RESULTS: Build & Win Construct 2 Contest *******************

[Venetia]

 

THE CONTEST IS FINALLY AT AN END.
The judges have painstakingly mulled over all the entries, and, after much deliberation and thought, have compiled all of their scores, and all entries have been placed.
There was a tie for 3rd place, and it was so close, that the numbers of votes were counted, along with their Community scores (again, assigned only in case of ties).
In the end, we have all agreed that we feel the top 3 who placed deserve their titles.
We are only saddened by the fact that we can only make 12 of you winners. If we had the cash, we'd be awarding all of you.

In any case, without further delay ...
Behold, the winners of the CONSTRUCT 2 BUILD & WIN CONTEST!:

[Spoo]

Congrats, wishy!

Welcome to recognition!

 

[Venetia]

I'm sorry, joannesalfa -- I really loved High Speed Zero. You did really good work on it!
Maybe one of the winners will want to donate their copy to you?

I hope no one is too down about how they placed ... We tried to judge as fairly as humanly possible. You all did so well; thank you all for participating!!! :heart: :heart: :heart:

 

[Venetia]

By the way, the PMs were sent to all the winners. Check your inboxes :D

 

[Wink]

Congregations everyone! Wow, this is incredible news :D I never won anything in my life before this i already have a standard license, and I would like to give this one to someone that didn't win anything if that is ok?
Im at the bar selebrating right no but I want to give this away farely so wait till I sober up!

 

[Bob Thulfram]

Congrats to all, winners or nay. This was my first contest and I learned a huge amount in a very short time. Let's do it again!

 

[rosareven]

Congratulations everyone \o/

I can see this contest being really difficult to judge. All entries have a certain unique charm that makes each one special. I can imagine some of you judges have a bit of heartbreak at the ones that didn't make it into the list.

 

[farsmile90]

Congr everyone ^^, great contest ! and wow, i win it :box: :box: ,maybe i'll keep the license, and open another small contest for all my friend who like construct )

 

[BlueScope]

I found the scores interesting... and definitely not like I would've expected them. That goes for both the outcome as for individual scores for individual games. Personally, my calculated score was 19, so I was pretty close... however, in my estimation, that only got me somewhere between place 10 and 14 ^^ So, I'm a lot higher than I thought I'd be, but I'm glad I am for sure :biggrin:
I'm glad I managed to avoid the dreaded 13th place, but I'm a little downed that it's taken by my personal favorite for this contest... anyone announce to donate their license yet to runner-ups?

Overall, there's a lot of games that I think deserve to be where they are (and very few that I think don't)... I can cheer with the winner here, though, as that game surely had to have a high-up spot. I'm glad to see the Music Fighter, Dungeon.Sec and Green 2: Red in there as well... but of course, congrats to all winners!

You may have already seen this, but remember, you can view all the specific scores and their breakdowns in this PDF. Most of the people who placed were ridiculously close in scores.

 

[BlueScope]

Yeah, I already overanalyzed it with Raven backing me... there were a few very questionable decisions in there that even were shared between judges... (overall, that is, not for my game... but with very little impact also for my game). I really apprechiate the in-depth listing, btw... very insightful.

 

[Jason]

How could 3 people NOT give me and Tuna a 4 for Marketing?! I mean, there's even a 2 in there! Judge number 9, whoever you are, I don't like you anymore! *pouts*

 

[farsmile90]

) maybe if ya see him/or her you'll change your mind, be cool jason and congr to you :box:

 

[Jason]

Oh don't worry, if I meet this person I'll umm... I'll do something... something SO bad, that they'll... well I don't know, cry or feel bad or something? Maybe if I show them a picture of drowning puppies... or of I ACTUALLY drown puppies... hmm, I'm gonna' have to ponder this idea. :thumb:

But thanks lol, and yeah congratulations to everyone! :toot: :cheers:

No problem, i appreciate your post and it was fun for participating the contest.

When i saw a thread about who wants to be jugde, then i knew some judges have friends may support for their friends and add low score to each other who is not known. That's fine, but quite unreasonable for being a judge to public. Every other contest holders will choose the judges who made their popular games and let ask them if they want to be judge.

It seems like i have should to have done extra features like additional maps, nitro, more cars, etc. maybe i get extra scores, but it was late due to deadline since i started in march 25th heh.

I didn't know there some participants already have licenses, if they donate a copy to me, i should to give my .capx and make custom car, map and character for anyone who donated me.

Congrats all winners!
