Alright, well as you all know today was the day the collab was submitted!
Some of you were disappointed and others supposedly said it was awesome. I know that those of you who said it was awesome were not too honest. I know the collab didn't live up to it's expectations even with the long wait. That's my fault, I tried my best with this collab yet I didn't really have much experience working on a collab. I've only been part of 2 other collabs and my parts were horrible but back then i was just a beginner. You guys did great and I messed up badly.
I noticed a lot of you were paying attention to the score and so was myself but i notice some very bizarre things. Our collab and a few other flash submissions lost about 20 Points in the Score from just 5 votes. I think something was messed up but it doesn't matter. An award won't change anything unless we really deserve that award which i thought we had a very good chance of winning but obviously I was wrong. Doesn't matter anyways...
Some things you guys could improve on for future collabs would be to name your symbols, tweens, bitmaps, etc. in the Library on Flash. Some of you didn't rename them and left them as their default names and I had to rename them all because Flash won't allow me to have something with the same name in the library. So yeah, if you haven't started naming your things then for the future to help yourself out and future Collab Organizers be sure to label your Items in the Library.
You guys all have talent. Don't put it to waste. All the parts i received were excellent in my opinion. There might be a 3 Second Collab 2 someday but it's a "might".
Some bad news:
The collab thread is going to be locked on the upcoming Sunday for the sole reason that the collab is over and so the thread is pointless. I also do get a lot of PM's asking me if the collab is open. So yeah, it's time to move on. I will be making one last post before the collab is closed on Sunday.
Collab Members, you did awesome! Good Job!
