Here's your chance to shine! The question will be answered!
"What will TowelMan look like?!"
Submit your PIC's and the person who's tilemap gets over 200 points will be another contributer in the actual game! We're talking about your name in the credits!
@All Submitters: Greyscale sprites get a bonus of +30 points. YOU MUST SAY IT IS GREYSCALE!! Also, the validity of such statement will be tested. If the statement is false, the submitter is disqualified!!
Originality: __/50
Neatness (no stray pixels): __/10
Elaboration: __/40
Fluidity: __/80
Sprite Number (at least 12): __/20
Black Infinities (given by me): ??/??
--------------------------------------------------
Total: ___/200
Good luck!!

I think it's mean that grayscale gets more points. If someone can make a good black and white tilemap, i consider it actually better than greyscale, because it boosts the performance of the game (and allows for smooth scrolling f.e.). 20 points is a lot!

fine, ill stop with the towelie jokes...(although this is ONLY the second). no, i dont actually have a sprite to post...mostly cuz i suck at pixel art (along with all other forms). actually, i might attempt this. one thing i dont understand. is he just a guy with a towel, or should he be more towel related (like, say Towelie?)

Actually he says he is going to test the validity of the statement. He made no statement so therefore he is not wrong which means he is +0.
I think....

Well, my previous statement was just a jokingly made pun.
...but just for face value... (notice what's capitalized)

not that it really matters or anything, prophets still hasn't answered my question about a contest having a prize.

But you replied -30 which should not be because you get 30 extra points for greyscale, not a deduction if you don't have it.

I think what he's trying to say is that you must specify that it is grayscale in order to receive the extra points.
Because he didn't specify that it is grayscale, he lost the ability to gain these extra points... however, all he has to do is edit his post.
I think Homestar was just trying to jokingly remind him of this fact...
was it that big of a deal anyway?
