Why UD is not getting map submissions

Nov 23, 2003 00:59 Why UD is not getting map submissions
UD, I couldn't figure out how to send maps in for the contest. Neither could Q. Who knows who else? I don't even have 'winzip'. Nor do I use ftp sites or know how to upload anything to ftp. I don't have a clue how to make an archive or arrange the files the way the website says, either. You have made this process needlessly complex, considering many people aren't at the level of computer literacy you are at. Why not just allow the maps to be sent 'as is' to an email address? Anyway, this is probably why you're not getting many contestants.

Nov 23, 2003 03:52
for those who cannot understand what i have asked, just mail it to me in a zipped file, to winbolo1x1@yahoo.com

or better yet dcc it to me

send the exact same batch file as the one i requested in the instructions. it really isnt hard guys.

Maybe my 'uncle bob' can also explain what 'dcc' and 'batch file' is.
Nov 23, 2003 04:08
Dcc is sending over irc...you right click underdog......go to DCC>SEND find the file click it he accepts........ *gasp* it sends.....its revolutionary! batch file........who knows what he's talking about he's prolly drunk or something

Would it be better to not ask the question for fear of getting scorned Suicide Jockey? Can you design and build a hydrostatic clutch? Install a 10-zone oil heating system? But, hey, I know your sarcasm was only in good fun. :wink: :wink:
Nov 23, 2003 16:10
the part i couldnt figure out was how to UPLOAD the maps......i had em all in a zip file and stuff......i think ill just email em...of course now i hafta make new maps cuz i released the other ones (sigh)

You mean we can't use maps we've already uploaded to 'map collections'? But thosr are the only maps I got.

i believe so. :(

Install the 10-zone oil heating system i could prolly do...could install/design/build a normal clutch lol hydrostatic ones are like the ones used in some cooling fans that as heat builds up it engages more so the fan spins faster right?
Nov 24, 2003 05:36
hehe, ya
Nov 24, 2003 23:04
So can or can't we submit maps that are already in out map collection?
Nov 25, 2003 04:36
You guys can also upload maps to the contest here. Please follow the guidelines on map contest web page for uploading maps.
Nov 25, 2003 06:20
ahhh, usefulll....
Nov 25, 2003 06:44
Acro I believe what underdog is asking for is any map that has been created after November 2, 2003. I don't believe it matters whether or not if it's in your map-collection.
Nov 25, 2003 16:33
oh really!? in that case.....
Nov 25, 2003 21:57
Thanks, Nova.

SENT. (too bad i can only send 5) :P
Nov 26, 2003 00:08
:D

Still unable to send. Says 'don't have permission to upload to this server'. Permission information on the site gives me 'Page cannot be displayed'. So you see, Ud, the issue is not 'unable to comprehend instructions', its 'unable to carry out instructions'.

just e-mail it to him.
