Minimi · Sat 17/01/2004 18:16:13

I casted my votes too, but one question... why is Flashbax in the P3n1s awards??? Flashbax was a good game! :

$:-\$

m0ds · Sat 17/01/2004 18:21:48

Boooo. It's hard to vote when you've played hardly any of them.. :p

Vel · Sat 17/01/2004 18:28:59

Probably because many people voted for it. And come to think of it it DID include a p3n1sh.

The Knight · Sat 17/01/2004 19:34:58

My votes are cast.

Gregjazz · Sun 18/01/2004 01:04:45

Can I vote for my own game?

DGMacphee · Sun 18/01/2004 06:17:35

You can most certainly vote for your own game.

SHIT!!! You mean p3nish isn't a GOOD award?!

Oops.

Vel · Mon 19/01/2004 12:39:24

I think you shouldnt have named the category so...

DGMacphee · Mon 19/01/2004 15:22:21

Did anyone actually read the rules?

Like the part where it says:

18. The P3N1S Award (Booby Prize)

Vel · Mon 19/01/2004 15:55:39

I have. However, most people who vote do not.

DGMacphee · Mon 19/01/2004 16:12:28

Well, they should!

j/k

Goldmund · Mon 19/01/2004 19:55:12

Flashbax getting nominated for (quote) "The P3N1S Award - Awarded to the most uninspiring game/demo created with AGS. All nominations are welcome. Three (3) nominations will be selected, from which the AGS community will vote upon their LEAST favourite game".

This is idiotic.

Have any of you who nominated it thought about the amount of work this game required to make?

Edit: by the way, I don't really think this category should exist at all. I vote we should scrap it.

MrColossal · Mon 19/01/2004 19:58:48

i think people are confusing the game with the creator

Vel · Mon 19/01/2004 19:59:48

Sorry Goldmund, A game like GayLula3D probably also required a lot of effort. I really disliked the "scene". Hence my nomination. If this category has been described as "worst game", I wouldn't have voted Flashbax, but to me is the least inspiring game I've played. IMO.
Edit: I would have voted for it even if the creator was CJ himself.

Goldmund · Mon 19/01/2004 20:02:25

Even when this is the case, Erik, I don't really see sense in giving out the title of "the most uninspiring game".
This is where fun ends and resentment begins.
We should award the people who tried their hardest, not scold those who did "worst".

It's not like we are working for money and distributing shit only to get some bucks from kids. All people here are heroes in this sense.
(after the speech, goldmund quickly goes into his anti-pathos shower)

Esseb · Mon 19/01/2004 20:08:11

Was that the definition of that category last year? I remember nominating games that were intentionally "crap" last year at least.

AGS AWARDS VOTING IS OVER!
