You mean the issues Photobucket has? It tends to routinely decrease the quality of .gif images for most accounts. Take a look at these two images, for example...
Overlap the two images together. The one on the left is the result of Photobucket. The one on the right is "fresh" from Court Records. Look at the lines of his jacket.
By the way, is there any specific order that you guys will be playing the trials in? You know how Gumpei and Ping' gave a list last time. Might we get one this time as well?
And will we receive running commentary/streams of consciousness or reviews/summaries at the end of each playing, or will we get one big thing come announcement time? ^^
Oh, by the way, I might as well mention that the last "Lionel 'Spike' Richards" thing I posted wasn't just random poetic junk. It was actually a little... hm.. puzzle to get you guys hype for the eventual release of our case
Uh... What? I'm sorry I don't play any of those games like League of Legends or Wacraft so I don't know what you mean... XP Anyway, that's not the answer.
Anyone who was in the xat two nights back (Zeta, Kwando, Rune... may have seen it, I don't really remember) may recall that may internet was kinda crapping out on me causing imgur to take a few minutes just to load a single sprite. Welp... it got worse. Not sure why, not sure how, but my internet decided to take a vacation when I needed it most and just plain collapsed on me. So I got absolutely none of the last minute I REALLY needed to get this in a useable condition. Which means I missed the deadline. :/
Sucks, but that's the way it goes. Rest of my weekend is filled to the brim with two tests and a big project due on Monday. Y'know, things I've been putting off to do work on this every minute I can. So best case scenario, I pour all my day into making work on Monday and have it ready to go for Tuesday. Really sucks, I wanted to see how I faired against the greats. Next time, DWaM! Next time, I'm coming for you! *shakes fist*
Should've put more time into tossing this in the editor instead of doing it all last minute (it seriously took me 6 hours straight just to copy and paste everything in, and that's not counting tossing in sprites or changing voices). But, lesson learned. Valuable stuff to know about using this "write everything in a document than transfer over" method. Makes the script way prettier, but you underestimate the crap out of how long you're copying and pasting. So yeah, big apology to Zeta and Wooper and to all the other competitors. I really wanted to give you a good fight.
Good luck those who did manage to get their entries in on time, I look forward to playing them whenever I have the free time. ... Which will probably be next month because last few weeks of school and all. Go dethrone the dude with a mask, I believe in you. Kinda.
I'm currently trying to set up a stream for when we play through DWaM's trial. Estimated Success Probability: 5%

@Truf:
Oh, I was wondering why the entry count was at 5. XP Well, it's a shame - I was actually looking forward to what dem masks could've possibly meant. But oh, well. We'll have an epic battle some other time, I guess.
@Wooper:
Wait, hold on - stream? Will it be you playing the game or you just giving thoughts? If it's the former, I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to hold off on that. We're not releasing the game until it's completely finished and I'd personally appreciate it if the details are not revealed until it's complete (because as a game, it works a LOT better if people don't know going in AND if they see it through to the end; and considering we're nowhere near 100% completion...). :/ The latter will be fine, I suppose, as long as it doesn't devolve into too many spoilers.
Great... It looks like I'll have to change my .gif host again.
@ deHughes:
I was really looking forward to yours. Ah well, there's nothing that could have been done. I'm sorry that you had the technical difficulties, and best of luck with those exams!
@ Zeta/Wooper:
So, it was only enigma/Tap, Koopa/Zeel, DWaM/Ping, Gav, Blackrune (who I definitely did not forget the first time), and Lind who turned something in? A lot lower than I expected. And considering how many aren't turning theirs in right away... Wow. A lot lower than expected.
