(bump)
Anyone else think that he deserves a tut writers cup?

I won't actually vote, take or leave my opinion.
His scripting tutorial is fairly clear, and nicely laid out. Although there's some parts he can go more indepth about (such as how to add more players than just one (by having an example of having Players[1], Players[2] and increasing howManyPlayers, etc.), and linking to the standards thread)
I'm not sure how much a RuneScape tutorial goes towards a tutorial cup, but it also seems decently clear and nice, if they do go towards one, I say give it to him.
Otherwise, I'm on the borderline (if I actually were to vote) leaning towards yes, but one more decent scripting tutorial would be a definite yes (again, if I were going to vote).

@ Iron Man and Cazax, you were both voted in to SSRL because we think you're both balanced and mature enough to make informed decisions about this sort of stuff. If we didn't think that, you wouldn't of been let in. So vote ;)

Like Claw said, it's not like srl members where you have to wait like 2 weeks to vote on apps :p you have an opinion, and that's why you're in here.
A runescape tutorial should count towards the cup I think. Boreas (before becoming an admin) got a tutorial writers cup although none of his tutorials were about scripting. And I'm sure there were some other people.
You make some good points, iron man :)

Yes, he's put a lot of effort into his tutorials as you can tell by the length.
And as he doesn't seem to be getting SSRL, we can give him this.

Uhm.. No.
I think his scripting tut could use some work, but his RS one is long, and frankly, not that useful.
Its not about 99 magic.. o.O
