Congrats to all the participants, especially Sir, Michael, Deep, and Ikkerens.  Nice job!  * ZTrumpet hopes Sir, Michael, and Deep spend their money wisely.

After seeing the originality results, I would like to know how mine varies so much (it got 8, 8, and 18) and how Sir's (14, 15, and 19) stayed so high for being a ported game.  Don't think I have the wrong intentions (I think Sir deserved to win), but isn't Advanced Wars a port?

----Jump! Fun Facts----
The idea for this entry came just after I read Finale TI's post about that he wouldn't be entering Nostalgia, 7 hours before the deadline.
I finished checking Omni then I wrote the main game engine.  This took about 2 hours.
Next I think I did my homework and other chores.  I came back to work on the Main Menu.
Everything worked with about 3 hours to go except high score saving.  I implemented it and it crashed.  I revised the code and it crashed.  Then it crashed some more.
I gave up and went to bed an hour before the deadline.  I couldn't fall asleep and kept thinking about Jump!  I suddenly remembered one of Builderboy's posts referring to confusion on Copy()^r.  This was also my mistake.
With 4 minutes to spare, I got out of bed, changed the code, and entered it.  This is Jump's journey to the contest.

how come you got the idea when you read that Nolstalgia wasn't going to be entered?  or was it a coincidence?

and also, I remember reading somewhere that DJ said since there's never been a Advanced Wars port, it wouldn't affect originality some much, but idk why yours is so varied.

Maybe it seemed a bit like The Impossible Game blended with

I'm not sure anymore, but if there's already an AWTI clone for calcs, I don't think SirCmpwn entry would have been affected very much in terms of originality compared to if it was a tunnel game or a snake game, for example. Of course it depends of judges opinions, though. For example, in splut I had troubles with controls, but maybe another staff was fine.

I will probably post the scores with review in detail in one single post later. Also, votes were capped at 300 points. If WFRNG got 50 votes and everything else 0, WFRNG would only have gotten 300 points. This was to prevent the survey from affecting judging way too much. If an entry got 15 votes because people loved it but lacked any originality and stuff and was mostly made by someone else and required too much help, it would kinda be weird if it still managed to win anyway. Plus this resulted the risks of seeing WFRNG win (I know ppl could have voted for it for the lulz because it's a meme/joke)

Lol Yunhua. I'll prbly do something based on the omni banner

/\i demand a recount!

Congratulations to all of the winners and all of the contestants alike!  All of you behave admirably and produced awesome programs It was very interesting to see the differences between the pole and the judges, as well as the differences between the judges themselves ^^

And i think there would be a lot more Unhappy people if WFRNG had won I personally think Mansion was far better (no offense to the WFRNG of course )

Yeah same here

As for TravisE I think it might be best that the entries get finished (or close) before a feature.

It would be cool if people uploaded their entries to our download section once finished too.

Oh, I can't believe I forgot to congratulate the winners.

Well, Congratulations!
