~~~Final results to be posted tonight!~~~

[ImmyWimmy1]

~~~~Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and Girls! I am~~~~ ~~~~pleased to declare that the results for the~~~~ ~~~~Cottonwood Jousting Tournament are now in!!!~~~~

~~~*♞*~~~


Before I announce the finalised results, I just wish to emphasise how grateful I am to everyone for the amount of effort they put into this. With everything going on for me right now (I won't go into the details), seeing how much work everyone put into their forms has really cheered me up and help make me smile. I especially loved everyone's poetry and ended up doing dramatic readings of all of them to help me decide on a final score! XD

It was, however, really hard to judge this competition. I even spent several hours drawing up a simple mark scheme to assist me in judging everything! If anyone wants to know the breakdown of their marks, I can give them a copy of the mark scheme and how I scored them in relation to that mark scheme (via PM).

So, without further ado, it's time to announce the winners! ^u^

NB~ The level of detail on your horse will reflect the level of effort I believed you put into your form. Just thought I'd point that one out now.
