re: Does X count?

Sure. But you're asking me like I have some authority over this :)

Who decides whether you get a medal or not? You do.

All you have to worry about it whether everybody will think less of
you for claiming medals that you didn't earn.  If you think you did a
reasonable job and deserve to claim the medal, go for it.

Well if it does I've just gained an extra award since I have every intention of
publishing through them... (as you can see here:
http://whirlygamechef.blogspot.com/2009/08/what-goes-around.html)

I'm also curious, if I have rules on the board, and an instruction booklet 4 or
less pages in length, does that count for the brevity award?

Cheers,

Declan

playing pieces, special cards, and other game components, does that count for

Yeah, I definitely thing artists could team up with designers for the
Save Water Award.

Sorry for misleading you about the art thing.  I said there was going
to be some art component because I was originally intending for the
ingredients to simply be the icons, without the associated words, so
that designers could interpret the icons however they liked (the icons
would be art to be interpreted, basically), but I talked with some
secret advisers and they convinced me otherwise.

Yes, Game Chef has not traditionally had a fully art-based component.
Last year was really different.  There might be art in the future,
though.  And, honestly, if you can't find a designer that you're
excited about working with, let me know and maybe we can make a bonus
level based on a piece of art or something.  If you're really excited
about participating, I'm sure we can work something out.

Oh -- my bad.  I thought "artist" was a fancy-pants euphemism for "game designer."

FWIW, I agree with Kynn re: art.

In my opinion, expecting Game Chef to continue to be art-inclusive -- as it was last year -- is a bad notion, and it's not a good idea to take last year's inclusion of artwork as a precedent.  The first seven Game Chef events did not have any special way for artists to participate; 2008 was the exception. I don't think artists should expect that future Game Chef events will necessarily be artwork-focused, but rather game-design focused as all previous GCs have been.

There are some mysterious icons floating around the site, but the
ingredients haven't been formally announced yet.  I'll definitely post
an update to this list when the announcement happens.

Jonathan, still hurriedly designing more icons...

The site looks awesome. Thanks for adding order and reason to this annual event. I like the absence of forums. A lot.

Hey Folks,

The new website for Game Chef 2009 is now live, including details on
how to participate in the social, community aspects of the challenge.
The actual theme, ingredients, and submission guidelines will be
posted late tomorrow night, when the contest gets fully under weigh,
though there are some hits in the new site design.

http://gamechef.wordpress.com/

Enjoy and feel free to ask any questions here or, better yet, in the
comments on the website where everyone can see them.

Best,
Jonathan

Is there going to be a tap-in thread or something? Should I be looking at the web site now?

Tap-in also starts this weekend.  They'll be announcements, don't worry.

This coming weekend is just to familiarize folks with the structure
and setup.  The big weekend for writing, I imagine, will be the
weekend after, as folks scramble to make the first deadline.

The ingredients and theme won't be released until late Sunday night.
This coming weekend is just to familiarize folks with the structure
and setup.  The big weekend for writing, I imagine, will be the
weekend after, as folks scramble to make the first deadline.

I might be coming out of retirement to muck about with this, if the stars are right. Been a long time dead but dreaming. 

Will we have enough to begin work on Saturday? I might clear my weekend schedule if so.

Yes, there will be a visual element. No, it will not be like the
Artist First thing last year.

Yes, there will be a theme and ingredients and a gimmick. What I can
tell you so far about the gimmick is that there will be a number of
"medals" awarded for achieving various things with your game design,
like there are in certain console games. And judging as we know it
will be entirely different.

The rest you will discover shortly!

Jonathan
