It's now time for everyone to read the entries and cast your votes.

Voting closes on August 25, 2004 at 8PM Renderosity time.

Sorry to be so vague... but I cant figure out how to cast the vote. The last thing I voted for in the forums had links on each of the pages in the contest and I just clicked the link I was interested in voting for. Will it be the same here? Or are we supposed to vote by posting a comment? I couldn't see anything on any of the contest entries that said "VOTE HERE" or somesuch. Can anyone help? It would be appreciated. Thanks,

1st place gets 3 points. 2nd place gets 2 points. 3rd place gets 1 point. GonWaki will do the calculation to come up with the winner. :)

But HOW do we cast the votes? I just read them all and saw nothing in which to cast a vote.

You can either use the point system (as specified in the contest rules) or just list them, making sure you identify which entry is your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice. Post your votes in this thread only.

Oh. Duh! Sorry about that--senior moment! :D 1st=2 2nd=3 3rd=1

Don't worry about it - I have them all the time and I'm only middle-aged.

Hey! I'm only 51, er....42!!! Yeah, 42!! LOL :D

Can I have a senior moment at 46?.. either that or frequent blonde moments :|
I'm not old!...I'm chronologically challenged.
Here's my vote for what it's worth:

1st=5
2nd=3 (am i allowed to vote for myself?)
3rd=1

If its not allowed that I vote for myself, please let me know and I shall endeavour to amend this reply.

Am I allowed to vote? I really liked the creativity of Garblesnix's "Finder", especially the "sound love makes when it enter the soul." All the rest fullfilled my hope of creating interesting characters and dialoge. Thanks to all who participated for entertaining us. 1st = 1 2nd = 5 3rd = 2

First place: entries 3(shemia)

Second place (tie): entries 2(airlynx) and 5(Gurami)

Third place: entry 2 (Garblesnix)

Congratulations to the winners!

Note: as the challenge rules state, manimal was not eligible for voting this time out.

Unfortunately I was moving the past weekend and today was the first time I've been able to get back here. Wow, second place, yay me & Gurami! Shemia, you deserve first place, excellent job. Everyone always does such a good job on the challenges here. It's too bad there isn't much more participation.

Manimal: thanks. Congrats to the rest. garblesnix

Hi, everybody. Thank you very much for appreciating my very first writing contribution. Congrats to all other writers, reading your stories was fun! This is encouraging. However, like airlynx said, a few more contributions and a lot more voters (=readers) would be great.

Firstly, congratulations to everyone who participated. I think each and every story was very well written and if a story can make me smile or shiver as did these entries, then I think everyone deserves to win. I think Airlynx, Gurami and Garblesnix did a fantastic job and deserve their win, so congratulations to the three of you, very well done. Lets hope we can encourage more people to participate in the next one and get some interest going in the voting area. Maybe we can come up with something that everyone will not only be interested enough to read but to vote for as well in the next challenge. How long do I have to come up with an idea for it? Is it also possible to ask in the forums for ideas that other people have so we have some idea what people want and write about stuff that other people would like to read?

I've finally come up with an idea for the next challenge. Can I post it in this thread or do I start another? Thought I'd better ask first so I don't do the wrong thing.
:0)

Send your idea to GonWaki so he can set up a challenge page for you. :)
