Well, here's my second BR, hope that the background fits your approval ;)

Comments welcome, please rate on a scale from 1-10.

I think you'll like this one, I did a little more with the pictures...and the background is better ;)

i didn't really read over it but i skimmed it over and caught the important points. From the looks of it the pics are good and the writing is okay, so id give it a 7, or an 8 maybe for effort.

Why do I always get "Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /sites/battlereports/www/lib/general.inc on line 478" when I post my BRs??

Khas, I just read both reports, and they are both good. A few things i'll point out.

<i>"I'll warn you now, both games are on Lost Temple, so if you hate Lost Temple, you can stop reading now. Don't blame me, I didn't choose the map."</i>

You did br the games though.
---

Your background is a lot better in this one. When I do webpages and such, I usually follow the role of light on dark or dark on light.

Your detail in writing is really good. Your pics need some work...
I know that you use MSPaint, and I suggest trying to get a copy of PSP or going to download.com and searching for image editors. MSPaint pictures look a bit dull and boring, which with other programs you can do a lot more with your pictures. If you are going to aim for an 8-9 in the future, then I strongly recommend getting a better editor for pics.

For the end scores, I would recommend either making the images smaller, cropping them a bit more, or just getting rid of them. You could do a basic table or something, and it would take up less space and get the information across easier.

Other then that, I can't think of much else right now. You've shown improvement and therefore should get either a 7 or 8.

Well yee haw kiddies, tis me, tis me, tis that S-I-D. Sid6.9 that is, with a look into this battle report by Khas using The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly…

The Good-

Writing very well done with some humorous moments. :-)

Picture quality was nice. Good picture selection. Plenty of good action shots, and that one with the zerglings chasing the probe with the commentary was funny.

Alt-Text was a lot better and I LOL at a few of them.

MVP feature is cool, gotta love those Reavers named Robby.

HTML was very nice, gotta love that black background, just adds so much to the report, IMHO.

The Bad-

The cartoon bubbles you put in the screenshots were a little generic, but hey, I bet this is the first time you did this, so it will get better no doubt over time.

Maybe a little more of an intro, it was kinda short.

Game 2 was a little boring, but you did make it quick. I guess you needed LN to get even, and that was a good selection.

Maybe a little more detail into the game and the strategies used by both players. But I really could see what they were doing with what you wrote, but a little more would add to the report.

The Ugly-

I wasn’t wearing any pants when I read this report.

Report card reads-
Writing- B
Pic Quality- A- (They were a little bright, but that’s not bad at all.)
Pic Selection- B+
HTML Usage- A
Entertainment- B+
Overall- B+

Personal Comments- Very good report. I enjoyed it from beginning to end. A good selection for game 1, and game 2 served its purpose in LN getting even. You definently are going to be a great battle reporter here, keep up the great work. Look into making your pictures into collages, like ::Nobody:: does and all you will be really missing is some Flash (Ask around in the forum about it, I'm sure someone will help you with it). Probably look for a rating of 8 from the raters.

oh-newphilly2a-291.wre.adelphia.net
Ok first of, Fox......DIE

This report aint a 7. It was good, but not worth more than a 6. Ive seen far better ones end up getting less. You reporters need to get a better rating system.

Anyway, This wasn't too bad of a report. A few tips though, next time do a report on intresting games. Both were totally 1 sided and rather ridiculous. Also, try to do a report on 3 battles or only 1. Having only 2 battles would work if they both went to one guy, but having them make the score 1-1 and having no 3rd game for a tie breaker just pisses people off.

Other than that, just a couple more witty comments and heavy graphic pictures should get you to atleast a 9 rating.

Good report. I was able to follow the action easily with the relevant screenshots and the text.

However, nothing original here, the games were short, and the pics were grainy... I'll have to agree with Foxy here and give you a 7.

Cheerio,
Dref

ool-18bc02ed.dyn.optonline.net
LOL, Dref, thanks, I was gonna e-mail the administrator of this site to possibly have Eradicate~Me banned, because he's posting so much shit. I personally LOVE Sid's Good, Bad, and Ugly, because he seems to have a good grasp on what makes the report good. Dref, when you said nothing was original, do you mean, in comparison to other BRs or my first BR?

And the funny thing is, Erad was giving me shit talk in ~NoHunters last night, and he swore he would never read this BR again, but I will bet that "hi" is Erad. What a loser...
#25 [74319]
208.196.35.239
hehe, no prob...

comments on originality are referring to reports in general. But don't feel bad, after a year and a half, its tough to come up with new and exciting ways to report 1on1's on Lost Temple... :)

Cheers,
Dref

thanks dref, considering none of those comments were directed towards you, oh and btw trace down comment # 20 with whatever you guys have here on this site, and you'll find out it's not me, just a guy with the right idea about a "Report Card" used for a Battlerport, not to mention sid isn't even a rater. Oh and last, Sorry, yes sorry, dref did refresh my mind quite well, I guess I can't beat out a god in a flaming contest. phooey

burn in hell mac :P
Khas, u missed all the pre-game chit-chat for game 2.
I didn't want to play again, I think me and Lucky had already had a game today before that, I only ended up playing cuz no one else did.
Anyway, those were fairly ggs, I lost the second one just 'cuz I didn't want to do the same thing twice in a row and I really only have 1 decent zerg strat :(
Gotta work on that I guess.
#40 Oddity[74407]
h24-70-111-110.ss.shawcable.net
One other thing Khas
I think your brs would be better if you caught a lot more of the in-game chatter. I remember we talked a lot while we're playing and it kinda catches the mood of the game.
#41 (TYC)Khas'andro[74481]

Bah...too lazy...must work on that, I finally figured out that PSP stands stands for Paint Shop Pro, and I downloaded it, and plan to use it for my next BR...IAMDUMB!!

Hmmm, if you're gonna give me 3 of the same number, could it be 6's? 666 would be a cool score...

I have no life...
