The source code to staff comment was from me. The idea is some people do want the judges to have additional material to show off how good their entry is - source code, save game states, design documentation or early demos - that they don't want distributed to the general public. We do not require or specially ask for any of this extra content, and I expect most submissions will be of the single package variaty.

As for Torque, you don't need to give us the source code, but you do need to have the legal right to give us distribution rights to work (binaries and whatever data files are required to run) created by you with the Torque engine. If you have a licence to freely distribute as many copies of your Torque based game as you want without restriction (i.e. no "non-commercial" clauses), then you almost certainly have the right to give us distribution right to your work.

As I'm not a certified lawyer though, I can't read through the Torque licence and give you a definitive answer (it seems there is an "Indie" and a "Commercial" licence - I'd check to make sure the Indie licence doesn't block extension of binary redistribution). You'll either have to read the licence yourself and take any blame if you are wrong, or pay a lawyer to read it for you (if he's wrong then you can sue him for damages)

If we don't would we automatically get points off? Or if we do will we automatically get points on? Cause I have a feeling our game code will make us lose points if it's judged ;)
