Message: <blockquote data-quote="Macbeth" data-source="post: 1872448" data-attributes="member: 11259">Thanks. To be honest, I think that idea was all tha oulled me through. Interetsingly enough. PCat said in the feedback thread that he had been contemplatin someday using the same framework.  Yes I google ideas, I spend 24 hours before writing, but I don't usually go crazy. Most of the time.I did realize the danger (especially as I wrote the damn thing), but i did purposefully stay away from using repetitive phrases (thought it looks like my pictures were too repetitive. Whew!). I don't know what you mean about smack-talking, I tried to be very resprectful of my competitor (the narrator seems very intimidated by his match). THe references to stories by BSF and Alsih2o were chosen specifically becuase (a) I liked those stories and (b)I felt I knew both of them enough they wouldn't take it the wrong way, BSF I even  game with every Friday.I have to be honest: you're right, I didn't particularly like it. The premise grabbed me, but I just didn't feel like writing it. The part that went the best for me (the opening and the Ceramic DM references) seemed to carry slightly better then the rest, but I probably got a little carried away with the references.Thanks a lot to the judges, and a huge round of applause for orchid blossom. I really thought I was going to loose that round. I won't be reliably around until Sunday, but if I do feel I can start earlier I'll post.</blockquote>
