Hi everybody!

I finally drafted up the rules for the new Ludum Dare, inclusive of the separate Compo and Jam plans. You can read them here:

This is your last chance to comment on them, make suggestions, and critique my grammar. I’d like this set in stone for Monday, so act now!

Also, Phil made some big improvements to the submission and voting system. You can help us test it by creating submissions for this fake competition:

Some time Sunday afternoon we’ll switch things over to voting, so stay tuned for that.

I’ve been evaluating some new wordpress total conversion plugins, so we’ll be putting off the site redesign for now. We didn’t get much response from our request for a web designer, but a nod to lulzapricot for doing some mockups. We may try some little things here this week, but consider the current layouts days numbered. And just a heads up, we might be breaking the RSS feed URL soon.

Also, we are aware Wiki is being constantly attacked by spambots. One of the wordpress plugins I’m evaluating (a stripped down BuddyPress) should let us gut it entirely, and add some wiki functionality to the site itself. I’m liking it, but the question is how difficult it will be to migrate everything over.

That’s all for now. As always, post your thoughts in the comments.
