Friends, AWRians, countrymen,
lend me your ears.
I have come not to praise our winner,
but merely to announce him.
I congratulate all writers,
you have all wrote so... epicly.

Over the course of a month, we have seen 14 writers enter 25 excellent pieces of writing. And I can now announce a winner of the first ever Arena.

The winner is:

ZOVO!

Now go ahead writers, and reveal yourselves.

Round 1: Match 4: Entry 1: awritersrecluse.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=arena&thread=2944&page=1#219324
{DEFAULTED - AGAIN! Like seriously! GAH and GRRRR!}

Round 2: Match A: Entry 1: awritersrecluse.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=arena&thread=2967&page=1#221528
{Went up against really, really good writer and the eventual winner of Arena. Just my frickin' luck! Still not won any toe-to-toe with any writer because of the "defaults" .... which happened all the way in the Cup until Taed! I have really bad luck with competitions and competitors!}

I actually managed to pick out a lot of people! Hehe ... but I expect a lot of people found me too!

I did manage to fool a lot of people with my second entry though! Including Mel. I was the writer of the Jill story where the boy died in flames. Bet ya didn't see that coming! Lot more horrific and violent than the normal Reffy story. (A few guessed me as Tam's entry - the alien fish one!)
