Grant Tegtmeier. Thanks Tom, for the kind words. Lots of other people helped in many ways, and we'd like to thank them as well: Paul Higginbottom, our very helpful and patient Commodore contact Paul Malnati, for helping print out the t-shirt iron-ons Rob Peck, for donating the use of his PO Box as the collection center for demos and getting them to us Tom Rokicki, for providing the backup machine (now you know why the 32RADIO BBS was down on Friday) and helping with the distribution/copying Leo Schwab, for MCing and everyone at BADGE, for getting the word out And special thanks go to all the contestants and the prize contributors (listed below), and AmiEXPO, for providing the use of the Santa Clara Convention Center.

(Before anyone asks, in case anyone does, we have a limited number of these, just for the contestants. No more.) The winners were announced and prizes awarded at AmiEXPO, on Oct 22, Sunday. Contestants who weren't present will be notified of the results by mail (real US mail) this week; winners will also receive their prizes at the same time. Now the goal is to get the demos out there as soon as possible; because the distribution is huge we will try to get them to the major distribution centers before anywhere else. So, if you wish the see the demos, please be patient; they will probably be available at an archive or BBS or dealer near you, and perhaps even on Fish disks, in the coming weeks. We'll keep you posted as to the progress of the distribution. Oh, and start cooking up more great demos, in case we do have a BKDC3. More later. Finally, thanks to the net for putting up with months of BKDC2 notices. Ali Ozer, for the BADGE Killer Demo 2 Committee
