Telegram Sam Blue Republic RvB - BLUE Republic 1288	Posted - 2013.12.30 19:31:00 - [96] - Quote Yes, two of the judges (CCP Eterne and CCP Falcon) are community relations devs.
Callista Dalmore Phoibe Enterprises 0	Posted - 2013.12.30 22:46:00 - [97] - Quote Callista looks over the assembled dignitaries and wonders once again why she didn't wear the white dress instead of the blue. Oh, well, no turning back now. When The Honorable Telegram Sam calls her name and the weight of everyone's stare turns her way, her blush goes from rosy to deep crimson. She rises from her table to the sound of polite applause. As she makes her way to the raised dias, the trid-reps jostle for position. Well, not as much as for Rhavas, mind you. Standing at the podium, the lights shining down on the stage blaze and she blinks back nervous tears. As she adjusts the mic, the timer starts counting down, 30 seconds. Well at millions of isk per minute commercial time, they sure as hell weren't going to waste it on yet another boring victory speech. So, as practiced in front of the holovid in her mack, she leaned forward just enough for her dress to accentuate her camera shy "assets", gave a big great smile and began, "I would like to thank the judges for the time and effort it must have taken them to go through the hundreds of pages of text. I would also like to thank the incredibly generous sponsors who encourage all of us writers to slip out of our pods and fire up our word processors. But I would like to especially thank Sam for having pulled this even together once again. Sam, this is for you..." and looking right into camera 1, she winks and blows a kiss. "See you all next year!" And then, relieved that it's done, she walks down the stairs and off into the wing, with fifteen seconds left on the clock.
Jalep Malukker Mecha Enterprises Fleet 10	Posted - 2013.12.31 02:03:00 - [98] - Quote "Jalep. Jalep!" Jemica whispered as loud as she could, forcing her breath from the back of her throat. I was busy. "Just.. a few more... inches..." Carefully, I worked the eight legged insectoid robot towards Rhavas' wallet. As it slowly crawled towards the Grand Prize winner, my mind began to drift, dreaming of what I'd do when I relieved him of his newly won Plex. "Almost.. got it." I nudge the controls with painstaking care. "JALEP! You won!" She yelped, grabbing my shoulders, jostling the controls and sending my robotic thief skittering wayward across the floor and into Da'iel Zehn's boots. "No. I didn't - look: Now Rhavas is moving his wallet to his front pocket - I'll never snag it now." I grumble, patting my own pockets in search of a pack of cigarettes. "No, you won First Place in the Day in the Life Category, you lug!" Her eyes were glimmering. For a second I consider what 'second cousins' really means and how much it matters, before snapping back to the moment at hand. "I did what? With my story?" I drop the cigarettes in shock. By this point ushers are guiding me to the raised dais and a fog of emotion is gathering around my thoughts. My legs feel weak. I meander over to the podium. I squint as I look up, trying to find Jemica in the crowd. The spotlight is too bright. I lean over the microphone, holding my hand over my brow to shield the spotlight. "Umm. Thank... you." When did my mouth get this dry? "Thank you to... everyone who..." My mind is a broken jigsaw puzzle. Words are eluding me. I try to focus. It's not working. I stop for a second to compose my thoughts. "Thank you to everyone who put this... great contest together. Thank you, again." I look up and see the timer is almost at zero. I turn, confused and try to find the exit. "Yeah, bang up job on that speech, Jalep" I mutter to myself as I am guided back stage. It didn't cover what I wanted to say. Not even close. What I had meant to say, were my thoughts not a jumbled, confused mess. Was how deeply humbled I was to be chosen from among such a wonderful collection of stories written by such talented writers. What I had wanted to say was how impressed I was by the quality of the works submitted. How they had all clearly been toiled over and been written with great passion. But none of that came out. Had I not been so completely surprised by the outcome, I had meant ]to thank Sam, CCP Eterne, CCP Falcon, and Mike Azariah for taking time from their busy schedules to read all the stories and provide thoughtful scoring on each. How this contest adds to the richness that is New Eden and highlights just how amazing the community surrounding it is. As I head back stage, I reach into my jacket pocket and pull out a pen. "Better start making notes for next year's story."
Jakob Anedalle Faux.Pas 70	Posted - 2013.12.31 02:10:00 - [99] - Quote Wow, I'm thrilled. The prize for Taking His Medicine will be converted to ISK and shortly thereafter converted to wrecks of ships. Given my killboard, mostly my own. Thank you, Pod and Planet sponsors! Trying out all the things to do here in Eve - it's quite a checklist. So I made a blog Jakob's Eve Checklist

Each story had a tangible uniqueness to it - great to read and get into others' experiences and imaginings. I'm looking forward to the next contest.

As its Christmas and they are marking in their free time, I think it's safe to cut them some slack. I know I've been super busy this holiday EDIT: I was going to put "Patience young one. All in good time." But as I started typing it I forgot what I was putting (until after I had already posted) Second: What ? Do I have to understand this ?
