Oh, actually won a trophy! Awesome!

It's very interesting that Sik and I are actually sharing the spotlight. Considering that our hack have the exact same purpose; to make Super Sonic playable, except in different games.

So, I would like to thank everyone involved in the contest, and lament the fact that the podcast had to be dropped. Though I'm eargely awaiting for Ben Kalough to share his views on some of this contest's entries.

Congratulations to all the winners!

How does one qualify as a judge?

[MarkeyJester]

Judges have to have a sense of fairness I believe, the more you are openminded to many different styles, themes, and acceptances, the more you'll be able to set a fair judgement.

[Ravenfreak]

I do agree with Tweaker though, Mercury should definitely be a judge, that is if he wants to be. I'd like to be, but I don't think I'm fit to be a judge anyway.

[Mercury]

If it's worth anything, I feel Mercury would make a fantastic hacking contest judge; in fact I think I might respect his opinions on the dynamics of a Sonic game more than my own at this point. I know there might be a conflict of interest as he occasionally enters his own hacks into the contest, but I think he's worth considering regardless.

Wow, thanks. I'd love to be a judge.

There'd be little chance of conflict of interest, at least in 2011. I'll be too busy with Time Twisted to make another ROM hack soon.

I'm glad to see that the work that has been put into Sonic 1 Lunacy by myself and the rest of the Masochistic Maniacs has paid off with the Genocide City Trophy for the second year in a row.

Rest assured that next year we are entering with the intent to build on what we have achieved so far. Judges, expect no mercy.

I would appreciate if the involveds in the contest could upload videos of the trophy winners. I'm very interested in seeing them all in action, but I don't have time to download and play them all by myself.

That's actually a great idea. There is a problem in terms of hacks that aren't public, but I think that could be easily sorted. I'll work on it later.

I really, really want to at least SEE Press B for Shittles.

No, no you don't.

Oerg and I tried to do this a couple years ago as a megadrive "video demo", but it was finished after the results were posted and has disappeared into obscurity. This will be implemented next year.

Why I wouldn't have any problem with my content being made public, I still have one major problem: The HC built looks MUCH different from the current one and I don't want people to see stuff that doesn't exist anymore.

Would you mind giving me a build and I'll record it? That would work out.

Oh, that's something else of course, even though I now have the problem of stuff being unfinished so much, that it's still impossible to be made public. Otherwise I wouldn't have a problem of course.

Okay. I'll talk to you on IRC about a possible and workable solution.

Here you go. Press B at the title to play as Shittles.

It was a good lineup of hacks this year. I was surprised and amazed to see such awesome hacks. It was a really good lineup this year and I'm glad I got to take part in it.

And I still don't believe I won two trophies. :\

Well that stayed on my hard disk for all of five minutes.
