I still have to release my guide to saving a plane full of passengers from terrorists.

You should write a guide on how to make money from ESPORTS.
|
Should I even bother to update my list? ):
Thanks for the props though!
Even though you misspelled my name ):<

Ahaha, I was going to check how you spelled it before I clicked post but I forgot T_T! Sorry.

"It's cool" fanatacist said to himself. I guess I'll let my guide blog die out now. I will be making a week 2 poll though (: Then maybe a final poll? WHO KNOWS! "when you think I am down I will get up and sit on you" -- physician fanatacist 2009 (C)

GOGO crappy Grobyc guide!
I want this so bad! T_T
|
I will cry if that investing guide doesn't win
|
Question; Can we do more than one guide to submit? I have afew ideas, well actually just the main one that I should do/know the most about/think I could contribute the most to, may not be the most popular, where I'd love to do some that might appeal more to the crowds of TL.net..
|
how can anything top the investing guide?

No limit on the number of entries, but only 1 can win keys.

Are the modding guides considered two seperate guides, or one big guide?

Because in card counting, it is mathematically proven that you will make money.

Just like the cake competition. It's no surprise though.

There is a huge pool of potential entrants who are highly motivated. When there's a will, there's a way!
|
Isn't that Art of TvZ Han-Bang guide too old to be eligible?
|
Sweden33719 Posts
You are right, I completely missed that.
|
FrozenArbiter,
I can't begin to describe how wonderful this contest is. There are so many interesting topic here to teach me about things that I never considered learning about before. I love it.

I really hope this guide thing becomes TL feature even after the contest is over. I realize the betakey is a huge motivation but it will be great if ppl keep making those awesome and useful guides in the future

Several others including myself have been doing it since a while ago, and lately they often get featured on the front page.

EDIT: Oh wait, you didnt.. I wonder which guide I mistakenly didn't place in the humor category then -__-;;
I'm almost positive I got a PM with a guide that had ("humor =P" written after the title). Oh well, I'll change it then!

No updates to guides may be made after 18:00 KST (see clock at top right of TL). 18:00 KST is 11 AM CET, 5 AM EST and 2 AM PST.
If you need to make changes to your guide (such as correcting spelling errors, or fixing dead links), send me a PM!
Editing after the hour may lead to disqualification.
Thank you.

ill counter your follow by sending a PM of my own! nice guide btw, i need to learn more openings
|
Thanks. I haven't looked at yours too much but I was like "Oh no!" when I first clicked the link. It seems pretty well done.
|
haha thanks, also we were supposed to pm our entries to the account 'betacontest' right? (it was the one linked in the thread). (as in that account and not FA)
|
Can't really go wrong with doing as the instructions say.

Why isn't the contest decided yet? You've had a few hours...
Lol j/k I dunno how you guys are going to judge this in any sane amount of time (the cake contest is really difficult also but I guess it shouldn't take as long at least)

(as in that account and not FA) BetaContest account is like 99% me anyway, I just made it because I 1) Didnt want 200 PMs in my main inbox, 2) I wanted other staff to be able to handle stuff in case something happened (ie my internet went out for a longer period or something).
So basically, yeah you are supposed to send it to BetaContest but if you sent it to me, the effect is the same.

Good luck with the decision-making process! Must be rough, breaking hearts and choosing which dreams to fulfill ):

Man, I'm so sad. Some of the other guides are so damn good there's no way I'm even in the running.

Lol j/k I dunno how you guys are going to judge this in any sane amount of time (the cake contest is really difficult also but I guess it shouldn't take as long at least) Yeah. I feel really sorry for the judges who are all going to have to read Nightmarjoo's 20 page guide to mapping hahaha.
I wish I knew what the criteria was... Some of the guides are on such obscure topics that I don't think any of the staff will be able to even judge whether or not the person who wrote it knows what they're talking about, so it's going to have to be more than that. I know for even some of the really long ones, I was just shaking my head a little ahaha.

I have a small request. Could you change the name of my guide here in the first post from from "A history of Starcraft", to "A history of Starcraft, Team Liquid and everything"?
Thanks in advance. Best regards

Dumb question: Is the contest over, or am I able to post a guide today?

Over, sorry.

Judging is taking place in the MiR, and will finish on Friday at 12:00 pm TL time. After that we will ake a news post and announce the winners.

So I've been looking through a few of these and there are a lot of good ones! I've seen all the cakes, but I participated in that contest and it only took a few minutes to marvel at them all, it takes quite a bit longer to read guides.
But a lot of them look worth it! I'm glad SC2 has fostered this much zealousness.

Hey, FA, I don't know about others, but I'd really like to download some of these guides. Is there anyway you could make these available for download? Or am I going to have to copy and paste everything? Either way, I'm getting some these guides..hehe

Patience please. I think we can all agree a good judgement after reading all the guides is better than a hasty one.

lol, just hope one of the judges didn't get stoved during the judging window.
|
or maybe they got stoved on faoi....
|
After trying to relax from a frustrating session with the Rubiks cube! :O
|
O shit no one wrote a guide to judging, we're all fucked
|
Guys come on, judging guides is like masturbation; it is to be savored like a fine wine.
|
ill get right on that, to be called "judgment and adpating to the metagame"
