Sheesh, canā€™t believe that this is still the last time Iā€™m doing a competition like this. Canā€™t get too emotional nowā€¦ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ Now for further details for the qualifiersā€¦ I was told by many forum users that I should make my themes much broader, so I did some brainstorming and found a theme that should be good enough and not too restrictive at all. Anyhowā€¦ ![](https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcrN5vCy5kxAlFdLb1iWtxqzuSSmONyqXOE7buYY46MiDzRaVZkQhQyTS_pw7cxlSChiYkMrBS6_DYFB4hY66HA_VQ5St175DkLZ8b_NoUQEKD3Wfb_de9mVmIuu2jN3LVxUv1sUA?key=xnpJ_dYygfuWkLmY6dva5A) The Qualifiers theme shall beā€¦ WESTERN I was also advised by a bunch of forum users to keep the deadlines within 2 weeks; thus, I shall give yā€™all till the end of 08/15/2025 EST to submit your games. In this case, ANYONE CAN JOIN THE QUALIFIERS AND SUBMIT A GAME TO BE JUDGED. THE TOP 6 SHALL MOVE ON TO THE QUARTERFINAL ROUND. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ Also, the winner of this challenge shall receive quite an advantageā€¦ PRESENTINGā€¦ THE STEAK! ![image](https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXctyBliIcOMO9qapACI1ykH93IblYnxzCoGhXFRrObaeamvMf7aObnf2dc37VapP7GSLKU971D0J7bY9c4GY8O6o1YDABvdl6t-mpgveEDhkbVFY90zvwV9YfkB4zW82Qr9J6WoBw?key=xnpJ_dYygfuWkLmY6dva5A) It has returned for the second time now. See all of that fire? When you wield it, you will be deemed immune for the next challenge. This powerful relic can only be gained by winning a challenge. BUT BEWARE! People will be given the chance to steal it from you (by winning a challenge). \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ Cool, so with that being said, LET THE FINAL CODER KING COMPETITION BEGIN!!! _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.makecode.com/t/coder-king-5-end-of-an-era/37293/135))_ ---
