Scheme #5254, Duo Race for cup submitted by Lupastic

(1/2) > >>

FoxHound:
If you took the scheme Korydex modified from the original Driver scheme to turn it to Time Trial for the challenge and changed to 20 seconds again, being the only modification, I have to inform you that you actually uploaded the exact same scheme as the original Driver scheme by sbs, but changed its name to "Duo Race" because that is a name that you prefer to call it. When someone upload sbs' scheme to the platform it may be considered duplified by this scheme that has a different name and don't credit the original author, instead, people may think that it is your scheme, specially while TUS still doesn't have an authorship field for schemes. To be honest, I never upload any scheme that was not made by myself here, because I don't want to be seen as its author, what happened with me many times. I thought for example that Goku Battle Arena was created by TOMT, because he is the uploader, and I wrote that on the wiki scheme article, until pavlepavle corrected me, because he is the author. And this is something that always made me very sad about TUS: not having authorship for schemes. People may think that the most famous schemes of the platform were made by Warg for example, which probably never created a scheme, or at least released a scheme, and doesn't understand much about scheme making.

This is something very recurrent: I think all of your schemes are modifications to the original schemes. The original schemes are never fine, you always modify things, sometimes great modifications such as the ones of your variant of K2S, but sometimes there's almost no difference from the original or the version looks worse, but you create a new one for a cup. I think sometimes is just nice to credit and recognize the schemes other people thought a lot to create them.

PS.: I know that the original scheme was not ported or updated to 3.8, and is still in the old RubberWorm scheme format. Lupastic's scheme file has Extended Scheme Options settings, but there's nothing that is new - except Worm Selection settings that are exclusive to 3.8 - compared to the original scheme, I believe.

MonkeyIsland:
I will add the author field to TUS schemes but I'd like to point out that the term we use is "submitted by" and it doesn't imply that the submitter is the author of the scheme as well.

Lupastic:
an example replay has been added just in case someone wouldn't understand how Duo Race scheme works out of the description :D it's a difficult scheme, must-have for boom race likers. the scheme is originally called "Driver" then, but our cup will be called Duo Race, for the name making more sense that way

Duo Race is not the best name I'd say, since there are many other schemes that are played with 2 worms. I like the name Driver because the author of the scheme is a professional Driver and there is a worm that is a passenger. I was the passenger worm being driven by the real-life driver, the author of the scheme, and I can confirm he is a good Driver.

This scheme doesn't have Anti Sink, that's very sad. For a variation, it could have included some other weapons maybe, but it is just Driver without Angle Glitch (this is not bad change IMO), but removing Anti Sink is non sense.

I might have misunderstood your comment, but this scheme does have antisink.. if you check it :D it's an obvious feature that a race-like scheme like boom race or battle race should have. or you were talking about Driver? not sure about that, but here, worms do not sink.
I think Duo Race is a perfect name to describe the scheme because 2 worms are working together to get to the finish. they are working as duo ^.- pinpoint way to name a scheme. while "driver" could refer to different topics
