That's absolutely how it's supposed to be. We'll look into both of these situations, the Redemption one is certainly strange - my first thought is that maybe we somehow got the wrong mission from this author. This stuff got missed by us, mainly because we were so rushed to get the missions out yesterday! Anyway, enjoy the missions for what they are in the meantime. :cool:

Just about to start these, and I just wanted to say THANKS !!!
(especially since I broke my ankle a 2 weeks ago, and I think I'd be even MORE mental without FMs to lose myself in)

Going back to positive aspects I might add that the contest made magic for me - I suddenly became a player :D I really want to play all the entries, I played 4 or 5 of them already. Which is like the amount of FM's I played last 12 months or so.
Much fun.
I think I should play missions from past contests too, seems I like shorter FM's rather then long and big ones maybe?

Just to clarify at this point guys, Redemption is definitely out of the contest. This is a mission released back in October, and it obviously in no way meets the contest requirements. I'm waiting to hear back from Shadak - I'm hoping this author submitted another entry and we just got them mixed up. We'll keep everyone up-to-date, sorry about the confusion.

I'm glad I wasn't just hallucinating - playing Redemption I felt that I've played it before a while ago - I even remembered the menu screen graphic from it, and I play alot of FM's pretty often.
It also seemed like a mission that was much bigger than the allowed specifications - though I'm no dromed master.

And I won't be able to play these until Friday :(
But, congratulations on the releases everyone! That's a solid number of entries! :D

A ha! Thats where I saw that main title graphic. :laff:
Getting back to the actual entires - these missions for the most part are extremely well done - and I am really surprised at what can be done in just a few short months with dromed - those of you making FM's nowadays truly have gotten this down to an art and science.
Impressive stuff!
