ehhhwww.. an infofile.
read up young man!
EXTRA EXTRA! SWAP 03 GOT SCREWED OVER! READ HOW AN
D WHAT YOU CAN DO TO STOP THIS!
thatll be .50 sir. s-s-sir? SIR! GET BACK HERE! bl
am
thats right, swaptm made it to 03. but, all was not
well. first off, i dont
think the packets are really reaching the whole scene
. there arent many peoplecomming to participate. d
oes this mean swaptm will die in the future.. . ??
anyways, heres a list of what went wrong this time.. i
*really* got pissed off
this time, and towards the end while waiting to see if
outkast would come backi just said fuck this and
ended it.
** the first 2 segments went WAY over 15
min well, like 20-25.. if it happens
in future swaps, well just stop the swap rig
ht there unless there is a
justified reason for taking longer to get bac
k.
** my puter locked up in the middle of the th
ird segment, causing confusion and utte
r panic. oh well.
** first, tsk left because he had to go do
something. he said hed be back in
10min, but actually came bace in about 15-20.
. that wouldve been the biggest proble
m, except then outkast left while we were waiting
for tsk to get back.
he had to fix something with cris.com or some
thing.. well, that was at about
8:40, and we waited around till about
9:30 until i just got pissed and said
fuck this and stopped the whole ordeal. for this
reason all the ansis are
unfinished, and everyone participating waiste
d an hour. thanks outkast.
- this message is important .. re
ad up -
dont you EVER leave swaptm without first
letting me know in advance and givingme the ansi you
were working on so i can find a replacement. in
every swap so
far someone has left and fucked up the whole thing.
if it happens too many moretimes, ill just sto
p doing the swaps. i hate to make stupid ass th
reats like
that, but its just something i dont have to deal with that
takes up everyones
time and basically ruins that nights swap. argh.
this one was a small one, with only 4
people, as you can see. spread
this packetaround so that we can get more people
. the more the people, the more art there
is, and the better the quality of the art. thanks to
filth and tsk for
participating, and a semi-thanks to outkast
for being there half of the time.
man, why the hell didnt you come back? shit.
RULES AND STUFF FOR ALL SWAPS! RE
AD UP!
- we cant use
swap. it is some lame-o pd hangout or som
ething. so we have
to use swaptm instead. oh boy.
- we had a bit of trouble when defiant an
d widowmaker left during the first and
second swaps, and now with outkast leaving and screwing swap
03 to hell. againi have the SAME solution - it isn
t that hard to follow.. jeez: dont leave
until its done, or at least give me notice so that i
can get someone to take
your place. it isnt a good thing to leave.
bad. very bad!
- the limit of people in
the channel will be from 7-9 each night. so g
et in
there right after i announce the opening of the channel in
ansi + ice. no
latecomers will be accepted.
- everyone in the channel will start an ansi aft
er i go over the rules and
assign s and work on it for 15 minutes.
when their time is up, they send
me the ansi in this format:
-xx.ans being the number o
f the person who
started the answer, xx being the number of the person wh
o just worked on it
i will then redistribute the ansis to the next people, and w
ell start drawing
again for 15 minutes.. things continue like this until every
one has worked on
every ansi once.
