I don't know where else to make my case so sorry if this is the wrong place.
I feel insulted about the reason for Cave Story being rejected. I was properly prepared for my run, to the best of my knowledge. Let me describe what happened.
1. I installed CS on the PC I was to use for the run.
2. I checked the controller I was using, (by simply plugging it in) using a certain usb extension which I was told the PC was to use.
3. I played the game for about a minute, seemed fine. Someone was waiting for me to finish so they could also test their game.
4. Later, my run was about to start, I was told to use a different usb extension which was added on to the one I used earlier. The controller didn't work.
5. It was soon found that the mouse and keyboard plugged into similar extensions (I think they were split off from the one I used for the controller) no longer worked.
6. After a few minutes of the tech team not knowing what was wrong, Lurkchan offered to let me use his laptop. As a last resort we did so.
7. It worked, but for some reason the game ran at about half-framerate compared to usual. I requested a moment to troubleshoot, was denied.
8. Played on and got a decent run - a single, unfortunate death cost quite a bit of time, but not a big deal otherwise. I got a lot of positive feedback about the run, though I guess you guys would know how much or how little $$$ it made.
The only issue was with the usb extensions used for my controller, which I hadn't tested because I didn't know about them. I tested a different extension that I'd been told about, and it worked fine.
There was also something mentioned about installing the controller's drivers. There are drivers you can download and install for the adapter I use on my controller, but I've never had to use them before, and didn't have to use it on the extention I tested. I just plugged it in and it worked, just like it works on my laptop and desktop PCs.
If you want to find a reason to cut the game, I'm fine with that. Just please know that the "fiasco" wasn't caused by me "not being properly prepared."
