It's a homepage (not a thread). For the reason of lacking thread, I'm feedbacking here. First, this isn't an algorithm, since it isn't finite. Second, the score could be divided by the time it's obtained to get a more complete understanding of the player's level. As in, by playing longer, an infinitely huge score can be obtained, which however doesn't mean anything significant. Overall, well done, since isn't related to virtual world as much as thousands of other games, simple, doesn't distract from reality. ~~ Gryllida |
Re: Game Apps Voting Thread [N900 Coding Competition]
I think smoku deserves to win as
psx4m beats all the rest graphics wise. It also stops the nokia n900 from being beaten by phones like the htc desire - gamewise |

Re: Game Apps Voting Thread [N900 Coding Competition]
i understand that kojacker
but simply Out of all the games above, if all were listed in ovistore right now for £15 I'd only think of buying smoku's psx emulator The rest i'd think were overpriced and not worth the cash |
Re: Game Apps Voting Thread [N900 Coding Competition]
how much cash does smoku get ?

Wiki - http://wiki.maemo.org/index.php?titl..._Competition_1 Competition discussion thread -http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=769189 To clear up any confusion, Nokia have offered previously to invite the winners to Dublin Ireland for the MeeGo conference to be held at the new Aviva Stadium - all accomodation and transport paid for. Else a brand new N900 could be substituted instead. A value much higher than any share of the bounty, ofcourse, and forum vote decided the bounty would be kept and shared to reward the runners up. We're confirming this with Nokia at the moment, if it falls through smoku will get a winning share of the bounty instead... if jay92 allows him to :rolleyes:. |
