Singing in the Rain

Voting and Critique




It's TIME TO V-V-V-VOTE!

I encourage everyone that cares about the Contests(and if you don't already, I encourage you to begin now) to read through all of the wonderful entries submitted in the past two weeks, and cast their vote for their favorite! The submission with the most votes will be posted in a stickied "Trophy Case" thread where it will be displayed for all to see, and its author added to the list of Meritorious Writers at the very top!

Of course, this thread is also for critiquing. Note I said critiquing, not shitslinging. Constructive criticism only, please. Feel free to go through any one or all of the entries and give your two cents in helping your fellow writers improve! Those that have entered this contest are absolutely allowed to critique each others' works, contestants can absolutely vote, though not for their own, obviously.

Needless to say, using multiple accounts to vote more than once is NOT ALLOWED, and if an author uses alts to vote for their own work, they will be disqualified on the spot and disbarred from entering any future Contests.

Please vote based on the merits of the work, not for the sake of a clique or just because the author happens to be your friend. And mostly certainly do not attempt to have an author falsely disqualified because you don't happen to like them, because I'll fucking find out and it won't be pretty.

Not even a vote? Shameful. Not enough attention span here to properly review anything, but for the poor bastard in entry one, at least he gets one vote.

Huh, voting. Strange but ok.

Well, I would never criticize anything, seeing how most of you guys and galls here certainly having a much better grammar and a much longer lists of vocabularies compared to mine so I don't think I could given any criticize over that. So I guess I'm just gonna say the vote then.

I vote for Campanula Raineri by [@Ducksong]



Note: In Abate, my only note is to replace the phrase "It bled money" to "It breed fortunes" or something like that. Aside from that, all good to me.

My Reviews:










Final Thoughts/Vote: In sheer terms of writing quality I may have picked Monsoon on Maradûn. But if I'm going with fitting the theme, and taking over thousand words less it took for me to care/empathize with the characters in said story. My pick goes to 'Campanula Raineri' by @Dusksong

Just in time!



I was kind of busy this month, but I think I was able to write up some half-competent reviews.

@Dusksong Ah. My bad. The U.K and American thing gets me a lot of the time. And I see, yeah the alliteration attempt went over my head.

@BrokenPromise Yay. Not the only one reviewing things. :P

@SleepingSilence Actually I think I'm the one at fault since usually writers should stick to one or the other. However, I don't really feel like making it a point to change, unless I'm going to change for the British version haha

@BrokenPromise It was supposed to say "The other fellow rolled his eyes in a most rude manner and scurried away." Apparently I misplaced a word.
