Now that I think about it, I don't like the idea of a team breaking up to fight each other. It would probably be better if the teams fought in a tournament bracket, and then at the end the winning team either splits top prize or splits up and the members fight each other in one final round.

I'll probably end up making only platformers, although I could make other games. I just like platformers the best. I'm not so great at graphics.

the only upside to "winner takes all, all others take a loss" is that the tounament will end heck-a lot faster than traditional tournament matchups.

I'm changing it so that only the top 50% of the teams win, and the bottom 50% lose, or 66%/33%, rounding toward the loss. That way no one is eliminated very quickly at all, and you can take a lower place without any real penalty.

That balances things out a bit more, and would last twice as long at least. What do you guys think?

Shoot, i'm away in Poland on a stag do til Monday too - hope this doesn't cause too many problems. Can we extend the first round for 2 weeks or something, just to ease everyone in? I noticed i'm not the only one who'll miss the first few days.... (grovel, grovel)

I don't know what I can do about extending the competition deadlines or start dates, but if you get back monday, you'd still have plenty of time.

Mr. Pink Ghost dude, the mmf app needs to be open source, definitely, if I was to consider using it.\

If it means more people able to enter, I think we ought to extend it if we need to. It shouldn't be that big of a problem, and think about how you'd feel not getting to enter a compo because of a couple days' miss.

Judging by how many people have said that, you'll do just fine.

I've got loads of self-confidence!!! Why else would I be typing all of this in BOLDFACE TYPE?!!

Seriously though, if I didn't, I wouldn't have been the second person to enter.

On an off-topic note, anyone know how to embed links in text in this forum? Just asking.
