⋆⋆⋆Blocklander of the Year 2013 [CONGRATS EKSI, BLOCKLANDER OF THE YEAR!!!!]⋆⋆⋆

[ResonKinetic]

i'm not trying to undermine filipe's achievements

but could you please give some proof that it is harder to make a mod than a video?

Anyone can make a video and publicize it on these forums.

Not everyone can make a mod and publicize it here.

As a matter of fact, why are you nominated anyway?

okay

i don't

where else are you going to publicize your blockland mod?

and why can't anyone make a mod?

i really wanted to be nominated so i went to houses randomly and made them sign petitions and then i gave that to the district attorney and he got the good word in with gov. XR-7

A. You tell me, man. It would appear that not everyone has the time, patience, mental capacity, or desire/motivation to learn how to make mods.

B. okay, gg

how can i tell you something if you're arguing for it

i think my head might actually be in pain right now

likewise, it would appear that not everyone has the time, patience, mental capacity, or desire/motivation to learn how to make videos, either; there are plenty of bad mods and there are plenty of bad videos, and certain people hone their skills and excel at their craft.

[.:FancyPants:.]

Regardless, it's more difficult to make successful mods, which Filipe is great at.

alright you got me there

but

this doesn't seem quite right, both involve creating a thread on the forums to publicize it, the only difference is that one goes in Gallery and another in Creativity.

And yet the amount of people who make videos for Blockland outweigh the amount of people who make mods for Blockland.

It's about the ratio between the two.

More people are willing to make an amusing/entertaining/informative video about Blockland. Why? Because it's easier.

I'm not sure what you mean. Are you referring specifically to publicity? Don't home in on that.

What I meant was anyone can make a video, but not everyone can make a mod.

[Skig]

I wish you luck Filipe

i agree that making a video is easier, but as a guy who has both tried before to make a good video AND tried to code things, i think making a blockland video that actually becomes popular needs an equal amount of research and practice as making a decent mod for blockland.

what the forget are you talking about, making a good video is hard
please go try to make an animated short or another trailer that matches eksi's level of quality then tell everybody that making a video is easy

Well at that point it's merely a matter of opinion, and I can't change that.

Great, I'll get to work on that.

You know why I can get to work on that? Because I don't have to learn how to code when I can simply take footage from Blockland and compile it.

Also, I'd love to see Eksi's level of quality, but I never see any of his stuff, one of the main reasons I started posting here.

And you guys have just been oh so helpful in referring me to his work.

[.:FancyPants:.]

but I never see any of his stuff

he made the trailer for blockland's greenlight, so that's kind of surprising.

That's funny, I look up "blockland greenlight" on youtube, and the first three videos are Filipe's.

So he's a modder AND a filmmaker.

You guys suck at picking Blocklander of the Year.

but filipe isnt the best blocklander?

just cus he makes some really good mods and some good videos doesnt really make him a fan favorite

maybe it isnt based upon contributions, maybe its based on how we like them as people? idk but thats just a thought?

how is it easier! how is it inherently easier! what makes it easier! you've yet to ever specify why.

this isn't a search for the lost ark or some stuff, just go on gallery! you've yet to refer me to any of filipe's works either!
