Congratulations!!!!!
For those who didn't make it past this round, please remember how subjective this is and keep working. There were some I really liked that didn't make it through, so keep those chins up.
Thanks to everyone who participated! And thanks to our amazing Bouncers for their time and hard work! You guys are amazing.
I am asking all the winners not to email me with changes or updates to their entry. I'm really sorry about this, but there isn't time to offer the same service to those up next week before the agent round starts. These entries will go to the agent round as is. Thanks for being understanding!
Now check out our Q&A with the Bouncers going on all day!
P.S. Does anyone know why Blogger insists on publishing spaces between paragraphs that aren't there? Argh! Stupid Blogger! :)
YAAY! Congrats to all those who got in!!! ^_^
ReplyDeleteHooray, and congrats to all moving on to the next round!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this brilliant idea - it's exciting! For next week, does this mean the agent competition will begin on Monday?
ReplyDeleteWow! So many made it through! Congrats to all, even those who were brave enough to post without coming this far. Good luck to everyone!
ReplyDeleteFantastic list!
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Bouncers. You have a tough job.
Regarding taming Blogger and curing its whimsical ways:
Try crossing your eyes, turn clockwise four times while spitting over your left shoulder.
Or use the Google Chrome browser. I finally gave in and changed from IE and Blogger worked better. *sigh*
Congrats to the winners, and I agree with Cupid, those who didn't make it through need to hold their chins high. Reading over the entries it was clear, this is a pretty competitive group of entries. AND we've got the second set of entries going up next week. The agents are going to have some work cut out for them. :D
ReplyDeleteIs there a link to the Bouncers Q&A?
ReplyDeleteOoops. I found the link to the Q&A.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to all those moving on! The Bouncers had a tough job and there were some that I liked that didn't make it, as well.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Blogger does that to me, too. I don't know why, but I can tell you that I use Chrome and it doesn't help. :(
Congratulations to all of those who made it! There were so many amazing entries - I loved reading all of the queries.
ReplyDeleteRe: blogger - it happens to me, too. I usually just do all of my posts in the HTML view mode. It's a little less bothersome.
Well done everyone! This was fun - honestly. Cupid, thank you for your hard work. You could try HTML view re:spacing.
ReplyDeleteHappiest to see the donations for Baby Britta!
B.
Thanks bouncers and well-wishers and Cupid! This has been super fun. I'm excited to see how those arrows get used. I'm hoping there's enough for everyone!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to everyone who made it through!!!
ReplyDeleteWhenever blogger does this to me, what I do is ctrl A to all the text in the post, then select font and go to default font. Sometimes when copying from email or word, the formatting gets all out of whack. Seems to have worked for me though :)
Congrats! :) Really excited to see how it all goes!
