OK, well its a bit later than midnight here in the Netherlands, so I'll have to wait a bit. Could you perhaps say like: 2 days from now we will have the results... or something like that?
Don't worry, I'm here <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Final exams though, I hope to grab the entries around midnight and judge them, all the while cramming for my Calculus III tomorrow. I'll have my decisions about 7:00 AM CST tomorrow.
I have looked at 2 of them already, and got some comments, but nothing down "on paper" yet.
tell us, infact, why dont you show your scores for the three maps.
belg, can i see your up to date entry? ill send you mine.... <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

However. The scoring system me be revamped. I'll update my posts along with sumaries during the day and tonight.
The Secert Room was for mere bonus points, which none were unavailable, so they are NULL. Belgarion's RR has no P.S. and such was exempt from the P.S. tables and those were not averaged as Zeros, merely skipped.
Seeing as I started the whole thing, it might be nice if I didn't have to deal with a judges' rebellion out there in <b>ShenTraX</b>-und<b>HanzGrub3r</b>-ville.

Out of the 3 i've done, 2 are a tie for first.
I'm impressed.
/e clarification.
*doubts his own work*
Hanz - that is NOT the current one. my most current is in a zip file.

meh. i only spent a few days on it. good enough for me.
I haven't written detail summaries on each, and I'll probaly have a 1st and 2nd instead of a tie.
Plus my scores are averaged in to the other judge's score for the final grades, this method can an probably will change the tide.
if i give a 5, and the other 2 give 10's its an 8. likewise if i give a 10, and the other 2 vote 5's ... thats 6.
This is not over... i'd keep watching...

Hanz maybe we should have included John in our PMs.. LOL
Hanz an I agree that the PS shouldn't be counted as 3 categories, but as 1, putting more weight on the upper categories.
We are currently working on a re-write of the scoring system.
John, I apologize.
Once we come to an agreement we'll post re-scores.

I'm sorry, but I'm not quite sure what you mean by that! Could you explain <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ?

As to my previous offer of details, that's what it is; basically more in-depth explanation of my judgement (with screenies, suggestions, etc.)
