Original Post
Update:
I recieved quite a few applicants, the vast majority of which where excellent (I ended up creating a seperate mail folder and filter to automatically collect them). Unfortunately I had to pick only a few, both to make sure a final census would be possible and to try and avoid having more judges than entries. Originally I planned on 4 judges, however with all those applications I expanded it to 6 in order to give as many people as possible a chance. Those who I didn't pick to judge this contest have been recorded and will likely be getting spam email directly to them when I need judges again (depending on the success of the Mini-Contest and a judgeless one I have in store for December it could be as early as Jan/Feb).
And without further delay your judges (So if you don't get a good score these are the people to hunt down):
I am now seeking volunteers to judge the Ascii Fish Mini Contest. Anyone who is interested should contact me at david_michalson@hotmail.com. This is a casual contest so I'm not looking for industry veterans, just programmers/artists/gamers like you who can tell when they're having fun. Please include your Gamedev nickname in your email, as my primary method for choosing judges (unless I get just 3 replies) will be based on forum behavoir (I'm not looking for ass kissers here, I just don't want individuals who would intentionally screw up judging for the "fun" of it, ie. trolls). The judging itself will begin on December 1st or 2nd when I upload the entries (Judges will use a provided login to submit their scores, and when all scores have been submited you will have access to a "forum" to discuss which entries should be crowned the winners). Before that date any judges who wish to provide extra help can do so by testing my new Mini-Contests site (it's not open for testing right now due to some Access97-2000 compatiblity issues which are preventing write access). Judges are still allowed to submit entries, however by judging you forfeit your chance to get any of the winning positions.
