Highest Ranked Entries for FEARFUL

Post by Deb Porter »

Hi everyone.

It's time to post the list of highest ranked entries for the "Fearful" Challenge.

As always, congratulations to all the winners, and a big pat on the back to all those who ranked in the top 40 overall, or in the top 15 for their level. Well done!

For those who missed making it into the highest rankings, don't feel too bad. Remember, we hit 200 entries for this particular topic, so the competition was pretty intense. You may have been just a fraction behind.

Love, Deb

I know...I'm number 12. Soooo close I can taste it! :P I know how it feels though--my second entry I ever entered for the challenge way back when it was only the top 8 entries got number 9...a few months later and it would have been in and I would have had two ECs in a row...but those days are long gone, lol. :violin It's nice though to have finally placed in Advanced!

Anyway, congrats everyone! The entries were amazing!

Don't EVEN go there, Douglas (now I know your name, muwahhhahahaaaaa!!) :nono2 :fingerwag :fingerwag .

You MADE the list. You are aware that there were SIXTY stories in beginners that did not make the list, and were therefore "worse" than you were. There were also close to that number in advanced that did not get recognized, some of which probably rated lower than you did - not to mention those in intermediate and masters.

(by the way, I know you were not being completely serious - but you hit a nerve, mister!)

(and now you all know how to bring out the crotchety old schoolmarm in me, eh?)
