Oh, I hope we win!

[vilvoh]

me too...

As Isaac announced here, the winner of Best Project for Gamers was not Simutrans but ScummVM, an emulation engine for LucasArts Graphical Adventures. The complete list of winner is at Sourceforge.

At this point, we must congratulate ScummVM community and all we can say is we'll see in next year's awards..

[Isaac Eiland-Hall]

Yes, let us be more polite than the Rigs of Rods community (which I am also a part of, and most of whom were nice, but not all... heh) :-)

I wouldn't have minded if RoR or Simutrans had won, but I was pulling for Simutrans (although since it's about the size of the community and motivation of members, I though RoR had the better chance between we two...)

I think winner is ScummVM, isn't it ?

yes indeed, this xmbd thing won 2008

[vilvoh]

Opss!! I must update myself... :

I'd say we did pretty well. I mean the concept of simutrans isn't new and the tile based system we use is also rather previous century. So we can be happy that we've become a finalist - there are only 85 finalists out of more than 4000 participants. So we've rather won than lost.

The detailed voting is out. We are fourth place, together with four others, and missed third by just a percent ...

Very impressive

[sojo]

7th Palce. I think this is a very good place, for Simutrans.

[prissi]

Not really 7th; 4th together with number 4,5,6,7 all with 10%.

[sojo]

Prissi you have to go over the 10% with your mouse. Than you can see that simutrans have: 1052 votes and the other have a little bit more.

I think both arguments are valid - 4th-7th place are extremely close - sure, we're technically 7th, but essentially near 4th...

[jamespetts]

Either way, even being nominated was good going...
