NancyGormezano Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 ok - the title says it all - The "Pass the ball" special topic appears to be gone..or I can't see it... Am I having a senior moment? Or...er...worse ?...
MJL Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Forums>Special Topics>Pass The Ball ? Second Topic from the top?
NancyGormezano Posted April 9, 2009 Author Posted April 9, 2009 Maybe it's because I don't have viewing privledges ?
Luuk Steitner Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 It's still here, but the topic is invisible if you're not logged in. If you are logged in and still can't see it there must be a problem with the rights. You could try logging in from another browser, if that helps it might be a cookie problem. (if so that might be solved if you delete your cookies). Or maybe a moderator did something wrong when trying to block that spammer.
Paul Forwood Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 I'm also unable to see the "Pass the Ball" topic.

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted April 9, 2009 Hash Fellow Posted April 9, 2009 I can see it and I haven't even started mine yet.
agep Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 It looks like the forum members that belong to the group "Contributor" isn't able to see the topic?
John Bigboote Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 is this a sly move by an unnamed That's just Rodney's way of keeping out the 'riff-raff'... My brother used to always do this trick to people: Bro- "Mmman! That was one tasty lunch they bought us...!" Victim-" Someone bought you lunch- WHO?" Br0- "Management! They slapped us on the back and gave us a talkin to...were'nt you there?" Victim- "NO! What did they say???" Bro- " Well they told us we were doing a good job and not to tell any of the 'stupid people' that--- (pause) oh, nevermind." I think Stian figured it out...I'm sure it will be fixed right away.
heyvern Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 I feel so left out... I can see the topic fine. -vern
TheSpleen Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 somebody dropped the ball. I couldn't resist.....sorry.
Tunames Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Can we just start new thread for us "contributors"?...
NancyGormezano Posted April 10, 2009 Author Posted April 10, 2009 Can we just start new thread for us "contributors"?... I don't see why not. I sure hope everything is ok with Rodney ???
GizmoMkI Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 I don't see it either. And I thought it was because it was 2 a.m. and my brain wasn't working right. Or one of those two options.
wedgeeguy Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Well? ... I can't find it either. Would someone be SO kind to post again the specifications/guidelines of "Pass the Ball". Do we need to notify someone first if we are going to contribute? I saw the thread earlier but I forgot to copy down the details ... Doh! I contributed the last time we did it and I hope to be able to do it again this time. Any help is appreciated ... Bruce (Wedgeeguy)

The 'Pass the Ball' was not a competition, it was a short movie made by the Hash forum in 2006. The criteria was simple... have a ball, or similar object- enter from frame LEFT, have your character(s) interact with it for a few seconds, and have it exit frame RIGHT. Will Sutton then cut the entries together with some music and came-up with this: PASS THE BALL http://www.hash.com/amfilms/search/entry.php?entry=1080 I have volunteered to collect and compile the clips (Unless someone else really wants to.). We have a musician who has volunteered music... at this point we are having a healthy/positive conversation about the simple rules... those being: THE RULES: -participants will make a unique cartoon/movie with the ball entering screen-left(your left) interacting in the screen (whatever you want) and exiting screen right. -participants can enter as many as they want. -movie parameters: 864W X 486H @ 30 frames-per-second (3 second minimum/9 maximum)... we will place this on Youtube HD. The final copy will also be made available at D1 letterboxed resolution for those wishing to burn a DVD. - A 'ball' will be made available as a common file. However, those wishing to use their OWN model as the 'ball' can do so. -Movie files will be sent via electronic delivery by JUNE 1, 2009. ( to a yet undetermined address)
Luuk Steitner Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 By the way, who is moderating this forum exactly? Maybe someone has contact details of this person so we can ask to make the topic visible to contributors again.

Maybe someone has contact details of this person so we can ask to make the topic visible to contributors again. I thought it was Rodney. But I really don't know. I had sent him an email (via forum) originally remarking about the "spambot" and that perhaps guests shouldn't be allowed to post. It was right after that that the topic got hidden. I had assumed he had done that. And I also assumed he had originally made the topic "special" in the first place, as it had been in the WIP forum. I also tried to contact him a 2nd time at his gmail account after the forum got hidden - but so far no response from him either time. That is why I said I sure hope Rodney is OK
wedgeeguy Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Thanks Luuk! Much appreciated! Now comes the hard part ... creating something.
