Discussion Thread -- 300 Word Challenge #13

[Remedy]

Thank you Karn Maeshalanadae

I'm chuffed to wake up to a vote! Bring it on Thursday!

 

[Perpetual Man]

Blimey the days barely started and there are votes in already, quite a lot as well (although it always looks more because of the three vote things, more votes than people voting).

Mostly stealth too.

So a quick (big) thanks to Fitzchiv and Rafellin, the votes are greatly appreciated.

 

[Droflet]

My first 300 and once again I have to do the impossible. Sigh. So ...

Honorable mentions:
Cat - Beasty - Brev - Bowler - Bony - Chrispy - TJ - Ursa - TDZ -TS Platty.

Votes: Juliana - Springs - Jastius.

Such gooooood stories written sooooo well. (except for that Telford guy. Bloody amateur.)

 

[Perpetual Man]

telford - you're lucky Nixie is not around at the moment, that final comment would have got you a virtual slap!

 

[Ursa major]

Thanks for the mention, Telford.

 

[Jo Zebedee]

Ooooh, thanks Telford. Made my morning.

My shortlist (very hard, as ever)

Juliana
Ratsy
Cat's cradle
bowler 1
Phryebrat and
Boneman

And my votes went to Juliana, Bowler and Boneman.

 

[Boneman]

What a way to start off May! Many thanks for the wonderful vote, Springs, vrey much appreciated, just what I need to face the day. And the week.

Telford, thanks for the second mention in three days!!

 

[Droflet]

Very well, Perp, I'll consider myself properly chastised. Telford slaps own face.

 

[Bowler1]

Mentions etc. as follows.

Remedy, Juliana, Springs (a vote, it was too mad a story not to vote on), Mr Orange (this was a strong start to the 300 competition and worried me enough that I was polishing and editing for weeks after, well done guys), Ratsy, Victoria * (very good and should give you a good lead now), Starbeast, DOE, Fitzchiv, Storyteller, Telford, Boneman (very good and unexpected ending, made me smile) and lastly the Cute Bear.

Not a very short list, which reflects the very high standard I felt. I enjoyed them all and all were good.

Thank you Springs for a vote and Telford for a mention. Both mean a lot to me.

 

[Juliana]

Thank you springs and telford for the votes, and Bowler for the mention.

My votes went to springs, The Judge and TDZ.

Too many stories on my shortlist, so I'm just going to mention my top three 'runners up', Victoria, Brev and Mosaix.

 

[Jo Zebedee]

Thanks Bowler and Juliana. I am smiling lots. It's been a smiley week.

 

[ratsy]

Thanks for the listings Bowler and springs!

 

[Boneman]

Bowler, thank you so much for the vote! Greatly appreciated, and the idea came from watching a comedy sketch where the queen was going by and a false arm was pinned at the windoe, going back and forth like a metronome, while she sat with her hands in her lap...

 

[Ursa major]

Thanks for the mention, Bowler.
