Ah, but seriously, having one sticky thread in one forum is the bare minimum we could be doing. For example, it could be integrated much better throughout gp32x.de - ie a banner on the frontpage.
Also, maybe a banner on craig's site gp2x.co.uk(?). News stories everytime the prize pool passes a mile stone, eg. "GP2X community raises $400 for game contest" which would be posted in news, and then that would spread to affiliate sites.

I think having to write 15 reviews might be putting most people off. The sample review was shortish but x15.. that's a lot of writing!PSyMastR posted on Sep 8 2006 at 07:05 PM said:

Heh, if I have my gp2x in time (around october) I'd like to apply as judge...

I think your best bet is to extend the judging application deadline to December 1. I don't see any real reason that you have to have your judges three months before they have to judge anything.

True, Ill talk with him about it.
EDIT:
The judging reviews won’t be that extensive, we just wanted to know if you could review a game and analyze it properly, that’s what the sample review was for.

I'd be a judge, if you're still looking. Here's a link to a couple of mini-reviews I did for my gaming clan's site:

I talked with Magnus, December 1st is the new judge deadline, if you would like to apply, the same judging rules still apply, send in a short review modeled by the example review on an existing homebrew app and mail it to the email provided on the page.

I'll have to wait and see how my new job develops before I can decide if I've got the time to become a judge. Good to see the deadline expanded. 
Now get her up to 500$. Or 1000. B)

It doesn't bother me as long as the deadlines are staggered... ha ha. Gives me and Karurosu more time to get PKAGE finished.

How about updating the Current Prize Funds weekly?

It's past the $400 euro barrier - post a news story to gp32x.de, and maybe even to places like slashdot and gamedev/gamasutra...
A bit of promotion would go a long way!
