Well, the end to this contest.
Just as a reminder here's the criteria:
Aetherflame_Lord
by: Lord_Agamemnon(MM)
Glitchyness: 5/5
I didn't see a single glitch, crash, or fail.
Complexity: 10/10
9/10ths of the features completely blew my mind, I didn't have the slightest clue as to how most of it worked, this was very very complex.
Content: 15/15
Extensive iscript editing, extensive grafting, extensive .DAT editing, you didn't get a new .GRP, but you still did an excellent job of putting the dark archon turret on a regular archon body.
Originality: 10/10
This was completely new, I have never seen anything like this
Fun: 20/20
I sat at my computer playing with this unit for 45 minutes before I had to pry myself off. While I didn't get to try it against a real enemy, this was amazingly fun.
Theme: 8/10
The majority of the spells and abilities fit very well, although the stim pack spell did seem rather out of place
Total: 68/70
1st Place
Due to the lack of participation, Lord_Agamemnon(MM) wins The Entire Pot
3,298 Minerals
You deserved to win the whole pot, not only for the kickass unit, but for the intuition to participate in a whole new idea of contest. Enjoy your minerals!
This was a doozy, we had one amazing entry, the part I'm worried about, is the 'one'. What could've gone wrong here? Was it a lack of my reputation? Was it that there wasn't enough time? Were there insufficient rewards? Fear of a new kind of contest? Fear of Lord_Agamemnon(MM)'s entry? I'm going to need some ideas for how to make the next one, if there is a next one - go better.
Just as a reminder here's the criteria:

Seriously, people, I was the only entrant? That kind of surprises me...but hey, I get ~4000 mins, so I'm not complaining

That is a lot of minerals, if I may say. Is it because others didn't enter? or was their mods just not good enough to be considered a serious mod? in either of the cases i would of either split the pot or canceled the contest. Good job Lord ( you probably have no clue who I am, but go SEN spirit go 
)

Noone else entered, by entering I mean, noone else sent me a mod.
I'd say you won closer to 3,000, seeing as how it was close to 3500, 500 of which was donated by you.

You probably should of just split the pot and gave a little to him and saved the rest for the next contest, assuming there would be a next one. Or just called it off.

A won contest is a won contest, he deserved his minerals.
I probably would've participated if I wasn't the judge.
You sure spent your minerals fast... That's more then I've earned since I arrived at SEN, that's why I have no name effects

Woah, looking at his avatar -- that is a REALLY sexy Archon ( is going to try the mod sometime soon )
I guess I agree to your logic to some extent, but a contest won without opponents isn't really a contest.

And you should see the mod! I could do that image in 5 minutes. The mod... maybe not.
