I see no reason why you can't, unless of course you are ....

Hi guys, some late breaking news. The prizes will need to be reshuffled as I have just been contacted by a company who wishes to make another prize donation. I will announce the new prizes in the next few days.

I don't know if you would qualify, technomage. Are you a dogfighting game? I mean, most people are entering games that they have written. I haven't heard of anyone posting themselves as an entry.

Unless you dogfight yourself of course. That could be interesting. The AI would be taken care of already. Though the player controls would be different. Perhaps a stick to prod you and then you respond?

Oh dear, it's too early in the morning.

Hmm... Now which one fires the "friggin' Lasers in his eyes"?
