First thing is that I want to give a huge THANK YOU to all the participating authors and voters and to those who left feedback. The participation so far has been wonderful!
Second: Starting today, I'll be working to move the round 1 winning stories into their semi-finals groups. Once they move into their new voting group, they won't be visible until semi-final groups start opening again. First group of semi-final stories opens for voting on Monday, November 2nd.
Also remember that November 3rd is national voting day in the US! I hope you all will vote here for stories then go to the polls to vote for your local and national leaders.
Thanks again for all your patience, helpful feedback, and participation.
