Cheaters Challenge 2015 - Results

Congratulations to all the winners and thank you to everyone who entered stories. I enjoyed reading all of them!

Congrats to the top six well done, plus each story writer who entered gets a big thank you from me, many masterpieces among them.

Congratulations to the winners, but I think I've said it before, congratulations to everyone that entered. It takes courage to post a story here at all, and even more to post one for judgement in a contest.

Congratulations to the winners! And thanks for all the submissions from everyone. Major Grin!

Well done winners! Thanks for all the stories everyone. I have great respect for your talents and a pleasure in our interest.

Congrats to all the winners! Reading all the entries was a pleasure - and I was gratified to see that the top six were nearly all ones that I'd personally rated highly.

More congratulations and celebrations from me too - especially to the top three and three runners up!
I also enjoyed reading every entry, they were all different, everyone should feel proud of their achievement for entering, reading , commenting or scoring. Of course, we also acknowledge our brilliant admin staff who make sure the wheel turns successfully - bravo to all!

Congratulations to Guy and all the winners in this Challenge. I thoroughly enjoyed both writing and reading for this one. There were some amazingly well written stories and innovative plots. Big thank you to you all.

First, I want to thank everybody who read and voted on "The Panty Parade". I also want to thank Februs and Flopsy for hosting the event.

Second, my congratulations to all of the other winners and entrants.

If there is one lesson to be learned here, it is to not get disheartened if you enter multiple challenges without winning. I received one honorable mention in the very first challenge, and then not a sniff of a winner until this one, several years later. So never give up!

They call them "Challenges" rather than "Contests" and the distinction is important.

First, it's about fun.

Second, there are no "losers". Why? Because there is nothing objective or even uniform about the scoring, so we all know that the best story doesn't necessarily win. And by the way, "winning" gives you little more than brief bragging rights.

But it's the "Challenge" part that gives us the incentive to turn out our best work! That bit of stress helps us grow as writers, and it helps assure a steady stream of high-quality material for the library.

So it's a win-win situation.
