Through the Keyhole Story Challenge 2012 - Results

I couldn't agree more... at least not until I win something! (other than last place, I mean) I value the specific feedback I get via the comments -particularly from the members whose opinion I really value - more than I do anonymous vote totals.

Speaking of the new material, I have a question for Februs - where do these stories appear in the monthly "acquisitions" stats? These 94 don't appear to be in the totals either for October (when they were submitted) or November (when the contest ended).

I think it would be a good idea if we had 3 winners for the challenges and a Top Ten.

There were so many good stories in this challenge. I handed out some high marks. There's so many views with readers regarding the orientation and the story itself, that I feel many good stories go by the wayside.

Some of my guesses on author's stories were right on. I did notice that there were more M/F stories this time around. Even my own. Was I Phishing? Not really, but I just had this story in my head about nose in the air hussy who thought she was God's gift to men.

I thanked each and every one who commented whether it was a good one or not. I had 27 and I was totally amazed. All of them were legitimate comments with a few opinions thrown in. Well, that's their prerogative I say and they're entitled to it.

Thanks again. Always appreciated.

Congratulations to the winners, and thanks to all participants, commenters, and voters. More than 40 000 votes and only God (and Februs) knows how many comments! Events like this keep the site lively, fun, and attractive.

Congratulations to the winners and thanks to everybody who participated.

Thanks also to all those who took the trouble to comment. My entry attracted the highest number of comments I've ever received for any story which is very encouraging.

Many thanks also to the organisers for putting the whole thing together.

Well done everyone and congratulations to the top six

So many congratulations are due to everyone involved
in this marathon of a challenge!
Very well done to all - and thank you!

Congrats indeed to all who took part in this Challenge and grateful thanks to our wonderful team of administrators who ran it all. I wonder why so many people took time out to comment on these stories when it was all I could do to get them all read. Comments will have to come later. Is there something about a challenge that stimulates commentators?

As ever a fine contest with a real wealth of quality entries from all genres.

Praise for the winners is truly deserved, with a field so large to compete against.

Bravo! to each and every entrant. Merely by sharing you have enriched the library for all who read here.
By my reckoning, we are all winners by being able to enjoy all of your wonderful work
THANK YOU ALL !!

Hearty congratulations to all the entrants and of course those that managed to get the top slots.
