since me and some of my friends got really pissed of yugoslav coders, i finally decided to type in a few straight words about them, hoping to force them change a bit. so... to say coder, it should mean to produce, actually, to CODE, but this sick country produced special subgroup of coders who aren't just lazy, like most coders are, but also totally unmotivated. that leads us to conclusion that our coders are not 100% guilty for not being productive. but the guilt still remains their. here are some of usual situations in which our coders get into and how they act. situation 1 (bullshit artist): coder sees some new routines from brand new demos from the top of the charts. he repeatedly give comments like 'bah, this is easy' or 'i've already done this but its gone with my HD crach... only my grandma saw it...'. who cares? the first and the best gets it all! if you wanna get famous, code best and be first. what else to say... i'm tired of listening that kind of bullshit! act now and show your power if you have it. keeping your knowledge for yourself won't help it grow! situation 2 (lazy to the bone): graphician, musician or organizer of group decide that it's about time for some kind of release, let's say, just a stupid intro. coder agrees and gets to business. two days later, designer dials coder, asking him how the project is developing and gets answer like 'i've just started, it will be finished in 4 days'. 4 days later mystic coder answers to the same question something like this: 'oh, i've got this brand new game, i've reached seventh level, it has many... intro?... oh yeah... well... erm... u see, this game really is something... ok, ok, i'll do it soon...' and finally, intro is finished, after two months of coders work and three years shorter lifetime of designer. why losing precious time this way? i am not against games or any other way of fun, but what's the point in spending two months of groups active lifetime for releasing just some minor production? i'm sure you get my point in this matter. coders have plenty of reasons not to have motivation, but if we stay forever just looking world productions passing by, we'll never become part of it. the scene grow creates motivation for work. when we understand that we will finally move on! you, coders, are the most important in the whole scene biz, so, wake up and help all of us to make our dreams come true! the charts ~~~~~~~~~~ here are voting statistics for 1.02.1995 taken from liquid sky's voting booth: tHA bEST yU cODER TOTAL VOTES FOR THIS QUESTION = 13 [A] gAJTAN/pAS mATERS VOTES: 1, 8% [B] gRUNF/eXTENS VOTES: 0, 0% [C] hARALAMPIE/uS!
