It's already 8th here where I am.
But just after 1 pm (for me: yesterday) in Hawaii Time Zone :p
Patience must be our shield ;)

(5+8+(5*2))/3=7.7 which was how i interpreted the scoring, it was a weighted average of three inputs, but it seems that what they really meant was (5+8+5+5)/4=8.25.
That can't be right, either. 5+8+(2*5)/4 = 5.75, which would mean that you didn't rate any missions higher than 57.5%?
It doesn't really matter, I guess, but I'm confused! :confused:

... the entire voting portion of the contest was a little slipshod, rules were never posted on the host sites...
Actually, at the Keep, on the Anniversary Contest page, it tells the voting rules quite clearly, although it IS as the bottom of the page and perhaps not as easy to find as it should have been.
Jason, I did get your raw scores and have calculated them in correctly.
Incidentally, you gave the lowest ratings, by far, of any voter, by almost half the average! I guess this contest just didn't do it for you! That's fine of course, we all have varying tastes, but maybe you're growing "Thief Jaded" in your old age or something ;)
And to everyone, yes the scoring math is basically (5 + 5 + (5+5))/4. That provides a 0-10 score which is the average of the three categories with double weight on Gameplay.
The results are all calculated and I'll have them up soon!
(PS - UliB, I had done all the emailed votes during the week, and only got the PMed votes today, so I finally got yours with the read receipt today!)

i guess its what i would call builders bias. consider i looked at everyone's entry in both the game and through dromed.

Yeah that makes some sense, if you see behind the curtains of everything the magic can be lost!

Results are in! See the Keep for details!

@ Shadak...
Did you get my votes? They aren't much more rosy than Ottos.
Sxerks on 8/1/2009 at 03:44
Wow, only 30 votes, do you have any stats on how many people downloaded them between the 2 sites?

First of all, a big thank you to the Keep and Southquarter for putting together a terrific contest.
Congratulations, Lady Rowena. The Tower was simply magnificent and my heart sunk while I was playing it and realized my mission had no chance against yours.:(

Congratulations, Lady Rowena; richly deserved :thumb: The Tower is a wonderful FM.
Just 30 votes is disappointing - surely many more than that played the missions.
And I'm wondering if the results announcement may not be all that easy to spot. Maybe a new thread...?

Congrats Lady Rowena! The Tower is the perfect mission as far as I'm concerned! Happy to have helped you get the first spot. :D
Keep up the amazing work! :thumb:
