Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Mine seems to be missing... did it not qualify?


message 52: by Lorraine (new)

Lorraine Versini (lorraineversini) | 8438 comments Nah, with Shaun it would have been Fangtooth 2, the return !


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Oh blast.

Gingerlily, I am so so sorry!

Your entry got hidden in my thousands of PMs. I'll rectify that right now.


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Sniff.. I should think so!


message 55: by Anne (new)

Anne (anniethorny) | 133 comments Enjoyed reading the entries but will have to re-read and ponder a grest deal before voting. A fantastic idea.


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments Some good entries - thank you, everyone, for entering! Tough to choose...

Should we also announce who comes 2nd and 3rd?

Should we allow for critiques?

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments You're the boss (in this instance).

D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments I think, as we have quite a few entries and a couple that deviate from the exercise (!), that it would be good to recognize the three with the most votes.

EDIT: Only 1st gets the tweets etc.


message 59: by Katy (new)

Katy | 2662 comments I've voted! (:


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments I have now also voted! :)


message 61: by Lorraine (new)

Lorraine Versini (lorraineversini) | 8438 comments When is voting due? I won't be able to read them until later tonight


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments midnight, June 11th


message 63: by Lorraine (new)

Lorraine Versini (lorraineversini) | 8438 comments Oh plenty of time then :)


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments I can't vote cuz I set up the poll.

*pout*


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments Well, as we never see the results you can just add your vote on to a post saying who the top three are - no need to see the actual poll results. In fact, it might be kind not to - as the person who comes last or does not get any votes (sure that won't happen) might be a bit miffed. Though I think I can handle it ;)


message 66: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments Can't you ask someone who isn't voting to cast one for you?


message 67: by Darren (new)

Darren Humphries (darrenhf) | 6903 comments No way I can choose out of those. Good standard from all who entered, 'authors' or 'non-authors'.


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments And mine still isn't up, so people are voting witout having seen it.


message 69: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments You should get a special 'Patti is a Dilly' prize, GL! Tell her I said so!

Gingerlily, yours is up (: It's tagged onto the bottom of another entry - mine I think! - instead of having a separate post (:


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments It is up - and read! You've not missed out ;)


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Ah, ok. I didnt think of reading back to previous posts for some reason. . .


message 73: by D.D. Chant (last edited Jun 06, 2012 05:26AM) (new)

D.D. Chant (DDChant) | 7663 comments Voted!

It was hard to choose, I was stuck between two and I had to go away and think about it for a while. I changed my mind several times but I've finally decided.

I didn't want to add it in after a bunch of other comments, GL.

Hope that was okay?


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Yes thats fine - as long as its in there with the rest. :)


message 76: by Stuart (new)

Stuart Ayris (stuayris) | 2614 comments The vote from the Tollesbury jury is in!


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments Maybe we should go Eurovision format on the next one? ;)


message 78: by Stuart (new)

Stuart Ayris (stuayris) | 2614 comments Only vote for people who either subsidise our economy or who we don't want to invade us?


message 79: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments Nul points? Never did know how you spell that!


message 80: by Stuart (new)

Stuart Ayris (stuayris) | 2614 comments I think its 'neepwon' though I could be wrong!


message 81: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments Tthat's how you say it!


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments What's Eurovision format?


message 83: by Lorraine (last edited Jun 06, 2012 10:11AM) (new)

Lorraine Versini (lorraineversini) | 8438 comments Are we allowed to give the most points to our closest friends then, regardless of the actual article?

Actually, maybe we should just put numbers and not names... and try and guess who wrote what !


message 84: by Simon (Highwayman) (last edited Jun 06, 2012 10:18AM) (new)

Simon (Highwayman) (highwayman) | 4276 comments You can vote Patti. I don't mind coming last. It will be recognition at last for my English lit teacher.


message 85: by Lorraine (new)

Lorraine Versini (lorraineversini) | 8438 comments Simon we might have to fight for that spot !


Rosemary (grooving with the Picts) (nosemanny) | 8590 comments What great fun. You are all very talented. Yes, even you Simon ;o))


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Yes, I've just clued in that I CAN vote! I can be such a dope.

This is interesting. At the moment, we have one in the lead, then a five-way tie for second place...


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments Yes, that is a VERY good idea, Lorraine. Patti, don't post the names with the entries next time - numbers will do. ;)


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Is that an order darling?

I don't do well with following orders. ;)


Simon (Highwayman) (highwayman) | 4276 comments I have always admired you Rosemary.


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments An order? Never! An enthusiastic request! ;)


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Oh I love enthusiastic requests. :D

Philip (sarah) Willis | 4630 comments Just voted.


Simon (Highwayman) (highwayman) | 4276 comments If I win I will give out some oak tree lapel pins to bribe celebrate.


message 99: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments So, is it Monday when we find out who has come second?;)


message 100: by Simon (Highwayman) (last edited Jun 08, 2012 01:33PM) (new)

Simon (Highwayman) (highwayman) | 4276 comments Not sure ignite, remember it is a secret vote and I will never know which traitors voted for someone else. There really isn't a group dungeon and anyone who doesn't vote for me will not find themselves hanging upside down in manicles.............
