It would be best if everyone read the rules... but I'll except it this one time.

I'm going to expand this contest to a March/April contest. COME ON PEOPLE!! We only had one entry, so we cannot do a contest with that. Superkeelybro will keep the rank for another month, but only because you didn't enter!

We need more entries!! Deadline is April 19. Get your fics in!

[THEBIRD]

You don't have anything to lose. It's not like last place gets some humiliating rank or something >.>... Eh, I'll try and help get some fics in, LS. Hopefully we'll have a few more by the dead line.

A little extra info about the Fic; it's gotten second, thrid, and Honerable Mention a few times in the FOTW on the Old NSider, so it's not bad ^_^

I am extremely diappointed. All this, and only TWO entries? I'll be gone this weekend, so when I get back on Sunday, I better see at least another two entries, or people will get hurt. >_>

It's a dead board... I'll try to convincee (read "blackmail, threaten, etc.) some people into entering. ;)

I've decided to enter this competition in order to pick up pace. This only means that I won't be judging this round; it will only be Birdie and T_L. If one of you could post the winner after you've both judged, that would be great. The deadline is April 28th, 2008. Good luck to all.

[WhiteWingtip]

I won this month, but can I enter again, just with a different fan fic?

Huh? No one has contacted me/posted in the thread that you've won. And yes, you can enter with a different fic.

Because of the lack of entries, I'll only announce first and second place.

Second Place: Born Anew
First Place: Fantasy's End: Ruin of Souls

Birdie of Aces's Comments:

1) Captain Wolf and Sparrow (Whitewingtip)
The grammar and spelling is nice, but things seem to come together much to quickly, almost unrealistically at times. Reproducing the characters just as they were in the movies is always hard, because you need to make sure they're personality is spot on, and I will admit that the Whitewingtip doesn't do is half bad. The biggest issue is how short the chapters are. What could easily be called a few paragraphs, Whitwingtip calls a chapter.

2) Myths of the Forgotten Part 1: Sins (OmegaMasterDeath)
The overall plot is well done and new. Yet, it seems that 'Existence' wasn't given a good enough reason to be so angry, and that should have been explained a bit better. The grammar and spelling is all right, but the biggest pain is how short the chapters are. They are barely half of chapters, and yet they are rewarded with titles for the few paragraphs.

3) Fantasy's End: Ruin of Souls (X_Hero)
An excellent, excellent piece of work! A lot of the Nintendo franchises are woven in nicely, as well as complimentary grammar and spelling. The chapters are long, meaning a good read, and the characters are believable. I applaud X_Hero for creating a decent fic in this ghost town of a board.

4) Born Anew (LightningSword)
A chilling One shot talking about the sensitive subject of death. It is short for a One shot, as these are usually quite lengthy. But what is lacks in length it makes up for in grammar, spelling, and a great story line! Some things did confuse me, like why the trainer still only had a Squirtle and Charmander after all those years, but the overall theme really pushes those questions out of your mind. At the end of the day, it really is a great One shot.

Congratulations, X_Hero! I'll be sure to PM P_Y to give you the rank as soon as possible. Thank you for entering to all.

Deadline for current FFotM entries: Saturday, May 31.

Whoa, wait, I won? Wow... Not sure I saw that one coming. XD
