I think that in itself is worth some credit, but after relooking over some other BKZ entries and at cja's
I have to agree that yes cja's entry it good for a bkz entry, but I still think logicow deserves major props for his entry.
Exo: also the blank charset can be generated using a board within the mzx file...

<Malwyn> Yes, yes. Don't worry I'd rather masturbate with broken glass than ask you for help again. :(

It wasn't even close to the best pixel based game in MZX, and even if it were it wouldn't mean much of anything, especially since a lot of MZXers can do something like this. It takes skill but not a lot of time or work, the real things that are needed to make a game.
Using the MZX world to generate the file is pretty much as bad when it's not made obvious and doesn't do it automatically when it COULD. Who is going to notice that? They'll just start playing the game and notice it's all screwed up looking. You'd think LogiCow would have learned his lesson about this by now.

And sorry if I failed to include blank.chr or give instructions about it.
And we could debate if premade stuff is acceptable in BKZXes but in another thread.
Edit: Here I'll make one.

Maybe, but you didn't ask permission to before.
Although if you did ask permission the answer would have been 'NO' anyway. You don't need to do pixel perfect shit, but if you do, you shouldn't gain advantages by using premade stuff.
Not that it would be hard to do the entire thing within the time limit. There's really not much there.
<Malwyn> Yes, yes. Don't worry I'd rather masturbate with broken glass than ask you for help again. :(

Moral: Don't cheat on BKZXes. If you want to make a better entry but need to use external material, just make a real (non-BKZX) game.

Also heh my game was supposed to have music but there was a continuous loop with 'mod "sumthin"' in it so the sound was muted...that's what happens when you make a MZX game in a sixty minute timeframe.
Also, Exophase, what was (most) annoying about it?

IMO, if Logicow cheated, he shouldn't have won. He should have been DQ'd.
That's just my opinion.
Also this:

Good point.
I donno if there are rules against premade code in these compotitions and if there isn't I think it would be a nessisary precaution, a rule should be added.
"NO PREMADE CODE OF ANY KIND this means in the mzx file, in robotic code files in text documents encoded in runic or anything! NONE! NO CODE! NADA!"
And it should be worded that way too!

I've seen every DoZ game that Logi's done (provided he didn't do anything before the tomato one) and none of them looked to be unachievable in the time limit of a DoZ. You can often see quite clearly the drawbacks of his rushed approach.
I still think his Metroid parody game was the best of the lot though.
<Malwyn> Yes, yes. Don't worry I'd rather masturbate with broken glass than ask you for help again. :(

Posted 02 September 2005 - 02:44 PM
Horrible
Anyway, of what I understood
I don't think we should take this single event and use it as future tense precident of logicow's supposed actions of previous competitions... I don't think it would be right since we have no proof.

yeah, it would be unfair to assume that he did this in previous entries.

Yeah so to bring up that he may have done it then given that he just did, is a fallacy, and we shouldn't use it to create a false precident from which we can be more angry at him for what he has currently done..
And besides, it's obvious to me that he didn't think what he was doing was breaking rules at the time, otherwise he probably wouldn't have owned up to it as quickly as he did...
