Email sent to Lithium, who is next up to pick a prize, and to SynthMaker so Xavier can collect his software.

Must say I'm surprised at what people are choosing. Some fantastic prizes that I was sure would disappear right away are still available! I suppose it all depends on what each dev has already and what kind of music they enjoy making. That and the incredible generosity of the prize donors -- yes, I do keep going on about that, but their outpouring of support for independent developers genuinely amazes me.

My short list is down to one option now..

Ah, sorry to hear that. Hope it remains unchosen by others until your turn. There's still some amazing software up for grabs, including some top-notch technology that, were I a dev who deserved a prize, I'd love to lay paws on. (No, that's not a hint or a plea for freebies; I need nothing past what I have now. :-})

Hey Meffy... I'll choose the Skint Records Goodie Bag.

Thanks for all the hard work,
Lithium

All reet! You're entirely welcome -- it's yours with compliments. I'll send spacedad your email address and the two of you can arrange the rest.

One email sent to ianfoxfire, from mephit to vulpine.

I take one of the True Piano licenses available, if that's ok ofc.

Sorry, your turn isn't here yet. If one is left when it does arrive, it's yours, but there are quite a few still to pick.

However, I was glad to hear that a pleasant (non-DC-related) surprise is now on the way to you. :-}

Anyone who thinks they might not be able to be at KVR when your turn comes, please email a list of your choices to me as close as possible to when you'll be able to choose. Ideally this would list in order (favorite first) as many prizes as there are people before you in the list when you send me your message, plus one. That way you're sure to get one of them.

Jobro talk about jumping the queue dude!

Sorry didn't know that. Allright then. I was a bit redundant.

c'mon IAN we don't want to get old on this....

Meffy · Post by **Meffy** » Sat Aug 09, 2008 2:22 am

Well, I got a PM from Ian saying he would pass on the prize. I asked whether he was sure, but after a couple hours haven't got a reply so I'll assume he doesn't want me second-guessing his decision. Still and all: Ian, with all the hard work you put in you've earned a prize... but I'll honor your wishes. If you change your mind, please feel free to step back in at any time. The table is yours to choose from.

For now, the baton passes to Duncan Parsons of betabugs. He's already contacted me via PM to say his first choice is Audiomulch. I'll try to make the arrangements quickly but can't be sure they'll be complete by the time he heads out for some travel.

[edit: I hope I've got this right; Multree is also involved in this project, and I might be wrong about who is to get this prize draw. For now let's consider the Audiomulch prize to be tentatively taken. I'll contact Mully and Duncan by PM to be sure I'm not doing an injustice to either. My apologies for being thick-headed about this; I'm not terribly smart in the first place, and things are a mite hectic with my work... not to mention the prize distribution.]

Next up is xoxos!

I'll probably hit the sack* soon, but of course will check in first thing in the morning (US Eastern time zone).

Okay, we're all set. Multree deserves a prize too, IMO, but he says Duncan should get the goodies for Duckling and so it shall be.

Now, at last, it is indeed time for Rurik to pick a prize.

DC2007 Prize Distribution... FINISHED! Thank you one and all
