AGS AWARDS 2009 [read the log of the ceremony!]

[Dualnames]

Harg, thanks for the pm, very meaningful. Also on-topic, I do recall I called Calin with many others a girl, which is even worse than a dick. Calin got 4 awards though, so perhaps that helps his sorrow. But it's just him, he says he looks like a girl in his avatar, so he can take a joke. I couldn't expect nothing more from a guy that can't take a bad rating. You actually haven't heard the boos on Skype when your name was typed, you should find my friends list and pm them too.

Hell, I even mocked at Mods (MODS!!!), when I was announcing the award, lol I even said Nelly Cootalot by Ben Jordan or something like that, and everyone found it really stupid and perhaps a little funny, and they understood that FFS, it was the AGS Awards ceremony!! Look at the nonsensical stuff Mods is typing!

Also on the winners were the games...WTF? We put our heart and soul in this ceremony!! We mocked and smeared as much as we could!!

[Igor Hardy]

On the subject of the penis award, grow up. I got called a girl several hundred times and I was alright..

Personally, I would prefer to be a girl to getting a penis award.

[Calin Leafshade]

especially if youre a hot girl like me. *growl*

What? eww.. Cooties

Guys, you can joke to each other as much you want. I can handle every joke if there wasn't that not pleasant arguing with all of you months ago. Mentioning my game and that p...s award was totally inappropriate. And who the hell nominated CQ3 for the awards? Or maybe the nomination of the game was joke - on purpose?

[Snarky]

It's the Internet. Inappropriate things will be said. Get over it.

CQ3 was nominated by people who enjoyed it, I'm sure, or at least appreciated those aspects it was nominated for. There aren't that many games with voice acting or that do something special with the documentation, so it probably wouldn't take very many votes to get on the ticket. Just be happy for the nominations and stop being such a buzzkill.

AGS AWARDS! WOOOO!

Cosmos Quest 3 don't have voice acting and don't have documentation.

[Dualnames]

I think it's the epitome of stupidity to nominate a game, so you can see or expect that people will mock it for being there. It's just stupid. PLAIN STUPID.

[Snarky]

I didn't play your game (I figured deleting it from the db also withdrew it from the competition), but you just said:

CQ3 has only one voice act and also the game documentation is not that rich.

That sounds like it did have one voice and some documentation.

I think it's the epitome of stupidity to nominate a game

No, YOU'RE the epitome of stupid. Nya nya nanana!

[Iliya]

I think it's the epitome of stupidity to nominate a game, so you can see or expect that people will mock it for being there. It's just stupid. PLAIN STUPID.

Ok Dualnames, then tell me why it was nominated for the best voice acting and best documentation, when there no voice acting and no documentation?

[bicilotti]

Cosmos Quest 3 doesn't have voice acting and doesn't have documentation.

CQIII has a narrator voice, if I recall correctly?

Harg, please, try to be positive: if people nominated it, they for sure thought it deserved that award!

[Iliya]

CQ3 has only one voice act and also the game documentation is not that rich.

That sounds like it did have one voice and some documentation.

I have hundreds dialogs, and only 1 sentence with voice. Documentation... only 1 window help that tells the player how to save, how restore and e.t.c. CQ3 nomination was strange for me...

I find it insultive and unfair that I didn't get the life time achievement award, when every other Tom, Dick and Harry on this forum has got one.

What the hell are you talking about? I didn't get shit!

[Calin Leafshade]

I find it insultive and unfair that I didn't get the life time achievement award, when every other Tom, Dick and Harry on this forum has got one.

Also... insultive? Insultive is not a word

[Dualnames]

Oh. I think you should be most mad that some dicks voted for your game that way then, than just one remark I made on the IRC ceremony. But it's a grave you've opened there son.

[Leon]

@Harg:

I was always told: no matter how they talk about it, as long as they talk about it. Your game still gets lots of attention so see the positive side! It's a pity a great event like this has to end in a discussion like this.

[veryweirdguy]

I think the most important thing to take away from this ceremony is that some people got trophies and some people did not.

Sucks to be you Andail.

I'm sorry for that Leon. Yes, it's pity. Just check my first posts on the subject and see that I was positive. I just put a sentence about that p...s award and my game. Then all started to post without seeing my positives about the ceremony.

[Leon]

Then maybe you should have read it, left it and that's it. First time reading I didn't even think any of it because a lot of nonsense was uttered by a lot. But because the discussion came up I read it again and still couldn't find any 'hatred' or misconduct in it.

Maybe you should just push the 'read and ignore' button a bit more, instead of taking offense to everything. I know it's not nice of people to make fun of one another but hey... cheer up. It's not the end of the world. So why not just forgive & forget ignore and publish CQ4!

[Andail]

Apparently Cosmos Quest has gone from having some voices and a not-so-rich documentation, to no voices at all and no documentation at all.
Is it a game or a black hole, I wonder.
