+<h2>Let's get a Party Started </h2><br />
+Sure, you know what <a href="http://libsdl.org/">SDL</a> is, right? Well, SDL has <a href="http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?SDL">very nice Perl <br />
+bindings</a> that let you use the power and flexibility of Perl to write <br />
+awesome games in no time!<br />
+<br />
+There's even a <a href="http://sdlperl.ath.cx/releases/SDL_Manual.pdf">manual to help you get started</a>, including full game<br />
+tutorials and a list of free/open-source resources for your games,<br />
+like sprites, sound effects and music.<br />
+<br />
+<h2>The Premise </h2><br />
+Everyone know that by far the Coolest Game Ever™ is the one *you*<br />
+write, from that silly idea you had the other day to a playable game<br />
+you and your friends can enjoy.<br />
+<br />
+This march, the SDL Perl team is going to help you take that project<br />
+out of your dusty drawer of "TODO"s and turn it into a reality, with<br />
+the "SDL Perl Game Contest!"<br />
+<br />
+The rules are simple, and much like the Perl Ironman contest:<br />
+<br />
+"One game per week. Every week of march."<br />
+<br />
+This means by the end of march you'll have not one, but FOUR games to<br />
+show for. How cool is that?!<br />
+<br />
+In fact, you can even make your weekly game the subject of your<br />
+Ironman posts this month, and take out two birds with one stone<br />
+(hmm... more game ideas)!<br />
+<br />
+So this monday (feb. 28), start writing your game! You have until the<br />
+following monday to make it playable ("complete") and start all over<br />
+again with a brand new game for the next week.<br />
+<br />
+** But what if I miss a deadline? What if I can't start this monday?<br />
+<br />
+It doesn't really matter - just join the party and have some fun! Even<br />
+if you only get to do one game, it's still a great opportunity to<br />
+improve your skills and learn a bit about game design and development.<br />
+<br />
+If you need any assistance writing your game, from ideas to code, WE<br />
+WILL HELP! Just send an email to the SDL Perl mailing list with your<br />
+questions (you know, this one) or, better yet, join us live in #sdl<br />
+over at irc.perl.org and we'll be more than happy to assist you and<br />
+try your game out. If you never used irc before, please keep in mind<br />
+people might be busy or in different timezones than you, so you may<br />
+get instant responses or have to wait a few of hours before you get a<br />
+reply. Be patient!<br />
+<br />
+It can be a game about anything. Just make sure it's doable in a week.<br />
+Some games take years to be complete, but you might be surprised at<br />
+how much you can accomplish in just a few hours with SDL Perl :)<br />
+<br />
+Oh, there's one extra rule, actually, and that's mandatory - HAVE FUN!! :)<br />
+<br />
+<h2>Where to submit </h2>Send your games code an all in an email to sdl-devel@perl.org with the <br />
+subject "SDL Perl Game Contest #1: Submission". After a period of entries<br />
+a voting subject will be opened. See <a href="http://sdl.perl.org/"> SDL Perl Site</a> <br />
+on how to join the mailing list. <br />
+<br />
+<br />
+Cheers,<br />
+<br />
