Not that I'd have come close to winning this one anyway, but it would have been fun to take part.Loganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03769758118827489093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8301854188587462574.post-52054719696324038862017-04-07T14:37:36.984+01:002017-04-07T14:37:36.984+01:00That was quite a show, wasn't it?

I'm still trying to catch up with all those new fics, and I was a slow fimfiction reader to begin with. :(<br /><br />I didn't bother trying to predict who the top three were going to be. So many people took part and blew FoME's expectations out of the water that the only thing I became reasonably sure of was this: 'tweren't gonna be me, not by a long shot (especially given what a hash I made of my own participation). Still, it was fun. :)<br /><br />Can't wait for the next one...Impossible Numbershttp://www.fimfiction.net/user/Impossible%20Numbersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8301854188587462574.post-55796276380242061252017-04-03T02:42:47.016+01:002017-04-03T02:42:47.016+01:00I think someone with a four-figure follower count ...I think someone with a four-figure follower count is a heavyweight by definition to most of us! But yeah, it was interesting that probably nobody would have predicted that top three.Loganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03769758118827489093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8301854188587462574.post-21573249091527008242017-04-02T17:38:11.944+01:002017-04-02T17:38:11.944+01:00Yeah, that 18k words length scared some people awa...Yeah, that 18k words length scared some people away at first -- but hey, the story did well anyway, and it actually won. So, happy endings for everybody! Hahah.<br /><br />It's really long, yeah.<br /><br />I mean, at least most of the readers -- and the judges, actually -- said that it didn't FEEL that long 'cause the pacing is fast, so there's that.<br /><br />It is weird, however, that none of the heavyweights won. Skywriter, Ghost of Heraclitus, Bookplayer... I seriously thought those three were going to take the prize, and I was honestly surprised when they didn't. Really weird. At least MrNumbers got a mention. Jury's out on if I count as a heavyweight, though it's true that I have more followers than the other two people in the podium, so I guess in a relative sense I am.<br /><br />Anyway, looking forward to that not-too-distant review roundup. That's gotta be interesting.Aragonhttps://www.fimfiction.net/user/Aragonnoreply@blogger.com
