And stock was bought in Metamucil, for it calmed the stomach nerves of anticipation....

Thank you kindly Tacete, in it's own little way, I feel this comp has finally let me get to know you, aha

folks, as you know, I'm a man of modesty and shyness, this limelight is taking its toll, It's the poets and scorers done the hard work, but if you feel the urge to thank me,  simply put one of these after your posts here or any other threads on the site and I'll know its for me

We can all agree that this comp has been one of the most suspense built, cliffhangers at every turn, the best of the best..thanks to our amazing host Mr. Lep aka

Case, congratulations for well deserved win!

Pm, congratulations for runners up, great job!

Lastly, I'd like to share a quote by Jose Ortega Y Gasset:

" There may be as much nobility in being last as in being first, because the two positions are equally necessary in the world, one compliments the other!"

Congratulations to everyone who participated in this comp, it was a pleasure reading all your work, you are all winners in the end!!

Well done Petit Minou and all the poets that entered the comp. It was the high standard of poetry that made this comp so challenging, no one was holding back, I think we pushed each other to produce some of our best poetry. [applause]

Thank you to the judges, who had the toughest job to decipher, critique and then compare these poems. Thank you to all three of you, much respect. [applause]

Also, thanks to the poets who followed the comp and threw their support behind the poets and their poems. Your words of encouragement is what kept us pushing ourselves. [applause]

thanks for such a gripping and challenging comp. I admire your ness that shone through the carefully orchestrated chaos of Intergalactic Nuclearball (Fusion rules). I'm honoured just to be apart of it.
