For inquiries regarding the contest, please refer to either Kylan or Azila.
I'm not sure where the results are. The two of them are both probably rather busy. Patience is a virtue.

Good one, thunder_dude.
Though there are SO many entries. Still, expecting to turn in stuff by the due date is the same for the entrants. |

Hmm...I expected to do better, but it could be worse. Oh well.
Oh, and sorry that I came across as mad. That was actually a joke. |

Congrats to everyone! Amazing! I think this might be the biggest contest turnout EVER. So yeah. Good job!
Haha, this is so hilarious. Both of my entries ended up as #4 and #5, just a bit before recieving any kind of prize. Oh well.
Thank you very much! Awesome contest, again. You must do another one! |

 I entered too! Didn't you read my story? It's called Revenge. And I did it on time. You can even check. So what's my percentage?

OKKK I think I see why you guys missed it. I was so sure I posted my link in the threadm but going back, I don't see it. I guess that's my fault. I though I HAD posted it there. But I haven't .
That's disappointing. I was anticipating for the results quite anxiously but due to my stupidness... grr. Well could you critique it anyways? And let me knwo the percentage. I know it's my fault and I'm truly sorry. As you probably want a break from judging...
....please?? |

Congrats, everyone!
Mizz Iceberg>> I will review your piece. I'm sorry that it wasn't part of the contest... that's really unfortunate.
