[2:11:02 PM] SmashBro: what makes this all funnier
[2:11:06 PM] SmashBro: is the fact that it's Gumballtoid
[2:11:13 PM] Gumballtoid: oh
[2:11:15 PM] Korby: smash you're just gonna swap one of us right
[2:11:23 PM] SmashBro: but how would that solve anything
[2:11:31 PM] Korby: because then gumballtoid wouldn't be paired with gumballtoid
[2:11:42 PM] Gumballtoid: You make that sound like a bad thing
[2:11:49 PM] SmashBro: well either someone volunteers or I'm resetting everything
[2:11:53 PM] Dr. Freeman: I will
[2:11:57 PM] SmashBro: I refuse to even partially rig the RNG
[2:12:05 PM] Korby: you could literally just randomize one name again but ok
[2:12:10 PM] Ukiyama: RNGesus was a troll today
[2:12:12 PM] Jc494: uh
[2:12:15 PM] Dr. Freeman: no seriously i'd volunteer to work with gumball
[2:12:47 PM] Korby: but freeman which of your groups will you give up for a bumballtoid
[2:12:52 PM] Korby: that was supposed to be a g
[2:12:57 PM] Dr. Freeman: does smash want to work with gumball
[2:13:23 PM] SmashBro: oh yeah I can't make a clean swap
[2:13:26 PM] SmashBro: since there's two groups per player
[2:13:27 PM] SmashBro: fof
[2:13:29 PM] Dr. Freeman: smash
[2:13:31 PM] Dr. Freeman: we can switch
[2:13:33 PM] Dr. Freeman: if you're willing
[2:13:35 PM] Dr. Freeman: fix the world
[2:13:36 PM] Dr. Freeman: it's so easy
[2:13:37 PM] Dr. Freeman: pls
[2:13:47 PM] Gumballtoid: I'd like to reiterate the fact that this is all Smash's fault
[2:14:00 PM] Dr. Freeman: you need both members to be willing

[2:14:05 PM] Korby:
freeman + smash
gumball + gumball
becomes
freeman + gumball
smash + gumball

[2:14:08 PM] Korby: gosh smash
[2:14:10 PM] SmashBro: I'd totally work with Gumball
[2:14:10 PM] SmashBro: I like his piece
[2:14:10 PM] SmashBro: but then the host will be changing their own pair
[2:14:17 PM] Dr. Freeman: smash
[2:14:18 PM] Dr. Freeman: I told you to
[2:14:20 PM] Dr. Freeman: it's fine
[2:15:19 PM] Korby: it's too late now

I'll be posting more information about this second phase in a moment, so buckle your pants!

[Knux]

Given that I'm left with ten participants (5 potential submissions) for the dual mapping event because of one pair dropping out, and that this event is far more fun, I can cancel that one if everyone agrees. It's just that I find this event so much more fun and dynamic, and I'd hate to overload people with work.

Not to mention only Gummy and Balrog have submitted their map so far.

Absolutely not.

I have been forced out of this one due to stupidity and bias (on both sides, admittedly). Balrog and I have worked hard on our entry and we do not want it to go to waste. Our work should not have to be trashed because others failed to meet the deadline, and probably because we aren't "important big name mappers".

[Knux]

Well Gummy, it's actually about not having sufficient entrants. However, it should only be fair that the ones who worked on their maps and submitted them still receive medals, in the least.

[Ivory]

Absolutely not.

No, while Smash jumped to conclusions, which is unfair. You are just as guilty with you lack of communication. You made two attempts, yes, but you also didn't mention your issues with producing an acceptable map piece until after Smash had to call you out on what he perceived to be trolling.

This entire situation could of been avoided had you communicated with the host to begin with. So please don't go around using this "we're not big name mappers" card.

Except he only notified me 3 days before the deadline that my entry was not acceptable. (And no, I didn't "know exactly what I was doing") . I then contacted him regarding if the 2nd attempt was acceptable with no response.

But it doesn't matter anyway. The groups have been decided already.

And I don't think losing out on one day of work (assuming the deadline for the other event isn't moved again) is going to impact too much.

here it is

[Dr. Freeman]

Since Gumball and I are pretty much wrapping up our map (just some minor changes that need to be made here and there) I'm just gonna go post some screenshots.

(click to show/hide)

Welcome to the world of this map! Where a mining expedition unexpectedly dug some ancient ruins. What wonders will we find inside?



Apparently, they also hit a leak and now there's a lot of lava.
Oops.



Like how the hell does this much lava even exist in one place?



Luckily some moron decided to carve a sword into the wall. He was promptly fired from the mining squad for being a weirdo.



Ahh yes! The Ancient Thunder Claw Pegs! Truly a wonder to see in person!



A-are you guys alright up there?
Do you need some help?
No? Okay then...



SHIT! Who invited Gary?!
NO ONE LIKES GARY!



But what wonders will you find in The Lost City?!
I dunno, probably the same as everyone else.

[Magnet Dood]

As I said in the Absence thread, I'm dropping out of the jam. Read about it in there. Sorry to my two partners, there's not much that I can do about the situation.

[Hallan Parva]

[5:14:13 PM] SmashBro: so now that I understand what's going on a bit better
[5:14:13 PM] SmashBro: I'll just remove Dood from the roster and close his pairs together
[5:14:45 PM] SmashBro: so here's what's going on losers
[5:15:02 PM] SmashBro: MAXINE AND STARDUST ARE NOW A PAIR

[2:28:41 PM] Gumball: In case you losers wondered where JAM18 came from


AS A REMINDER, I STILL NEED PROGRESS REPORTS FROM TEAMS WHO ARE NOT SYNCHED TO DROPBOX.

JAM09 - Fuck if I know what we're calling this

This is fun

[Hallan Parva]

Time for (hopefully) the last intermission update!
This message concerns all mappers.


So today's the 23rd. Second progress report. This means I'm going to ask about how much jamming you guys have been slamming, but unlike last time I'm going to be collecting files from everyone. This is so I have definitive proof of how much progress is being reported, per se. I'd much rather if you came to me first, instead of me having to hunt you guys down.

Today was also supposed to be the deadline, but due to a couple major changes (being the departure of Knux and Dood, as well as Stardust and Maxine forming a pair as a result) the deadline will be pushed back to August 1st. This is the very latest I'm going to shove the date back, so get your maps in gear and be ready to submit your work by next week Friday!

As always, thanks for playing! I hope to see everyone's hard work come to fruition pretty soon!
