Sorry, my mistake, wonkyth and stee should get another trophy. Real sorry.

I'll grant them one as soon as I'm able.

EDIT:

Here you go!


Stee and wonkyth get the straw trophy, and NsMn gets the wooden one.

FSi thanks a bunch.

Well, realistically, males are driven by their alpha male syndrome, showing itself in many ways. Any male who doesn't think with his jimmy probably makes him an interesting character. Or too feminine =D.

Take eg. Daniel Leary (David Drake, RCN series). He screws women a lot, but his duty comes above all.

And the hardest thing to do...

Pick a winner.

6 trophies and 7 entries.

So...
7th place:
None, f* the rules, everybody is getting a trophy =D this time!

6th place:
wonkyth and Stee. I don't want to meet either of you in a dark alley. Or a light alley. Or meet you at all. =P

5th place:
NsMn pretty and nice, altough the lack of details force me to give the...

4th place:
...to Mr Matti. Fitting a dwarf in thoose lines is a work of art. Congratulations!

3rd place:
Suprisingly, Scarab117 for the sheer amount of pixel pushing he did making the dihtering by hand. That kind of determination deserves a reward.

2nd place:
AngelicCharon. You slipped me a fast one there and it caught me off guard, but it also made me laugh at myself for putting my mouth ahead of my brain. I will NEVER barter with you again.

1st place:
Chicky! The pure originality deserves the gold, not the mention how you caught the wind in just a few lines. It's just such an easy going picture that I didn't have a choice other than handing you the gold and the next competition.

I hope I didn't dissapoint anyone. It was a tough call to give thoose places.

Cheers!

Can I ask if this jumble is organised in any particular way?
It seems to me that making a game using that much paperwork is probably very hard.

Mighty optimistic there, but the competition is not over yet. =D

But you get extra points for the rhyme, and who knows, maybe I'll give you all trophies...

Lol =D it kinda rhymes! Bent the rhyme section. I'll mark that as extra points.

Sure, I got your promised trophy (check the last CB competition) packed up home, so just give me a few hours to get back from work.

P.s. It's kinda dwarfish =D

I hope the rules are not too hard. Maybe I'll change them a bit if someone voices a concern.

EDIT:

Trophies are done!

Golden trophy:


Silver trophy:


Bronze trophy:


Brick trophy:


Wooden trophy:


And a special for Mr Matti (yeah, Jim, bribe someone else to make an entry, too   ) :


And if it isn't small enough, I can draw it even smaller. And even smaller again!  

I hope this competition doesn't end up like the last one.  

Oh, yes, and when terrorists destroy a building/plain floods etc., the player is told that it happened, but not where exactly. That imo brings the game down, forcing the player to search for it, thus wasting time that he should be playing the game.

Colour coding the tiles would make strategic thinking a bit more easy.

Ah yes, I had 5 SAM sites, but a missle destroyed one. How's that possible if a SAM gives 20% destroy missle probability?

Overall, the game has good potential, and I'm looking to play the finished version.

[flip and flop]

I was going to do a game,
I was going to do it right,
After a week I lost interest,
Because I came by a ......



Draw the rhyme, and as it's hip hop, you can flip and flop.

Bend the rules, as it suit you!

Thropies should be probably available.

Gee, I won! (excuse the pun)

Mr Matti, you've been a really bad boy! 
I expect that the first entry will be yours.

Give me a minute to set up a new competition and I'll grant you a special trophy when it's over.

When I get that feeling, I either go sleep on it, or go do something completly different to charge up my 'batteries'.

Offcourse, if that "completly different" thing is some mind numbing and tedious work, I kinda get the feeling that making a game is really a creative job as opposed to the tedious job I'm working at the time.

Or you can go drinking 'till dawn =D

Btw, don't care what other people say. How can they appriciate the amount of love and sweat you poured into this itsy-bitsy =D game you're making?

Cheer up!

Checked it out.

Dead players still auction, and the game is pretty slow to win. Maybe if we could attack more tiles in the same turn, it would speed up the game a bit.

