You can also find the full demo set attached. I apologize for not anonymizing the player name, but I wasn't going to be able to replay all 24 demos in a reasonable amount of time. As a bonus you get to see the demo for an extra challenge that the contestant decided not to submit as an official entry.
That post also mentions some guidelines for voting. Don't forget to vote your own entry as a 10 as is the usual custom. Alright, have at it!
for using some kind of arcane magic to make an anonymous set of demos. The old attachment has been removed and replaced with the anonymous set. If you got the download before anonimization took place you can either use your willpower to avoid looking at the names or delete those demos and download the new one. If
should happen to post in this thread somewhere that might be a good spot to dump your excess mod points!
