    By the way when does the mini competition finish as the 3rd and final part of the Lawnmower Chronicles is still in the R&D stage?
    Well then, it's much further along than my next lawnmowing opus. I barely have a title. I was thinking along the lines of ALS: I Fought The Lawn. :lol:

    Perpetual Lawn (inspired by The Orb's hit of the near-same name) - you have infinite amount of time to mow the infinite garden, but watch out for the magic mushrooms and killer Jah Wobble basslines!

    Lawn to Run - get the grass cut as fast as possible. Subtitled "Mo(w) Farrah's madcap Qualcast fast dash"

    Lawn Slippy? Lawn of Frustration? Grass In Pocket? Ride-on Time?

    Surely there's room for a Lawnmower Deth reference in there somewhere?

    that should be "Mo(w) Farrah's madcap Qualcast fast-ass grass dash". It works better in a Northern accent.

    R-Tape is currently unavailable as he is trying to think of an amusing gardening based pun.

    It doesn't have to be gardening-based - a non-secateur will do.

    Now I got inspired to make a board/strategy game:
    M.O.W.E.R : Multiple Operation Weed Elimination Robot
  • How about a MMORPG: Massively Mowtiplayer Offline Rural Park Gardening.

    Like a flashmob with lawnmowers?

    Or even better, a flashmob with Speccy users playing lawnmowing games.

    Bah!
    There go two of my working titles (I fought the lawn and Flymo to the moon)!

    "non-secateur" - genius!

    Yep, as Rebelstar proved - copyright and originally are VERY important in this CGC :razz:

    Apologies for the lack of notice, a prize is imminent in the CGC.

    Entry number 50, and we all know what a special number that is, so please read the blog post and get coding crapateers!

    ALS lawn simulator is a great game, its only the garish graphics/colour scheme thats a bit off-putting!

    I'm still battling away with it, cant get past the 'rocks and fish pond' level...

    Its genuinely addictive but I aint gonna BREAK and cheat!

    I assume the cup of tea will be delivered in person and not in the post?

    Change of plan:

    The Spirit 50 award.

    I've decided it's unfair to give people a few hours notice and the next one gets a prize. So instead this is now the Spirit 50 award, a prize for the 'best' game in the first 50 entries. There is no voting system, but I would like people to nominate their favourite game either on the blog, on the WOS or CSS forum. In a couple of weeks I will gauge this internet noise, factor in my own bias + the 'it just doesn't sit right factor' and name the prize winner. The 50 games are now in, with 3 still to be reviewed, so getting playing and decide the winner!

    Nonsense! There will be more prizes throughout the year, and the main prize is at the end of the year. This is just a bit of fun remember :smile:

    I've done it now, I'll have to give away my precious tea and favourite Carry on film mug :cry: (I trust Royal Mail not to spill it).
