Contest: Failure D-Mod - Status
The Failure D-Mod Contest deadline is quickly approaching (Monday!), and I was wondering how everyone was doing.
How many people will be entering their D-Mods? So far, I've received two entries.
Would anyone be interested in extending the deadline a week?
Edit (9/16 - 1:00 PM EDT): Due to general consensus, the deadline for the Failure D-Mod Contest has been extended one week, to September 25th.

I'll enter My D-Mod is like 95% done. I know I'll be done in time but extend it one week would be great, so I have the time to search it trough for bugs.
Nope, I won't be entering.
Not unless I can stick something together in the next 3 days, which really isn't likely.

I'd say extend the deadline, to give VonZeppelin time to finish and Marpro and sqwatermelon some fine-tuning opportunity.
I'm done. I think you already recieved the story dir from my beta-tester . Right now I'm sending the DMOD to you. Still, if someone else want to extend the deadline, it's ok to me, but in this case, I'll probably send you a new version, after I test it some more.
I won't be able to finish even with an extension. I've barely touched my DMOD. Sorry guys, but I'm withdrawing from the contest Though I'll gladly partner with someone who's already finished and take the prize
Well I have gotten something around 98% of it done and with the not sleeping I can probably finish in time... ...much to my surprise that is...
...however I still have yet to get any betas out due to some rather bizarre occurences... (Hotmail says there is a virus in the .dmod file when there is almost deffinently not one)
...and more time would allow for me to make one or two of the bosses even more sophisticated. (well maybe one of them is not at all right now.XD) develop more spells, improve the graphics, experiment with more interesting ideas, arrange my coding so people can use some of the better stuff with external procedures in there own .dmods make more risque dialog Blah blah blah....
But I likely would be doing that anyway in a later release.
What time on the 18th is it due exactly?XD

Pansies...take your deadlines like real men. *averts the fact that he did not even attempt*
Bleh... should have came online before I stayed up till 4:00am finishing up stuff... Oh well... hopefully I can fine tune some things now.
Then, consider my DMOD as a present for your birthday
I've started toying with my d-mod again, so I may yet release something. It'll be desperately short if I do, so don't expect anything particularly good.
In doesn't really have any actual gameplay yet, but I've done some mapping... and an intro...

Did you recive my DMOD?
Yep... for some reason I forgot, though. I've modified the news entry.
I'm starting to think my d-mod will be finished in time. But I doubt it will be competing for the prizes, as it has no combat (apart from a couple of enemies in the intro section), and will only take 10 minutes to complete.
Saying that, I do quite like it.

He's only saying that to make us not work anymore on our DMODs, to think he won't do anything valuble. In one week, we'll proably see a new quest coming(or maybe an epic, why not?).
Me, sabre, cypry, carrie, vonzepplin, weasley and sqwatermelon... This is going to be a huge contest (if all who say they will join actually join... I hope they do, yeah and also, sorry if someone who is going to join is not on this list I may have forgot someone )
Is this the largest contest ever?

7 entries? I bet it is. alt.hero had 3, evil hero had 5... Weird D-Mod had 3... The vampire one got cancelled. Did we have any more contests?
There was the Naked D-mod contest...crap that was just another one of my fantasies...never mind.
That's if I finish mine. I should do, as it's very short, but I only really started it a couple of days ago (I scrapped my old idea).
It's good that we should have qiute a few entries. There's been a severe lack of d-mods recently.

Just to let you know, if I do happen to by some miracle win, I will let my runner-up have the prize instead, because I am not really trying to win one...
So when do these D-mods show up?
It would be interesting to see how people take my D-mod... ...Well I guess they would all download it but that is beside the point....

I can submit it 12:00 Pacific, but not Eastern... sorry, but I have to go to school tomorrow, and I have my own reasons for not submitting it tonight...
Um... VonZeppelin, you do know that the deadline was about six-and-a-half hours ago, right?
We never did make it very clear when we extended it to September 25.. it could've been extended to just 45 minutes prior to brunch for all they knew.
I almost forgot to send mine in. Not sure if I hit the deadline or not, but hopefully it will still be entered in the contest. :/
I'm just going to take a *wild* guess, and say that if any entries are withing 20 or so hours of the deadline, they won't get rejected from the contest.
Just a outa the smarting shiney blue guess.

Like sqwatermelon says... When can one see the DMods?!
Yeah, I'd really like to see what the competition created
I want to know which other D-Mods for the contest are too!
When will you tell us?
When will you tell us?
Yeah... I'm not a very strict person when it comes to deadlines. But usually D-Mods come in within a few hours of the deadline. I also understand there may have been some confusion as to the actual time the D-Mods were due, so I'll accept VonZeppelin's D-Mod if it arrives tonight.
am i the only one who cares that WESLEY MADE ANOTHER DMOD?!?!@? this is monumental!
It looks like the contest D-Mods will be available to download tomorrow. I'm waiting to here back from joshriot to make sure that he has permission to distribute a song included in his D-Mod.
Redink: Yeah... ...arrives tonight.
Oh poo juice I could deffinently have used another hour or so...
I started the submition process at 11:30 EST after working on it two days straight with literally no sleep between them...XD
I actually started and added the Power Point meter thingie within the last hour or two I think...XD

oh come on so its my fault that the dmods arent up?? haha. anyway yes i have permission i asked them personally i know this band cause ive played with them probably 15 times over the past 3 years and they said it was cool just give them credit for the song. anyway sorry for the delay i was sleeping.
oh sorry i forgot to mention that this dmod REQUIRES 1.08 because of the new menu screen could you put that in the description? i dont want someone with an older version to not understand whats going on because they dont have version 1.08 and of course mention it needs aural to use the mp3s
Sorry weren't we told we weren't allowed to release DMODs WITH mp3s and they had to be released separately? Or is that just what [i] was told
So you're entering the contest too?
i think the plan is that there will be a seperate link on the dmod download page for the mp3s
