Does that make sense? I don't want to be a dick, because I appreciate judging these things is really difficult, and I know how I almost exploded in a fit of rage when one person HG-mailed me twice to complain about my comments on his review in the Team Tournament. So I do apologise for having this mini-rant. I just thought I'd... y'know, do it anyway.

Aw shucks thanks. The only caveat I ask is that you spell my name right :O

Is it just me, or is this entire thread in boldface?

The judges gave out some really awesome comments. Makes me feel sad and ashamed for not getting my entry done.

It's not just you bloomer. I thought it was something I accidentally did with my computer. It's probably something Jason accidentally did the last time he worked on site coding.

Instinctually blaming Venter for everything that goes wrong is a good habit to develop.

Rand, I certainly wasn't intentionally trying to point out that the game rips off FF7; that's probably just a side effect of pointing out that a game is loaded with JRPG cliches.

Between the reviews and the commentary, this topic has massive content. I've not read near all of it, but what I have read so far certainly makes me appreciate the efforts of all involved, especially the judges.

First, a big "wow" to all the comments here. It's great to read people's takes on this. Sometimes it feels tricky critiquing a review that's better than I've written recently.

By the way, I think it was actually Sportsman and Lewis who had the honor of being most disagreed upon in terms of scores by judges, not me and Jason.

Hey ASchultz, I don't really understand what you mean by the following:

Hm, I think I mis-remembered your review wrong, and what was in it. I think it may be more accurate to say there are some tough choices of what to cut, and even after cutting the general excess stuff, you may have to get rid of game details you really like. I tried but couldn't make any suggestions about what, so my critique has to end there.

Congrats to Zig and thanks to the judges for reading through everything.

Sports - I love SMB 2 for NES and all the NES Capcom Disney Games. That should tell you a bit about my stance on difficulty settings. I have no qualms with a game being "too easy."

Well let me put it this way: a game better be damn good if it is going to allow me to march right through it how NSMB did. NSMB wasn't a great experience, so the complete lack of anything almost resembling a challenge didn't help its case at all.
