Haha, talk about an immersion killer.

I can just imagine Data's bearded face screaming at me like he's run into Emotion chip troubles.

Talking of which...did you even invent a creature, Data?

I submitted one for you Data, but I think it was so hideous, Erik pulled it from the forum and gave me a formal warning to never do this again! (Just kidding; he did not do that). [:D]

I'd rather have a DW Trilogy so I can actually see my creation if I won haha.
But Runnerups should get something nice too.

Hi everyone,

We're running a bit late so we've decided to make the formal announcement over the weekend, with the additional screenshots, feature information on characters, etc. However, I'll post a few preview screenshots here this evening along with a few details on characters and also informally announce the winner of the creature contest. The official announcement should be posted tomorrow or Sunday.

Regards,

- Erik
