Just finished playing all of the 2003 IF Comp games. More or less. There were several I did not play to completion because I just couldn't bring myself to try them any longer than I did. I also managed to get all 30 pics matched up on the Competition 2003 Drawings page, though with 3 of them I had to guess because I didn't get far enough into the game to see the relevant scene.

J. Robinson Wheeler put together this gallery of images inspired by all of the IF comp games of 2003 (including my entry, Scavenger). Excellent work! The best thing is how many of the picture reflect the tone of their matching game. I've played 13 so far, so I've only been able to match about half of the pics at this point.

A new email virus going around, this one even worse than "SoBig" because it masks itself as a Microsoft update, and gullible morons, believing anything that even looks official, readily double-click the attachment and spread the love. It's trying to spread to me at a rate of about 300+ emails a day, each of them around 150KB in size. Thanks, all you idiots out there.
