The results are in! Well they were in a couple of days ago, but I can't always access this website and have a tendency to forget my wordpress password. There were 56 votes, so thanks to all who read the entries and voted. I've listed the top 3 in each category, I can go into more detail if people request it, but didn't feel that it would be in the spirit of the contest to focus on how many votes each person got.

I'd like to wish a big thank you to all those who entered, we had a very high standard of entry this time around and I hope that first-timers are inspired by this to write more. I've enjoyed running this season's contest, it's nice to be back at the steering wheel and of course I couldn't have done this without the help of Notsosupersaiyan who unfortunately was unable to play a part once it was up and running (busy with real life) or without the excellent groundwork laid down by Pakona and DblIntegral over the years.
Reading each story has been a great pleasure and while I know some of the writers who entered will definitely be writing more in the future as they have in the past, I have enjoyed being able to read some storied by new authors, and I wish them luck now that they can publish their stories here or wherever and hope they are encouraged when they do so to keep writing.
I think we picked a really good topic for the competition (mostly Notso's idea) and I know that we will be back with another contest soon with just as thought provoking a topic. It's been great to see so much variety in how this has been interpreted, from the cartoony to the unashamedly real and even some poetry.
Also I can't finish without saying congratulations to those who have won awards. I know that saying, it's the taking part, not the winning that counts is such a tired old cliche; but in this case you have to bear in mind that people are more likely to vote for things that fit in with their particular fetish, so don't be too disheartened if you didn't win anything this time, keep writing what you love to write and you will get as much ejoyment out of the process as you put in.
regards,
Carnatic (and presumably Notso echoes these sentiments)

Sorry, I forgot to include the comments left. Here they are:
"Lyrical, well-paced, and well-rounded character!"
Sick - by Throwaway261
"It was a toss-up between Meddle and More, but Meddle is something very unique. We don't often see poetry in this genre."
Meddle Not - by Chatterwhilesleeping
"It has the sexiest floating!"
Meddle Not - by Chatterwhilesleeping
"Epic cartoony action and good image conveyence."
Hit and Run - by Pablote
"I also had the idea for bursting out of armor, but this sir/madam executed it much better- and, of course, submitted it on time. Writing it as poetry was an excellent idea on the writer's part."
Meddle Not - by Chatterwhilesleeping
"most popping"
