October 2013 Costumes Contest Voting! |
Okay!
Due to circumstances beyond Erin's control, I am going to have to initiate the voting myself. Please PM me here with your 4 choices for the winner. Please entitle your PM "October 2013 Costumes Contest" to make it easier for me to spot the PM's and sort them into a tally. Voting will continue until 6 pm Pacific time on October 31, 2013.
I will release the results of the contest at 10 pm Pacific time on October 31, 2013.
Only registered site users may vote.
Only 1 account of any user can be used to vote.
I wish circumstances for the voting could have been better. My apologies.

...and my little dog, too? Your picture of Margaret Hamilton acted as a reminder of the Wizard of Oz, which led to one of my entries. Thanks for the inspiration and even more so for all the work you do to make these contests enjoyable.
Love, Andrea Lena
Seconded
I second what Aunt Andrea said.
Keep up the good work!

So many stories..
I have a lot more reading to do!!
A humungous thank you to all the authors! As I can only vote for 4 at one time - can I vote vote for 4 - 8 more times??
Thanks to Sephrena for organizing this lovely, scary, horror filled library.

May the sun always shine on your parade
Only vote for
one set of your four top favorites ^^

What?
...I thought it was 'Vote early and vote often?' Oh wait; that's Chicago, not the Closet. And what about that other thing?
"If she puts on a bra and tap pants, you put on a full slip! If she puts you in a a gender clinic in Denver, you ....." Oh wait....that's The Unmentionables, directed by Briana De Palma, right? Oh poo....
Love, Andrea Lena
The Chicago Way
They pull out panties, you pull a bra. He puts one of yours in lingerie, you out one of his on hormones. *That's* the *Chicago* way!
Drea and Val
Don't stop! This has the makings of a funny story. :)

And THAT...
....is how you get Alfonsa (Don't Call Me Al) Capone!
Love, Andrea Lena

I can't vote.
Clicking the link as instructed takes me to a page to which I am denied access, on the grounds that I am not logged in.
I think I got the same page,
I think I got the same page, there were login boxes on that page. I logged in and it sent me to Sephrena's PM page.

You must be logged in
in order to vote.
And OOOPS! >< I made a booboo in constructing that link. Sorry :(

Choosing 8 would have been
hard, but choosing 4 was almost impossible almost considered throwing darts at a list of 12
Goddess Bless you
Love Desiree
This is going to take-
awhile! I'm steadily working my way down the list of stories I missed when they came out. I am glad I kept up with the longer ones like Bailey's because all these others are taking me a long time to read. I'm glad we have a week left to read them all!
hugs
Grover
Eeny, Meeny, Miney, mo!
So choosing 4 from 36 - looks as though I'm going to be busy reading over the next few days :)
Well, in reality, choosing 3 from 34 as I've already chosen one and I'm not vain enough to vote for myself (so eliminating one) :)
As the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body, then only left-handers are in their right mind!
How am I supposed to pick
How am I supposed to pick just four???
Tough!
I know! I just sent mine off and it wasn't easy. This has got to be one of the toughest contests yet. There were so many great entries and they cover just about every angle you can think of.
I picked two of what I thought were the best and the last two were personal favorites based on subject. It was the best I could do!
hugs
Grover
How is the voting going?
Do you have any early results in the voting? I've tried to send in my votes already.
You know darn well
I cannot reveal any hints about the results until the posted time :)
It's more fun waiting to see... and a few more gray hairs from stressing out over it too ^^ hehehee
But we do need more people voting!
Sephrena
They Will Vote
Just that some of them do not have access to a dart board. I suppose they could write the numbers down and pick four from a hat bowl or some other device that could be used like that. Or maybe write a random number generator for the numbers 1 to 36, though it kept coming up 16 so I had to ignore it.
So I took the most memorable which were a total of 12(for me at least) Then I was able to pare them down to 8 then 4 how I do not know it may be the Quads kicking me in such a manner that made me select the ones I did.
Goddess Bless you
Love Desiree
I voted
after the link was fixed. = ) It was easy for me, since I already knew exactly which four I wanted to vote for.
Can't vote
Even with the repaired link, I still can not vote. Well maybe I will be able to next time.
Hard to pick so many good ones!
It's really hard to get it down to only four stories, they are all good and quite few are stand out good, way more then four.
*huggles & pixie dust to all the writers*
