23. Phew, that’s a lot.
Surely this must have been going for over a year now.

Anyway, yuss, thank you to pb for picking me as winner of the last SSC, and here’s a new little thinger to get your mitts stuck into. I thought I’d choose this topic after the song my winning story reminded pb of, because I’m sentimental and all, awwww. Anyway, go forth and bring back a story related to or entwined with (or something) the topic of:

Wire(s)

So, yuss, stick that in there somewhere. I don’t care how.

Rules:
- Not too long, y’know. FFF doesn’t want to be outdone, does he? (ah crap, I know what’s coming)
- Entries must be good (sorry crossbob).
- Needs to be in by midnight on 28th April, that’s a Thursday. I’ll judge on the Friday.

Go.

-------------------------------------------------------

Okay, okay, okay. Judgement time. Hurrah and such.

3rd Place: "Instinct" by Paradox
Short, snappy, and for all but one of the paragraphs really, really good.

2nd Place: "Invisible Wires" by Meka
I felt this was something quite different to most other Meka stories, and I really enjoyed it. Top stuff.

Winner: "Loss" by Stryke
Excellent, emotional, and yeah. Brilliant. I related to it on so many levels.

Yeah, Stryke's gone off to uni again now so he won't be back.
Let Meka pick the new one, methinks.

Congrats all.

Thanks, didnt expect a placing this time, just wanted to enter in under 20 minutes. Cheers Ash.

Oh and if he doesn't make a topic within, say, three days, then just open a dictionary at a random page and point at a word. Gives a nice random selection there.
