[QUOTE="Iron Sky, post: 8379987, member: 60965"] [USER=7023840]@Snarf Zagyg[/USER] , after reading your summary, your adventure is much deeper and nuanced than I saw when I was judging. I literally am about the worst judge you could have drawn for this; me having to go to a search engine to see who the Coen brothers were again probably doomed you more than anything you could have done on your end. Having the goals snipped also probably hurt you the most in playability as it left almost all the focus on Bay. It would have been much harder to judge with multiple objectives. I've never run a time travel game because why not just go to the point in time when Bay is building a time machine and stop him before he has the capability of creating a reality breach? Also, tvtropes is cool. I think I went down the rabbit hole on it when I first heard about it a decade-ish ago, then forgot it existed until you just mentioned it again. Wikis are like crack to me and I can only dip lightly lest I fall into them for hours straight. [USER=11]@el-remmen[/USER] my compare-contrast brain was functioning when I read your entry but I was trying to cover the adventures individually. Effectively replace "many of them are individually arbitrary/replaceable or barely linked" with "I found the ingredients somewhat tighter and less changeable than in[B] Let Slip[/B]." [/QUOTE]
