Well Saint.... I’m still here! I’m surprised it let me log back in, I know your all busy updating the site and you haven’t gotten around to removing me.
That's because nobody gives a fuck about you and your whining.

Now those of us who have had the free time to play around in the demo and know about the trick
Again with the trick! You've been told several times that nobody cared about combat arts. The contest was about looks, you know, the idea was to look good and maybe have a cool item to show. Is it that hard to comprehend? You're not an idiot by any chance, are you?

And it’s really sad that you attack me for having an opinion about how you don’t follow your own rules.
Saint, when we have another contest can we have a rule "Absolutely no stupid people allowed. If we suspect at any point that you're stupid, you will be disqualified"?

I will say this, I never thought I would win...
Then what are you bitching about it?

...because I used the Glitch...
So you admit the you cheated?

...but to see others win who used it too isn’t fair...
And now you think that everyone else cheated too

...its bad form for the Site.
Let us decide what's good for the site

I don’t have the time to make a fool out of you.
You don't have the skills either :wink:

Probably because I could care less either way if you're here or not for much the same reason why I don't swat small, flying insects that land on my arm. Even the ones that think they have a mighty bite don't get swatted, because they typically don't.

Also saying CA, that?s pretty clever, I would never think typing Combat Art would be so hard.

People abbreviate commonly used things. Accept it.

Now we all know it has occurred because getting those items are impossible because I researched that hammer it cost over 100k gold to buy, before I stumbled onto that exploit I played the demo legit, I killed all the monsters and all the animals, I sold every item I got and barley managed to get 100k gold, that?s with NOTHING else, I have no problem with using the exploit, or others who used it two, But the winners should have been legit players, I agree with Playa69er who said it in 2 posts

Two things about both you and player69er:


You two might want to bitch about the results, but you two made it far, far easier to tell something was up than others did when we were reviewing the entries.

And it?s really sad that you attack me for having an opinion about how you don?t follow your own rules.

So you admit that your stance that one guy cheated is just an opinion? Not a fact? Neat. Progress.

And if you?re going to continue to attack me I?m going to take the time to quote every typo on your site.

Go for it. Be sure to think about what I said about the small, flying insect that thinks it has a mighty bite while you're doing that.

I will say this, I never thought I would win because I used the Glitch, but to see others win who used it too isn?t fair, its bad form for the Site.

Refer to the two points thing.

Oh and the wielding something that requires more strength than you have, that's a common bug in a lot of games apparently. All you have to do is put on your strength gear, put on the weapon that requires all that strength, then take off the strength gear and put on your normal stuff. The sword doesn't fall off, and the bonuses stay. Though, that doesn't mean it isn't their fault. An exploit is an exploit.

Right, but that sword he's wielding requires a strength of 79 which is 26 more strength than the level 7 gladiator will have if he dumps all his points in to strength.

would u like my save file i will glading send it to u because before u talk about me possibly cheating know the game first before u talk

all u have to do is get enough strength ex. a 4 socket shield and put all strength rings in them ... then equip the item then take of the shield BECAUSE IT DIDNT LOOK SO NICE ... as u guys say the contest was about ... after the fact in ur original statement about being looks AS WELL AS statistics yet u guys keep saying how dumb people are cause it was about the looks thats bullshit .. i dont care ne more about cursing usually ill just * it but forget it

second i dont sit there making sure my typing is up to par for the person i said i have alot of typos ... wow so u actually sat there and made out all of my mistakes ... just sit and think about that 1

lastly i know im gonna get banned probably for saying this but i can careless, whoever is part of the judging and who is responsing to all of our small complaints, u have no balls what so ever if i were u and im pretty sure its Saint_Proverbius, say i picked this people because so and so, no bullshit sorry that u guys didnt get picked thats that , but no u sit here and argue while we argue back, arguing is just gonna make u look stupid considering u picked the wrong people, either u have favorites or some shit on the boards and u picked them

alil advice next time u have a contest let the people decide, let them vote instead of u guys judging ... cause u say one thing then after its all said and done its another ... items statistics as well as looks to me that sounds like 50 50 ... yet after the contest sounds like statistics mesnt nothing, and even if u were judging it on looks steven d still wins

again u want my save file its exactly the way i left it

So, you have a shield with four strength rings socketted in it. You also have two amulets and seven other rings showing on the inventory screen, a unique sword, two nice bits of armor, and so on. You also have 39k gold along with all those rings and things. I'm guessing your good buddy Vectra would say you're a cheater just because you had all that money in the demo since he said that the winner cheated because his hammer looked expensive. Then again, I've seen things drop that's better than that hammer of Billy B's, which has shit damage but boosts a few CAs by +2, but I sure as hell have never seen 11 rings drop, a unique sword, and so on, all in one game which allowed me to keep 39k worth of scratch in my pocket.

Now run along, I'm sure your Counter Strike clan has a match or something.

Re: LaDa

Wow Dark, I can quote 3 words from what you say and twist it around but it really only shows how retarted you are. Anyways I noticed none of the admins made any comments about my cheating comment, my purpose of posting on this thread was to let them know that they should have taken a saved game and looked for themsleves, Either they have no time or they have half-assed contests to get cheap hits on there site. and the guy with 8k rev. id buy a wep that has 50 max dmg and see if you still do 8k dmg. since ur rev. dmg is mutiplied by your base damage. Also I wouldent claim I though he cheated if I hadent looked into rev. dmg.

