    hey guys... still got 3 more loads of judges scores to add to my comprehensive spreadsheet...

    I've not checked myself yet to see who is in the lead...Will get the scores posted tonight... will need a few hours yet to get it all in and triple checked...

    Takes a damn long time....

    Good luck everyone...
  • tenrdrmertenrdrmer Member, Sous Chef, Senior Sous-Chef Posts: 9,934
    Cool Stormy. Did you get all the judges scores in?
  • StormyStudioStormyStudio United KingdomMember Posts: 3,989
    6 out of 10... (never heard from 1 the other 3 have good reasons for being too busy to tackle the hours it will take to do the scoring). I really appreciate the work the 6 that have scored have done.

    One problem, with one judge missing one persons game for scoring...so this may delay things as I await an email from them with the missed scores...otherwise I've only got one more judges scores to put in...

    Then total up everyones scores, then make another spreadsheet with all the totals, then work out the winners for each category, then write the announcement then make the announcement.
  • tenrdrmertenrdrmer Member, Sous Chef, Senior Sous-Chef Posts: 9,934
    Geez you make it sound like theres a whole lot left to do or something. ;)
  • GamersRejoiceGamersRejoice Member Posts: 817
    This one is for you Jon.



    Thanks for all of your hard work, and thanks to the judges that participated. :) Can't wait to see the results.

    @outasite - Thank you :)

    Good luck everybody!

    Sorry, misread... Thought you were talking about the results... :) My bad...
  • outasiteoutasite Member Posts: 417
    Aaww... Can someone post my name so i can see it win somewhere?
    :D but no, I had lots of fun. Looks like I'm playing again next time.

    My thanks:
    -Stormy
    -Judges
    -GS
    -The winners to push us losers harder

    Hey stormy I think I remember u and tenrdrmer, talking about giving the contestants their score without the judges names? Is this still open?
  • 8BitAvrin8BitAvrin Member, PRO Posts: 368
    Yay now I can stop checking the forums every couple of hours, haha!

    I won Best Originality!! Feels great! I was hoping for 1st of course, but that's ok. I guess I'll wait until GameCenter achievements are incorporated to jump to pro. I just looked at my entry video again and man those videos made it look like my game lags, but it doesn't at all, ha.

    Anyways this contest was very fun and challenging. I had a great time, and this competition led me to creating Detective Deep so a big thank you to Jon/Stormy for getting all this going & keeping it organized. I also thank all of the other contestants for the great competition and motivation, and another big thank you to the judges as well. Looking forward to next time!

    Congratulations to all the other winners and good luck with your games in the app store if its going there!

    (I'm still testing my game and polishing it up some, but expect to see it in the app store soon!!)
