Well, attendance could have been better, but we had a pretty good time!
I suspect if it hadn't been exactly the same day as Halloween, we might
have had better luck on attendance. Shifting the contest a week or two
ahead would probably be a good idea in future.

In any event, we actually got a decent game going, using the new game
software we developed for the event. It still needs polish, but I was
pretty happy with its early performance. Of course, being involved in
the development, I'm probably biased. :)

I think everyone who made it got more than enough pizza, too. Next time,
we may want to push the food angle a little harder. That should draw a
few more out of the woodwork, I imagine.

In any case, I think, overall, we got a pretty good event going. I'd
like to thank all those who attended, and to those who didn't, well,
maybe next year! :)