Wow Dark, I can sit here and quote little things you say and twist it around, but you doing it really only shows how retarted you are. Do you feel specail trying to splice quotes together to make yourself feel better? Anyways I noticed none of the admins made any comments about my cheating comment, my purpose of posting on this thread was to let them know that they should have taken a saved game and looked for themsleves, Either they have no time or they have half-assed contests to get cheap hits on there site. I guess I should have sent an email so my conversation would not be monitered by every little kid who needs to comment on what I say. To the guy with 8k rev. id buy a wep that has 50 max damage and see if you still do 8k damage. since ur rev. damage is figured by your base damage. Im sure you're using a much higher wep.

Please don't e-mail us. We'll publish everything you say on this thread. I've got enough bullshit to slog through my mailbox every day without having to deal with this.

this post is just for u Saint_u kProverbius to show u know NOTHING about this game

how i got the money how i got the weapons how i got all my shit ....

real ez and ne1 who played the actual demo would know ... its called magical hiding spots ... if u didnt know they regenerate, o shit did i tell u something u didnt know because u keep hinting at me cheating

lemme go through my runs ... starting from the minotar cave all the way up to the top right of the demo get all the magical hiding spots ... then save and load ... run back to the minotar cave and on the way their some of the magical hiding spots reappeared so pick them up now that ur at the minotaur cave save and load and here we go again ... thats how u get money ... o but wait i cheated ... because respawning magical hiding spots are cheating ...

once again u arguing with people who actually played the demo dont make u look too good

maybe i am coming off as an asshole but u keep adding to the fire ... everytime i posted i said thanx for the contest and all that bullshit and i still say that cause i still think thats a pretty nice thing to do just next time u do just find a way to judge right thats all

o yea high strength rings dont cost alot if its just normal str 5-7 around 3000 tops ... just on a side note so u wont need alot of money plus the shield is about 10000 i think for the 4 sockets

Actually, my claws had max damage of something like 30-40. lvl 4 rev and it says clearly, 8k-9k damage. You need a screenshot? My saved game? Need me to start a brand new game and make a video of it? Or how about you just go away instead. kthxbye

Rev. Dmg? OH MY GOODNESS!! You're abbreviating words!! To paraphrase an imbecile I read once "that’s pretty clever, I would never think typing the whole words out would be so hard. "

Wow

H0ly Sh1t D@rK y0u h@ve n0 l1fE!!!!!!! in the time you spent fixing all those errors I put in. You could have... maybe gotten a life? wow I love doing things to make me laugh I really hoped someone was as bored as you. Now im going to write a little, lets see If you can find the errors. There 1's was a retard named dark sumtin, he got off 2 his mother getting laid by his best freind, he downloads free gay porn because he isnt old enough for a credit card to buy it. His dad is an alcohlic and his ping is so bad on his 28k p1 system he cant pay the game so he follows threads and gets in conversations that have nothin 2 do with his sorry ass, My origanl post was 2 the admins not you get a life and try and finish off your mom since your frind cant do it --- Now there are at least 50 errors there, but we all know the only thing that matters is it is all true, now run along little boy, run along

Not to mention the contest he admits to have cheated on.

Oh, my bad. You certainly must have done that a large number of times considering most of the time, those spots drop gold coins, which are based on your level and at level 7 should be around 50-60 gold coins. Of course, they also often drop things like Leather Helmet of Thieves, which is typically worth around 1k gold, but often it's things like throwing axes which aren't worth much at all. Maybe 500 gold if you get a decent one, normal ones are 200. Maybe an iron dagger worth 500. Oh, and let's not forget the 200-500 gold potions they often drop. It must have taken a good, long time to just run that route and check those five or so hiding spots along that border. You must make about 3k per run on average?

Now rings, those things are a little pricey. They can run 1500 to 5000 depending on how good they are in the demo. At least, the ones you can use around level 7 are that much. You had four of them in your shield, and to get the bonus of +26 Strength, I figure you needed two +6 and two +7 rings minimum to accomplish that. What would that be? About 3k per those rings if they just had the strength bonus? After all, if you're just looking for the minimum strength bonuses, you're going to have to take any baggage abilities that come with those rings which push that price up even more. Man, that'd be a lot of hidden runs.

So, you have four rings with those strength things, and let's just say the average cost of each of those four is 3500. That's three runs just to afford those rings on the average pay yield per run. Just to afford those strength rings and only those rings. To net the 39k you have in your pockets, that's thirteen runs assuming you had 1k from something else. If you bought that sword, it must have been around 80k or so judging by the sell value, and that'd be twenty-seven of those runs. So, what are we up to here? You ran the diagonal of the demo forty three times? Does that sound right?

Well, first of all, it's pretty damned hard to find those in shops. So, if you were saving the game, then quitting and loading until it gave you two of each of those, I bet that took hours. In all that time, you couldn't score yourself any better leg armor than those generic leg plates that are a dime a dozen? Or anything better looking than those generic arm plates? Even a decent looking armor or shield? After all, you're not going to be using your super socketted shield because it doesn't look cool or something like that, even though the one you have in your inventory is far more interesting than the generic cross kite shield you're wielding in that screenshot.. I assume that's the super socketted shield in your inventory? Oh, and you didn't think a shield that would give a +26 to strength, and anything else it did since a lot of rings carry many goodies on them, would be more impressive than a unique sword that only does 146-154 damage and improves your attack speed a little and your to-hit a little?

Oh, and while we're on the subject, with all that running and such you're willing to do for all that time, you're not willing to move to a nice location as the backdrop for your character? Nope, you're standing out in the middle of some grass - at night, no less. Can we say boring? Seems like an awful lot of time spent just to make a really dull screenshot like you did.
