Remember a few days ago, I said Fanfiction has the highest benchmark, at 85%?

Well, scrape that.

Those who wins have their score equal or above 95% (meaning at least 52.25/55).

I doubt any other category will reach this high benchmark. Next time this happens, I'm re-judging everything myself. My heart cannot handle these high marks and my mind doesn't sit well with it. Though it's very interesting to see the differences between ideologies of evaluating books between me (aka the heartless monster that deducted marks as a lovely hobby) and these kind-hearted judges (who praises and encouraging the contestants).

Anyhow, but here we are. And somehow the number works out.

The following list is in no particular order. I've bold the book title and username, italicize the score, for easier view.

The winner list is at the end of the chapter.

This was so creative especially with the documents and forms within the story (Did you make those??). Is it weird that I've always wanted to go to an Asylum? Not be admitted... but I'd like to visit, maybe volunteer. Anyway... sorry. Lol. It was very creative! Great job!)

4. In a world of Miscreants (Sweet Nightmares) by @osbert_dw

I liked the title. This was very interesting! The chapter has you wanting to read more especially after the random unknown text message at the end. I'd be like, "Umm... Whaaaaaaaaaat? SOS."

5. The Naughty List Purge by @DoveReign

52.5/55

I liked the title, but you almost didn't get judged because the username was changed. Luckily, you kept "Dove Reign" on the cover because authorrrrrrrr, you had me searching for this book! Lol. <3 This was very creative though and I enjoyed reading it. Awesome job, my friend (Can I call you a friend or did I overstep my boundaries because we don't know each other?).

45.25/55

I liked the title. I want me a bachelor! Heyyyyyyyyyyy. *winks* Very creative and interesting! You said, that this was a part of a series that you spent majority of your life working on, life well spent. I applaud you *smiles* Btw, is this a real movie?? Because it should be! I wanna star in it. I've always wanted to act. *flips hair*

10. The Girl in the White Nightie by @Socialrecluse

48.25/55

The title was change had your girl confused even if it was by one word. Haha. I was trying to adapt to the cover because I was looking at it like a piece of art from Picasso or Leonardo Da Vinci or one of them. Haha. Overall this was very powerful, saddening, shocking, creative and interesting. Great job!! Hot damn!

Winners, contact me if you want to receive the sticker.

Also.

Like, come on, guys, TELL ME IF YOU CHANGED YOUR BOOK TITLES OR DELETE/CHANGE/WHATEVER. How long does it take you? 1 minutes of typing up a line?

I do my bit, the judges do their bits, you do yours. Do you know how annoyed I was, knowing these judges have to spend their time, digging for your books? Judges are not supposed to do that.

We need time to judge, not finding lost books. I need time to PM people and pushing deadlines, not finding your little stray books.

IF ANOTHER JUDGE HAS TO DO DEDICATED HIS/HER TIME FOR THIS CRAP, I'LL DISCARD THE RESULTS AND THE BOOK.
