Exactly. I was going to write a lengthy reply to this (I still might), but the crux of the problem is that a lot of the "better" d-mod authors (SimonK, Paul Pliska, Simeon, Redink etc) have moved on to other things, and simply don't have the time to invest in a d-mod... at least, not one of the high standards they have set themselves.

Yet in the last 5 years or so, nobody has stepped in to this void. There are no "new" SimonK's around... or not that I've noticed. Whilst there are still promising d-mods in production, the d-mod scene has certainly grown stagnant.

Also, new authors seem to be too ambitious. Rather than planning a romp, and keeping it simple whilst learning the basics of DinkC, they aim to create an epic to rival the greatest d-mods ever released. Inevitably they fail, and nothing gets done.

Expect a contest soon.
