Iron Modder 9 will be held SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 4, 2005 commencing at 12 noon Central US time (6 PM UK, 7 PM Europe, 10 AM Pacific US, 1 PM Eastern US) The theme, as always, will be announced when the contest begins on the Iron Modder forum at Forums.pocketplane.net
Iron Modders have just four hours to create an original mod designed around a secret theme announced at the outset of the contest. Dozens of Iron Mods have been created since the contests began in 2003.

This sounds like a really interesting idea. I wonder if I could learn Infinity Engine scripting in time...
It's entirely possible. It's not the recommended way to learn, because of the added time pressure, but we have had novices attempt the topics in the past. The previous packs actually provide interesting code to learn from, since it's relatively straightforward (if sometimes a little cluttered due to the time pressure.) Maybe we'll see you there.
