Re: The Newbie Writing Competition '10! (The Final Round Is Here!)

I'm sorry I wasn't able to vote on the last round (mostly on account of all the money I didn't get), but I've just been too busy. I'll totally vote on this one. Congrats to everyone that made it to the final round.

The day of judgement has arrived. I hope I am not the only nervous contender.

Winners, please post in this thread with the prizes you have chosen. Tms must be for the prize Pokémon, not a TM to be used on another or kept in stats.

With that, this contest has drawn to a close. Though the next Newbie Competition will not be until a year from now, to those who wish to write again, why not give the Summer Writing Competition in July a shot?

Wow, this was a close one. Congrats to Minaura and all the winners.

 

Whoa, momma. Knew I should've voted, but that outage...
The fruits of procrastination. I reaps them.

Congrats to Minuara! You wrote a really good story. I loved it; it was definitely my favorite out of all the ones I read, and first-place-worthy.

Claiming prize: Eevee x1

There were quite a few impressive stories; had a blast reading them. Great job to everyone that entered.

Congrats Minuara!

You know you can buy an Eevee in the mart? :flinch: Heck, I'd trade you an Eevee with 5 TMs for a Dunsparce. [/shameless story deal]

Congratulations to the winners, and thanks to those who voted for me. As for my claims of Medium difficulty pokemon?

I'd like to claim my Medium-difficulty pokemon, one Ralts, plus the TM Earthquake.

 

I was like, "eh, whatever."

If I want a Pokemon badly, I figure I can just write for it.
