Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on December 21, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 3 people
  • Final notes:
    This was a tough contest to judge because you all brought it and brought it in so many different ways that you looked at the word Freedom. to me freedom is not so much succeeding but just in being able to try without being persecuted whether its learning something new or choosing to just do nothing and lay in the grass all day not worried that a tank is gonna run you over i dont know why we have to have wars and why there are some people who think it's their right to kill others because of land and resources or how money should have anything to do with civilization. if it were my world to give everybody would have everything and we would all share our stuff no matter what colors or religions or languages we spoke we would all know that we were free to live our lifes and not need to worry about petty stuff like oil and banks. Anyway back to the contest, really hard to pick winners but i did but you're all winners to me. The gold winner has to PIF and show me their PIF when they do Thanxu to everybody who entered and remember that Christmas is not about how much you get but how much you give, oh and just in case i'm a size 4
