:3 About to get my judge on.

Also for clarification, where do the judges send their results?

I'm only passing on submissions for the next 4 hours. If you want to get something in, do it now.

Midnight here, so here are the entries. I can't remember whether I'm ahead of the west coast or not right now (damn you, Arizona, and your bizarre DST usage), but I'll probably accept a straggler if there is one, provided it's not TOO late.

All in all, a pretty respectable showing. Let the judging commence!

surprised I was just rewriting the ending!

Okay, my bad. To be fair, I didn't know I could still edit my text until about an hour ago, since I didn't read your post yesterday due to time differences. I'm not asking that you make an exception for me or something, that would be tedious anyway.

But for those who will read it, please remember that one of those endings were written in a real hurry. I had to finish the text right now, so I wrote whatever crap I first thought of, and throwed it out there. I didn't like it even the moment I was writing, but I didn't think the obvious alternatives until after I submitted.

(Disclaimer: This in no way refers to the judges. I just want the other people to know that I hate that ending too.)

I'm going to give my thoughts on all of them, but I'm probably going to wait for the judges. I don't want to influence them too much.

But Fallen, out of curiosity, what is your native language?

Why don't you drop me a PM? Since I know which story was yours, I can give detailed critique without giving the game away.

Thanks for the criqtiquye you will give me frezair :). I apreciate the interest.

I really want to be more of an artist (doing comics) than a writter. This is my first story ever so I really wish it isn't that badtongue

Because I judged last time, and this time I wanted to write, and the theme looked promising and fun! But I am a hopeless nitpicker anyway, so I'll end up posting my thoughts regardless!

>Gives Parable a cookie< I just made them. And they are in no way a bribe for the judges. Mainly because they don't know which is mine.

Sometime this week or next for results, I think, and as for critiques, they will likely be provided.

But I'm no judge, so this is just a guess.

Yes; a week's supposed to be the deadline for judging. Last time the judges took a little longer, but it all worked out in the end.
