Welcome to the The Continuous Screenshot Competition VIII - The Original Continuous Screenshot Competitions Around HeavenGames Since 21st May 2006!

______HOW IT WORKS______

Lo and behold!

I present to you, the eighth episode of our beloved, one and only, Continuous Screenshot Competition, which as it name blatantly applies, is where we hold a continuous screenshot competition. Yeah, for real. It's a continuous screenshot competition, where a continuous series of screenshot competitions take place. Quite original, don't you say? I never even thought of the idea that one could hold a continuous screenshot competition in a continous screenshot competition thread! This is truly a magnificent discovery, a crowning achievement of mankind! It even compares to the discovery of sliced bread, and even the discovery of Albert Einstein! There's no doubt that it will go down in the pages of history. Because you see, as quoted from The Free Dictionary, history is defined as "a usually chronological record of events, as of the life or development of a people or institution, often including an explanation of or commentary on those events". Did you notice that I put an emphasis on the bold text? Yes, this is certainly a development of us, the AoKH people, of the AoKH institution. Age of Kings is just your ordinary medieval strategy game, what's the big deal about it? It's got sucky 2D graphics made of properly-designed pixels. And what's even worse is that players don't have the capability of constructing a spaceship, creating a naked female villager without having to mod those VMDLs *now that's a good idea*, or electing Julian Assange as president. So what is it that keeps it strong, after 11 years and many people are still infatuated by it? What's the reason? Well, I have no time to answer that question now, because this thread is where we submit screenshots from the game, not to have an pointless discussion about it. Seriously, why did I derail this monologue to that bit? Wasn't I talking about cranberry sauce? Oh, never mind. No one would read rants like this, anyway.

Anyway, I have to explain the rules, as did the CSC hosts who have passed the throne until it eventually comes to my grasp. Here's how this competition works: Everyone who wishes to enter must take a screenshot that they made which is relevant to the current category, the screenshot can be related to the title literally or abstractly, as long as you can give an explanation of why you say your screenshot relates to the category in hand and doesn't defy any of the rules stated below, it goes in. Make your screenshot as literal, creative or imaginative as you like - as long as it's related to the category in at least one way! Ok, so you’ve got your screenshot all in and ready, what happens next? After the given time, which is usually 4 days if we've got enough entries to be competed (obviously it's not a competition if there's only one entry), the time for entrants will be closed, and then people who did not enter can vote for the screenshot they like. After around three days on average, the person with the most votes is the winner, and they chose the next category - which is why it is a continuous cycle!

There you have it! Enjoy the competition while it lasts!

_________CURRENT COMPETITION_________


186. Category: Hypocrisy
Status: ACCEPTING ENTRIES (closes on the 24th of March at 11:59 PM forum time)

Entries:
  • Fanica
  • Dead_End
  • Possidon


    _________RULES_________

  • No category may be used twice.
  • You may only enter one screenshot per category.
  • You may only enter as an individual; no team efforts.
  • The previous winner cannot compete in the competition he/she set the category for. (For that person would of had an advantage otherwise)
  • In the event that the winner cannot choose the next category a: Super Special Bonkers Bonus Round” will happen, this basically means there is no category and any screenshot can be entered as long as it conforms to the other rules.
  • If there is a tie in the voting, the person who picked the category (last round's winner) will cast the tie-breaker vote.
  • No pasting pictures into your screenshots of anything, period (text is an exception).
  • When it comes to editing your screenshot in a program like Paint, you can remove toolbars/change them to a new border for decoration, but you may not use effects or the program to edit the base of your sceenshot. This includes creating comic-strip photos with multiple screenshots. Any text or effects must not interfere with the screenshot, and these will only be added for presentation, for example giving your screenshot on a wide-screen background would only add to presentation. Voters are reminded the content of the screenshot is what is being judged, not editing it afterward in a paint program.
  • No mapshots. (In other words, no using a full map shot of an entire scenario/map)
  • No modpacks that add in new unit graphics
  • AokTS, Renaissance, GeniED, and other forms of data editing are allowed
  • When it comes to data editing you may use it to your advantage when making a screenshot however when it comes to creating and/or unlocking new/hybrid the usage of new SLPs is not allowed.
  • No taking screenshots from campaigns/scenarios that you did not create.
  • This is an open competition. No need to sign up, just post a screenshot that abides to the selected category.
  • Screenshots must be made only for this competition. No using screenshots previously taken for any reason. You may, however, take screenshots from your campaign in the works that you have announced, but it must be taken specifically for this competition.
  • Competition and voting statuses will close at 11:59pm forum time on the designated deadline.
  • The previous winner and the selector of the category MAY vote.
  • If you are participating in the current competition, you CAN vote for fellow contestants if you want (when you're feeling so humble), but you CAN NOT vote for yourself for obvious reasons.
  • No editing of your screenshot once it has been posted as an entry for the competition (no editing the content/scenery). However Editing typos/spelling errors in text included with/in your screenshot IS allowed
  • If you are caught trying to make smurf accounts or getting people to sign up to AoKH so they can vote for you, and they never post and they only use their registration to give you a vote, you will be disqualified from the week, and for a further length of time based on my discretion . All voters must have an open account at HG. Trying to fix the ballot is a very serious rule, and any attempt to break this rule will have serious consequences.
  • No flaming to other forummers. Criticism of people's work must be constructive.
  • Don't whine if you did not win, better luck next time.
  • Have fun, and try hard!

