A couple of odd things:
Each entry at least appeared once in the top three of each judges' picks.

Innocence and Purity results were varied as each judge gave it a different ranking from Comrade placing it tied for 1st to Togashi's 5th place vote for it.

This was an interesting contest, and until the final results came in, I wasn't certain how things would turn out.

Heart Beat had issues of character believability.

The Silver Dolphin was obviously the start of a series and left much to be desired because of that fact.

True Love ran into problems with the protrayal of Matt.

Innocence and Purity was very solid, but it lacked something. I'm not sure what it would be, though, as some enjoyed it completely while others did not. That David was fanmade didn't help.

Suffer only, ah, suffered from horrible grammar. It would've been sad if Red lost for only that reason.

Weather Changes simplicity and lack of originality are the only failings of this otherwise beautiful story.
