My rankings, from favorite to least favorite:

Jakub Wasilewski - It's just plain fun and polished
Kikaru - He took a chance and made something odd, and I appreciate that more than doing what's already been done, even if it's done well
Zaphos - Not an enormous amount on the originality side, but well-executed
BAF - Pong. Not good, not bad. Just Pong.
CGamesPlay - You can move, and moving feels pretty cool, but the illusion breaks down when you fly straight over the neat-looking asteroids. And I would rather be able to shoot stuff than have neat-looking asteroids, too...
GrantG - The paddle was impossible to see, it moved too fast on my computer, why waste an hour almost making Breakout, anyways? It's already been done to death.
Onewing - Anywhere else, I would probably remark about how neat it is, but for an hour's work, I would rather be able to do something, anything, than see all the cool tech demos in the world.
Simon Parzer - Looks neat, but there's nothing to do!

As you can tell, after the Independent Games Summit at GDC, I am infused with indie fury. I yell "Innovation!" as my battle cry as I wage war against publishers. But, whatever, those are my votes and I'm sticking to them.

Edit: Well, after seeing that voting Kikaru that high up wasn't as insane as I originally thought, I'm going to go with my original ranking from my sticky...
/switch

Here's my ranking:

• Jakub -- very fun, with great presentation!

• Kibiz0r -- interesting -- even though it's broken, there's a fair amount that does work ... and I like the little ascii man.

• Kikaru -- interesting concept, but too chaotic? But still, basically complete.

• BAF -- The basic game is there, but without a way to change the spin or angle or speed of the ball, it's all a bit silly ...

• GrantG -- Same as BAF's ... but without a timer to control game speed.

• CGamesPlay -- Nice graphics; wish shooting were there. Seems technically interesting.

• Simon -- Nice graphics; wish shooting were there.

• Onewing -- Fun utility -- though I wish you'd thought of the stretch_blit trick during the comp.

edit: decided to prioritize gameplay a bit more ... it's tricky to rank these games.

Wow, I wouldn't have thought that my movement, which I considered mundane, would be the highlight of my entry

Waiting on votes from Onewing and GrantG!

OK, I'll win the next one (unless they pick some ridiculous time).

I'm back! Time to vote:

(From Best to Not Best)
Jakub Wasilewski - Simple, addicting and well done. Just the way I like it cooked!
Zaphos - C snakes are apparently slow.
BAF - Everything feels and looks pretty good, but the AI continually pwng'ed me.
Kikaru - It's madness! I did like wall-bouncing however, even if that made me invincible.
Kibiz0r - Watch out for the seizure numbers! Seriously, is that all I'm supposed to do?
GrantG - Functional, although blazing fast and hard to see.
Simon Parzer - Intended to be a Duck Hunt? I just saw things fly by but I couldn't figure out what to do with them...
CGamesPlay - No worky. I see somethings but nothing happens.

It crashes when I press space

Not a bug. I still need to do some work on it. The end result should be better.

Is it just me, or has everyone voted now?

Not quite. BAF needs to rank Kikaru's entry. Here's what I have to far:

[edit]
Added Onewing's and GrantG's.

Kikaru, you should revise the entry with better timing.

Oddly enough, I'm having fun dumping all the bitmap images in My Pictures to my program seeing what results I get.

This was a great MH, lots of people, great rule, etc.

Huh? What 'timing' are you referring to?

Hmm... any idea why?

I used standard Allegro interrupt handler timing, and rest(1) within the waiting loops for less CPU usage. Did you have anything with flash in it running in the background?

What should I do instead?

Tried install_int_ex, and it goes crazy fast. Maybe something to do with that?

[EDIT]
found out why that was acting that way. Maybe replace install_int(update_timer, 1) with install_int_ex(update_timer, MSEC_TO_TIMER(1));?

install_int_ex(blah, BPS_TO_TIMER(x));

I used x=60 in my entry.
