A while back, was suggested as :demon: out of jest. The smiley and expression, however, quickly became popular in the SEN shoutbox and it became widely used by the regulars. People petitioned to have it added as an official smiley under :demon:, but DevliN rejected this proposal under the logic that he does not want Dem0nS1ayer/I Iz LEET to have his own smiley, something that I am fine with.

I still believe that the smiley should be considered for addition under a different string, like :derp: or :durr:. I personally prefer the :durr: approach as it allows you to do :hurr: :durr: and get as the output, which is awesome.

Any other opinions on this?



None.

I voted for

Add as :derp: and change :hurr: to :herp:

because I voted quickly, although really, I don't want :hurr: to be changed.

Of course, that being the case, you can also consider this a vote for

Add as :derp:

I would have voted for the :demon: one, but DevliN laid down the law on that idea already :P

:demon: won't work, :hurr: should never be changed, and honestly your smiley is ugly, so I voted for derp, which is an ugly word.



None.

You need to have an "other" option. looks like he's yelling, and the name should reflect that. You should change it so that the eyes are looking in opposite directions like :hurr:. Then :durr: would be appropriate. Otherwise none of these names fit right.



Win by luck, lose by skill.

Actually...I think it would make more sense if :derp: had the derp eyes and a stupid grin instead of the open mouth thing.

Woah

I'm not adding any of those or changing the current ones.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
