With Jakub MIA and no word on ChristmasHack, I've decided to create SantaHack to carry on the tradition. The site is just something I threw together in a few hours (major shout out to Mark Oates for doing the graphics/design work), so let me know if you have any issues. There is still some tweaking and work to be done on the site, but it should be more than functional enough right now for registration. Registration will begin tomorrow. Please be sure to get all set up and get your wishlist/preferences in before the voting phase begins. Once registration opens, you'll be able to join and withdraw (on the participants page). You will need to log in with your Allegro.cc account to use the site (just click the login button, and a.cc will handle the rest) - no registration necessary. If anyone has any comments or suggestions on the site or rules or anything, let me know. I'm open to change. |

I wasn't expecting for a *Hack to happen this year since Jakub is no longer able to organize ChristmasHack. And with family coming for Christmas I don't know how much time I'll have to code. But, hey! It's an all new SantaHack! Count me in!.

Nice work on the site. But it seems I'm gonna be busy until the 22nd to start working on something. Damn finals. Still, that leaves me with nearly 2-3 days to work on an entry. Given that I did the Speedhack one in two, I guess I can try. TranslatorHack 2010, a human translation chain in a.cc. |

Ok, so I registered, even if I said I wouldn't. My wishlist is poor, though. Hope I have time to improve it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Years of thorough research have revealed that what people find beautiful about the Mandelbrot set is not the set itself, but all the rest. |

Registered. First wishlist idea is easy to do, the other 2 are a bit more complex for whoever feels like it. It's gonna suck to turn my entry from a 7 day development to 3 days, but it'll be fun. Better than sitting around and complaining about not doing anything in the forum. I have a feeling I'll bloat my application with XMLs this time tho... I just came from a project working with pretty much everything using XMLs. TranslatorHack 2010, a human translation chain in a.cc. |

I'll give this one a shot. I haven't done any game development in years, so this will let me get some experience with Allegro 5. ----- |

The problem with this Hack is that if I don't finish my entry (which is not unlikely) I'll feel quite guilty as I'm (theoretically) getting a present for not doing anything useful :X ---- |

I just might participate... But I really suck at developing things in a short time.

Well they didn't do one for 2010 so I wonder if he didn't get tired of doing it. Not to mention the old site shows that the numbers started dropping for entrants so he may have just decided it wasn't worth the trouble anymore "Can't a man even talk to himself without being interrupted?" -Krull(1983) |

Slartibartfast said: The problem with this Hack is that if I don't finish my entry (which is not unlikely) I'll feel quite guilty as I'm (theoretically) getting a present for not doing anything useful :X Well, since one of the purposes of these hacks is to provide motivation to finish a game... I think that's a feature, not a bug "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow."-Ecclesiastes 1:18 |

I've been wanting to do a hack event but I won't get a chance.
