Where can we get more information about this contest? Is it a programming contest like the CCC or do you actually just submit stuff?

man, i just read through the manual Confused there's so much non-programming work to do... infact so much that i probably wont do it.. there's internal and external documentation, a users guide, a detailed description of all variables, an abstract.... omg too much work...

btw short1, your pacman game doesnt fall under any of the specified categories -_-

short1 >> your game is a program but that doesnt mean it's in one of the categories they mention:

sciences
mathematics
art/graphics
simulation games (close but your game doesnt simulate anything Confused )
operating system utilities
business applications

so i think you need to start working on something new Rolling Eyes
