I think that a lot of this confusion would be cleared up if there was simply a document that would outline the methods that will be used for judging in the future. If ROM hacks will not be judged on par with traditional fan games then it should be noted so that everybody knows before hand. Personally I am glad for the work that the NCFC staff put into running this competition and it is saddening to see so much complaining. Personally I agree that Rom hacks are on a different playing field than from the ground up Fan Games as designing the engine is a HUGE portion of making a fan game, but that is not to be-little Rom Hacks, it just means that they are a different animal.

Lets not remove this little competition portion of NCFC, but rather clarify it to avoid such confusion in the future... That is my two cents at least. Also, thank you for your award to TLOZ: Shattered Dimensions. I appreciate it. Having a little competition is good, and it is always nice to have your hard work recognized. Thanks again!
