made me copy paste you insolent fuck
As much as I dislike you, the writing wasn't half bad. There were, however, a few grammatical errors (and one point where you called ^Nuitari^ "blue"). It seemed to me that you either became disinterested in the game around mid/endgame, because your writing began to lack the flair it had at the beginning. Try to make the screenshots just a tiny bit more interesting, too - even a simple colored border would do.
If I was a rater - 7. It doesn't deserve gold. (although the paper bag at the end was quite innovative - it seems you finally can fight your way out of one, albeit that picture was a nonexistant video game spaceship..asdf) |

I called Nuitari blue? Where? If it was in the alt-text it was on purpose...
Also, for some reason, I kind of got bored with it around part 3. Next time I'll have to report a shorter game. Maybe I'll go back and rewrite the end in a while. I already corected about 123412341412 mistakes (Thx fileread) |

Umm... I'm commenting as I go along, so let me just reinstate that EPOCH LIE!
He forgot to include a vulture raid as blue was expanding, and a subsequent nuke on that same expo. Also, the SCV blue mced was killed by a few vultures. I think he built his terran base using one of Bobbinz' SCVs.
The cloaked wraith fleet was NOT destroyed by bcs, rather it destroyed a ground of guardians, prompting another wave by Nuitari.
Also, I did NOT drop 2 nukes on blue's base, rather I sent 2 ghosts, moving one around to draw blue's storms away from the target. The surviving ghost didn't wait around for further orders, he got killed, I think, when an observer arrived.
And that's only the mistakes relating to me...
But nobody's perfect ;) |
| #24 Wr@th[118791] |

epoch, if you can't keep track of the action, don't report on it. there are no deadlines for when a report is due unless you're some kind of blackmail/gangrape scheme (the latter plz).
the beauty of a battlereport is so one can know what's going on at all times everywhere - be glad you have the replay function, use it
this just furthers my immense dislike of you |

I'll get to the point now:
-One line of text per image IS NOT enough -.-
-Borders=tnx just use a basic line tool or square.
-Less detail when the detail isn't too important.
So anywayy, this is maybe a 6.
No wait, 7 but that only because of the last pic.
:D |

| Wow, so many bad pictures it almost gave me a headache . . . after it successfully crashed my computer three times. Please, use borders.

I did not read it, too long for my tired brain (its 07:30).
Just looked over the pictures, didn't like them much, too many and to confusing + rather ugly. Add some borders, remove about 50% of them.
The little I did read looked pretty good (at least compared to my stiff, by-dictionary-english). |

| Hey! That was a pretty good game. It was actually my first tie in nohunters. (I know, im a newbie.) What you forgot to say was when I did my huge offensive against blue i had so many cracklings and goons/zealots I could not control the all. I think if I had microed better I would have won that battle. Not the game though because blue had so many bc, and also all of my expansions were being destroyed. Good BR. |

| cache-1.sbo.ma.webcache.rcn.net |
| Hmm.....gj for a first report. Are you sure that a 5 player FFA (i think it was 5), or maybe 6, is a good thing to report for your first br? you skimmed through a load of action, and thus it made the game seem pretty bad even though I'm sure it was good. Cover action better, cover build orders less. Have an animated GIF for that :D Neways it was pretty good. Pictures were confusing, too many collages and no borders = bad. Like some would think that in that pic w/ all those hatches, they were all next to each other in one base even though I'm sure they weren't. So pics need borders. Writing is fine, grammer is fine, things like saying "read" instead of "red" was annoying. Also the first zergling upgrade is metabolic boost ;) not adrenal glands. The "crackling" upgrade is adrenal glands......and not metabolic boost ;) anyways nj. 7. |

Sorry Marx, I'll go back and fix that. But I couldn't say you had a hard time controlling it, I was trying to make it seem like a real battle, not a game. That's why I didn't use any slang or anything...

The FFA was the best thing I could find. I didn't skim that often, did I? Can't get animated GIF, can't figure out how to do that with GIMP yet, and my dad has yet to let me borrow his Fireworks CD. Sorry about the alck of borders, couldn't find the 'Line' function in GIMP. And on the subject of all the hatches; there were 10 of them, lined up, side by side all in one base. I had some extra Drones & minerals so... And thx, I thought I might get the upgrades wrong. |

| And you obvioulsy don't appricate the genius and talent it took to craft that picture... Think it's just an inflated screenshot? Go back and look at again. An inflated screenshot would be jagged, blurred conglamerate of extra-large washed out pixels. No, you obviously don't appriceate the perfect blend of smooths and sharpen filters, all the special filtration it took to make a smooth Lavos unmarred by jaggies, and the amazing combination of recoloring filters, shaders and pixel filters that it took to make a brilliant, vivid, perfectly blended Lavos that ensnares the eyes. And if you didn't notice, it took quite a while to create that funky, textured border that was the finishing touch on the picture. |

Ummm.. I've worked with emulators before. They're real bitches to take screenshots with, esp. since the damn thing refuses to go beyound regular tv resolution. Its really difficult to do it right. Especially since I used MS Paint and Irfanview. 2nd., that texture in the background was always there. It happens whenever you go from place to place in time. . And don't mess with Kane. He can get very bitchy with video game characters and pics. See plotholes comments. I STILL CALL 7 and 9 YOU SPOONY BARD!

| #57 Kane[119069] |
