I know the entries were low

I know there weren't a lot of entries last week for agreement/disagreement and this week's employment but I hope you can still list the top 8-10 in each group, along with the overall top 20 or so. I've noticed there were several fairly new writers both weeks. I remember being discouraged and thinking I should quit when I didn't place in my level, but finding out I was in the highest rankings encouraged me so much! I hope you can list the top 8 or so.

Also, have both bonus prizes been put aside? It seemed like there were so many more comments when the bonus prize was out there. I loved winning it once!

Thank you again for all of the hard work that is poured into the challenge! It is soooooooooo appreciated. Once again, I'd love to help in any way I can whether it be helping the analogies get published, doing something with the challenge or whatever. FW has given me a big part of my life back and it would thrill me to pay that kindness forward.

Thanks again!

Hi Shann. Level 1 was too low to do that with. I can only do the top 6. If you start to drop it down too low, it means less and becomes more obvious who didn't do well at all. Encouragement for some will mean discouragement for others. Better to think you were the next in line than to find out you weren't.
When a Level has more entries, we can definitely post more in the highest rankings.

I've seen the highest rankings become very discouraging in the past, and I don't want to go there again.

We definitely have a top 20, though, because Level 3 and 4 had quite a good number of entries.

Love, Deb

Hey Shann!

I think you're looking for this. http://www.faithwriters.com/Boards/phpB ... 54&t=34594

The highest ranked were posted, but it accidentally got put into a different section than normal. :)

Thank you so much Allison! There are so many people who don't know about it and I so enjoy telling them! :D
