    So, I decided I am going to sponsor some downloadable games for the compo as motivation.

    I talked to WILL and we thought it would be best if the winners can choose their games (First place chooses first, second place second, third last). Here is the small list of games:
    - Mass Effect 2 (EA Download Manager code)
    - Terraria (Steam gift)
    - Frozen Synapse (Download with optional Steam key)
    - The Secret of Monkey Island (Steam gift)
    Freeze Development | Elysion Game Framework | Twitter: @Stoney_FD

    Oh, allthough I'm not much of a gamer, this really makes things more interesting.

    the next igdc contest is about to start any day now and it should last for 2 weeks.
    I would like to take part in both contests so I would very much appreciate it if the start date was pushed to around 14-15 June.

    Ok thanks for letting me know Dan. This makes me want to push it back a week or so now.

    Tell you what, I'll make you a deal. If I push it back all I ask is that you help spread the word of the PGD Challenge Mini Competition. Places such as the IGDC and whatver other developer forums you know of. The mini compo will be much more fun with more people involved anyhow, right?

    I was about to announce it as a June 10th start, but maybe push it back to the next Friday. Also with it ending on the July 1st weekend we might have a few missed submissions due to any North American partying going on that weekend too. Anyone else's countries celebrate something in early July?

    So that would be friday the 17th huh? Seems like an excellent idea from my perspective. I've got an important deadline on the 15th and the first week of july will probably be completely filled too.
