Mopolauta

I hate it when everything I use forces my emoticons into emojis, I don't understand why they would ever do such a thing. Emoticons are ascii so they're universal, but an emoji can look like two entirely different things on different platforms. And they're ugly.

I hate technology.

Ruben

On some days when I open EOL I'm not even sure if I do it because I truly want to play/make levs at the moment, or if I'm just mindlessly following a habit. It's comfortable to just turn off my brain and do the usual stuff instead of thinking how I could spend my day in a more interesting productiv...

I would never abort battle in queue unless starter tells me to abort. Usually when you want to start battle on time, you come early, you ask people to fill the queue and then you add battle to queue or if there are no battles and you have some other level, start the level and then immediately add y...

Ruben

There's no rule anywhere that certain battles have precedence over others. If you have something preannounced you can ask the other starter nicely and I'm sure in most cases they'd be fine with it being aborted and started later. It's just a minor annoyance if they had planned to eat jelly beans an...

And that's their problem. Usually it's not a big deal, and a few (even many) minutes overtime is oke. But again, if people get pissy because someone aborted their battle when there had been a preannouncement then that's just stupid.

Like why is a tiny line of grass visible between the tree and the bike? Does zoom/resolution have anything to do with this?

More importantly, why do you have pictures in front?

Ruben

I don't really read eol chat when I draw levs, sometimes I check queue. I don't like people that draw lev then come to eol and moan that levs have been added in the meantime. There is common sense when someone is about to add some long ff or something like that, but a lot of people just add levs wi...

100% agree.

Also, you don't need to manually upload your winrec, this isn't Belma =D Well you have to enter a level for the rec to automagically upload, in Belma only difference was having to press F11 to upload as a winner. So if Kaz plays 10min of a 20min battle then leaves, if he wins the winning replay won...

Ruben

Man, probably the most annoying thing in EOL for me is when I prepare evening tea with cookies, do finishing touches for my level, and when I'm just about to add it and enjoy nice spy with food, someone else adds a battle. In the best case it's just some 10 min juka lev, in the worst case it's a fu...

Ruben

Ok yeah very np. Wish there was some app that sent a message to your phone if your level has been aborted/stopped, maybe it could alert you if you have won a bael without uploading rec or sach too. I tend to spy my own battles. Also, you don't need to manually upload your winrec, this isn't Belma =D

Ruben

I once had a sick level I was gonna start like 30min balle, put it in queue, youtube like 20min then go to EOL and see it aborted in favor of some kind of event. Don't remember which event or when this happened really but could be nice with a warning. Yeah I think it was EGP2. Tried getting a hold ...

Ruben

Hey.. did I say that even once this time? Because I knew my condition and that I wouldn't do very well so I really tried to concentrate on playing and not horroring the levels! Also I believe there weren't any volt start levels, good job. This time it was me who was the real horror! You did on a co...

Ruben

Only FOUR HOURS to go now. The spam is over, only the contest remains. Good luck and have fun! =D

Ruben

Only ONE DAY remaining, tomorrow is the big day! Don't forget your hoyling shoes.

Ruben

Only TWO DAYS to go! EGP4 features five levels made by me, and one level made by Reefer (though you can blame me for the visuals).

Ruben

It's getting closer now. The Grand Tour airs tomorrow, but that's not important, what's important is that in only THREE DAYS you'll all be witnessing the amazing Elma Grand Prix 4. It is going to be the last one this year, so make sure not to miss it! https://s21.postimg.org/p1bso7q0n/EGP4_Teaser5.p...

Oh no! Another snapshot was axxudentally leaked. How awful.

Only 5 days to go!

Ruben

Yeah that's pretty sick. Cross in four moves and looks like he skipped PLL by delaying a corner? I tried looking at the solution but I'm no expert so hard for me to say exactly what's going on. I wonder how many hours went into that WR.

Ruben

Some of you may have seen it before, this tiniest little nibble of a teaser.

Elma Grand Prix 4 Sunday the 20th of November at 19:00 GMT This one is a real kicker. The levels are short, they are tricky, and they are magnificent. You don't want to miss it! Rules Over the course of 100 minutes you will be subjected to 6 levels that have been carefully crafted for your pain and...

