OK, I finally have time to post the results of the contest. While several designers had to drop out because of RL issues and time constraints I can tell you that the 2 who went through the process and submitted a completed project did an excellent job. After several combined weeks of detailed inspection, testing and playing of these campaigns by the judges a winner was finally decided. I planned to keep the judges names in confidence unless they wish to speak up and they are free to do so.

Congratulations to Artur who was declared the winner although only by a very close margin. Here are the final scores based on the averages of those given by the 3 judges.

artur = 76.0
deshh44 = 74.3

As winner, artur will receive the prize offered up by Shrapnel Games. The 1st place prize is a free game of the winner's choice from the Shrapnel Games online store. Also in their kindness Shrapnel Games has offered to award the 2nd place contestant a Gift Certificate to be used as credit toward any game from their online store as well. I will be contacting both designers by PM/email and arranging for them to receive their prizes so you 2 do not need to contact Shrapnel. They passed all the info along to me.

I will be posting both of the campaigns as soon as the designers let me know they are ready as I ask them to make any final tweaks and let me know when they are ready for official release. Ironically both campaigns were set on the African continent and I know you will find them very enjoyable. Actually both were very fun and it was only through very intense inspection was a winner decided.

I want thank all of those involved in this process for their time and efforts especially my other judges and especially Annette (at Shrapnel Games) for volunteering to offer the winning prizes.

Well done to the winner. Well, officially artur was the winner BUT Shrapnel Games came through for the 2nd place person as well. :)

Is there any chance of downloading these campaigns to playtest them?I'm having them make any final tweaks/changes and then I'll put them up for DL. I think everyone will enjoy these as much as we did while judging them. I plan to replay them in FUN mode this time around.

Good work from all the participants. :)

DD, as always is a tireless worker for the SP community, Goblin is a famous SP persona, Artur is the Bard (story-teller :laugh: ) and Desh has included in his campaign a superb scenario (although both of you need to work a bit more your maps :devious: ).

As for me, I guess (from the average scores) ... I am the severe judge... :dead: ... :whist: or, in a more "chic" way...I am the SP inquisitor... :devil:

cheers,
Pyros

p.s Also thanks Shrapnel for their generous support! :)

Desh has included in his campaign a superb scenario (although both of you need to work a bit more your maps :devious: ).Yes, we know how you feel about map quality! Please, please don't compare anyones maps to your LZ-Xray map. You'll scare all the new designers off. :laugh:

The slight edge in my scoring went to artur primarilly because of his maps. Other than the maps I had them rated almost equal. Both were very interesting in storyline and the scenarios were all well done.
