Ticalc.org publishes 2010 POTY results
« on: December 31, 2010, 03:55:51 pm »
The Program of the Year 2010 results are already available on Ticalc.org since yesterday.

-For the first time ever, there was a TI-81 survey, as there were two TI-81 features this year. Unity, which allows the execution of third-party ASM code on this ancient calculator lacking a link port, won over Illusiat TI-81 BASIC remake.

-In the 83/84+ category, Axe Parser language won by far. In second place came the revolutionary shell Doors CS 7. Far behind came Mimas, followed by several other great nominations.

-In the 68K categoy, this was a fiercer battle, as Pac Man 68K, which won, almost ended up in a tie with the new programming language NewProg.

-In the TI-Nspire category, Ndless won by far, followed far behind by gbc4nspire. Ndless made every nominated program possible.

In summary, 2010 was a very good year for notable calculator releases, with the second largest TI-83+ POTY ever and one of the largest amount of features in overall, and saw the emergence of TI-Nspire development. Congrats to all winners, but most importantly, for everyone for having been nominated!

The 2010 POTY survey results can be found here. Past years POTY results can be located here, as well as the previous Playm... er... Program of the Month award.

I was expecting this news here too :)

It was an interesting POTY for me, because it was the first one I had since I joined the community, perhaps I'll win one someday :)

That would be cool :D

I myself participated in 4 POTYs so far (2004, 2005, 2006 and 2010), but never won. I was happy to make it to the survey, though.

I did too, although I almost voted for Doors CS 7. For 68K I voted for New Prog but I also went close to vote for Pac Man 68K. Besides that I voted for Unity and Ndless. Seems like I went for new programming languages o.O

Glad to see my two votes counted for a win in each. (Pacman and Axe) Great job Quigibo, well deserved in my opinion. Pretty great showing this year, I think there were quite a few voters this year as well. At least it seemed that way. Cant wait to see what next year's POTY brings!

Congrats to the winners! And to everyone else too (even those who didn't get featured) for such an active year (finally) :)