Ruben

You could still be partially right though. I always play at roundabout 60 and I've never had this issue, so it could be something that only happens on super high fps.

Ruben

Sure thing, Ruben. I won't make the same mistake and insult women though as they form a considerable part of my potential voters. I will insult woman haters instead and get 50% of votes more! 53% of white American women voted for Mr. "Grab Them By The Pussy," I don't think you'll be able ...

I have a good plan to become the next president of the USA. In four years I'll go there, run for president and keep repeating every day, round and round, all over again, that I will make America even greater and build a wall twice as high. 8) Don't forget to insult mexicans, gays, women and muslims...

Ruben

Election is over. We will have to wait and see what happens. The effects might not be seen for years. Or it might be immediate. There are a lot of protets. Though if we've learned anything from recent events (NSA reveal, occupy wall-street) they disappear the moment the media stops paying attention.

Ruben

I wasn't sure about me being on FEM 2017, but now I deffinitely need to go! on topic: After all, I am not rly that devastated about Trump winning. He'll realize soon that he can't make such bold statements and offend everyone around him now when he's a president. Hopefully. But he absolutely can. H...

Trump is an interesting man and good bussinessman, People like to say that, but it's just not true. His business ventures have been spectacularly unsuccessful throughout the years. Different businesses of his have gone bankrupt 5 times, and he's in massive debt. That's almost incredible when you co...

Hillary is the same old basic politician, who is corrupt in the same old boring ways. Trump is a glob of bile. Seems like an easy choice to me. Then again the American people elected Bush. Twice. We also have Stein, of course, who is certifiably crazy, or alternatively Johnson is mezmerisingly cluel...

Concentrating on grass and pics in levs just feels liek picking a car by its color. Like suar, if you hev a nice car, maybe you also want to give it nice paint, but that's probably one of the last things you care about. And you can't redeem a Lada by painting flames on the side (although maybe...) ...

I recently remembered another of my elma dreams. I think I talked about it in chat before. This is from back when World Battle Cup 2 was getting closer and closer and I was really excited about it. So one night it started for me prematurely, however the first level was really really weird. Disappoi...

You're fucking awesome, iCS! No more unshirted kuskis!

Inferno - it was oke I guess. I would prefer less chase scenes because just like in Jason Bourne they mostly feel very empty imo. It would be way more interesting if instead there was a stronger focus on historical facts and such (like it was cool to learn about the origins of the word "quaran...

Only tried 10 mins in SL, but once you find the easiest style, it's very hoylable. I see it's almost the same as Zero has posted. Most likely other elmans have finished with this style as well. I wonder if multiple styles are possible. The easiest style: http://www.recsource.tv/r/uibgteqrfk Are the...

Ye sounds like a great idea, although there's always the danger of way too many participants, so much testing is needed.

Ruben

OMG!

Damn nice! You should get them to actually wear them too =D

EDIT: Oke the shirts are quite simple, but very nice to have some distinction.

Ruben

Daaaaamn

Can't wait to see how this goes!

Ruben

Yeah, I very much adhere to those principles as well. When making effort levs I spend quite a lot of time giving them a specific style or theme, and making them look balanced. In my opinion the aestethic is absolutely essential in making a level that's nice to play. That being said, if a level is ba...

Is it possible to make a list of needed special libraries etc.? This way maybe I can make a Mac wrapper without just stabbing in the dark. Guesswork hasn't gotten me much thus far, the only thing that actually works without crashing is the Replay Manager.

I got tiny arrow keys and no numpad, so alias is very nice.

I appreciate being included in such a poll, quite fun, it shows that it's not completely impossible being a newcomer in this scene. That being said, I'm not an ideal choice by a long way. I suspect most mans don't trust me that much, but I also doubt that I can run any cheat-checking tools on OSX, s...

Ruben

To be honest, this has to happen right away, because if it takes any longer all enthusiasm is going to disappear, and fast. I'd nominate myself, but for obvious reasons that won't happen. A pro who doesn't play internals anymore would be ideal.

As for hyping, part of that would be brainstorming ideas to reach the people not in lauta. Those mainly just playing EOL. If anyone has ideas for that, they can just come with them here as well.

Magnificent Seven was oke action movie imo. Perhaps a bit excessive on the plot armour, but good fun either way. Until the very last scene.
