I could test and screenshot for 82/83 if it becomes necessary. I doubt it will, though. Oh, and I frontpaged the news about this. Which sites do you want to post about this on, and which should I?
I will post on my site about it, and I will also do Omnimaga. If you do tifreakware and anywhere else you can think of, that would be good.

To restate Harrierfalcon's question, are there deductions or disqualifications of announcing your project before the end of scoring?

Generally we consider it a disqualification unless there are extreme extenuating circumstances.

Is that because you assume they post it to get help?
Don't worry, I have all my bases covered, as I mentioned in the reply to your PM. Obviously I can't control other sites, but if someone's that intent on cheating, then they'll find a way.
well, by using a pre-announced project, you have an advantage of already having some code.

No, not preannounced. I meant announcing it now.
If I could use preannounced projects I'd already be 96% done

Well, does that mean I can't post progress in Project M on my site since that will be my entry? The contest just happened to be the same topic as it; I started Project M less than a week before the contest started...

Could you please expand on that statement?
You may not make a good game, for that would persuade them to vote for it. Seriously, I'm pretty sure he means bribery.

Disqualified! Thou shalt not persuade them to explain thy rules.
hmm, good question. Let me think on it a little bit, as I will be judging them separately.
Also, in some ways, Nikky did bring up a point. If you announce on a site, and I for some reason happen to visit it, can I really be fair then? just a hypothetical.

I'd like to try making a platformer for the contest, but I', in the middle of making a RPG, and I haven't really looked into sidescrolling or being able to do things like jumping...
Oh! Jumping is HARD to make realistic. At least if you want the game to be fast. It is nearly only possible in TI-basic if the jumping object is small.

Back on topic I have made good progress on my entry and have a game engine and external level compatibility so far. What do the rest of you have done?
I also have a engine who calls another program for levels. It is a mix between a platform game and a maze game.

HAH!!! I have a DOUBBLE dot that jumps!
J/k 
Please don't double-post. PLEASE don't triple post. Those can all be easily combined into a single post.
Firstly Olav, try not to triple post, second jumping is not hard in basic, third what's wrong with two pixles, 'The Game' had only one.
