Everyone is standing around wondering who won and stuff.
Well it looks like its time to bring on the Awards! Let's swing our camera around and see if we can see it go up. |
| Well, Erin seems to be getting off work from Bairns & Nibbles.
HmMMM! That seems to give me time try something I always wanted to do! Hehehehehehehe! |
 |
 |
Finally! Erin's Pirate Costume!
Yaa Haa Haa! It does look pretty cool doesn't it? Omigawd! She left the BCTS Legendary Artifacts out! |
| The Master Server Ring!
One ring to rule them all! And the Golden Shoehorn of booting! I think I felt that on my behind once? Ahh! The Tie Clip of Spiffiness! Always adds Charisma when worn! I'd better change back out before I get caught! |

Meanwhile... at the awards ceremony....
Erin walks up to the throne chair. "This year we had our largest number of contestant entries in any contest we have ever had. Before I start with the awards, I would like to thank everyone involved - from the authors and readers alike! It is only by the combined efforts of all of you that we can make this possible. Sephrena, get me the award slips." |
| "Starting at 6th place with a total of 38 votes, we award the prize amount of $25 to author Wren Erindae Phoenix for her entry A Lonely Christmas. Sadly, and from the bottom of my heart, I wish she was here in person to receive the award. Since this is not possible, it will be placed in trust in the BCTS server fund to keep our site alive.
Congratulations Wren on an outstanding story! Hugs." |

"At 5th place, with a total of 39 votes, I award K.T Leone the prize amount of $25 for her entry of A Patch of Ice Christmas Parts 1-10. Well done, and I am looking forward to more of your writing this year too!" |
| "For 4th place, author Maddy Bell won with a total of 47 votes! Her entry Gabrielle Noel garnered her the prize amount of $50! Fantastic Writing Maddy! |  |

"At..."
Tap! Tap! Tap! Extravagance! My eyes are up here! Adjust that camera! |
| Extravagance cuts in and swings the camera to herself.
"For 3rd place, this Extravagant Honorable Samurai Berserker Cat-MegaTomboyauthor awards author Sigh with a vote total of 53 votes for his entry of Cruiser Lake Parts 1-5! Mega grats dear on the $50 you got! Woo hoo!" "Extravagance! Let go of that camera!" "You'll have to catch to me Sephy! Ha ha! woo hoo! Woo hoo! |
 |
 |
"There's a ham on every web site!"
"Okay, Susan Brown took 2nd Place with 60 votes! Her entry, Christmas Changes Chapters 1-6, took the $75 prize! Super writing there Sue! Okay Sephrena, you can do the top winner now." |
| The camera turns to Sephrena.
"The top prize of First Place for the 2012 One Winter's Eve Story Contest is..." |
 |
 |
"...Antifreeze...Parts 1-8 by Bailey Summers. She had the most votes of anyone by a total of 79! She wins the $100 prize!
Sorry Sephy! Hehehehe!" |
| Hmmph!
"Well, we still are not done. Both of us still have 3 more Discretionary winners to pick from the list of those who did not win by voting. Each of those will win $33 each." |
 |

"The first Discretionary pick by Erin is - Song for a Winters Night by Moongoddess! The second pick is - A Home for the Holidays by Andrea DiMaggio!" |

| Erin evilly grinned,"Ohhhhhh... Sephrena, just so you know, I know you wore my Pirate Costume today!"
Gulp! "Ummmmmm..." "Don't try and make up any excuses. No one else wears that Brittany Spears Midnight Fantasy perfume of yours. You got that stuff all over the inside of my cape and outer vest. It reeks of you! Do you think I want to go around smelling you all day? You pay for the dry cleaning tomorrow." Glumly, I admit, "I'm sorry." "Don't be sorry, just get ready for bed." |

Erin moaning while laying face down on the bed. "Well, We did have a great contest this year. You do a good job of getting everyone to join in on them."
"I try. I do it for our authors. I try to inspire everyone." "Inspire this then! I get 70% of your cut on those pictures of me you offered with that doll sale of yours. And how did you get copies made of that Horst Diekgerdes shot of me? I have that locked in my safe!" Finishing snapping up my nightie,"I downloaded that from the Pirate Bay site and printed up 1,000 copies at Kinko's with photo quality poster sheets." Groaning, Erin sullenly said,"You, over there tonight. All by yourself!" |
The BCTS 2012 One Winter's Eve Story Contest is hereby dedicated
to the brave sweet soul of Wren Erindae Phoenix. The lives of those
you have touched have been made better by your presence while you
were here on Earth. With love and hugs from all of us!
We will never forget you!
