Hello all,
As I am not sure whether you are aware of the following fact, I would like to announce you that Push'n'Pop's administrators took the initiative to organize the CPC charts for 2011.
The following message was posted by Toms:
CPC charts are back! You can submit yours by filling this form and send it to me (you have to be registered on Push'n'Pop). Suspense is at the top!

(EDIT: It turns out intros & single effect shows are also counted (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/www.pushnpop.net/topic-315-1.html) - 4th post down - so that means even NYANCAT is one of the Top 5 demos of 2011... how embarrassing!!! No offence to demoniak or McKlain!)

Other than that, nothing exciting was released last year; just BATMAN FOREVER, EDGE GRINDER & BB4CPC.
Seems almost pointless to vote... so I won't.
- JTMS...
I think Uwol 2, Hora Bruja and Sub-Hunter also are from 2011. I supose that The Prayer of the Warrior doesnt count !

Errr... this
was released this year, no?

But, in future, sack your musician... he's crap! And he stole a tune from a respected C64 composer!
Bah! ^_^
EDIT1a: Also, this one too - http://www.cpc-power.com/index.php?page=detail&onglet=dsk&num=7110 (http://www.cpc-power.com/index.php?page=detail&onglet=dsk&num=7110)
EDIT1b: And one more I forgot - http://www.cpc-power.com/cpcdemos/index.php?page=detail&num=1783 (http://www.cpc-power.com/cpcdemos/index.php?page=detail&num=1783)
EDIT2:
It will be interesting to see the final results on P'n'P when the voting is finished; I would like to see how the native demoscene views itself after a year of near-silence. Will they acknowledge the large number of active external demosceners or keep the votes "inhouse"?EDIT3:
Just as predicted - http://www.pushnpop.net/articles-69.html (http://www.pushnpop.net/articles-69.html) - Amstrad ENDS!

It pains to admit, but you were right. Voting was pointless and the results are mind-numbing.
The categories partially are not clearly defined. NoRecess did code a lot of Tools and supported them with bug fixes. By my account that's worth a lot.
Besides, how should I vote for top coder when I don't even know everyone's code quality. Did they expect me to disassemble the lot of demos for weeks on end?
From the PUSH'N'POP charts results comment box.
Quote from: RhinoI hope and wish that 2012 will be another great year for the CPC scene with great productions, taking into account that will be the release year of the new demo from the best qualified CPC coder. No doubt about CPC once again will prove to be the best 8-bit computer. :)
(highlighted the important part)
Wow, the best coder of 2011 hinting at a new release for 2012? I fecking-well hope so!
Maybe there's some hope for out little machine after all!
