S226: "Looking more closely, you see cables going from the various bins into
the wall just below the lever."
S227: "All the games have blurbs on them. I'm afraid you'll have to be more
specific (or just 'READ <game>')."
S228: "
A piece of paper is tacked to one wall, with instructions."
S229: ""To find out about a particular system (like Inform) just type 'READ AN
INFORM GAME' (The same will work with TADS, AGT, and the rest of the game types
in this competition.)""
S230: "It's a Big Red Button Which, If You Push It, Will Make You Do Everything
You Really Need To Do Automatically. What more do you want to know?"
S231: "Inside the bins are representations of the various games in this
contest. You can examine an individual game to get basic information about it,
and to find out what rating you've given it. If you would like more detailed
information, you can 'READ THE BLURB ON <game>' or simply 'READ <game>'. The
blurb will give you the title and subtitle of the game, the directory where you
can find it, and information about the interpreter(s) you can use to play it."
S232: "When all of the games are sorted into either the 'playable' or
'unplayable' bin, the light will turn green, and you can pull the lever. This
will cause a rack to rotate into the room, and all of the games from the
'playable' bin will be moved to this rack, sorted in a random order. If you
find you have made a mistake, or wish to re-sort your games, pull the lever
again, and it will deposit the games from the rack back into the 'playable'
bin, where you can re-arrange them."
S233: "The rack, when it appears, will hold all the games you indicated you
could play, in a random order. A game must be inside the rack before you can
rate it, which you can do by typing 'RATE <game> <number>', where <number> is a
number (integer) between one and ten. The idea here is that you play the first
game on your list first, then the next, and so on, until you either finish or
run out of time. You can rate as you go, or wait until you finish and rate them
then. You can always change your old ratings, and the program will not insist
on you rating them in order (though it will comment on it).

(The formatting is based on a fixed-width font, and assumes a screen width at
least a few characters wider than the longest game name. I apologize if it
looks bad on your interpreter.)"
S234: "The buttons will (theoretically) output to a text file your list of
games and ratings. The square button will save a list of just the games you've
rated, while the round button will save the entire list, in the same order as
is listed in the rack. It may not get good results on all interpreters, but I
think I've worked out the major bugs. If it doesn't work for you, I'd recommend
turning scripting on, examining the rack, then turning scripting off again.
('SCRIPT ON. EXAMINE RACK. SCRIPT OFF'). If your interpreter prompts you for a
file name, then that's the file your list will turn up under. If it doesn't, it
either didn't work, or turned up in the file "rating.txt"  At any rate, if it
works, you can use this file to mail to the vote collector, if you wish."
S235: "This really needs no extensive documentation, as it does precisely what
its title implies. You can think of it as an automatic 'walkthrough' for this
game. All the typed commands you see yourself executing would actually work if
you typed them yourself. The first, 'GET ALL GAMES FROM EVERYWHERE' is
hardwired into this game, and can be shortened to 'GET ALL GAMES' or even 'GET
ALL' (since the games are the only objects around you need to carry.)"
S236: "Once all the games are sorted, you may refer to the first game on the
list which you haven't rated as 'next', as in EXAMINE NEXT or RATE NEXT. This
is a convenience so you don't have to look at the rack each time you want to
figure out which game is next on the docket."
S237: "October 20, 1996 - Votes will begin to be accepted at:
[e-mail]

November 30, 1996 - The voting account will close. No further votes will be
accepted after midnight on this date. (Midnight for the person whose account
this is. Save yourself grief and vote early.)

December 1-5, 1996 - The winners of the competition will be announced at
various places of interest on the internet."
S238: " The Judging system this year was debated at large, and it was finally
decided that this game would indeed be official. Whizzard hasn't published a
revised Judging section yet, but as far as I can tell, it will be the same as
last year, with the exception that partial judging entries are allowable. This
still means that if you can by any means judge all the games, you should do so.
But if you can't, you should judge them in a randomized order, whether through
this game or in some other manner. In any case, please judge as many as you
can, so that we will have statistically significant results.

Betatesters may vote in the main competition this year, unlike last year. There
are currently no plans for a MISS CONGENIALITY award for votes from game
authors, but there have been rumors of a desire for one amongst some of us.
Presumably, once we have an official vote counter, we could bug them to collate
separate MISS CONGENIALITY votes, or we can organize one ourselves. Bugging
Whizzard about it is probably NOT the way to go, since he's tired, overworked,
and cranky ;-)"
S239: "In brief:  it doesn't, not really. I intended this game as a tool,
nothing more. If you don't like it, push the Big Red Button and quit. If you do
like it, use it as a scratchpad to record your ratings and print them out. Use
it to find where the odd interpreters reside on the archive, or to find out if
your platform has a new interpreter somewhere. If you absolutely hate it,
either rate all the games or find another way to choose which games to play
first. Any option will work."
S240: "Greetings! This is Release 1 (the first official release) of my very
first Inform game. Of course, it's not much of a game, per se, but it did teach
me a lot about Inform. There's still a lot more features I'd like to add to
this, but I've been working on my actual Competition game so much none of the
following have been implemented. Still, hope springs eternal.

The features I'd like to add:

-A helpful janitor, who could interact with you, ask you questions about how
you wanted things set up, and who would set things up for you if you didn't
want to do them yourself. He'd also be able to answer questions you had about
parts of the game.

-A rate-o-meter, an optional item you could use to help you rate the games, by
giving it levels of how much you liked the plot, characters, coding, puzzles,
etc.

-A way of recording one- or two-line sentences about your feelings on each
game, for later reference.

If you have comments, bug reports, ideas, whatever, feel free to contact me at:

Enjoy!"
