Scoring
I asked the judges to give each game a score of 1 to 10. I left this freeform, since everyone has their own opinions of scoring methods, and things like that.

Balancing
Taking each judge's responses in turn, I re-rank the games, using the scores the judges awarded the games. The game with the highest score is given 5 points, next gets 4, etc, until the lowest gets 1.

If there are doubles they both get the higher point.. (ie, 1x10, 1x7 and 3x6 becomes 5,4,3,3,3)
If a judge is unable to get a game running, that game is sympathetically given the same score as the lowest game judged by that judge..

Rounding it all up
Tot up the points for each game, get a total.



Which, I think, says it all..

You pretty much can't get much closer than that!

You can read the complete Judge's responses here. But.. you know.. if you scored badly... !

Woot! Excellent stuffage, and a very close run thing.

Thankyou Jayenkai and all the judges.

Some lovely little games here.

Just a reminder, 'cos I'm not sure you've noticed it!! There's a marginally lighter/brighter/bolder "PM" thing, over on the left, Rockford..

Well done to all who entered, and well done to rockford for winning. Thanks to the judges too, and I do agree with their comments on my game. Suitable controls fail on my part.

Seems that rushing too much doesn't always help.. I should probably remember that for AGameAWeek!!
Sorry shroomy!

But congrats to Rockford, and also DD, who got really really stupidly close to winning!

Well, I intend to remake it properly, with all the features I originally intended, and sound effects that actually exist! That will be by new project for the first part of this year.

Congrats to Rockford!

I think I would have preferred comming last. Losing by just 1 point is really annoying. I'll also be taking the comments on board and improving the game.
