Fall 2005 WoZ

Fall 2005 WoZ
Yes, that's right. It's that time of year again where the community actually has something to do with ZZT, with the renouned and well-appreciated Weekend of Zeux. I've decided to host it, and I've got Madtom's permission to do so it's all alright. Alright, on with the info:
Time Range: 6:30 PM PST on Sept. 30th to 6:30 PM PST on Oct. 3rd.
Judges: Myself and perhaps two other people (Oof, Nuero and Viovis are barred from being judges because I'm far more interested in what they might produce for the contest than their judging ability).
Judging Criteria: It'll be similar to how the other entries of previous WoZs were scored; 10-point scale ranging from 0 to 10 based on graphics, plot, theme adherence, gameplay, originality, and so forth.
Topics: To be revealed at the start of the WoZ. There will be two topics to choose from; you can implement both into your submission if you want but I don't recommend it. I will allow a lot of flexibility for how you utilize and implement the topic(s) in your submission, but don't take any huge liberties.
Submission: You must send it to me via e-mail at ande9108@uidaho.edu by 6:30 PM PST on Oct. 3rd (although I will still accept submissions if they are just like, 5 minutes late). It can be as large or as small in size as you want it, but practicality is advised. I would like for the submissions to simply be in ZZT format, but if you really want to submit a SZZT entry then you're allowed to do so.
That's all that I can think of for now. Anyways, let's hope that this WoZ will be a good one!

I can never tell what my work schedule is going to be, so I can never enter these things with anything better than reluctance. Then again, I took a kind of "put my name in and I might do something, maybe, I guess" attitude to the last WoZ and wound up its champion. So, uh, put my name in and I might do something, maybe, I guess.

It seems unlikely that this deeply unsatisfactory situation will be resolved by a new attempt to answer the old question; instead, as has been suggested by some of the most thoughtful students, we should expect to find that some part of the conceptual landscape in which this problematic entity resides must be reconstructed before it will come into focus.

Ok, I will join, I'm not sure if will be able to make a really good entry as it spills over into monday for me and that's a school day! And school is more important than ZZT.

For fuck's sake. I have started entering descent, funny content and i get flammed / insulted in every thread i post no matter what content or funniness i post in whatever thread and its beginning to piss me the fuck off. Now listen here i wouldn't mind if you fuck holes constantly flamed me as long as i was being gay or being hostile, but there is no fucking reason to flame me when i am entering decent content, its just a fucking bandwagon. Whats hilarious is that you faggots think you are actually getting on my nerves / upsetting my by insaulting me; I'll tell you, that in school every fucking day i was called "asian biaotch" by blacks (I went to school in a black community in cali), I was teased by everyone of all races but mainly blacks, every day, for playing magic the gathering/ warhammer etc. So If i can handle being bullied by large blacks (who im actually cool with now, i matured into a good looking guy who gets girls, and has a girlfriend who lets him fuck whenever i want), then you think i care what some pasty whites on the internet think of me. Heres a clue if you cant get it into thine thick skull: THE ANSWER CONTAINS THE LETTERS O and N AND NOT IN THAT ORDER, REARANGE THEM TO GET THE ANSWER. Now let me ask you this. What if Ando had my entire posting career? she would still be revered and popular, because she is a girl. this shows how desperate z2 is, and its ironic that you call digitalMZX nerds/virgins ETC when you circlejerk around girls like Quantum P and Ando, who in my opinion is a vappid, stupid cunt who enters no content whatsoever. IVe spoken with Dr Dos over ICQ/ Email and he actually says that i am a cool guy, what do you nerds think of that, that YOUR HERO dr dos likes me? Whats sad is that now you know dr dos likes me, my popularity will probably go up just for that. You think I give a fuck? I dont care how popular I am in this forum, I am an independantguy, I play by my own rules and i dont give a flying fuck what society thinks of me. I have my own style of dress and shit, and really dont care who likes me and who doesnt. dont like me? thats your loss not mine.
Now, if i were ever to meet one of you people who flames me in real life, let's just say your attitude might change a little. Ive studied tae kwon do for 4 years, and studied kung fu as a young child. I am going to take up judo soon, and also casually jeet kune do. I lift weights every day, and have been in a fight before, and won. That's the thing, that behind the internet you can say whatever you like to me, but you know what? Im secure in the fact that i am popular in my circle of friends in real life, and dont need to be accepted in some faggot forum to boost my self esteem, i am also confident that i could kick most of your asses in real life, so what do i care? Another thing. You ZZTERS think that you invented "offbeat" humnor like saying random shit like "GONG SHOW MUMPS", but its been done before and way fucking better. Have you ever seen wobbl and bob? the badger badger mushroom animation? in 30 seconds/2 minutes those 2 flash animations capured a random abstract humor way better than z2 has for years. Even if it were true that z2 was funny, you people have no fucking justification in flamming digitalMZX etc for being losers when if you look on most profiles here you will see like-10 000 PPOSTS (-30 POSTS A DAY) posting 30 for hours a fucknig day on an internet forum i mean how pathetic can you get, and you are flaming me?
Heres a little anegdote for you. When I first read this forums, i thought it was hilarious and brilliant. when I saw faggots get mocked for making shit posts i laughed and realised i wanted to be a part of this community. Whats more? I found my self attracted to the females who frequent this forum, which is rare since most females on internet forums are ugly. i thought to myself, if i could take any online community and put it IRL for people to hang out, i would choose z2F. I imagined a high school of z2 where older posters were teachers. hot girls everywhere, funny people making jokes it would have been the best fucking school in the world i thought. But gradually, with each needless flame and racist shit i saw, i realised how gay you truely are.I thought to myself, maybe i can remedy the gayness by making funny posts, while still not being rude to newbs. not flaming unless i was flamed first. I thought maybe a revolution in posting would occur and that i would be praised. but i have now gone on to be one of the most unpoipular posters in this entire forum?
HOW CAN I PUT THIS??

You are high school shitlickers who really just dont understand how life works.You know what? you should be flatterd i even bothered typing one line to you fags so let me just end it siomply in plain english so you FAGGOTS can understand what the fuck im sayng.
YOU ARE THE BIGGEST FUCKING GROUP OF UTTER. FUCKING. IDIOTIC. SHIT EATING. CIRCLEJERK. FAGGOTS. EVER. TO. WALK. THE. EARTH. NOTHING YOU SAY TO ME CAN HURT ME AT ALL!

Im looking for a bento box, it cant be pinku (thats japanese for pink) or any girl color. It has to be of 2 or more kotoba (thats japanese for 2 compartments) and has be be chibi (small) sized. And has to be really kawaii (cute). Also It has to be about 10-20 bux. And you have to post pics of it first (i want to make shure it's kawaii [cute]). And it would be nice if it came with matching chopstick holder (WITH chopsticks). OH! and it CANNOT have any cartoon pictures, or be made out of plastic. It has to be made of ceramic, or something like that. Also it would be nice if it was made in japan. and not in china or corea (korea) or whatever. I have found a bento box similar to the one im describing in e-bay, but it was 1 kotoba, and i dont want my gohan (rice) to touch my other things (it can get wet and i would not like that, plus 2 compartments looks more kawaii)

It seems unlikely that this deeply unsatisfactory situation will be resolved by a new attempt to answer the old question; instead, as has been suggested by some of the most thoughtful students, we should expect to find that some part of the conceptual landscape in which this problematic entity resides must be reconstructed before it will come into focus.
