Technical Note
Some people using Internet Explorer have been having issues with the voting form above. If this is you: don't worry! You can still vote HERE.Last week, we accidentally posted the voting form above - a full week earlier than intended. All votes made during that time the form was live are 100% valid, and included in the results above.
How can you tell if you voted? I believe last time it informed me after I hit "done." If I didn't receive this message should I vote again? Also I'm having trouble with the links to view the previous votes. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGo ahead and vote again. It must not have taken your vote, Ann!
DeleteFirst entry is 3 sentences.
ReplyDeleteThe entries are randomised for each new voter - would you be able to let me know specifically which sentence you meant?
DeleteI think they mean the "We should slit her throat..." entry. It has 3 sentences.
DeleteThe "The letter smelled of starry summer nights. Fireworks and a first kiss." sentence is missing from the Industry vote?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately the entrant decided to leave the contest. The lines have been removed from both forms.
DeleteTechnically, that entry did not meet the contest guidelines, so after multiple comments from judges and other competitors, we decided to discuss this with the participant. After much deliberation, she felt that for stylistic reasons this wouldn't work as well as a single sentence. Calls like this are really hard--so we apologize for the confusion!
DeleteThanks for hosting this contest! Love the breakdown of votes!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're enjoying it, Shari! It's so much fun watching the judging!
DeleteGood luck everyone!
