  AMcBain, if you want to start copyright jihad,let me point to target:
  most of ZX and Atari prods contains "ripped" content. Check it out, downvote for one, this will be fun XD

  Pretty weak argument when your best response is equivalent to saying "It's okay because everyone is doing it." That doesn't make it right.

  ain't ripped, my friend, Den Popov, googled .gif,
  picture splitted to 9 frames(GIFframe freeware), theese pictures converted with bmp2scr.

  Let me give you a [re]fresher on licensing: Google brings back all images it has indexed, not just those with a permissive license for sharing. Some might have copyrights. Others that happen to have a permissive license might require attribution. Even if you only took a single frame from a GIF, you're still bound by that. So just because Google can find it, doesn't mean it's free to take. If it's someone else's image, and they didn't give you permission to use it (through licensing, putting it in the public domain, or otherwise), you've ripped it. I think people are quite justified in calling you out on this because you keep doing it.

  rc55 you are already missed demo, so your excuses fucking pathetic.
  I didn't accept your apologies, maybe this case is a good lesson for you as organizer.

  Eesh.

  AMcBain, I asked yesterday after party, the reply was kind of:
  Entry isn't received, nobody cares, this os a shame. what's it.

  Other than the "entry isn't received" bit, which was reiterated in the oneliner, I really doubt that. It seems more likely it was too late for submissions, even if it was a resubmit, or that you sent them a nastygram and at which point they have no reason to be polite either.

  You seem to be the one starting things, so if you're implying we should put up with you just to see more of your demos, it doesn't work that way.

• There could be many reasons for this. Some parties have preselection to keep the compo to a reasonable length or it got lost in the shuffle of setting up at the party place. At any rate, every party I know of doesn't release/spread productions they never showed allowing you to submit it to another one if you're willing to wait.
  
  Sitting here sulking about it and calling the party or organizers names isn't going to fix the situation or even make people think well of you, especially considering you're already well known for your almost continuous sniping at Alone_Coder and others since you joined here at the start of the year. Chill out.
  
  You could have made a polite inquiry to the Sundown organizers after the party then submitted it to the next party with an appropriate compo that allowed remote entries. Considering that past productions from you seem to have placed well in compos I don't think you'd have any problems getting shown. However that ship sailed when you uploaded it to Pouet.
  
  You can program stuff for old, obscure, limited, etc. platforms which many people can't do or don't bother to try doing. Don't waste your skills being a jerk.
  
  Have a nice day.

  The self-voting was a total mistake, I thought I had to add a vote under Pouet 2.0 for the post to go through. If someone can edit the database to take my selfvote out, that would be appreciated, thanks.

  You do, but people seem to prefer you leave the vote setting to piggie ("is ok"). This is the default, but the option to vote even if you have commented as long as you didn't choose to up or downvote the production. Unfortunately if they disabled voting for everyone associated with a production, participants in collective works (music disks) would be unable to upvote all the rest of the hardwork.
  
  Anyway ...
  
  That said, it's a mistake so I don't care. This is pretty cool regardless.
