About the contest:
Our five judges, you will recall, were James M. Ward, Frank Mentzer, S. John Ross, Richard Scott of Otherworld Miniatures, and Ignatius Umlaut, Publisher and Editor of Fight on!. They were asked to score modules in seven categories, including (in rough order of importance) likely player enjoyment, technical creativity, fantastic vision, player challenge, story potential, likely GM enjoyment, and implementation. Judges however had leeway to impose their own general sense of 'quality' on the scores they gave.
Every module submitted was looked at by 4 of the 5 judges and scored from 1-5 in each category, giving a final score from 12 to 60. These scores were added to determine winners.
All contest winners will be published in some future issue of Fight on!
We enjoyed reading all your submissions, even the ones that didn't make the cut, and hope to bring back a similar contest in 2009.
Thanks for participating, and keep fighting on!

First Honorable Mention The Hobgoblin God's Crown, by "Deuce Traveler" Khas Fara, by Jason Morningstar
Deuce, let us know if we can use your real name.
Gentlemen, congratulations. Both of you have won either a $10 cash payout (in which case, send your paypal or snail mail address to ignatius at iggyumlaut at gmail) or else, thanks to the special generosity of Richard at Otherworld, a small selection of miniatures appropriate to your module. For Jason this would be a few gnolls; for Deuce, perhaps a single ogre, or if you want to wait a while Otherworld's new hobgoblins when they are released.
Thank you both for your sterling contributions!

It is a joyful thing indeed to hold intimate converse with a man after one's own heart, chatting without reserve about things of interest or the fleeting topics of the world; but such, alas, are few and far between.

Wherefore art thou, Sham? Once you take your bow (and the rest of my family goes to sleep!) I can announce this far and wide...the rest of the prizewinners are accounted for.
Good work, gentlemen, one and all!
