Jacqueline Lott has announced the winners of the 2005 IntroComp.
This year's IntroComp winners were recently announced in a grand ceremony on ifMUD. Many thanks to those who attended!
There were seven introductions, all of which will hopefully receive the real prize of IntroComp - feedback. If you played the games and had thoughts, please share them via e-mail with the authors or post reviews!
The top three introductions in this year's competition were as follows:
3rd place
The Fox, The Dragon, and The Stale Loaf of Bread
by David Welbourn
2nd place
Weishaupt Scholars: Prologue
by Michael C. Martin
1st place
Deadsville
by William McDuff
Congrats! These three will have until July 23, 2006 to finish their introductions, and as added incentive beyond the obvious (adoration of their peers, for instance) they will receive money. Out of my pocket. Lots of it, really. I'm offering $200 to the three of them, and I hope they make me pay. $100 to William, $60 to Michael, $40 to David. I look forward to paying up.
I look forward to reading everyone's reviews. Thank you to everyone who provides feedback to the authors, either in public or private!
Congratulations to the winners!
