A little on the slow side but worth it if you ask me.

hah...i've got just the preset for this one 😁 /me will finish it up this week

and yea anubis now that you put it that way i see how it'd work...the reason i wanted it to be a knockout tournament is cos i wouldn't last 'till the last round, and school starts on tuesday (and i'm taking some heavy ass classes). so i might drop out of the tournament anyway...

btw i hate this topic too, it's as lucid as the last one (😛), but i already have a preset that fits it perfectly...does it count? 😉

Wow, me too! Except the only advanced class I'm taking is band 🙄

Anyway, um, "Abstract Love"???? ooookay. I'll have to search deviantart to get an idea on this 😁

I was just going to do it at the end, but since I have them all and I can zip them easily - here you go.

This topic is pretty vague too... couldn't we have topics like 'glowing' or 'pulsing' or something that describes a certain type of preset? Not that I'm complaining... this ones a good opportunity for me to knock up some abstract 3D DM/SSC geometry.

Yay! I got 20 points 🙂. Don't worry Ishan, you're doing a great job. You should be proud of doing it. Though indeed this topic is also kinda vague. Try making topics like they were in Tournament 1. That were topics which really pointed to a certain style. Oh well, at least I think you're doing just fine. Keep it up!

I'm fifth place? 😱 Wow, didn't see that coming....cool😁

[edit]Abstract Love, to me, would be like Jim Manley's "Make Love, Not Presets" preset. Definitely an abstract preset imo.[/edit]

Bugger 🙁 At least this one gives you a slight idea what to do - dreams was really, really vague :/
So can I use that preset or not? Do I have to make a new one specifically for this tournament? Even if it hasn't been released?
Deamon#
You can use whatever you want, as long as it is made by yourself. (at least, that's my opinion).
jheriko#
4th... the guy in 4th doesn't even get a medal 🙁 I've got to do something much better in this next round. 😛

Robotisgod deserved that high score.. I only just now looked at the preset and it is visually sweet and technically competent... the only problems I have with it are the dm glitches that pop up every now and again and the lack of aspect ratio correction... y=y*w/h; at the beginning will fix this.. I can't see what causes the random glitches tho, great effort!

Tied for last place... That sucks a little bit, but I like this new topic because it has some creative applications I'm making up, and I get to make some cube based preset. Only problem I saw with Robotisgod's DM is that there is a lot of excess baggage that could be taken out. A smart n00b, lucky us.
robotisgod#
wow, that's strange. i seem to be winning. i was expecting 3rd or 4th place. don't worry, i'll lose in the end.

postpumping is bad.

Not that many have been submitted yet - is everone just taking a long time?
