When I started running contests in 2014, I at first abstained from entering. That soon ended after people started to call for my entries in writing contests after they were over. So blame the crowd, good sir. :wink:

I’m surprised that two of my votes made it, with the third winner being my second runner up choice…I can’t remember a time all of my votes came so close.
Damn, I should’ve bought some lottery tickets too.
Oh well, congratulations to everyone, it was a wonderful turnout of entries!
