Is anyone familiar with an older (maybe early 2000’s or so) game contest that I think took place on some programming forum where the winner was this 3d goo-putting out fires on a rotating board thing? I remember the format was not specific (there were a few games in Flash, some in C++ etc).

Other entries included an overhead city thing where you are dropping bombs or something? And I think second place was some kind of scare crow in a corn field scaring crows away or something. Ive been searching for it for a while and cant remember where I found it before :-/
