Griff demands a recount! :lol: Yours was certainly very clever, G_G. ^__^ I think all the extras were those wonderful procrastinators. <.< >.> I used to be one, but I missed one to many contest deadlines and try to be a little more punctual now.

Lol, I didn't want to be the first to say procrastinators :sweat: Yep, that's part of the reason why I havent participated in the previous contests. It just so happened that I drew that picture before I thought about putting it in the contest :eyeroll:

You know what I think? :shady:...That pocky that Aka-chan has been passing out has hypnotic drugs in them :shady: And I know, I gave her the recipe! :shady:

(Drat, there's a maximum number of smilies?? Boooooo.)

Griff, speaking as a judge I was very torn between yours and Aka-chan's--I thought it was so wonderful that someone (Bakura_fan did too) picked up on a kind of love that is far more important and far greater than any purely romantic love we as humans experience---and that is the divine love of Christ.

:lol: that was really funny, Shooby!


Back to topic, all I know is that judges submit their choices privately to Inky and will never know what other judges voted for. ^_^

Everyone did a great job, pls keep it up!

Yep. ^_^ But then again I like to be drastically different in my way of thinking so I tried not to go for the obvious ^_^ Funny though, because I was thinking nearly everyone would go for the same idea o_0

Hey you! If you didn't use up all of the smilies already I'll give you a not so happy looking face for teasing me on my use of smilies! T_T. I like using the smilies to convey my "serious but playful" moods. :p

(yikes, now that I think about it those faces are discouraging o_0 )
