(I would also like to encourage Raven and Bird to post this mysterious final line mentioned earlier, cause I'd love to see how it rounds out the tale  ) |

Whoa... I seriously thought Buried Secrets was gonna take first. So this is a fun surprise to wake up to. Thanks, voters!
Not sure how it happened. I'll go read the crits next. And a really pretty badge, Caulder.
What a fun challenging contest this was. I was dreading it to be honest, but it ended up being relaxing almost.
Well, we ended up working it in via the last letter, so ...

Well, you were writing with me, Raveneye. I did my best to make sure it was fun for you!! I honestly really enjoy collaborative writing, and writing with you was fantastically awesome in every way! Thank you for doing it with me!
And thanks to everyone for your votes! I'm glad you liked Tuo and Kanda's adventure!
Good job to the other contestants too! You all had wonderfully written entries too!

Congrats to Bird/Raveneye for their compelling and excellent story. Maybe a duo to challenge Niven and Pournelle.

Congratulations to all contestants and fantastic job with your entries! This was a really fun and challenging contest. I had never written with a partner before, so it was great to do something out of the ordinary. Though, most of the credit for our entry goes to RavingCynic - I wasn't even sure I'd enter for this one, but he came up with the main idea and then we bounced off each other. |

Great idea, Raving. Truly loved it. |

A bit late, I know, but I wanted to add my congratulations to ALL the entrants. I can well imagine how close the final scores must have been. Great concept. Maybe I can throw my own hat into the ring next time.  |
