Competition Rules:

* The Effect must be a one-screener
* For ECM Mode only one Charset with 64 Chars is allowed
* The 64 Char Font is not allowed to be altered at runtime
* Play with your imagination. Maybe use the Petscii font in ECM mode
* Variations of the effect are allowed but it must be the same effect(code)
* Alteration or switching of the font on a per-line basis is not allowed ((linecrunching / etc.) set $d011/d016/d018/vic-bank only in init))

With my interpretation of the rules I thought they already were banned?! That's why I had to jump through hoops to come up with my entries.

Although its spirit has slowly moved from "Hey pure ECM only!" to "Ok do what you want, any further ECM little fart as addon will work", I loved this compo, which has shown some very smart and arty ideas! Congrats to all the participants! Loved Quadrants since the first sight.

Congratulations to the winners! Excellent compo and I enjoyed all entries. From my POV it was nice with a clear limited scope* to get focus and produce something without it having to be a massive undertaking.

*) yes fully aware of all the rules discussions. Please keep it simple and focused if repeated :-)

Yes, nice work everyone!

Also, reminder to self: stop making up extra rules for yourself; limiting to 2048b didn't actually help your ranking at all.

And yes, I think it will be a more level playing field next time if everyone's aware from the outset that music and scrollers are allowed!

Thanks again Street Tuff, great concept, and running these things is hard.

”Read the rules again. Nothing about sprites in the rules... The 1st who mentioned "his entry" does not use sprites was ZeSmasher. As the rules dont mention sprites they are allowed.”

Jackie, everyone knows that now, but it’s fairly clear that some of us took a while to realise that they were perfectly legal from day one. C’est la vie :)
