Re: Scratch Mod Olympics

Ok, heres the deal:
I have to resign my post as one of the judges. Now that school has started, I'm not able to spend much time on the computer, because of homework, social life, ect. I am very sorry for any inconvienince.

Re: Scratch Mod Olympics

I think that you can't judge by fixed-point features. What if, say, someone added a whole new part of the Scratch application (like I will be doing in one day)? That shouldn't get two points!

Re: Scratch Mod Olympics

Hmmm.....
Maybe there could be an extra points part where each judge give you up to 5 extra medal points. Any other suggestions? If a judge approves, I'll add that.

Re: Scratch Mod Olympics

I think you could have 'large feature judging' where the judge decides a point value after given a suggested value by the creator.

I can't show you at the moment (not my computer!  tongue ), but this is what I did to make judging easier and more efficient: in the image file in a workspace (will be a selection in the help menu) is a "scoring" layout, like this:

pts.  feature            description

========== Category ==========

--- SubCategory ---
2      Example           This is an example description
1      Foo                 Bar
--- 3 Total ---

--- SubCategory ---
4      Example           FooBarBaz
1      Baz                  BarFoo
--- 5 Total ---

========== 8 Total ==========

__________________________________

Grand Total: 8

This way, the judge has a convenient way of looking at individual features, feature groups, and totals.

(I'll even make it a treeview if I have time!  big_smile )

Re: Scratch Mod Olympics

i agree to whatever nXIII said. but not totally. see:

i say that it's true that we can't judge a mod just under certain aspects. let me give you an exmaple. Pick two imaginary mods, A and B.
A has mesh blocks and mesh enabled through the menu.
B desn't have mesh blocks, nor does it have mesh enabled automatically, but has a brand new way of projects communicating and has added list sharing through mesh too, as well as automatic attribute sharing, and can have up to 10 pcs connected together with different variable values.

with the judging method majormax put up, A would get more medal points than B, who worked way harder on it though.

so i propose to judge features with a scale, yes, but be flexible. don't judge them on features, but on a few key points:
- ease of use
- interface
- reliability
- speed
- blocks

and maybe have the creators put up their mod's features so no one misses them.
by the way, nXIII, why d'you change your icon? it was pretty good...

what do you think, collegues?

It was too big, and this one is easier to find on a page  tongue  I will add more icons and links, it's just that I made that one with pixlr's editor on vacation, and didn't have enough time to do them all....
