    Only two stories? How disappointing. I love to see what lit netters come up with.

    That's what I was thinking!

    There was another story but, unfortunately, it was sent as an attachment and I was not able to open it. Its writer failed to reply our emails, which is a great shame.

    It is always a good idea to read the Rules!

    Aww, that is too bad, but what can you do? Perhaps the writer can submit the story for another competition in the future.

    I do so wish that I had 100 posts. I have tried the games but find it boring to post just a list of numbers to get a minimum posts. Next year some time I will get to 100 and will vote and maybe even submit a few of my own stories.

    Boy, can I identify with you mosey mow!
    My intention was to vote right off early. But, I must reread the stories again. I am always on the lookout for... symptoms of...
    EARLY ONSET! Eeeeg sometimes I seem to be confused with the most trivial of things, where, as a younger man... I knew it ALL! (No ego there, ha ha)

    Ничего нет лучше для исправления, как прежнее с раскаянием вспомнить.

    Only 8 votes so far, disappointing for a thread that's had over 275 views and is the last voting round for this year!

    *sigh* I can't wait for the final round... go,go,go VOTE!
