We sure had a lot of entries! Thanks to everyone who did, we will announce the winners as soon as we can, good luck! Hello everybody. I have been away for a while. But I have been checking the entries on the board. I know that you are all anxious for the announcement of the contest winners. So, I just wanted to explain a little about the judging process for the contest and why it takes so long. I am speaking for myself but I think other judges will agree that we received a lot of very good entries- 91 in all. We take the responsibility of judging your entries very seriously. We are not just going to pick randomly. If you spent hours working on your entry, we want you to know that we are going to spend hours reading, and re-reading entries, making notes, and selecting the winners based on the contest rules including rule number 4: (4) Please remember that the thoughtfulness, descriptiveness, creativity and uniqueness of answers will be considered when selecting the winners. All this takes some time. In order to be fair, after reading a few entries we must stop for a while, so that the next batch of entries will be as fresh as the first batch. But be assured that we are working on this and will be announcing the winners soon. We wish that everybody could win. But not only is this financially unreasonable, it would also cheapen the value of the entries that many people worked very hard to prepare. With 33 prizes and 91 entries, you have better than a 1 in 3 chance of winning something, so hang in there. And if you are not selected as a winner this time, don’t give up. We are already planning something special for our next contest. In the meantime, we hope that you will continue to visit and participate in the forum. Your thoughts and opinions are valued and respected here; so don’t be afraid to join in the discussions about the wondrously talented singer, songwriter, actor, performer, and entertainer known as Greyson Chance.

What was that Glogster contest? It was a contest on another site (maybe Glogster.com?). I don't know much about it but I saw the entries posted by some of our forum members and I thought that they were very good.

I know its been a week, and I know that you are all waiting.....just waiting.... And I know that the admins are waiting on my share of the work. Ive stayed up till 4:00 am several times this week working on this but I have also been dealing with some health issues. I must confess that it is much harder to pick 33 winners instead of one or two. There are always entries that stand out at the top, but when you get into trying to decide winners 10 - 33 and pick one over another, it gets harder. I told you we are taking this seriously. But we have narrowed down and selected our primary winners. Now we are going back re-reading, highlighting, and selecting secondary winners. Then we will have to go back for a final sweep. Then, the judges will have to compare notes to confirm the final winners. So please hang in there and be patient. We ARE working on it.

Oh, well. It's great that djtiny, grownups4greyson (get well soon!) and mapender are taking care to pick the winners based on best entry and not randomly pick 33. It does sound hard! We'll wait paitently for the winners. EnChancers wait paitently.

UPDATE: The judges are comparing their respective choices and making final adjustments. Barring unforseen complications we should be able to announce the winners before Thanksgiving.
