Announcing the 2006 Winners!
Posted: Mon May 01, 2006 12:47 amAs relayed on the Gamechef mailing list!
====================
After counting all the votes we recieved (90+% of the eligible voters), a winner has been decided. As you remember, everyone eligible to vote got two votes for two different games. The spread was very interesting, with many of the entries squaring off in the end. I had to do a recount just to make sure that the numbers were right!
Anyway, "First Place" for the 2006 Game Chef Awards goes to:
Crime and Punishment by Moyra Turkington, with 12 total votes.
Congratulations Moyra!
"Second Place", with 9 votes, goes to:
Liquid Crystal by Ashok Desai
"Third Place", with 8 total votes, was a tie between:
Time Traitor by Brian Hollenbeck
and
Merryweather by Kevin Allen
Best feedback award went to Graham Wallmsley, or as one entrant wrote "GRAHAM FUCKING WALLMSLEY".
I lost count of Graham's votes, he had so many. After him, it's a tie off between:
Jessica Hammer ("Kleenstar")
Joshua Bishop-Roby
Iggy Cheng
The above four people will be getting a copy of Sandy Antunes' charity publishing of the Top Eight entries*
Other props for feedback (two or more votes) go to James Brown, Kevin Allen, Ashok Desai, Jason Morningstar, Destriarch and Kenji Baugham.
Congratulations everyone... but your work isn't done! Now it's time to take a good look at your game: If you have something that you'd like to share with others, and most entries were excellent, now start thinking about polishing up your game, and eventually publishing it!
Feel free to grandstand and shout!
Thanks again!

* The folks in the top eight, Sandy or I will be contacting you in the next few days to get your approval for submitting your game to this charity publication; you'll have a month in case you want to do more work, revise, etc.
