Unfortunately, I'm likely to be too busy with other things now to be able to finish it off :( .

Wow, forgot about this. Still open until I grade. Hard with this semester. I'm willing to let someone else grade them if they want to; if not I will get to it eventually.

Well, with the only entry, PL wins!

My suggestions to improve your writing (I'll do this for everyone):
-use more description
-don't sound rushed, but explain parts out
-good job with the plot, though I would have liked more action with the characters and Darkside
-got a bit confused with the plastic swords and skeletons and how these were relevant
-more traps would have been cool

This concludes the contest. PL gets the pink ribbon!

So, it was good enough to be ribbon-worthy?

Congrats, Daniel!

That was my first thought, actually (as in, "how did that get a ribbon?").

I hope you enjoyed reading it, though, Adam :) .

In my opinion, I wouldn't have given a ribbon for the story itself.

But I know PL has worked hard on it, and I know he's participated in pretty much every contest and if there were a ribbon for "Participating in the Most Contests" award, I'd give him this instead. I really appreciate the effort and participation and I think this needs to be noted. Every contest I see PL has entered. Maybe he should get a special contributions ribbon instead?

I've awarded the ribbon now. Well done once again :) .

Time to archive this, I guess.
