Congrats to Injin. You earned the nickname "Giantslayer". I think you're, maybe, overstating my competency here but regardless, congrats on the win Injin. Can't really disagree with any of Pete's comments. I realized when I charged back through doing edits that the pacing was all off.

I'll be sitting down to read through all the stories soon.
I think your feedback is right on the money again, James. The confusion of whether they knew each other was partially intentionally, and partially due to how I approached and wrote the story. Based on the feeling I was getting from the art, I wrote through my strongest images first and then connected them. I think initially when I started writing they didn't know each other but I realized some way through the process that they did.

I know that you'll blow your next opponent out of the water.

I know that you'll blow your next opponent out of the water. Injin thinks you're going to get smashed, Jason.

Regarding Round 4 prompts...
Are these intended as genre-prompts for flash fiction with fun referential titles? Or should the title of the round be taken into account as a thematic element of the story?
For example, are you just looking for a fantasy story? Or a fantasy story specifically fitting the theme of "You Win or You Die?"

Pete can confirmed the final 1%.

Okay, cool... Because that title is boring.

I am officially forfeiting Round 3. For the life of me I cannot pick an idea and stick with it, so I'm just going to throw the towel in one this one. Sorry guys.

You're against, Matteo.
Write something. Anything. 300 words will do. Matteo, you do the same.
IT'S THE RETURN OF THE HOBO THUNDERDOME.

Good thing I decided to go ahead and post while I was still at work. I'm on the bus now and just realised I left my flash drive in my work comp.
I need to put a chain on that thing or something.
Also, Dragon, read your story. I liked it. Captured the little girl really well. Also, reminded me I need to get a bone folder. Been using my finger nail.

I really liked yours, the entire concept of it was awesome. And yeah, bone folders are fantastic.

Deadline day! Hope you all managed to get everything in on time. Round 5 should be a fun round and you'll want the whole time for it.
