And the winner is....
jclef, with his module Grimm Brigade!
The module had some great writing, area designs and a very original concept. If you haven't played it already, I highly suggest it and all of the other mod contest modules.
Thanks to all those that participated. We had a great time judging this contest and playing all the modules.
Stay tuned for a new contest kicking off in the very near future!

Congratulations 
Rob, is there any low down on general thoughts from the team on the various mods? I know we would all appreciate some feedback.

Please make sure you tell me which module you made.

I uh - holy cow!
I'm not one for speeches, to be honest. Likely because I've never won anything this substantial before!
First, I will start with the fact that All of the modules submitted for this contest contain a worthy experience for All players. I've played most of them myself and I knew it would be a difficult decision for the judges!
When the contest arrived, I went to work right away. My biggest concern was the fun-factor. I had to make something that I myself didn't want to put down until it was completed.
The limitations set by the judges were a great thing. The boundaries forced a comfy and confined area to work with. And building with the toolset was just awesome - I mean, this tool has the ability to encompass all forms of creative art (music, drawing, writing, etc...)!
Thank you Obsidian!
Thank you Community!
Happy Gaming to you All!

I was going to give him Feargus' car, but he caught me.

I played through all of them and I completely agree with this. Grimm Brigade was really the best one. I would not agree with saying that all of the contest entries were worth playing, though. Some weren't so hot, but Grimm Brigade was fun. |

Rob,
I think it'd be really nice if Obsidian would release a top-3 or top-5 list, based on your internal rankings. It might help highlight some of the other meritorious entries, which might better help encourage players to check out these modules. Grimm Brigade was a fine module, but it wasn't the only good one!
Maybe give out a gold, silver, and bronze award? This is not uncommon among contests like this that have been held in the past (e.g. bioware writing contest, vault mod of the year, etc).
