User "Sandy" is not and was never a member of http://demozoo.org/groups/996/. Where did that come from?

Also "ptrance" and "Rayn" are the same member, just with 2 handles. It was ptrance before it became Rayn.

xTr1m - 00:44 31 December 2013 #

Also... 2074? http://demozoo.org/parties/by_date/ :)

xtr1m: Breakpoint 2010 resultfile ( http://demozoo.org/parties/1/results_file/779/ ) says:

Competition....................Photo

04 373 nom nom nom - Sandy_ / BluFlame

Are you sure it was not a groupmate of yours under a fake nick? Normally resultfiles replicate what the submitter entered while submitting the release.

dipswitch - 01:12 31 December 2013 #

In fact, I doubt that these two releases under the Sandy entry at http://demozoo.org/sceners/3641/ are in fact from one and the same person - the Breakpoint 2010 entry filename is named in German (hoernchen.png), while the other one from 2013 has a Finnish title.

T-101 - 01:17 31 December 2013 #

I has the answer to that. That finnish gfx is from a party I organized and I know karalyn, Sandy is a friend of hers. I will split that

dipswitch - 01:46 31 December 2013 #

thanks!

dipswitch - 01:47 31 December 2013 #

still, we need to solve the mystery of the other, assumingly german, sandy... :P
xtr1m, could you ask around your groupmates?

party http://demozoo.org/parties/series/737/ belongs to series http://demozoo.org/parties/series/72/ instead of being an own series. Thanks!

maxwell - 13:05 31 December 2013 #

some limpninja demos have an extra "partymeister"-title iirc.

based on the release-date i guess these are same:
http://demozoo.org/productions/37602/ = http://demozoo.org/productions/38305/
http://demozoo.org/productions/10064/ = http://demozoo.org/productions/57074/
http://demozoo.org/productions/8054/ = http://demozoo.org/productions/54299/

dipswitch - 19:28 31 December 2013 #

maxwell, thanks for pointing this out. anyone from limp ninja around who can confirm this? shifter?

dipswitch - 19:29 31 December 2013 #

factor 6: fixed.

and a happy new year to everyone!

Thanks Dipswitch for pointing out this can be fixed:
* Being able to have 4k Exe Graphics in a competition of 4k Intros (with the proper type). See http://demozoo.org/productions/23398/ -> part of the TUM 4k Compo, but really is a 4k exe graphics.

Cheers and a happy new year!

I accidentially uploaded a screenshot twice: http://demozoo.org/productions/87909/screenshots/ thanks for removing one of them

xTr1m - 19:31 1 January 2014 #

OK I already told Saga via IRC, Sandy was the nick of the girlfriend of Hel, she never formally joined BluFlame, I'm unsure why she released it under our group's name; so this means that it's just her release and not the groups, and that she indeed is no member of BluFlame.

Hey, this is not mine (Zoom/Conspiracy), but I am unsure how it should be fixed:
http://demozoo.org/graphics/21000/

The database has a number of ZooMs but the zip doesn't have any clue about which one of them is the author.

ltk_tscc - 21:20 1 January 2014 #

Zoom: I fixed this... seemed to be Zoom / Anarchy from France here :)

dipswitch - 21:28 1 January 2014 #

xtr1m, and she's from germany, right? then i'd just add a german flag to her and a small note, so that noone assigns anything else to the profile.

ltk_tscc: alright then, thanks :)

xTr1m - 23:34 1 January 2014 #

dipswitch: acknowledged.

Hi guys.
I have made a little mistake while uploading some screenshots :
http://demozoo.org/productions/10301/
How to delete them so I can upload the proper ones instead ? (I used to be able to do it but it seems it's not possible anymore).

ltk_tscc - 07:29 2 January 2014 #

Solo: deleted.

SoLO - 07:39 2 January 2014 #

ltk_tscc: thx. The good screenshots are online now :)

menace - 08:00 2 January 2014 #

To come back to http://demozoo.org/forums/post/272/#post-272 and http://demozoo.org/forums/post/273/#post-273 - I find it highly unlikely that this is Zoom/Anarchy. That he would come back out of retirement after four years to release a fullscreen at a party in FINLAND seems a stretch. Will create a new Zoom, and take it from there.

Browsing the site from a mobile device is a less-than-perfect experience. ;) You should look into adding/fixing responsive breakpoints or have a separate, mobile CSS.

Quote: "Are you sure you want to delete Excess's alternative name 'Hexcess'? This will cause all releases under the name 'Hexcess' to be reassigned back to 'Excess'."

Why?

The whole point is that "Hexess" _isn't_ an alternative name for "Excess", and any and all releases linked to the "Hexess" group name shouldn't be linked to "Excess" at all. Me no understandy logicy.

gloom - 09:07 2 January 2014 #

The icons for "Group" and "Scener" are pretty identical - more often than not I find myself clicking the wrong thing because a group and a scener has the same name (like, myself), and they're both icons of people. :)

ltk_tscc - 09:08 2 January 2014 #

Menace: Intersting about Zoom... then it was just wrong linked to Artcity and Artcity has the picture under the wrong Zoom :/

Quote: "Gloom was an organizer of Solskogen 2002, Kindergarden 2006 and Solskogen 2010, Solskogen 2011, Solskogen 2012 and Solskogen 2013."

How can I edit this portion of "my" profile?

menace - 09:17 2 January 2014 #

Gloom: You can not. But feel free to tell me, and I'll update the profile accordingly.

There are 2 different entries for Madenmann aka MadMan. Is it possible to merge those?

menace - 09:51 2 January 2014 #

tomas: Yep, on it. Give me three minutes.

gloom - 09:54 2 January 2014 #

Menace: please just remove the whole description. I'd rather have it empty than a half-correct list of parties I organized. :)

menace - 09:56 2 January 2014 #

Gloom: Your wish is my command.

tomaes - 10:13 2 January 2014 #

menace: Cool. How do I add real names, btw.?

http://demozoo.org/sceners/17346/
(Shouldn't be in the field for alternative nicks, I guess)

menace - 10:18 2 January 2014 #

tomaes: Normal users cannot edit real names, and for good reason. I have added what you entered as his real name now, but with a caveat - we would very much like for him to confirm himself that it is OK to show his real name - or see some evidence that he has recently ok'd it for online visibility (e.g. he has it on his public pouet profile), or I will be forced to remove it for the time being.

Privacy matters.

tomaes - 10:32 2 January 2014 #

Sure. His real name is on the Wildmag page, this own page(s), in the nfo files of his prods etc. He used to be a CG researcher, too. I think he's fine having his name mentioned here. :)

menace - 10:36 2 January 2014 #

tomas: Fair enough, thanks for letting us know :)

gloom - 11:28 2 January 2014 #

tomaes: side-note: just because it was in some NFO-files released years ago, does not mean someone approves of it being used on a website. :)

Tygrys: I see a fair amount of productions exist for that platform, so fair enough. Will add the platform shortly.

Unlock: Done.

I have just added placeholder information for the Sam Coupe platform; if you or anyone else wishes to write a more complete write-up about the platform - especially in relation to the demoscene - let me know, and I will hook it up. Same goes for royalty-free images of that platform (or any other).
