Contest submissions are now closed and the judges will detemine the results! However before that, a few points must be made.
POINT 1
On 1 July, 2003, I received the first entry for the contest, a story titled 'Love Story'. The first line introduces it:
... This was supposed to be a "romantic" lemon for one contest ...
If you are the author of this lemon, you have until Monday to contact me, or else this lemon will be disqualified.
POINT 2
I received one entry with a blank file, titled 'Chronosphere'. I have already alerted the entrant, but this is a more public notice. You have until noon tomorrow to submit the proper version of the story (no blank file) or your entry will be disqualified.
POINT 3
All entries are to be scored by August 30. If any judge fails to score any entry it will be given an automatic score of 75/100.
Reward
The reward for this contest is (as always) being listed at the top of the DaD Author's page until the end of the next contest (October Halloween/Tragedy contest). The additional reward is a request lemon, which may take some time to complete. I intend to complete all my outstanding requests before the end of the October contest, and since I will (hopefully) have a job by then, I hope to offer a better reward for the October contest, in addition to the request lemon.
