Hi!  I'm not sure why my registration from a few weeks back has disappeared, so I've re-registered.  I'd love to be able to see the stories to vote!

Am I too late? My account seems to have gotten deleted and I remade it.

I am having SO MUCH fun!!! It's like getting free rein in a candy shop. Trying so hard to comment on all of them! What powerful and magnificent imaginations you all have, and what a privilege it is reading your work.

An average of 36 voters in the first round.
An average of 29 voters so far in the semi-finals.

I have nothing to make of that data. It's just something to note while waiting until Oct 31's finals.  ;)

That's typical of most of our contests - we normally have some attrition after the first round. I think some people aren't as interested once there are no new stories to read, and others may be authors who are disappointed their stories didn't progress and don't want to participate any more.
