False Memory Contest WINNER ANNOUNCED!

Hello Beardies,

I do apologize in the delay of this post, but I am sure the wait is worth it for the lucky Contest Entrant... Before I reveal it however, I want to describe the process for determining the winner.


Unfortunately, there were only 3 entries for the contest.  On the bright side, however, it made the task of scoring them a quick one when I finally found the time (I recently started a second job--YIKES!--if you were wondering what caused the delay).

Elizabeth and I read and scored the entries independently of one another and then shared them after the fact, which makes it all the more frightening when the scores for the winning entry turned up with the EXACT same breakdown.  I won't bother quoting the ever-famous proverb.

The FINAL scores were calculated using the average of both our final scores for each contestant.

So, without further delay, here are the scores...

Joshua's Scores:
	Alyssa Susanna	Lynn Volovic Rosin	Oscar Montepeque
Following Instructions (30):	30	30	22
Originality/Creativity (45):	38	27	34
Overall Quality (125):	107	87	85
World Building (75):	68	58	65
Characterization (75):	70	57	52
Joshua's Totals (350):	313	259	258
Elizabeth's Scores:
	Alyssa Susanna	Lynn Volovic Rosin	Oscar Montepeque
Following Instructions (30):	30	30	20
Originality/Creativity (45):	38	35	40

Elizabeth's Totals (350):	313	265	262
