Flash of Desire - July Season Pass Flash Fiction Tournament

[Shocker]

@Shocker I never intended to insult you or anyone else. As I said, it was typed before I thought it through. I don't view writing as a competition, even when I'm in one. All I was thinking about was how different the two tales were, how well written they were, and how odd it was for poetry to be in a prose competition. I was enamored with the poet, and if it came down to who had the most three's was wondering what would happen if they tied in those as well. I didn't express it that way.

You didn’t insult me. my response was to another comment from RapeU that is no longer here.

My sincerest congratulations and best wishes for success in the final, @Raven Smith and @Dirty Sock !!!

[MillieDynamite]

My warmest regards to all competitors, those still in and all of those now out. Once the deal is all done, I'll vote on all the stories. Well, not mine! But the rest for sure, for sure!

[Lucius]

Congratulations to the finalists, and my thanks to everyone who submitted stories for the previous rounds!

[Dirty Sock]

I wrote two stories for this round and went with what I considered the better of the two. I've gone in six to eight times and changed small bits and pieces of the story after I published it here. In the end, I copied and pasted the original version of the story back into the draft. My mistake was in trying to extend it closer to the max, and increase the accent of the narrator. In the end, at least to me, my first draft, only slightly edited, was the best.

However, I'm considering expanding this into a longer story. @Raven Smith , good luck in the competition, if you win so be it, if I win, so be it only better .

[Raven Smith]

@Dirty Sock I have no doubt, that it will be a delight to read your story.

Since @RapeU is busy at the moment, I'm doing the final announcement of the tournament for him.

The Flash of desire tournament is over! The final ended with a 13 to 10 victory for @Dirty Sock over @Raven Smith, or with a victory of @MillieDynamite over @Shocker.

Congratulations to our winner @MillieDynamite, but also to our runner-up @Shocker! Please check out Millie's winning stories everyone. They will be pinned to the top of the Public Stories board for a while.

A big thank you also to all the other contestant, who competed in the previous rounds: @Lucius, @VictimEyes, @AdmiralPiet, @RapeU, @LtBroccoli

Given the announced end of the forum in November, we don't know yet how much interest there will be in the remaining contests. In August, we'll have another contest for consensual stories similarly to last season's Kristen's Board Memorial contest:

Romance Awareness Contest

But before that, there is also still the July/August community contest with the three prompts: Photograph, Barefoot, Collar

July/August Community Contest

If you're interested in any of the prompts/themes, please feel free to write a story for one of the upcoming contests. Based on what I know, the contests have not been cancelled. If there are enough people willing to compete, I think there is every intention to see these remaining contests through as usual.
