Hey Jason,

I really wanted to participate, but I had some real problems for a quite long period within the competition. So I did not see any chance to finish my project in time this year. I'd really love to join a smaller competition which lasts for one week or two... Thats a straightforward timerange you can plan... but within 4 months there is always the risk that some private things will disturb the project.

Ok, enough chattering...

What I wanted to say is: All the folks who are still in the compo, put your ass on the chair and make cool stuff to show in the end. I was not able this year, but anyone who sends in ANYTHING has real chances on the prizes! Just remember that last stage there were only 5 uploads, so there is not much quantity of rivalry.

And the prizes this year really rock! So go and get them!
