The Scratch Contest 2010!
This is my third scratch contest (the 2010 one!) I've done two before in the past years.
The rules this time are:
There is a gallery (see links below) where you put in projects to enter. Only one per person. When 30 projects are entered total , I will judge the best and give them the prize (please see the prizes area), and you will all see what position you came in from 1st to 30th. You never know, you could win the great prize! In case you think it's an opinion, I don't care what type the project is, I just want to see how people could enjoy it. You can't post the same project if you've ever come in the top 3.
The prizes this time are:
I will give you a trophy sprite you can put on the main menu of your project, or wherever else you like, if you are the big winner! You can see the trophy on the first advertisement project (see the links section below) which is on offer for the winner. Also, you'll be put in the winners gallery, and you'll be allowed to tag or say in the description (notes of the winning project) that you are the winner, but you can't use the trophy anywhere else outside the project, apart from things which advertise it.
The previous winners are:
The 2008 winner was Super Dumb Star Bash by DumbStar16. I think you should see it because it is amazingly programmed, and deserves popularity by its funness (if that is a word). I don't like that type of game, but I still see how good it is through this fact, as explained in the rules section above. To play, see the links section below. The 2009 winner was Desktop 1.0 by AnimalCrossingFan. It is a desktop demo with three applications, and I think out of all the entries that year, that one grabbed my attention, and was fun, and the time it must have took to program was unbelievable.

Don't worry. It's not you; it's the Scratch community. It has always been a little... slow 
Just check back every few days not hours. Don't expect instant gratification from Scratch haha.
By the way, I entered three of my projects feel free to remove the two that you don't care for

I'll definitely get started on mine! When's the due date?
There are 30 places, 22 remain. After 2 days, 8 entries. So I estimate that you have about a week, but it could be a bit less time, or a bit more.

That is nothing to do with this post really, but it's not spam, may I just ask, are you allowed to use the fill feature to colour it in?

My internet's a little funny, so I can't upload it to the Scratch website. But here's my entry, sorry for the inconvenience: http://uploading.com/files/cm3m1a36/Mouser.sb/
That doesn't go to anything for me. Try uploading again. Sometimes it takes my projects four five-minute attempts before they upload themselves.

Re: The Scratch Contest 2010!
I'll enter cube for now, but if I can get cube 2 done before the slots are full, can I enter that instead? Cube is in my signature.

I'll add it for you. If you want to switch to Cube 2 in time, tell me. You can just add it to the gallery, but I'll do it for you.

Good luck to anyone else who's entering!
Thank you! I'll judge it very soon. You are meant to put it in the gallery, as explained, but do not worry, I'll add it for you. That brings it down to 12 places.

If you want to enter Cube 2, I want to warn you you must make it very quickly. In nine days, the contest will end automatically.
