    I uploaded the low-res version to the Empires file section myself. I am unable to upload the full version however, as my connection times out around 15mb. I didn't really want to upload in individual segments, so I thought I'd leave it to someone who can do it in one go. If you can, feel free to do so. Just copy the title and put "Full" at the end, and add something similar to the description. I believe anyone who is registered can upload files.

    And about Troy, I think it had some really good concepts (the whole 'spirit' thing was pure genious), but unfortunately they did seem to fizzle out before they were implemented properly. The mapping also seems to be limited to a single level, but it does look like a little more than just a killbox. They have potential, which could get them and upcoming award, but unless they are in active development I would argue as to whether they should qualify for such a category.

    I'm worried about the Iron Grip one. Even if it doesn't have the depth of tactics empires has.... have you seen the amount of publicity on their ModDB artical? AND they're mod of the month at the moment, which means they probably get about twice as many clicks to their page. because there is a perma link on the ModDB homepage :(

    Well, I doubt we'd win any popularity contest simply because the mod is fairly complex. I'm more looking at the editors choice, and just hope they won't pick the obvious ones.

    You'll be the second one, as I already did it. Ofcourse I could have done it wrong...

    If anything besides empires wins, I will cry. Those other mods may have lasers, or a really freakin good art department, but they are missing the fun-as-fuck gameplay that empires has.

    By the way, why isn't the video uploaded to the Theatre yet? Or is it under review or something?

    "Thanks for submitting your trailer. We are currently in the final stages of finalizing our awards player and ironing out all the kinks: http://awards.moddb.com/2006/theater/

    Once that is done it will be put up with a link to vote for your mod. We are expecting millions of viewers so it’ll be a great chance to boost your mods publicity and maybe win one of the 2006 MOTY awards prizes :D"

    And by the way, I beat all of you in uploading the high quality trailer once I saw Broccoli uploaded the low quality one.

    so... the theatre thing isn't finished yet, and when it is, there will be the trailers for dozens of mods on it?

    When aircraft come you should make another one, but with a failed attack/ counter attack theme. In fact we should make a script in the storyline forum

    The internet holds many copies of Windows XP discs on its. Find a copy of the Windows XP disc that is legal for you to obtain under the Fair Use Act (if you live in America), download, burn, and re-install. I'm not actually sure that Fair Use covers downloading something you've already paid for, but I don't think MS would have an easy time suing you. Hell, you could probably counter-sue.

    Oh, yes, most companies have replacement policies on their CDs. You might consider calling them and asking what theirs is, supposing you're a legal customer.

    Looks like they added some videos. Not the empires one though.

    Humbug.

    How does the voteing think actualy work? Is it is based on IP? As once you vote it wont let you do so again. I was thinking about showing the vid to some people here at work.(plenty of games here. I work in tech support) I was just worried it might not let them vote. I probably could ask one of our networking guys but that would not get answered for two weeks. lol Isnt Verison DSL Support so nice?
