Greetings Paradigm City Readers!

First off, I would like to thank everyone for being so patient for the results! Second, I would like to thank all those who participated. I must say, it was difficult to judge as all the works were wonderful!

All right, to the winners:

In the Fanfiction Category (we had a TIE!):
"The Most Wonderful Time of the Year" by Diverse Considerations
"For the Man Who Has Everything" by Pygmalion

In the FanArt Category:
"Heaven's Day Carol" by Tifaria

And lastly, but not least, in the Other category:
"Carol of the Bigs Music Video" by Evan

Congratulations to the winners! I will be contacting you soon about your prizes.

Also, Congratulations to those of you who entered! As I said earlier, all the entries were wonderful!

Again, I would like to thank everyone for participating and making this a GREAT contest! Hopefully next year it will be a little more organized! (Yes, I said next year!) But again, I thank everyone for their patience! And please, check out the wonderful entries!

Congrats and Thank You!

Congratulations to the winners, and thanks to everyone who entered! The fan art and fanfic entries will be available soon (I'll edit the link in when they're ready). Due to bandwidth limitations, the entries from the "Other" category will be available on February 1.

*grabs Pygmalion and spins her around in a hug* It's a tie!!! We won!!!

*composes self*

Congratulations to everyone, I can't wait to read everyone's story and see everyone's artwork and watch that music video which sounds like it should be awesome.

I think it's a darn good mark of talent when the running was so close that it took 22 days for winners to be announced. Everyone be proud of themselves, because I'm proud of you, too. ^_^

And not to sound cocky, but it's my birthday, too! Big Grin

Don't be so vain...there were certainly a few more than two entries in the "Other" category, just so you know. Tongue

Congratulations to all the winners, but I think even more important is the thanks I'd like to extend to all of the participants: the entries were a joy to read/watch/look at, and I can't wait for the next Heaven's Day contest! Big Grin

Also, a big thanks to pen for coming up with and organizing the contest. Big Grin

Well I just didn't think there were going to be as many entries in the "Other" category as in the Fanfics or Fanart ones. That's all I meant Embarrassed Sweatdrop

Thank you so much! I'm still kind of awed that my drawing won! Congrats to the other winners-- I can't wait to read/see the other entries! Happy

Ok, the fanfics are up at a temporary location:
http://www.paradigm-city.com/temp/contest/

I will also upload the fan art to the same place soon. The URL above is only temporary, so please don't bookmark it or link to it since all the entries will be moved into their respective categories on the site itself next time Shredder and I get a chance to update it.

Edit: Ok, fanart is up also. The entries from the Other category will be up in February. Until then, you can view Evan's entry using the link in his post above (thanks, Evan!).
