A big thank you to all the authors who participated, and an especially big congratulations to Schlock for pulling off the win! Many of these missions are masterpieces in their own rights, and I look forward to replaying them and discovering all the secrets I missed the first time around!

My big thanks as well to all the authors! It was a blast to play these and a very high standard overall. Alcazar firmly deserved the win, even though I had Turning of the Leaves 1 point above.
I am shocked to see DrK did the Cinder Notes. I did not see that coming at all! Skacky was a bit more understandable. But what are you guys doing making contest missions, when you should be working on the Black Parade?!
Psych0sis, you have certainly increased your level with each entry, and to do it in 10 days is just crazy. And after listening to this podcast and the one from the T2 contest, you certainly are a good liar. (Is that a good quality?)

Hehe, notice the entire crew wasn't part of the contest for a good reason! ;)

These missions were also nice breathers from the behemoths of size and complexity found in the campaign.

Congratulations to Schlock with "Alcazar" and all other authors - us players were certainly winners with all of your splendid FMs. Thanks to Brethren and Al_B. Great contest with hours of fabulous sneaky exploration.

Thanks everyone who played Alcazar for the kind words and favorable votes, and of course thanks to my fellow authors who participated. There were a lot of great entries this contest so it was fun to speculate about how the final ranking would turn out. I was unsure how my mission would be received until I actually started getting feedback, so it's very gratifying to have made it to first place. I guess the last-minute 3 A.M. debugging sessions were worth it :cool:
I'll be working on Alcazar v1.1 soon, which will include some bug fixes and a French translation courtesy of Apiai. No guarantees when it'll be done.

Working on the contest got me out of a major rut with the Black Parade. Aside from that Alcazar update, I will be focusing on TBP until it is released.
