Has it been one year already since 4e4??!

Omg, time is passing by so fast these days... :?

They'll be annoucing the 4 elements tomorrow. Lets wait and see whats in store for us this time.
It really can't be any worse than the robots, pirates, zombies and ninjas, they choose for last year.

hehe they seem constantly owned by 500's

Unlike PGD!

[size=7px]Now if only we could have a lounge to distract all us pascal coders from actually coding we could probably be the full pascal equivalent of gdnet [/size]

500s? You mean 500+ Forum posters?

"HTTP Error 500.13 - Server error: Web server is too busy."

Ah... ok. Well lets not hope for that here.

I like the traffic flow of the site just as it is now. Busy, but not too crazy. Ok well I always welcome more visitors.

So is anyone actually thinking of doing ANOTHER competition? :lol: From the feedback of this year's PGD Annual it sounds to me like there aren't a ton of developers here with a lot of energy left for another one.

The prizes of Gamedev pale in comparison to PGD

You bet! Question is, is it going to be the one on retroremakes.com or the 4E5 competition.

They do now, but I wouldn't be surprised if the list is going to be a whole lot bigger near the end of the competition.

Well hopefully we'll be able to maintain future sponsorship with the NEW DevCo company after the dust settles there.

I'm up for another contest (though I hope it's IGF...

). Then again, I wasn't up to the wee hours of the morning chasing down bugs, so I'm not exactly burnt out. But maybe if the 4 elements are "wizards, blocks, strange robots and a dynamic 3rd person perspective camera" I might have an idea or two...
