If anything at all in this report is screwed up, tell me and I will think about fixing it. If your lucky.

Whew, run this baby through a spellchecker. I've never thought a report could demand it, but this defeinitely does.

There was also no reason to externally link this report. Some cell padding would have helped with the layout too, the text is too far to the left.

That being said, there is good stuff in this report. I was tempted to give it a six because of the aforementioned problems, plus the short game, but somehow I found the writing funny. Not in a laugh out loud way, but in a smily sorta way. You made me smile.

Now run it through a spellchecker

Well. There were some spelling errors, and the game was pretty short. And you fawned over boxer a bit much. And I like pictures. I was thinking about giving it a 5 (it seemed to define 'average'), but then I realized I had understood just about everything happening in the game and your description of the action was pretty good. So I gave it a 6.

Errrr tonnes of mistakes, we've all seen you do much better than this :D

Game had its moment (proxy-fact for win, woo), but that's about it. Otherwise it felt like it was being drawn out a wee bit too much for my taste. And like Lucky said, padding=win.

I was tempted to give it a six, and sadly I did :/ I know you've been making really good gold reports, but this doesn't even come close to those.

As I thought, uploaded wrong one, oh well. Padding was lost in the transfer between computers (human transfer that is, I wrote it on two different comps). All in all, I broke the streak, and probably won't report any more for a while at least. I fucked up royally in every way and apologize for all of it. In closing, I fucking suck. Next one will be a true maareek report though rest assured.

K, got the right one uploaded now, padding included. Readable now.

asdf ^_^

Anyway, didn't dig the blue border on the thing...going CSS on a text only seems kinda excessive...then again I made an effing bg image on one of mine.

Um...does anyone else find it horribly ironic that Prae said he liked pics? :o



#13 maareek[150902]
mblt-ac023.gtcom.net
you wouldn't find it horribly ironic if you read the comments on YRM reports :p and one of the AQD3 reports where he said he didn't like text onlies :p.

about the CSS, seemed like a good idea at the time...

After your intro paragraph I was lost... but that may be so because I'm a fucking retard. Anyway, keep on writing and maybe your name will end up on the front page and in an interview. :)

7 for being all text, which I will probably never do in my life.

#15 badme[150905]

As of now, I'd say 7. 8 if you had pics and the game was a bit longer.

Okay. Read it. I didn't see any glaring spelling errors....so apparently the new version is fine. The game seemed alright(not fantastic) but I didn't get lost. Pictures would have been nice though :) I don't know what I would rate it...6 seems too low, 7 seems too high....
#18 .Praetor[150909]
c-67-164-215-17.client.comcast.net
Yes, me = hypocrite. Deal with it. Don't be too sad maareek. Basically I see a 6 and up as worth my time. It's not like you got a BAD rating.

Oooh. More hyopcrisy: I disliked most of the fan fics that showed up on this site after PL:C, and refused to rate them (or rated them badly). Nowadays I've decided I never earned a 10...

But on to my actual comment. I just skimmed the new version maareek, and you got a big laugh out of me. I can't believe you went to all the trouble to color Boxer and Legionnaire's names with no pictures :).

It's not like you were distinguishing between [i'Ma]LoSer and [I'mA]lOzEr.

I call it a 7-8, myself, for maareek darng to do a text-only, and then doing it with CSS. That's what I call a sense of style. Anyway..

The game itself was good (proxy-fact = super annoying, I speak as a toss player), but the writing was a little lacking. So 6-7 that way.

Call it a 7.

#23 BlueRibbon[150927]

Solid 6-Low 7. Not on par with your more recent attempts.

Isn't it hari-kari? What the heck is sepuku? ;-P Honestly, I'm a little disappointed in this report... But still, a Boxer report is a Boxer report... He used a strange strat, and yet it worked. Kewl! >_< (I would die if I tried anything like that).

7. I didn't really notice any spelling errors, but thats like how I read and stuff now. Summer does that to ya.

Not a bad report. Not sure about the rating. Probably what it is now. Still a nice read.

Oh and a quote:

Pretty short game, but well told. The alt-text sucked of course.

Your sentences. Are too short. You might want. To try to lengthen them. Because if you don't. Then it won't be. Interest. ing.

Keep going. though. You are better than a lot of these. Jokers.

Ah well maareek already made a few really good br's so we will forgive him... hmmm on second thoughts...

j/k :)
Btw Necro sepuku is an ancient samurai tradition (anyone seen the movie Ronin??) where a samurai will take his own life in battle rather than be killed... basically what a dh does in wc3 when he dies.

I'm just kind of mad at myself for doing this so fast, coulda done better if I took more time...but then the only reason I did it was because I was about to die from lack of reporting. I'm not too terribly big on text onlies either, but I didn't have a choice.

.Praetor, coloring names is not "effort" to me. It's a part of my typing that I would have to concentrate very hard not to do.

Yes, OTU I did get the replay from you.

Dibb, :p...I blame the suckage of the alt-text on you. For no real reason.

And, the reason I linked the report is because it didn't work right on the site. When I previewed with fileread my body replaced Johnny's, and my text changed colors.

Rest assured everybody, I'm working on my best report yet right now. 31 comments on a bad report...hell yes!

Oh, forgot to mention. Much <3 for Chris, he's able to find faults in all of my reports and I respect and appreciate that. (I'm not being sarcastic if that's what you're thinking, I really like people telling me what's wrong no matter how nit-picky or big it may be <3).
