First of all, congratulations to enigma and DWaM.

...Red is overrated.
The trial's poor, the presentation due to the deadline, but the majority of it due to the fact that I kinda lost the focus of the case during planning. I wanted a good enough crime, and then focus on the characters. Then I got obsessed with making the crime "good enough" so that it wouldn't be too easy, and eventually everything got convoluted and collapsed in on itself, as well as leaving no room for the characters in the way I wanted there to be. Hell, the crime was even made the wrong way around, with what the player knows being done first, and the rest designed around that.
I'm not going to get too worked up about it - it doesn't even break 3,000 frames yet, which isn't really something that requires a massive amount of work - but I'm fairly sure that the case got a worse reaction from one of the judges than a certain livesteam they made of another case did.
Some of the issues are because I was going to rush it for the comp., and if I hadn't, maybe a couple would be fixed. I actually wasn't sure whether I wanted to submit it or not, but in some twisted way I glad I ended up doing so because now I know for sure not to release it yet. In fact, if this competition hadn't existed, then I probably wouldn't have aimed to make something less than 4,000 frames, and the bad qualities of this would've leaked over to some other case with even more frames.
So yes, time to revamp.
200th post get.

Re: Short and Sweet
I didn't really expect to get second, that's awesome! Yeah, the ending lobby scene definitely needed more time. I did that with like two hours left 'till deadline and honestly I could have worked longer on that but KK was kinda rushing me at that point 'cause he really seemed really worried I wouldn't get it done in time... But yeah at that point I just really wanted to make sure it was all over with.
Also I wouldn't mind co-hosting. If that's not something you wanna do, I could compromise by giving him the theme idea I had in mind.

Re: Short and Sweet
Zeel, it would be a pleasure to cohost with you (assuming the judges allow it but, hell, I don't see why they wouldn't.) I do have quite a few comp theme ideas rattling around, myself, so I figure we should probably chat sometime and see what we end up with.

@ DWaM, enigma, Zeel:
An enigma/Zeel hosting duo is perfectly allowed.
@ DragonTrainer:
Sure! First priority is getting back to Gamer on Angela Light, however.
@ Spyromed:
I'd say you're being too critical of yourself. Good luck on the rewrite!

Just a note to say that me and Zeel have chosen a doozy of a theme and the new comp will be up tomorrow.
