Good job! It's too bad you couldn't stay in the top 25, though. :(

Not to sound like a whiner, but then they'd just have had to cheat a little harder to pass me. :P  Seriously, one entry suddenly gave themselves about 400 votes in two hours, and as the last ten minutes passed, the two in 25th place were racing to outvote each other.

Still, waiting to see if there are any 'adjustments' to the winners list feels like waiting for Al Gore to be confirmed as President. :P I mean, the one person who posted right on their Facebook that they were voting for their 150 Facebook friends still didn't get disqualified for over three weeks after several people reported it.

DEFENSE!! DEFENSE!!___OFFENSE!! OFFENSE!!

Thanks for the support, guys! I finished at #27.  Always a possibility that after review, there will be a few more disqualifications among the top ranks, but if not, I'm proud to be #27 out of 406!
Hey, I didn't win the HP Netbook 'puter either so don't feel bad. :e_tongue:

#27 is pretty darn impressive just the same!
Considering the number of entrants, that in itself is a good achievement and deserves my congrats. :ehail:

I got an e-mail today saying that I had won one of the runner-up prizes, a Nikon Coolpix camera!  Thanks so much for all the help and support!  Couldn't have done it without you guys!

I'll be sure to squeeze some Excel Saga art into my future schedule to celebrate! :D

BTW: Rereading the mangas: my favorite Excel Quote of the moment is "I used to walk the path of righteousness, but now my feet are covered by the bunions of moral compromise." (Excel, Book 2)
