Default ITT Inc admits an error.

In short: Doctor Pressure, jesterline's entry to OSC ~Beta of New Generation~ was not uploaded normally, because during the hours of the deadline, Bemanistyle was down. I chose to set it to Rapidshare, and the Judges all received it.

Two conflicting circumstances ensued:
1) I never remembered to download it - by the time I grabbed the files, I'd forgotten about it, thus why you don't see it.
2) jesterline's readme didn't include an e-mail, which is a rules requirement that several other entries forgot.

While technically the latter circumstance DQs his entry and, by the rules set since OSC 3 (the crap filter policy as it's often called), means I'm not technically required to distribute it, he deserves distribution on the entry, and so (as happened for other DQ'ed entries which were distributed and encouraged to be scored since they weren't crap), I'm providing it for download here:

Anyone who wishes to take the time to review this one alongside the others is heartily encouraged to do so, as part of the reason the file was sent was to get constructive criticism and see how it holds up against some of the best simfile makers in the DDR community, and I see no reason to deny it that even if it cannot technically win. (Should time provide, I will be doing so myself.)

I apologize to jesterline for my error, and to everyone paying attention to this for my foibles, large and small, in managing this edition of DDR OSC. I could say "Cut me a little slack, this is my first time doing it without BlueSS", but I'm not. My mistakes are my mistakes and I shouldn't blame them on circumstance.

I'm definately going to look for more co-admins for the next competition, though. Someone needs to be in a position to error-check me, as I believe this demonstrates.

The rules against troublemaking are relaxed for this thread if you wish to give me hell about my management for any reason. The more constructive and understandable the better of course (a post written entirely in Esparanto swear words isn't gonna help me improve much :P ), but I'm pretty sure at least a couple of you probably think I've earned it.

now watch someone actually find esparanto swear words to use.
