Put a time limit on voting close and the whole community should be allowed to vote. Because yeah, what if there were only 2 entrants?

Enjoy your day.

the voting will end at 11 pm this evening

I do believe anyone should be aloud to vote, because the competition is open to anyone in the community anyways and if a person didn't enter, but took the time to look at the programs then they should be able to vote.

I vote nano,

I played his the most and it was just more fun to me but it

could have been more random to what happens to the stick.

3-3

Why make Caleb a tie breaker he probally has 1 guy he prefers

so he should go ahead and vote.

ok my bad, in that 3-2 i said earlie that included caleb's vote, who was intended to be a tie breaker

so it was actually 2-2

and ive been thinking, since we already know calebs vote, we cant really use him as a tie breaker so ill include his vote

so yes its 3-3

for ease, heres everyones votes:

me-nano
pic-nano
comet (in place of bn2's vote)-pic
nano-pic
razer-nano
caleb-pic

so its 3-3

its open voting now so some1 VOTE!!!!

anyone, PLEASE!!

Lets just go back to the way it was. Pictionary should win since he has been active for the last couple days. Let him set the challenge, I fear too many alterations might kill this thing...

Well I'm still not sure if we're doing a group vote for next challenge or what, but I'll throw out my idea.

Target Hitting

Didn't want to say shooting, because it would give people the wrong idea, just anything that involves targets.

It's pretty cool I got 70 on V2. I'm glad you got the idea that it wasn't only a target "shooting" challenge, and that it just had to do with targets in general.

I've updated the last challenge with all the "complete working" entries I was able to find from these users:

NanoGamez guy
Irojo
pictionaryjr
BN2 Productions
That1Smart Guy


Why was there a community vote? Challenge setter should always pick the winner.

Could everyone do me a favor, in the future when posting a code snippet as an official entry to the challenge, can you put "entry" in bold before the code? It'll make it a lot easier for me and the judge to find all valid entries without having to sort through code that was simply posted in regards to questions.

lol its cool if its a target shooting entry. I was just saying that i didn't want people to only do target shooting games, I wanted them to think outside of the box.

EDIT:
@RazerX
Lol i dont know if its just my computer or not, but it looks like you need to set your sync rate on and set your sync rate to whatever you want, and i normally put cls after sync, because on my comp, i won't see the screen clearing if i do that. I changed it just incase anyone else's computers were like mine.
