Xar, just curious, as I see no mention of it this time in the Contest rules. Were there any additional benefits to entering the contest, other than the possibility of winning, the self-satisfaction of writing and (hopefully) the good will of the AllFather?

One would think that the prizes were already enticing enough... as always, different contests have different benefits...

I never win.
...or place.
Have you ever felt like Charlie Brown on Halloween when everyone else gets candy and he gets a rock?

I wasn't going to mention it, but since Menolly did... I could've sworn when I went to write my entry it was because something had been said about getting something just for entering, and I didn't want to miss out because of the large number of entrants. But after the results went up I looked around and there was nothing to indicate that was the case. Thought I must have just imagined it...
Anyway--grats to the winners.

They were, Xar.
I just tend to feel like Calais about the contests.
(although yeah...I did place once)

Because this new rock was the dust of the Being, it acquired a fraction of each aspect. It had life and death, it had water and weather, it had light and darkness, it had everything and nothing. It was new and old and it was different from any other planet. It was earth.
We are stardust
Billion year old carbon
We are golden
Caught in the devils bargain
And weve got to get ourselves
Back to the garden...
i am sure i'm not alone in saying great work, calais. i personally loved your creation story!!

Though you don't always get a place in a contest, it is still cool (to me) to see other people's writing styles and see in to their RP perspectives. It helps you learn and adapt to become a better RPer, in my opinion.

I thought EVERYONE did a great job. It was difficult to pick a top three. I also think everyone here is a winner just for making the effort. I enjoyed all the stories. Thanks.

Ten HPs to each of my fellow Creationists (except aC, sorry. Not because you don't deserve them, but because I didn't have enough).

I wonder if that's a subtle hint that you would like to get 1000 HP in return for your generosity
