I thought it was a good theme. Neither too specific nor obscure. It did take me a few hours to figure out what my story would be about. Alien abduction was definitely the first thing that came to mind, so I figured that would be too obvious.

That was good thinking on your part. By the way, I quite enjoyed your entry. The twist ending was very clever.

I swear, every single year several people complain about the theme, typically contradicting each other with it being "too broad" or "too specific," or "too easy" or "too challenging," in reference to the same theme. It's an interesting phenomenon to me.

Although more people jumped to aliens! than I would have expected or perhaps preferred, I thought the theme did seem to foster better ideas than an average year.

Guilty...It was strange how mine differed from everyone else's in terms of storylines. Mine was mixed up on the framework but I think that aliens were a right choice...it truly is peculiar. I definitely am fond of all the unique definitions of peculiar in their films.

I HAVE RETURNED!!!

Judging update: I've received ballots from all of the judges. Now I will compile the results and the judges will discuss until we're happy with a top 10. Hoping to have the THAC winners chat next Saturday! Thanks for your patience, everyone! mini/bigsmile

No, it is when there is a ceremony in the chat room to announce the results before the results thread goes up.

Can I assume that there will be a link to the chat?

Edit: I found the chat room. Nevermind.

Re: THAC XIII - Starts NOW!

How will we find the chat? Do we need a particular client? I haven't done a chat in quite some time....

The winners are posted just after the chat is over. (probably within an hour or so) Remember, though,

This goes for both the chat, and the thread afterward, I assume. (This is what's happened the past few years)
