Mun CS Games Winter 2012 Singles Competition!

Each Fall and Winter at Memorial University's Computer Science Department an ACM rules programming competition is held for their students. These events have enjoyed much success due to the tireless work of many people on the CS Games committee. To help increase the popularity of the events I started donating prizes to the top placements in the competitions, and this Winters' Singles game is no different, so without more ado...
The prize chest contents for the Winter Semester 2012 CS Games (Singles) Competition.