Ah, and the lottery is killing me =D

Yeah, it looks fine, but I would curve the sticky note a bit and maybe give it a folded corner.

The paper looks ram-rod straight now.

Edit:
Something like this maybe:

Don't let it all fall down, Jim!!!



2x:

From my expirience, your arguments don't 'hold water'.
You can link to a thousand people opinions and defend them untill you run out of breath, and it will not affect the truth.

I will not waste my time in this thread arguing about it any more.

I have nothing more to say to you Kris.

Kris, you are being insulting on purpose.

If you don't believe in God, It's your choice. But courtesy is not a matter of religion.

Kris, starting from the link at the page you offered, I saw that the author claims that prayer healing is coincedence.
I saw it work a number of times. How large that number should be to prove that it's not coindence?

Lionmonkey:
If I pray what Jesus said to pray, or say: "Jesus, save us.", and get help, what should I think? It was a placebo? The unicorn did it? On two occasions help came as the words left my mouth exactly. -...forgive us for our sins... / -Jesus save us. On other occasions it came while I was sleeping.

Real names are a tricky bussiness. I don't know why the church 'demands' we use them. I don't use my real name. I don't allow myself to be photographed, if I can help it, either.

I don't know exactly why my rules say that I need compensation. I do have an opinion. But It'll stay with me on this matter.

Vince:
How can he be a charlatan, if his prayer healing works? It worked on me several times.

If you don't understand anything, ask more specific questions, please.

Nathan:
Why should I read the bible often?

Jim, forgive me, I don't wish to ask you to repeat yourself, I've been paying some attention to this thread, but not reading each word, so I may have missed it.  Exactly who was it who gave you the licence?  All that I can remember reading was that it was a higher ranking member of your church.  Could you be more specific?

-What is his position within the church?

-What denomination is this church?

-What country do you live in?

I'm only asking to satisfy my curiosity, not to attempt to discredit you.  Also, just so that no one misinterprets your beliefs or your practice of prayer healing, could you answer these questions?

-Do you recommend faith healing to your family and friends?

-How do you find people to heal via prayer?  Do they seek you out?  Do you advertise?

-Do you do this often, or just whenever an acquaintance seeks your help?

-Do you recommend people seek medical help along with the prayer healing, or is the faith sufficient?

-If someone has true faith, can their prayers heal any malady?

-If your prayers fail to heal someone (do they ever??), do you return their money?

-

A man gave it to me after I asked him to do it. He has no position in church that I know of. He has a licence from the church. He has a wife and children. He has a proven ability of prayer healing (he prayed for me a number of times), and some other abilities. He is of catholic religion as far as I know.

I don't wan't to disclose my country name if it's not necessary.

Very few people know that I do this kind of work. Even less ask for me to pray for them. I don't devout much of my time thinking about it either. I like to be dumb and happy. I think more about soccer than it =D

I don't go advertising about this much. (But, Jim, what about this thread? =D)

I don't have anything against doctors. Medicine heals, too.

I don't pray-heal others much, as I gained the licence this winter. I did pray-heal myself before winter, though.

Any malady? Fever, the flu, hip, nerve and heart problems thus far that I've prayed for or witnessed.

No prayer of mine was left unreplied after I gained faith. On a side note, I don't pray anything besides "Our father...". Hmm...on one ocasion I asked for Jesus's help, for myself, directly and was helped.

Sometimes I help health problems without prayer, using only my knowledge and skill.

About the boat, I agree.

I told allready who gave me my rules. I'd give freely if I could. I will not brake the rules I was given. But on a side note, the amount is not defined, and I did it for about ~0.7 euros the other day. You cannot say that is very much.

When Jesus, or the man who gave me the approval/licence, says to me that I can work for free, I'll do it. Btw, the healing Jesus and his disciples performed, if I remember correctly, was in form of commanding the sickness to go away (I don't read the bible very much).

I can not do that at present.
I pray "Our father, who art in heaven...", I don't command diseases and/or sins to go away.
