Challenge #1: Winners!

[ithilien22.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much to everyone who voted! We had four awesome entries for this challenge and the scores were very close! Here’s the final breakdown:

1st place [192 pts] - Army Blue by indigo_5
2nd place [188 pts] - Burn by frances_veritas
3rd place [105 pts] - Feels Like Home by moongirl24
4th place [87 pts] - The Look

Unfortunately, we did have to disqualify one vote because the person in question only voted for their first favorite entry and not a second and third. The rules clearly state that you must vote for your top three stories (up to your top 5, if you wish), and since the vote in question would have affected the outcome, Ronnie and I decided the fairest thing to do was to stick to the rules as outlined. So please keep that in mind for future challenges!

(Also, I counted all of the other votes, but please in the future remember to vote only with the number listed, not the title. That makes it much easier for me to tally!)

Thanks again and congrats to all of the participants for this challenge! Your stories were all fantastic! :D
