    Estimate 30 hours left. Technically it’s like 21 but it will go into the next day a bit before I get around to it.

    Also. Done!

    Didn't think I would make it. Tried to be fair. Kind of regret voting so soon, but it is what it is.

    Pretty sure my entry won't win this, but I'm still glad I submitted. Hope that everyone else who wrote for this one finds the time to invest in the next competition too!

    do not panic sir, as long as the thread isn’t locked I’ll continue to review, even if I don’t get to vote at the end (voting is for losers anyways, see the paradox of voting for further reference)

    #6 is the Winner!

    I'll do a larger write-up soon - it's New Years Eve and I'm busy and shit.

    I am leaning towards not making #1 a 'runner-up' officially since my rough criteria requires that the runner-up be closer to the winner than it is to third place. (So if the winner got 6 votes, second place got 5, and third place got 3 - then we'd have a runner-up. If the winner got 6 votes, second got 4, and third got 3 - then no runner-up).

    Next comp will be back to standard rules and I'll have it up by the 2nd, hopefully.

    Well done everyone!

    AUTHORS - feel free to go post in your story threads now to respond to critique, etc.

    EVERYONE - if you liked the shorter comp length let me know in the GENERAL Competition thread. Given the turn out I'm leaning towards doing it again Q2.

    Thanks everyone!

    I'm about to start a new competition thread, update the winners thread, and move this thread to the sub-forum.

    As of now you all have until the next poll finishes to post in the story threads before I lock them. In the past authors have sometimes wanted to respond and whatnot, though no pressure!

    Thanks again to everyone who participated in any of our yearly competitions. I am loving these things.
