Title: OTT needs you
Post by: Nico on December 14, 2002, 08:02:31 pm
Well I need 5 or 6 fredders:
you'd be asigned only one or two missions, but they'd have to be very good, so I need people who can really dedicate work on them, and don't delay the work for weeks either. OTT's making has already been too long, and I want it done now, so I need serious fredders, if you can't work seriously on it, don't apply.
For those interested please provide your best mission by any mean you can ( PM me ).

I'd also need someone who could update the website. Someone who is already part of some HLP project and already has FTP access has priority. I can't upload stuffbecause my ADSL connection hangs up as soon as I upload more than 5kb and that's really a pb, so I can't even update the pages by myslef.

Finally, that would be nice if I could find someone to mirror the files ( and be aware that OTT is very big... )because for various reasons I can't use fileplanet, but that's not in a hurry for now.
Thank yuo for your attention.

I'm a bit disapointed. I've only had 3 replies, and that's not enough. If I don't get at least 5 or 6 people to help, there's not even need for me to bother those guys. And the outcoming of this will be simple: I just won't bother anymore and I'll cancel the campaign. I want it to be a great campaign, or not to be at all. So that's the last call. If nobody want to help, I'll hand all the OTT stuff to woomeister and he'll do whatever he wants with it.

edit: actually no, I take this back. I called for help way too much already, and to no end. So I am the one to have to put an end to it, and I officially announce OTT is canceled. The few interest isn't motivating enough for me to go on with it. If the modos agree, I'll see with them to keep my FTP access and turn the former OTT website as a ship database of some sort, so all my work doesn't go to waste and I can keep a somewhat active part to the community. It's been fun, but this time it's over.
I must apologize to my staff and all the people who worked for me to no end.

Instead of cancelling it why not put it on hold until one of the other big projects finishes and you get the chance to harvest some FREDders from that?

Hold your horses here, bud. this is the part I don't understand: 5-6 FREDers to do ~10 missions? Pardon me saying so, but WTF?

I explained already, there's no need to explain anymore anyway. Anyway, believe it or not, but I'm somewhat glad I took this decision, so there's no way you could turn me back now.
What I want to know, now, is if I can keep my ftp access to turn the old site into a ship datapage where people can d/l the ships that will not be handed to another campaign, and for new ships I'll probably do as stand alone projects.

This is about OTT...isn't it :)

He needs some help to create this campaign.  He's got alot of cool MOD's...but he needs some mission help.  Ace and I tried to provide that help...but Ace has turned to other things and I'm stretched far too thin.

OTT deserves to get its 10 missions finished :)

i'm willing to help out in the Fredding area, Venom has my sample mission.

Post by: Silver_Scythe on December 21, 2002, 10:29:42 pm
Hmmm he is not going to have many fredders if he doesn't respond to his own topic. :D
Title: OTT needs you
Post by: Solatar on December 21, 2002, 10:32:26 pm
I didn't think he was going to have ANY FREDers, considering he canceled the campaign.:) :(

You guys stop trying.. it's over and if you read this over, you'd see he isn't in the "Oh I'll change my mind" mood.

OTT is dead, aldo's gone, sectorgame is dead, the VBB is gone, all our vets are leaving........

Sorry, but the cancelation of one of my favorite campaigns is putting me in a gothic mood.

Reci isn't dead, as far as I know. Aldo said that he was having a month or two without any computer stuff at all. He'll either comeback stronger than ever or he'll announce the cancellation of Reci and leave forever. But until then, Reci is still in the works :nod:

And Analazon, if work on the TVWP continues at the speed it's been going, we're planning on a release of the UW before easter.

[:thepimp:] And with my new FRED2 subcategorization stuff just added, FREDding will be five times as fast now (because you won't need to spend loads of time searching for the sexp you want) [/:thepimp:]

EDIT: Okay, maybe not five times as fast overall.  But sexping will definitely be much faster. :)

:lol: Talk to Inquisitor.  At Sesquipedalian's request, I'm going to try to get a few extra sexps in before it gets released, but that shouldn't hold it up much.  It'll probably be out on Christmas.
