so i guess as of next week, we'll be over the halfway hump of this grand experiment.
how's the experience been for you so far?

Less than 1/3! I didn't enter the contest, but haven't missed a vote yet.
Less than that. I didn't enter, but I've been voting every week. I wonder how many of the other 100 didn't enter but are faithfully supporting the contest. (I just saw that Rose is another one!)BlueTexas said:I'm disspointed in the constant low number of 100 people voting every week. Not saying that everyone should care, but only 1/3 of the people who entered are voting.
I don't like to say who I voted for while voting is still going on. Actually, I've never said who I voted for afterwards, either. I usually PM the author to let them know, though. Except I forgot to do so last week, unfortunately.I've never been shy about posting on JUSTIFY YOUR VOTE exactly who I voted for, and why.
Again, I'm hesitant to do so while voting is going on, and I don't want to criticize specific stories publicly, which is why I only make general comments. For this week, I found that all of the stories followed the guidelines, which was good to see. One story was good but I couldn't vote for it because of the grammatical errors -- this has prevented me from voting for this author throughout the contest. A few stories I couldn't relate to. One story I found confusing in a specific way and that kept distracting me, otherwise I might have voted for it.The Justify Your Vote thread has been very informative. I wish more people would post their thoughts there.
What about you, William?
