I so wish we could just give everyone a key, so much effort has gone into this stuff.
More than anticipated, I think.

at least thats what some of them are... For some of these cakes its become a marzipan/fondent molding competition... Not complaining at all, it's just not what I expected. Still sick cakes tho.

Perhaps naming it a cake contest is misleading, I tried to convey (in the rules section) that you could basically bake/make whatever, as long as it's edible. IE if you wanted to make a main-course type of meal with a SC theme that would have been fine as well.

I don't see anything different from your cake either b00ts...Stop putting people down on how they are making their cakes.....Rules didn't stipulate how they should be made and besides all the cakes are really damn awesome especially Vinc's and Pape's....I see the models as an extension of the cake while some people didn't incorporate the cake into the model that is fine...They put a lot of time and effort into making the best cake they can and they should get the props for it.

I think Pape did it nicely with the creep as the top and then his Jello Bane ling on top ...same is said for Vinc's cake with the hatch + creep + drones mining :D....

Whoa.. When did I put someone down?.. Right after I made the comment I said that "they are still sick cakes tho"... And the difference with mine is its carved out of the cake..not molded on top of it... However that is not to say the latter is less difficult, on the contrary, marzipan (and especially certain types of fondent) can be quite frustrating to get teh right shape, and in some ways shows more 'ability'. In no way was I trying to take away anything from those cakes. Like a lot of people have been sayin, this isnt what I expected, ie. the amazing quality.

I'm just bored and reading the boards and posting... My intention was not to put anyone down. My apologies if it came across that way. I love all the cakes.

What I find the biggest tragedy of all is that the same number of keys for the baking contest will be allotted for the guide contest. With the baking contest, people invested a lot of time, money, and creativity into it. I find with the guides, a lot of them are half assed and have a lot of copied and pasted stuff in them.

Sorry to all the people who wrote well thought out guides, though. A lot of them probably took a lot of effort, but I find that for the most part, the top ~80% cakes could probably compete with the top guides

I hope I don't sound like too much of an ass My heart just kind of sunk for that kid and his mom who made their cake...

Edit: Okay I feel bad now, I just want to apologize to the people who made guides, it's just that some of the ones in the general forums seemed kinda sloppy to me.

Damn those other shitty sc sites and their equal number of cd keys!

teamliquid getting the same number of beta keys is just plain undiluted warm horse piss.

fuck these cakes have been really really crazy. mad effort by everyone. mad props.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

Lol, just FYI there's a third person involved in that cake. You can see his hand in one of the pics. He was clearly the guy who reads TL and decided to make a cake.

Not to discredit their work or anything. I'm just saying it's not as magical as a 10 year old kid asking his mom to help him bake a cake for an SC contest.

Really nice cake though

I don't know the exact numbers, but saying "every site is getting the same" is actually NOT true. The bigger/older sites ARE getting more.

I dunno how much I should say, I just feel that while there are situations where I'd agree with you, I don't think blizzard deserves flak in this particular case~

Perhaps some other award can be given out. Like the official title "Cake Master."
