The results are in. My game, Caravan, came in second in a massive four-way tie at five votes, well behind the winner at 11 votes. The winning game, Sorceror's Apprentices, was a neat idea - played on an Othello board, but with a magic contest theme. I certainly think it deserved to win, although it would need a ton more design, detail, and testing to make a fully-realized game, and I think the victory conditions are not workable as written.
I'm curious about the voting - that huge a lead is uncommon, since most folks split up their votes among many entries. I wonder if somebody sent all six of their votes or something like that. The voting is kind of a game by itself.
I'll post the rules to Caravan up here soon. I didn't get a chance to test it; one commenter worried about stalemate, which I was also concerned about, and that would be a very real danger. I think I might give it a try - I've got a hex mat and some poker chips that would work.
