try again

this

this

is what happens when i try to recreate maps based purely upon memory.

epilogue

1. hope you enjoyed that

2. i am more proud of that story than i am of that race

3. as i am typing this, the clock says 12:25

4. pissed off and unhappy make more great writing material

5. this story is dedicated to my dear friend and accomplice: Flagmyidol

PART 3 / Finale:

"shit" i thought. not the first word to come into my mind, but probably the most G-rated. its time for bed, but no no no i want the best possible chance to taste the sweet juices of victory and to beat this computer. im smarter than a computer, after all. i can multiply 7 and 34 in my head in 1 second. cant we all?

anyway, once again i hide the first window (deleting the second one) and open yet another. a little guess and check here a little memorization there. its a little easier this time, i must admit. i've done it once before havent i? i add a rocket somewhere. "what the hell" i thought, "if this works, im in freaking heaven." it takes merely 5 minutes this time around and im mildly happy with my quick wits. cross my fingers. cross my toes. the hell with it cross my eyes i need all the freaking luck i can get. sweat trickles down my brow. (not really, but its quite dramatic eh?) take a deep breath. this had better work its like 11:30.

A SCRIPT IN THIS MOVIE IS CAUSING MACROMEDIA FLASH 7 TO RUN SLOWLY. IF IT CONTINUES TO RUN, YOUR COMPUTER MAY BECOME UNRESPONSIVE. DO YOU WANT TO ABORT?

you can probably guess my reaction. pissed off? understatement. unhappy? im beyond that. almost like i was in a trance. i sat there quietly. slowly, i X'd out both of the Neditor windows and then wrote you this story.

THE END

PART 2:

no i do not want to abort the script. this went on for another 10 minutes as my mind raced (poor choice of words) trying to come upon a solution to my terrible, terrible problem. well godammit. i suppose the only solution is to keep a cool head and abort the script and accept defeat.

defeat wasnt good enough for the computer. it wanted to rub it in a little bit. nothing happened. the message stopped showing up, but the map was still there, in tact. was i free? had the reign of terror finally ceased? i wish. the screen was still frozen, but there was still hope! i could see the entire map in plain view so again, my heart thwumping against my chest, my mind wanders to a possible answer to a perilous question.

aha! i hide the screen, open up another window, start Neditor and tediously spend many more suspenseful minutes going back and forth between windows and copying the data merely by looks onto an empty canvas. the fact that there was no grid on the original copy only made the gap between me and victory even wider.

finally! i was done! will it work? i hope so dearly that it will work! home. page down. page up.

and it comes in long story/rant form too!
here i go:

So i was just goofing off making a random map (thats how i often make maps, goof off in Neditor) and i came across some interesting tile formations. interesting enough to do something with, anyway. I edited these tiles to my liking and somehow, they formed a race. here comes the sad part. the race i had made had all the basics for a noob race and more: close calls, flow, THWUMPS even! im sure you would have been proud. On a scale of 1 - 10, i was 11 proud of this. i made my first race and it was one of the coolest things i had done in my time on Numa (it didnt look great of course being a noob race, but boy was i happy with it) so it was, by my standards, absolutely perfect, but, of course, that wasnt good for me. i couldnt settle for 11 outta 10 i had to go for the big 12. i was all ready to send it in to the world of fame and happiness where my buddy Flagmyidol would say "gee eganic, thanks for dedicating your first race to me you're a cool guy". i set up the submission sheet with all the assets: RCE, first agd gets a ded, ded to Flagmyidol blah blah blah. all that was left was the actual map data. i playtested it again, and lone behold, my idiotic mind somehow stumbled upon the possibility that i could make this map slightly more outrageous than it already is by adding a few floorguards (about 6) for added effect and close callage. home. page down. page up.

what? no. i do not want to abort an hour and a half of hard work i spent on my friends dedication. no i do not want to abort my very first race genre map which i was absolutely proud of. no.

of course the computer didnt like that. message gone. no response. about 10 seconds of heart stopping suspense later, i see the message appear once more upon my screen.

DO YOU WANT TO ABORT THE SCRIPT?

well

the point is it's kinda impossible to lose if you follow the flow.

Great job

On an unrelatyed note, this would also be a cool survival :P

wow

well

the trap doors are necessary, i kind've liked the little dodge you have to do, and the hold right would mess up the rockets, so i added mines to prohibit it.
make it so you can hold right immediately. The end was disastrous, take out the last three trapdoors. Other than that, it's great. 4.

Oh right, it's also cheatable.

heeey

i kinda didnt flinch this time woo. 3.5 up awesome stuff placement but a bit ugly
