Round 2... Fight!

[pgpaskar]

Hi all!

After a very successful first contest we've decided to run another one. This time the theme is based on the popular Flash game "Galcon" (website), so you should probably check that out after reading this.

Similar to the last time, you can read our full problem description here and the rules here.

We hope you have lots of fun and wish you best of luck!

ALL THEIR SPACE ARE BELONG TO YOU!

Uhm... Look at the front page. The VERY front page. The very first thing you see without even having to scroll down.

• September 1, 2010: programming materials released to the public.
• Friday Sept 10, 2010: official start date. You will be able to create an account and see your ranking.
• Saturday Nov 27, 2010: submission deadline. No submissions will be accepted after 11:59 PM.
• Wednesday Dec 1, 2010: official results and final rankings will be released. Who will be the winner? Will it be you?!

Oh thanks, I have supposed I must be blind ...

Do you expect there will be another after this planet_war?
Will there be a Round 3?

Mind you, I have no idea what time of day on Saturday, but it's a good idea to submit whatever you have so far on the prior Friday just in case.
