After eliminating cat stories

But...but... I wrote a cat-eliminating story, just for you!

 

[David Evil Overlord]

I wrote a cat illuminating story.

 

[Danny McG]

I wrote a cat overlooking story

 

[nixie]

Woops forgot we had three votes

 

[TheDustyZebra]

Why are all the mods the ones forgetting?

 

[Danny McG]

I got a vote! Cheers Lumens.

(Crows like Peter Pan!)

 

[Cathbad]

[David Evil Overlord]

Thanks for the votes, Mad Alice and Stable.

And to all who shortlisted.

 

[Heijan Xavier]

thanks @Stuart Suffel and @Cat's Cradle for the votes! Thanks @Phyrebrat for the mention!

 

[HoopyFrood]

Hula Hoops

Is this me? I don't think, in all my eleven years of HoopyFrood, that I've ever had that one. I like it

 

[Lumens]

I got a vote! Cheers Lumens.

You are very welcome. It was good, and I have a weak spot for meta stories.

Also gave a vote to @TheDustyZebra and @The Judge

I thought having three votes would make it eaiser. It was a mistake to think that.

I am not complaining though! I got two votes! Thanks to whoever voted for me the second time! (I still haven't worked out how to see who voted what)

Click on those two votes next to your name and it brings up a box to say who did what.

Yes @HoopyFrood that was a vote for you! Glad my little nickname didn't offend.

Am I the only one here who knows that in Svengali, 'hoops' translates to cheaty-vote-stealer?

I'd like to remind certain people that I am yet to make my three votes.

Aha, thank you. And thanks to @Tywin for the vote.

Great theme this month. I enjoyed the stories except for the cats. I feel like if you mentioned cats, everything went wrong that could.
