also i will try to judge the entries soon and then we will all dwell in happy land again
And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then Z2 will start yelling at Quantum
And a new day will dawn 'cause the judging will be on
And the forest will echo with laughter

there are 5 games.
Two are junk entries
One is a joke entry
Two are serious entries
so don't bother judging, the results are
1. Kjorteo
2. Nedemai
3. Dos
4. Stak
5. Otherguy
what about MY entry, dos
It seems unlikely that this deeply unsatisfactory situation will be resolved by a new attempt to answer the old question; instead, as has been suggested by some of the most thoughtful students, we should expect to find that some part of the conceptual landscape in which this problematic entity resides must be reconstructed before it will come into focus.

The main reason why I chose those topics was because I wanted to get away from an "autism" or "n*****" topic; I was trying to do you all a favor. Concerning the other flaws, well it's my first goddamned contest okay? Enough said. Next time I hold a contest (which is somewhat likely because I'm one of a shinking number of people who still cares about ZZT), I'll be far less naive. Again, just leave me alone.

If Nedemai did Fatal Exception, that is the correct order. I forgot how Kjorteo's ninja game fit in with the topics, but I'll assume that it somehow did.
I also assume that Otherguy is Wayne Kerr in disguise.
Well, that's not so much the official results as Dos' prediction of how everyone will do. However, playing all the games (and having made one of them,) I see little reason to believe it won't go down exactly like that, with the possible deviations of Fatal Exception winning and Stak coming in dead last instead of nonde.

<Kjorteo> yes
<gbelo> No no no.
This was a quality entry, which abided to the topic "Fascism" very well and was overall quite well built and fun. Pretty difficult but eh, that's usually another characteristic of a good game.
Nedemai - 2nd Place
You seem to be a promising ZZTer! The plot was a little simple, and the dialogue could have been better, but still it was well done. I commend you!
Dr. Dos - 3rd Place
This game was meant as a joke and was incomplete, but I still liked it a lot. The engine was alright, and you might be able to expand on it sooner or later, who knows? In any case, YOU GET THE BRONZE.
Nondescript - 4th Place
I liked the art, and it's a shame that it was just a board long with no programming or anything. Nothing else to say, really.
Stak - 5th Place *FAIL*
Plz.
So in sum, Kjorteo wins, Stak gets last, and you are all slaves of Jesus. Have a good belated Columbus Day.
I think I'll actually accept the tradition and agree to host the next WoZ. Hosting isn't really my thing, especially because I'm so freaking busy and I much prefer actually making games, but I think I have some ideas that might boost participation a little next time and I don't trust other people to implement them.
First on the agenda!
Holding a WoZ seconds after another WoZ is stupid because everyone's tired of making ZZT games for a while now, but disappearing and then suddenly appearing with "Hey WoZ in two days" is equally bad. Therefore, I am announcing RIGHT NOW that a WoZ is coming in the FUTURE.
Actually, I'm going give exactly one month for people to discuss and come to some sort of agreement on when a good time in (when you kids get your Winter Breaks and stuff.) That doesn't mean that the next WoZ will be in a month. It means that I will announce the date for the next WoZ in a month. The next WoZ will actually happen somewhere around two months from now, but that will change depending on what kind of feedback I get.
Also I need two judges who weren't going to make anything good anyway. If you're competent with ZZT and actually have the time to do so, please compete instead.
Edit: Maybe someone with super mod powers could make this post its own thread and give it a sticky or announcement or something, just so you people know that KJORTEO WOZ IS COMING
