I shall wait, then, with a Zen-like patience.

I remember judging this once.
I donated to VGF and all I got was this one-liner

Bump... with a scene from Lady Snowblood for your enjoyment. Things you might recognize from my writing: underhanded sword-style, sand-bomb attack, soft-speaking, close-ups of her eyes (though you don't really see Meiko's stare of death),

You should add that to your character's profile too.

Thank you for your patience.

I arrived back in Perth last night, exhausted but truly deep-down happy with my time in the USA. However, I'm not with it today. My body clock is all screwy and can't work out when I should sleep. XD

I'm looking forward to reading and judging this. I shall print it up shortly, and you can expect me to have done it by the end of the week as I'm taking it fairly easy until I'm able to concentrate properly again. ;)

I've been patiently waiting to a judgement to listen to.

*tears, coughcoughcough, wheeze* I've been quite sick and it's phenomenally difficult for me to think normal things through properly. Instead of making you wait any longer, I'll give you your scores, and if you desire an actual "judgement" of your posts when I'm feeling better, I can manage that. Sorry very much, guys. *hugs* (suppose you're lucky that's only an online one, eh?)

Bomby: 8.5

Galefore: 8.0

Interesting. It all comes down to HotD's scores, I suppose.

You waited patiently...

...and I thank you sincerely for giving me time to recover from my jetlag.



No more waiting...

JUDGEMENT DESCENDS!!!!





JUST WOW!!!

Congratulations!!! You guys both deserved to be here... that was fantastic!!!

I have nothing but admiration for the way you both wrote, yet as is my position as a Judge, I can only choose one of you. Tis not fair to do otherwise, in my humble opinion.





Galefore vs Malik (aka Manfred vs Bomby :p )


Galefore:
Your description in the opening post was great!! Awesome battlefield choice. I liked your interesting tactics and the definite results from said attacks. Your character came across as strong and brutal, and yet somehow alien in his power. Your writing gets better each time.


Malik:
Your character was captivating!! I enjoyed your description to the point that I felt intrigued by how it ensnared my attention. I delighted in being drawn into the amazing imagery forming within my mind!! I liked the acknowledgment of everything that your character experienced. You had a great narrative style. It all flowed smoothly from my point of view and you wrote really well.




Well done to you both!!!! You should both feel proud of your efforts and what you achieved through them!!!







Now for the difficult part... scores...

Galefore
9.1

Malik
9.5





Thanks for asking me to be a part of the Tournament, guys. Tis always my pleasure to read these epic battles!!! Hopefully, see you next time again!!

*gives everyone marshmallows*

Be smiley!!! :D
