It's official! The First Ever (And Maybe The Only) IF Mini-Competition
(TFE(AMTO)IFM-C) has begun! Grab the premise (premise.txt in this
directory) and have at! Here's the rough schedule of events:

    May 19th: Premise posted and uploaded; those lucky few with fast
      feeds start work early.

    May 20th: Contest officially begins.

    May 20th-June20th: IF authors around the globe frantically work on
      their (short) masterpieces, based on said premise.

    June 20th: Contest sumission deadline. Authors must submit game
      file and source code (any authoring system will do) to me by this
      date. Authors can either:
        E-mail me ([email protected]), attaching the game.
        E-mail me and tell me where to find it.
        E-mail me and ask me where to upload it.
        E-mail me and explain that they don't have e-mail access, and
          could they please make other arrangements?

    June 22nd or thereabouts: All game files uploaded to gmd, probably
      to reside in the ftp://ftp.gmd.de/if- archive/games/mini-comp/
      directory.

    June 22nd - July 22nd: Leigons of adoring fans play the resulting
      masterworks, e-mailing me with their favorites and write-ins.

    July 22nd or thereabouts: Voting ends.

    Some time after that: Winners announced, source code uploaded to
      gmd, a tired lpsmith goes to bed.
