The Authors Awards

Thanks for doing this.

 

I made a suggestion once about doing this each year in January or February for FMs over the last year as a kind of Academy Awards, but granted there were more FMs coming out when I made that suggestion. Still it's cool to see this being done. This is of course a special & bigger kind of contest that really honors our authors. Really cool of you to organize this.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

Voted! I was surprised how long some of my favourite TDM authors have been working - disqualifying them from the new author awards. :)

Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us. Our bands of iron and hammers of stone prevailed not, and some did doubt the Builder's plan. But the seals held strong, and the few did triumph, and the doubters were lain into the foundations of the new sanctum. -- Collected letters of the Smith-in-Exile, Civitas Approved

Actually, I am seriously tempted to change my vote just now. There's something on the horizon that's...oh, never mind. Carry on!

Someone voted for me. Thanks nbohr! That makes me happy.

 

Me too! Heartwarming. Thanks guys! :wub:

 

TDM missions are probably not that well known in the TTLG community.

I even got a vote! :D

 

You helped out on enough TDM missions so you have more than one vote by defacto :P

 

You only have yourself to blame for helping to make Crucible:BCD and Sir Talbot's so awesome that they nudged your own missions down in the ranks. :)

 

(Not that I'm complaining.)

Please visit TDM's IndieDB site and help promote the mod:

(Yeah, shameless promotion... but traffic is traffic folks...)

The second phase starts today. I regret there's just a tiny representation of TDM members in the nominees, almost certainly due to the much higher number of TTLG voters. But it was very close in the Most Promising Author category, only a couple of votes here and there.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).

      Well then, it's been about a week since I released my first FM and I must say that I was very pleasantly surprised by its reception. I had expected half as much interest in my short little FM as I received and even less when it came to positive feedback, but I am glad that the aspects of my mission that I put the most heart into were often the most appreciated. It was also delightful to read plenty of honest criticism and helpful feedback, as I've already been given plenty of useful pointers on improving my brushwork, level design, and gameplay difficulty.
      I've gotten back into the groove of chipping away at my reading and game list, as well as the endless FM catalogue here, but I may very well try my hand at the 15th anniversary contest should it materialize. That is assuming my eyes are ready for a few more months of Dark Radiant's bright interface while burning the midnight oil, of course!
