For those that prefer to know the winners written (instead of being forced to hear the podcast for the results) :

Campaign Contest winners :
1st place : StarCraft: Vile Egression by Laconius
2nd place : Echoes by Tipereth
3rd place : Celestial Reverie: The Sweet Science by Desler

Scenario Contest winner :
Strange World by Matic

All three judges (being Lavarinth, Dread and myself, Ricky_Honejasi) have reached this agreement for the winners over a long discussion.

Did you guys by any chance give the other campaigns a rating?  If so, can you post them here?

Ricky's logs are the best source for such information. We purposely didn't list placement for all projects because do not want to encourage negativity and discourage the creation of projects. If there's one thing I can say is most of the projects were well done. Some of them were the first campaigns by a few, others have gone through multiple, but they were all a great step towards learning the process to craft something. Perhaps in time we'll list our personal reflections on the campaigns, but that is up to the judges themselves.

Congratulations to all the winners! I think they deserve the win.

Now, I wonder if we could get a more compressed version of the winning entries. Like, 300mb is kinda heavy? Anyway, I think guests and fans out there, including myself, would appreciate much if the entries had light versions, or ones with smaller file sizes. Is that possible?

300mb is like a fifteen minute dl for most DSL and Cable providers.

Leave it run overnight?

Gna isn't from North America, it takes longer to download.

Also, you're implying that only North America has decent cable/DSL, which is not the case; pretty much everyone but Australia does, and Australia could still download those.

Would someone be so kind to provide download links to these awesome campaigns? I would like to replay them, but I could only download the Vile Egression, and for the other campaigns the download links are seemingly long dead. :(
