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

______HOW IT WORKS______

Lo and behold!

I present to you, the tenth episode of our beloved, one and only, Continuous Screenshot Competition, which as its 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 5 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_________


337. Category: Wolf Pack - Graphical mods permitted: ?
Status: Voting (closes on the 14th of April at 11:59 PM forum time.)

Entries:
  • Vardamir - 1 (Knaber)
  • Knaber - 3 (Mash, HockeySam18, John the Late)


    _________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)
  • MODPACKS: The winner of the last round also selects whether mods including graphics are allowed. If he decides against it, no modpacks that add in new unit graphics are allowed. This includes downloads from The Blacksmith, or Steam Workshop. If he chooses that mods should be allowed in the following round, then any modpacks are allowed, even when they add graphics.
  • The use of AOK: HD Edition IS Allowed. The Use of new graphics from the expansions The Forgotten and African Kingdoms, however, falls under the restriction of a category with mods allowed.
  • Forgotten Empires counts as a mod in this regulation.
  • 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.
  • The usual time for entries is 5 days, but if there have been less than 2 screenshots submitted, it will get extended.
  • 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.

    IMHO, this shouldn't be allowed or even voted. Those who buy AOE2-HD The Forgotten also have the normal AOE2-HD (which is allowed and have no new objects/graphics), so they don't lose anything. While all others will be at serious disadvantage (even those with HD). And those without AoF won't even know what they vote for. If that is not a problem and the competitive side is not important, then OK.

    I'm not sure everyone realizes it, but AoF adds TONS of new objects. Terrain and decoration (black tile, grass, smoke, barrels, trade goods, rocks, quarry, wood, rain, etc.), new animals (Cow, Camel, Bear, Penguin, Llama, Donkey, Sea gulls), buildings (Slav, Italian tileset + Aqueduct, Colosseum, Amphitheater, burned buildings, 2 new wall types, Fortress, wooden bridge, etc.) and units (amazons, canoe, flame thrower, siege tower, Roman Legionary + civ unique and many others). Most of these are not available in the free non-HD mod Forgotten Empires (which is no longer updated). Also the people who own AoF are a small fraction of all AOE2 players. You may as well allow mods and it might be a smaller difference. Of course that's just my opinion.

    Yeah, I agree with AOE Scout. These HD versions give a major disadvantages to the others with non-HD versions (which makes up a major part of the total aoe2 players).

    So, the final question is, when the voting will begin?

    The swimming effect can be achieved by use of invisible tiles (which can make the game lag if there are too many) or with the use of the POREX trick for villagers. However, that's a different trick than Devastator used (probably just removed moving boats for the purpose of the screenshot), but they've both been around for a good long while.

    I think 'The Forgotten' (the commercial release) should be allowed, it's been officially released and endorsed as the next official expansion and therefore is canon.

    The only people who would have an issue with 'The Forgotten' not being allowed is little kids who's parent's don't allow them to make online purchases with their credit cards, or all our beloved posters from third world nations who play AoK on government subsided toasters who don't have the money or bandwidth to install it.

    Unfortunately, most seem to fall in both the above mentioned categories, so I doubt the majority will want to allow 'The Forgotten'...

    It's not about the money or even the game - it's about screenshot competition. Most people don't have AoF and don't intend to buy it (I can understand why), that's the fact. And those with AoF will not lose anything as they can easily switch to vanilla HD with a single button click from the main screen.

    If you want to post screenshots from AoF, you can already do it in any other thread (there are already some good ones in this thread). You could also create and maintain a new competition thread that is only about The Forgotten.

    Also not all people in the world live in UK or USA and is offensive to assume that everyone is well paid and lives in comfort.

    Nah, Bullshit is what i call the fact that MS wants me to pay for a shitty HD conversion. I already have the original game, and AoFE is free to download. Those few additions made in the HD Edition and the official AoF release aren't even worth opening Steam for.

    Not really that relevant, though there is a similarity going on with AoM 'HD' remake (look at steam: Age of Mythology: Extended edition). Just look at their trailer and tell me if you feel like you totally want to waste your money on that. I've paid quite enough for it back in the days when it was new and popular and stuff, and would rather spend my money elsewhere on a decent game/something not related to gaming at all rather than having a game which is exactly the same except it has 'HD' in it.

    I'm pretty sure a lot of people feel the same way about AoK:HD/AoFE:HD

    I am still wondering why The Conquerors is allowed while The Forgotten is not. Both are official expansions for the official Age of Empires 2 game released by Microsoft. Sure, you can get it bundled with collectors edition, but The Forgotten can also be bought, bundled with Aoe2 HD. If it's a money problem, then why the hell are we, who paid for the steam version, being affected by the people who don't want to pay for the steam version and its expansion? I mean, sure, if you have The Forgotten you can play the normal The Conquerors as well. But if you have The Conquerors for the original release, you can play Age of Kings.

    If we allow The Conquerors as it is now, we should also allow The Forgotten. Both are official expansions and costs roughly the same to add to the base game. The Conquerors expansion costs about 13 Euros as a standalone expansion, while The Forgotten costs 9 Euros. Sure, a collectors edition or gold edition can go as low as $5, but during a steam sale, you can get Aoe2+TF for close to $10. Personally, I paid 38 SEK for The Forgotten, which is about 4 Euros.
    I for one do not support such a vote. I love to come back here and be able to use the "originals" for a change.
    You can still do that, there is nothing stopping you from it.