    Useful Info
  • To take a screenshot, press the "Print Screen" on your keyboard - the picture will be then saved under "Screenshots" in your AoK files (My Computer -> Progam Files -> Microsoft Games -> Age of Empires II -> Screenshot)
  • F11 removes the game time from view. F4 removes the player scores.

    It looks good, though you could also mix some medium water.

    Okay guys, I really need to know your thoughts about this:

    What do you say if from now on, all entries must be sent to my e-mail address, and then I'll upload it to my photobucket account. That way, there's no need to worry for broken links and such, since my account will always remain standing along with all the images stored there.

    Therefore, you don't need to upload them yourselves. It saves you from having to keep the images hosted forever, and IMHO it's easier to send me the pictures and then let me upload it.

    How about it? If majority agrees, I'll go with it. Also, in case you didn't notice, the first two entries by Fanica and NowhereT has been re-uploaded to my photobucket account.

    I love how you designed the water. Welcome to the site. Aye, this thread is a good place to improve your designing skills.

    That's a really good idea - there are so many broken links around from entries that must have been really good.

    Thanks for the welcome

    My Entry.

    EDIT - Personally I've been using the same Photobucket account for four years and I never remove any of my pictures, so mine should be safe for the future. And I do think it'd be a shame if we can't do basic things like making a post with our entries... So my suggestion is that you, like this time, save the uploaded entries to your computer, re-upload them and use the new links in the topic post and for the archives. Oughtn't be much more work than the email solution.

    Good job on the new thread.

    Also, in case any of the winning entries are broken, check this. Doesn't have all of them, but you might be able to use a few.

    Very nice screenshots!

    I just thought of something. Since Turtov is no longer in charge here, I'm guessing he probably wouldn't want to be in charge of the monthly writeup. If so (sorry Turtov if I made the wrong assumption), should we pass that responsibility over to Trisatya or someone else, or just let it die? If this someone else isn't a moderator, they could probably submit it to one of us to post on the news if they like. Just my thoughts.

    @Lord Basse:
    Very well then, I thought it's the best solution too.

    @Turty:
    Ah, thank you very much for the assistance!

    @Possidon:
    Thank you! I'll upload all of the winning entries to a separate album in my photobucket account soon.

    @Leif:
    I'd be happy to do the monthly writeup. If non-moderators aren't allowed to post them themselves, I'll write them every 4 series of competitions and send it to one of you mods.

    @Basse:
    Indeed there's a typo in your shot. If you want, you can edit the text and then send it back again before the deadline.

    Non-moderators don't have the power to post news, so yeah, it would be best to send them no another moderator. Turtov would be the most logical choice, but if not then I could probably do it.

    Someone has been inspired by the "What would you do?" thread, ey?

    Only a little.

    @Leif: Okay then, I'll write them up and then send 'em to you or another mods to post it.

    @Basse: Which one would you prefer as an entry, then? I like the alternative version.

    Also, if it's not a big deal, what do you guys think about getting a newsie up everytime the Accepting Entries and Voting phases come up? I think it'd attract more people's interest this way, thus spurring more entries and votes, but would an accumulation of news every week take a lot of space in the site or something?

    I'll go with the original version. Speaking of that, can you reupload it in full size? It's a bit tiny as it looks right now.

    Having anewsie every round would be alot on the Mods to post it even though I do like the idea and I do think it will attract alot more attention.

    @Basse: Damn it, I tried reuploading your shot but my photobucket keeps resizing it to the way it is now. Can you tell me what I did wrong, since you use photobucket yourself? For now I'll use your own link until I can figure out what's going on.

    @Possidon: Yeah, I know it'd give the mods more work. I also doubt about getting the news section full with such small announcements.

    Try changing upload options to "Best possible quality". I think that's what's doing it.

    It wouldn't be that much extra work, but it would get old really fast. There's not much variability except the theme. However, I think this could be worked fairly well into the monthly writeup.

    @Basse: Tried the best possible quality but it gives me a lower resolution instead. Ah, what the heck. That link's safe enough in your hands anyway.

    @Leif: Good point. I guess a monthly news writeup is more than enough.

    @Yeeb: I'm aware of that, but now that I'm in charge, I decided to change your pic to a camera of my own, the good ol' Nikon D90. The modernization signifies that this thread's always open to improvement, as I like to put it.

    Hey, Andan, you forgot an 'U' in the banner.

    I liked all of the pictures. Fanica's really interesting, with the biblic passage, joshua's pretty funny, and Nowhere's also nice.

    My 3 personal favorites, for now.
