Flashcards and loaders are bad? Does it cause the homebrew scene go RIP?

Follow the link if you want one more episode of how Wraggster/DCemu tries to manipulate and discredit!

This is sort of amusing… someone who is sitting in a house made of glas, should not throw with stones.

Note quite sure in which context wraggster wrote an “hombrew judging” article out of the box, but it’s quite interesting and reflects some specific problems, if you have to handle competitions.

In most parts of the world you would say “One man, one word”.

Unfortunatly this does not apply to Wraggster of DCemu, a page which is well known, so it does not need more hotlinking…

Let me quote something Wraggster wrote on GBAtemp ( http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=104191 ):

Quote from Wraggster:

Congrats Costello on a great comp, any comp for the Homebrew community is always a great event and getting backing of multi national sites is great too, i speak for the rest of the staff at DCEmu and say we support 100% these comps (i dont do comps, too much bloody hassle 😉

I and many other homebrew fans out there wonder, why Wraggster still did not mention Brakken’s ongoing Wii Coding Competition (located here: http://www.tehskeen.com/contests/tswcc/contest.php?page=about ) on DCemu”s main page.

Is it just because he points out true things in the public, about Wraggster and DCemu, such as I did in the past?

Dear visitors,

once in a while even a Kojote deserves vacation. I am heading off to Asia for a few weeks and definitely try to keep my online time as low as possible (56k dial-up ain’t fun anyway if you are used to 4mbit minimum).

KEDO ( http://www.planetkedo.de ) will take over the news. I am not quite sure how much and how regular he will post so let’s hope for the best. In the last few days he showed great support, I consider this a good sign 😉

Heading off for the airport in less than 30 hours, many things to arrange, many things to fix – usual headache.

Have a nice day all!
-Kojote
