Teasers

On March 17th, 2018, Searge sent 2 tweets hinting at the return of Modjam, the first noting his openness to repeating ModJam, and the second containing the message "MODJNAM" hidden in the capital letters.

I won't see any of the mails until I'm back home after GDC, but you can convince me via "event at modjam dot net" to do a certain thing again that didn't happen for a long while ;) Subject: "BECAUSE"

the first tiMe it was a spontaneous idea that I had a day befOre easter, so it took place during easter weekenD and this time we'll Just do the same. No plans ready, no idea what's going to hAppen, but it'll be fun and should be More or less ok. #UnplannedFun

On March 27th, 2018, Searge sent another hidden message, "MODJAM" in a tweet containing the text

Maybe sOmething to Do. Just on eAster weekend. Maybe...

as well as a QR code linking to the ModJam website, which contained only a timer counting down to the start date of the jam.

Results

For the results, while everyone was able to vote, only participants' votes were counted towards the totals. This was done to prevent the community from overwhelmingly voting for "celebrity" mod authors for their name rather than the merit of their mod, as some had felt had happened in ModJam 3.
