Sky, whenever you are ready, you can finish this awards ceremony. Who's coming home with the gold?

The second and first place games were extremely close, almost a direct tie (the difference decided by a little over 0.01 percent). Perhaps this merits a forum vote or some other type of sudden death to determine the winner (as by normal rounding schemes, the games would have had equal percents). In the end, that is up to NightOfHorror.

As the fractional difference stands, second place goes to Hblade's Adventure Pong, and first place to xball.

Wait, what do you mean by .01 percent? Anyways, wouldn't the bonus have made you win anyways?

But anyways, Congratulations Hblade for earning second place. Even though you didn't get first, you have bragging rights, a pass to enter the almighty 2012 championship tournament, and a point.

If you haven't played our second place winner's game then here is your chance to.

H and Sky, I will send you a pass to the tournament as proof of your accomplishment in April and if you lose it you can send me a link to this topic as proof. Sky, I will send you an advantage pass, and if you lose that, you lose the advantage. I will give H his points first, then I will give Sky his two points.

To all participants, I have a few messages for you. If you would like to know your score and what place YOU got, pm sky. As for me, I got fourth place. You can only ask for your own risk of getting hurt.

One final message. Thank you to all participants and judges in this contest. It was a success and you are who made it a success. Next tournament will start on May 2nd.

May 2nd got it And fun! Grats sky.

What will the next tournament be? Perhaps a fighting game?

No, it will be pac-man. It won't be June either, I have plans for that too. You can get started on your game if you feel like it. May 2nd is just when I explain everything.

Since I decided not to rate my own game I had to use percents instead of points to compare the games (otherwise I could only have a max of 60 points, instead of. The end result was the two total percents being less than 0.0111 apart. If both percents were rounded, we'd have scored the same, and I would have to come up with how to break the tie (which is why I suggested perhaps a forum favorite). It seems pretty undecided to me since the scores were so close.

Again, wouldn't the bonus have made a difference? The bonus was meant to be the tiebreaker.

I guess it would have, but the other two judges only gave me two points for the bonus so I didn't really count it.

well, in this tournament, every point counts. Even if you had one bonus point, that still gives you the win.
