Just got up, so missed all the build-up.
Congratulationss to Poncho and Jazzem, the Braid review was my favourite of the lot as well.I was dieing to ask Eighthours where the 'occasional punctuation spazz-out' was though in the are videogames art article, because I have no idea...kinda obviously.

Holy cow, I wasn't expecting my entry to be so well received! A big thanks to everyone who voted for it, as well as AI for running the competition (And making checking the forum during a computing lecture very painful with the whole system breakdown thing ) and the folks who gave me feedback. And of course well done to Poncho and all the other entrants 
There were some cracking pieces entered and I really enjoyed reading them. Here's to next year's GRWC!
