Submission & General Commentary Thread

[Swaeft]

In addition, Swaeft will become my backup showrunner, to make sure the competitions run when I'm away.

Hey, who agreed to that? What are these guards doing to me?

Only kidding, I'll try my best not to mess things up

Now guys, in my opinion, we are getting close to discover the actual reason why the Romans always preferred to elect two Consuls instead of one.

Do I hear dissent? Guards!

Do I hear dissent? Guards!

No, you don't, of course. It's not dissent it was just my silly passion for Roman history, I've always wondered why the Romans were used to elect two Consuls (why not one? Or maybe three or four?), at first it may seem a strange custom, but if you think about it, you understand that when a consul is on mission far from the Eternal City, the other one can go on doing his job in Senate, for the Res Publica and for the Populus Romanus.

[Swaeft]

I myself grew up reading books about the Romans but I can't say I have the same level of knowledge as you Diocle. In any case I have most likely forgotten most of these 'fun facts' I read about in 'did you know' books.

*lowers voice* Pssst, how's the plan for the coup coming along? We've been living under the yoke of this tyrant for far too long!

[King Athelstan]

The Picture and Game Picture Of The Year is live! Go check em out!

Also, this and next week Swaeft will overthrow substitute me, as I'll be away next week. This time around it'll be his practice run, under my watchful eye. So no mutinies!

[Alexander78]

What delightful submissions are presented in the The Picture and Game Picture Of The Year contests... Some of the screens really took my breath away. Wonderfully.
I hope Swaeft will dedicate one of his blog entries to these works. Swaeft, I believe that the scepter of King Athelstan doesn't cause you to postpone the pen.

PS no mutinies!)

Uh am I being stupid or is there a winners thread missing

Nope, you're not, my secret coup de grace has succeeded and I am now the supreme leader!

Actually I'm supposed to do those threads but due to timezone differences (I just woke up) I haven't gotten around to doing it. Working on it now!

I hope Swaeft will dedicate one of his blog entries to these works. Swaeft, I believe that the scepter of King Athelstan doesn't cause you to postpone the pen.

We shall have to see about that, no promises!

PS no mutinies!)

Edit: Just in case any of you are wondering why the threads are not stickied, it will be like that for a bit, one of my revolutionaries has failed me and we have not located the royal glue to sticky threads. He will be dealt with appropriately...but until then the threads will be not stickied.

[Diocle]

.. I am now the supreme leader!

AVE CAESAR AVGUSTVS SVAEFTVS OPTIMVS MAXIMVS! AVE!

[King Athelstan]

Due to a fault the voting threads of this week have been reposted.

[Swaeft]

AVE CAESAR AVGUSTVS SVAEFTVS OPTIMVS MAXIMVS! AVE!

Legatus Diocle, ready the Legio IX Cinematico, we march at once!

Due to a fult the voting threads of this week have been reposted.

Yeah, that one was on me. Apologies all, especially to those who have to vote again

[Swaeft]

Anyone have screenshots from any of the HALO games? I just realized it's GPOTW 117 and there is no better time to submit them (especially if they are pics of the chief)! Too bad the MCC for PC isn't out now.

[Commissar Caligula_]

POTY and GPOTY need MORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE VOTES! 29 and 31 are chump change. Spam the competitions all over the forums.

[Alexander78]

I created a signature with a link to the contests page. But I recently not often on the forum and do not write a lot of posts in other threads and in connection with the work on the server, my signature does not appear on some posts. Anyway, I hope this helps a little bit.

[Swaeft]

@Alexander78 That's very nice of you

[The Wandering Storyteller]

I am unable to add in any new screenshots even after I upload them on image bb. I put the link into the box thingy and then nothing comes up

[Derc]

Check out the signatures of the users above or any posted image whatsoever. Codes are temporary broken. Just wait until tomorrow or whenever it will be fixed.

However, I recommend leaving it like that. Gives the screenshot competition a much more mysterious touch.

@The Wandering Storyteller
Try to turn off the Switch Editor in the message window. The top left icon with the letter A. Although I don't think it will help at the moment. I don't see any images either in user signatures or in contests. Instead of images I see only links.
@Swaeft
Thanks. I think at the signature contest, my signature would have won first place in simplicity. But, as they say, genius lies in simplicity.)

[Swaeft]

@The Wandering Storyteller In the submissions thread(s) you can still post the link to your image should you wish to participate, it should work when the issue is resolved.

@Alexander78 You see, for now yours gives off some idea of where clicking on the link will take you. Mine looks like a bunch of gibberish Genius!
