But... But... that's going to happen sometime in the morning, like worktime morning. You have six hours! (Though I could be wrong, Paradox can be trixie.)

In any case, tomorrow is only a dream away.

You live in the wrong country :D It is exactly noon here. Lunch time! :p

EDIT: I mean it will be exactly noon 12 hours from now, as it is exactly midnight right now. Or rather it is 13 minutes past midnight. But you get what I mean. I hope.

Last score revision is in and also legit. Thanks to the judge! :)

-------------------------------------

We have 19 AAR´s from 19 writers.
We have 16 scores, from 16 judges.
We have final rankings, we have a winner, a second and a third one.
We have a top10 and some who missed the top10 slightly (and a little less slightly)
We had great AAR´s, we had awesome stories, we had cool pictures and we had memorable characters!
We had a good time in writing, reading, judging and overwatching on this contest!

What we dont had where any loosers, because everyone gave his best,
and i am proud of all my 19 contestors and all my 16 judges!

THANK YOU! :)

Meh, I have to work the late shift and no Internet access tomorrow so I'll have to miss most of it.

*grumbles*​

I'll only see the very beginning if the forum is already online again at 12h and the last announcements as I come home at 23h... At least I don't miss the Grand Finale. I assume you'll wait until almost midnight tomorrow to post the winner, Alexspeed?

The Contest Finale starts!

Ladies & Gentlemen,

I am proud to be able to present you now, in the coming hours,
the rankings of my contest.

We will start with the one placed last and work our way up to the winner!

I will make post every 30-60 minutes with the next one :)

I also will announce my judges, and in the end
i will post the complete scoretable with all the scores they got.
(but not with the judges names)

You are allowed... No expected! To speculate, congratulate,
saying some words to the AAR, and to shuffle your feet
while you wait for the next one to be posted :D

I hope you will enjoy it and be my guest on this exciting journey to find out the results!



Witout much further talk we begin with the one ranked last:

6912558contest-placement19.jpg


mjj55409 - Wishing for the Sun -- A Story of Piemonte

Well, someone had to be the last of the 19, i am sorry its you.

You signed up as second one to my contest, as one new to the contest,
the forum and the exciting world of AAR´s.

You made a nice start, but then you sadly vanished. I really hope all is well
with you and its only the real life that is taking its toll, keeping you from beeing here.
Maybe you will return one day, bigger and brighter than you where,
and continue your AAR or make a new one.

I am sure if you had continued with your AAR your position could have been better :)

I thank you for competing and i wish you all the best!
 
Oooh, custom graphics...

I feel sorry for mjj, but i guess the lesson here was make sure you have enough chapters for the contest!

I have a sad feeling Moonstruck might be next, which is very sad considering the quality of the two or three chapters he wrote.
 
Sad indeed, there are a few very promising AARs that met an untimely finish. Like Alexspeed, i hope "its only the real life that is taking its toll"... and that everybody (whatever their scores) will continue their AArs after the results.
 
And here we continue with the Rank 18 AAR:

5135225contest-placement-18.jpg


Moonstruck - Land der Dichter und Denker - Tales from PrussiAAR

You made not the last rank with only 2 chapters, and the whopping penalties that
you got for that, this alone speaks for the quality your AAR posesses.

I personally really liked your AAR, it was an exciting start,
and it made me sad that you decided not to post further chapters (till now).
At least you didnt vanish from the Forum completly, maybe one day
you decide its time to return to AAR-land and to write again.
I would be your reader :)

I guess if you had wrote on, your AAR could have been in the Top 10.

I thank you for competing and i wish you all the best!
