Congrats to everyone who won!

I can't help but wonder what would have happened if I'd been able to submit a Nostalgia demo, though...

easy, you would have won.  ;)

I agree, Nostalgia seemed to be the most anticipated thing for the contest. (Well at least it was for me)

Congrats, everyone!
May I suggest a Nspire contest for next year?

You should do a 68k contest, to try and bring back the 68k community.

Yeah someone suggested that on ticalc for our 2 contests. It might encourage 68K users to join too. It would certainly be a game contest, though.

Congratulations to all the participants for having the discipline to turn something in. You beat me at that point already :), Second, Congratulations to the prize winners, well deserved! And last but not least I still, with all respect, feel it's a little awkward that WFRNG was above the Mansion Impossible, IMHO it should be vice versa...however if this is the decision of the judges and of the voters (of which I am one) then so be it, it doesn't really matter :). Ooh and @guy, don't be discouraged by this! As I said in the beginning of this post, you actually turned something in which is more then I have done :P!

Congrats to all the participants, especially Sir, Michael, Deep, and Ikkerens. ;D  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. ;D

Wow... That's a long coding streak.  I could never pull off something like that.

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.

It was just a coincidence but I believe it may have been the name.  Perhaps:
"Nostalgia"  * ZTrumpet thinks of his Axe programs of past... ;D

Congratulations to everyone who won! I knew that I wouldn't win with just a one-roomed demo, anyway.
