I can't believe I forgot to make a blog about this but the Deep Sleep Initiative took home a trophy for being voted as the runner up in both the Audience Choice and Finalist Choice categories!
We were really, really surprised! They had us come up to the mic to accept the award and I just kept blubbering, "thank you!" I think Tracy said something a little more articulate but what it was I'm not sure. It took a while for the shock to wear off.
I've never won anything (or in this case, was the runner up) or received a trophy before. And the trophy is HUGE! And HEAVY! And DANGEROUS! All qualities that should be mandatory in trophies in my opinion.
Then the articles started rolling in. I never thought I'd see my name in an article that wasn't written by myself or my friends but there it was! It was pretty awesome. I'm still waiting for someone to yell out, "just kidding!" and take it all down and come and confiscate my trophy.
I wanted to share with you some of the articles. Some of them are about our game but a lot of them are just about how people like us and think we're neat! For someone who only had one person show up to her 12th birthday party and has been a total pathetic geek her entire life, it really meant the world to me. So, thanks to everyone who thinks we're neat and took the time to write us an email or write an article about our game. It means a lot.
Ok, ok, enough mumbling, here's the links!
