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

______HOW IT WORKS______

Lo and behold!

I present to you, the ninth 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 continuous 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_________


275. Category: Next CSC Host
Status: Accepting Entries (closes on the 8th of April at 11:59 PM forum time)

Entries:


_________RULES_________

  • No category may be used twice.
  • If a Category has not been used for 100 Rounds it CAN be used again.
  • 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. This include downloads from The Blacksmith, or Steam Workshop.
  • The use of AOK: HD Edition IS Allowed. It is mandatory for AoK:HD users to state the use of the game in their screenshot. The Use of new graphics from the expansion The Forgotten is however, Not Allowed.
  • The use of Forgotten Empires is forbidden.
  • 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!

    _________Special Rounds_________

    We have decided to add some new Special one-off rounds to celebrate the work of some of the most commit AOK designers - The Modders. These people put years of work into making detailed graphics effectively giving the AOK player an almost brand new game to play. These Special Rounds celebrate the release of some of the biggest Mod Packs released to the AOKH Blacksmith. We are using these rounds as a way of celebrating the exception abilities of AOK Modders and the fantastic way that people are able to expand our beloved game even 10 years after it's initial release. It also opens up our long standing contest to those scenario designers who don't necessarily like the vanilla scenario editor of AOK.

    Each Special round focuses on one Mod Pack chosen by the Host. There are no theme's for these rounds however, each entry must show the new graphics and features of the Modpack.

    Rules
  • Follow all CSC rules unless otherwise stated here.
  • There is no theme in the Special Rounds but you must...
    Use the Mod Pack chosen for the Special round
    Show at least one new graphic from the new Modpack
  • Anybody can enter a screenshot - Even if you won the previous round
  • These rounds are Special Rounds. The winner will not get to choose the new theme but instead, the winner of the round before will choose the theme.
  • If there is a Tie and the previous winner has enter a screenshot the voting will go to Deadlock and the head judge (the Host) will decide on the winning screenshot.


    _________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.

    What is traveling minstrel? Curious because there is a whole 32 page thread named after it

    You guys got some real whack signatures.

    I don't know of this thread but I will look it up after I post this.

    A traveling minstrel was a medieval musician that traveled between towns singing and playing an instrument, traditionally a lute. They tended to sing about heroic deeds or how great the king was or something along those lines.

    This is a pretend picture of one:



    I'm sure if Kor turned up here, he'd be able to correct most of my description (I'm far from a history expert) but my description should be a perfectly accurate stereotype!

    This will be news'd again. We'll get newer people knowing about it.

    It doesn't take long to cobble together a quick screenshot, guys!

    Announcement:

    The entries of the round following the current Traveling Minstrel round will be posted publicly in the AoKH poll. At the moment, the winner of the next round will still likely be decided in-thread instead of the poll. However, the poll will help draw attention to this lagging contest and hopefully bring in some new blood. Also, hopefully it'll bring an incentive to enter a screenshot.

    Using the AoKH poll for the CSC will probably not become standard, but we'll probably do it from time to time. Also, you can start expecting regular news from the staff about the CSC.

    I really wanted to submit an entry to this round, but I lacked the time, and I will be gone for about a week. Hopefully the current round can be finished again soon.

    I've never heard Sean Connery say Possidon. I probably never will unless I kidnap him and force him to say it. I mean... it's not even a proper word!

    It's just how I imagine him to say it.

    I imagine him pronouncing all your screen names.

    Not my best but hey.

    Entry

    Grayscale Version

    It would be much better if the grayscale version was allowed.

    Uhm... wasn't that a film or somethin?

    Currently working on:

    Modern Warfare (Mod): 10%
    I changed the plans for it, i'm now making some kind of near-future mod that keeps the main structure and tree of AOK. 5 civs with 2-3 UUs planned for now.
    posted 07-21-12 02:18 PM CT (US)     1149 / 2679  
    that's one of your best screenies yet Possidon.

    And it's exactly the idea i had in mind. editing the image goes a long way though.

    @GeneralR: yeah, and a good one at that.
    posted 07-21-12 05:22 PM CT (US)     1150 / 2679  
    Really you think so? I think it would be good but only the grayscale version which unfortunately is not allowed. I think it really shows the neo-noir style of the film. Which was what I was aiming at. I tried to get the unit to be visible under the fog of war but I found it difficult to do with triggers and couldn't find a data file that let me do it.

    Link

    I haven't seen the film that you based the name on, so I improvised. It's got streets and sin... so... yeah. I would have got this in earlier (I made it earlier), but I have been camping and have only had access to a punishingly slow internet connection.
    posted 07-25-12 08:10 AM CT (US)     1152 / 2679  
    I've only seen the opening scene of Sin City so thats what I based my screenshot on.

    Nice screenshot though Felix.

    Well I was more referring to 'sin city' as a general concept, rather than a direct correlation to the actual film.

    Anyway, vote: Possidon

    Possidon, I sent you an email, looking forward to your reply. If you don't use the email in your profile let me know and I'll resend it.
