was anybody else really surprised about the rankings?

We had picked Nine Times as the most likely to win but nobody I had talked to expected Warm & Soft to be so low (or Sausage King to nearly win).

I still can't believe A Fry Cook On Venus scored so low, either.

My oh my! I have ideas for all of the themes written down on my black board -- all of them except Nine Times that is :( This will be harder than I thought.

I had a feeling sausage king would be pretty high, but nine times? Dang, that's such an obscure theme, this is going to be tricky.

Oh man, I was totally stoked to write a game about a team of morticians cleaning up after a zombie outbreak :-)

Honestly, I'm excited enough about my CBM idea I'm gonna try to get it done post-pyweek =)

Would have pegged "Warm and soft" above "A fry cook on Venus", but other that that, pretty much what we predicted.

I'm happy that "Nine times" made it - it's a theme which might inform game design, which I had no idea how to do for "Sausage king".

I'm trying to think of something. So far I've gone down the path of "nine times out of ten" which led me to "it's almost always" and one of the top Google auto-completes for that phrase is "it's almost always the wrong response". I know there's a game in there somewhere.

I'm just struggling to come up with something concrete.

For some reason, the outcome always seems to be surprising.
