Let the competition begin in earnest, and let me be frank about this, why are people named Ernest and Frank and why do we use their names like we do?

Again, read and vote. :) I hope I come in at least in fourth place.

One teeny, tiny complaint, I can't watch the voting progress without voting. I do not always vote for any story in the contest, but I like to watch the votes.


Oops missed this tidbit.

It was tough to choose two. The other three were much better than mine was by far.

Yeah, this was a decision on my part alone, and I justified it to myself with the explanation that, if no-one can see the results until after, they're more inclined to be honest about their votes instead of following the trend at the time. Depending on how things go, this may change in the future.

No argument from me. I didn't realize that option existed.

Thanks, Army for facilitating. I agree a secret vote until all the results are in is best.
Good luck to everyone!

I finally voted, I have read each story three times. That is just how difficult it was to make up my mind this month. I'm holding my breath, waiting for the results. Okay, I'm not actually holding my breath.

If votes are as high as the views we should have a lively contest going this month. So, I'm hopeful. I do know, a lot of non members, use these contest to find stories to read. Still, I am so hoping we can have a good turn out on the voting.

Let me say the following, we now approach the hour of the great revel of the first poll of the newly revamped Great Monthly Ravish U writing contest. I find it a privilege and a pleasure to be in the company of the other three contestants. All the work is excellent. All of you deserve the top spot. I’ll gaze at the victor, knowing I did my best. And I’ll be bloodied but not bowed, just giving you a nod to show you won. Best of luck to each of you, RapeU, SoftGameHunter, and EnabranTain. Remember, in the next competition, we all begin as equals.

That was close. I'm actually surprised that someone voted for mine. I'm going to have to rework that story at some point. It got off to a great start but I couldn't figure out how to end it. Also there's something missing from it besides a better ending, but I'm not quite sure what.

I enjoyed the story, RapeU, loved the woman getting away and the man trapped. :) You may be right about needed some punch to it or something. I can't honestly say I know what would improve the work. It one of things were you just need to read and read until the light bulb blinds you.

I had a longer outline to the story i wrote. But the outline would take me down a road I couldn't go because of the restriction of the single room function. I outlined, and started, a different story which I may complete at some point.

I'm just happy you guys, and especially army of one, is keeping the contest going.

Editing my post, sorry RapeU, I did enjoy your story, but I was thinking of Escape Room by EnabranTain when I made the comment. I'll have a read through again on yours. Forgive my stupidity, please, RapeU.
