Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on May 1, 2007
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100
  • Final notes:
    A difficult contest to judge. I knew I was in for it when I chose something so dark. But I went with the following definitions...
    Poignant - Arousing sympathy…deeply moving…keenly felt, yet not desperate or lacking hope
    Pitiful – pitiable…sorrow for another’s suffering…cause for regret…concerned..sense of desperation...

    Well done all.

    Thank you so much for the silver. I know I entered at the latest possible moment, lol, but it was just one of those instances when something comes when it comes and not a moment sooner. I thank you for the trophy, but I'm really just glad it didn't suck
