Kyrathasoft Hangman (a NANY 2012 entry)
(1/1)
kyrathaba:
Fun Twist On A Classic Game!My program, Kyrathaba's Hangman, allows you to register a user-name. If you do, the High Score on your particular installation of the application will always be sent to the online database.
For the Highest Scoring DC member, as found here, I will donate up to 25 hours of programming for FREE on a small to mid-size project of your choice!! I reserve the right to determine what is within my skills, however. The top-three high-scoring DC members will receive an additional prize from the site.
I reserve the right to throw out a score that has obviously been obtained through some hack: being intimately conversant with the program's level of difficulty, I have a keen idea what's humanly possible.
On the last day of each month between now and the culmination of the NANY 2012 event, I will donate $5 DonationCredits to the highest scorer showing on the scoreboard, provided that the scorer is a DC member. Visitors who may be reading this: join now! The first disbursement will be on July 31st, the final one December 31st. That's an opportunity for someone to win up to $30, not to mention bragging rights!

* .NET Framework 4.0 installedAuthor Infocoded by kyrathaba | Profile page | Kyrathaba DC page | author of Kyrathaba's Source Code Line Counter. My past NANY entries include: Crocus Contacts, Blackjack, and NANY Excuse Manager.DescriptionThis was a project I did for the Boss Assignment of C# Programming School, Phase I. I liked it so much that I continued to develop it, eventually bringing in cranioscopical for some expert testing. I owe him a debt for the many bugs he made me aware of; and to mouser I say "thank you" for encouraging me not to give up in learning enough PHP to build the online scripts and database to implement my desired features-set.

What! This program is FREE!?? A crime, that's what it is! Someone slap the developer around until he starts showing some sense and charging for this gem of genius! -- Gamasutra
