'Grats! :D
Woo-hoo! Way to go Matt (Goodall), and congrats to everybody who entered in RPG Superstar.
CONGRATS!
Congrats Matt! I was hoping you'd be chosen and you were. (Although I'd be happy if ANY of the final four got it).
I can't wait for this one, but I guess I'll have to huh?
Looking forward to it and the "peek" at Jalmeray and Vudra we'll have in less than a year.
Regards,
Dean (TMW)
Good Job to all this years contestants and Congrats to Matt for taking home the big prize!
Great job, Matt! Enjoy the ride from here on out. Because the fun doesn't stop here.
Well done mate.
Congrats Matt!
Altho my criticism of this years final 2 rounds was fairly harsh, i obviously couldn't have done any better, and i'm actually looking forward to see how closely the finished module resembles your proposal 10 months from now.
And altho i didn't even make top 32 this year, i feel slightly vindicated that the guy i voted for won the whole thing.
Enjoy it man, you earned it.
Thank you all, and congratulations to the other three of the top four, the top 32, and everyone who entered!
This really has to be good for the game!
This really has to be good for the game!
Remember that when you get involved next year! And help pass the experience on...
But, for now...take a deep breath and enjoy the win. You deserve it.
Congrats, Matt! Since I voted for you, I think I can say, Keep working on the name. ;)
Nice going Matt! Will be patiently, yet eagerly, awaiting your published adventure.
way to go Matt, now get to work!
Sounds all Thuggee in India and I'm all over it! Nice.
YEP.
Congrats to all, and to Matt for taking the golden egg!
Awesome job to all the 2010 RPG Superstars and a special congratulations to Matt for the big win! Looking forward to possibly playing this in the future with my gaming group :)
Well done one and all! Congrats to Matt for his first-place finish.
Well done and
Nice job to the other Matt, Alexander and Jim, and all the top 32. Been a fun quarter!
Remember that when you get involved next year! And help pass the experience on...But, for now...take a deep breath and enjoy the win. You deserve it.
Thanks Neil, I was very happy to get your vote.
I do want to do the same things for future contestants that you have done for me and everyone else in Top 32. Your advice to the Top 32, incredibly useful! I don’t know if I can write as verbosely as yourself (or end each post with ‘But that is my two cents’ :-) but I will endeavour to pass what I have learned on.Things I can think of at the moment:
- Take time off work, get as many hours to do each task as you can. You will need them!
- You can always do with another round of proofreading, because you will find errors/corrections/better ways of writing things. Especially in the rounds with longer word counts.
- Get other people to proofread, the more the better. Find people who are good with the English language and get them to check your grammar, find gamers to check your rules stuff. Non gamers help as well because they will point out what sounds good, unbiased by game knowledge.
- Find your process. This means work out what works for you to get the job done. For me, I avoided caffeine after finding that it just wired me up and made it harder to work not easier. I realised that that the natural drug - adrenaline was all I needed to work late into the night. :-)
- And yes, you will probably need to work close to the deadline on every task, but get it in at least an hour or two before the deadline, because technology can fail.
Hope that helps,
Matt
Congratulations, Matt!
Congratulations! :D
Congratulations Matt!! Even though I changed my vote from yours to Jim's, I was still torn. You had an excellent proposal and I'm very happy for you that you won.
Congratulations too to the 3 second place finishers - all of you accomplished a lot and have a lot to be proud of!
Congrats, Matt! You got my vote and I'm really looking forward to seeing what you and the Paizoians cook up.
Congratulations on the win! I'm looking forward to seeing high adventure in a Vudran setting.
Congratulations, Matt. :)
Well done!
I didn't realize just how difficult the contest was until I followed it closely this year. Close competition with a lot of talented people.
Truly an achievement to be proud of!
congratulations Matt
Congratulations, Matt!
Kick ass, dude. :D
Congratulations dude!
I voted for Matt Goodall to win, so CONGRATULATIONS!!
But I fully expect to see writing credits from all 4 of the finalists in Paizo products Real Soon Now.
Congrats, Matt!
