    Congratulations to our winner, Entry #1 !

    If you wrote it please PM me to get credit or claim it in your story thread! No runnerup this time!

    There's a typo in there where I had 6 points for myself instead of 5 - but it doesn't change the rankings. My bad.

    Treat yo'self. You've been running this impartially far too long.

    Holy shit I got third in my first competition! :D

    All jokes aside congrats to @LucyInTheSkye and thanks to everyone that left a review. I'll definitely work on my craft using the advice given and make a better showing next time. Looking forward to the next one and hope to see more entries!

    My name is all shiny! And I've got a star! I feel like a princess now, thank you!

    I would like to thank everyone who wrote reviews and voted, I'd like to thank my cat for being there for me in my hour of need, and special thanks to the other two story writers. I loved reading both your contributions, but at the same time I think we're all thinking we'll write something even better next time. Lots of love and respect to Ched for making this competition happen!!

    (I'm lucky your computer broke down on you because I think we all know you would've won with the story you had planned!)

    Eh, I only lost about 600-700 words. I still have the outline and the first paragraphs. It's up in the air whether I'd have finished it, and even if I had finished it... my longer works rarely turn out well.

    Take your win. Congrats :)
