And now the moment you have all been waiting for.

First of all let me apoligize for taking so long to get to this, and express my deepest thank to Evening for helping me out. I wouldn't have managed it without her. We've worked on it almost nonstop since... ...

Are you listening to me? No, I didn't think so. No peeking! Names will appear when I say they will and not a moment before.

All right, all right! The winner is...

is...

Fara. And Fara, and Fara and...

Fara took first place in six out of eight categories.

Even More Unnecessary Detail

We have decided to publicize the grand spreadsheet of all statistics. Well, not all statistics, just most statistics. It can be viewed on Gdocs here:

Document of Most Statistics

Also, in order to reach these grand totals we took each users data and plugged it into an individual spreadsheet. We will not be doing this next year. Next year you get to do your own. But for this year only you can request your individual data from Eva Mimetes. She's even offered to send it to you in PDF, but only if you email (or PM) her privately for it.

Now go check out the prize thread!

Congratulations to Fara and all the other winners!

Woohoo! Way to go, Fara, and all the other winners! I laughed when I saw where I ranked. Told you so, Katie!

Congratulations, Fara, and all the winners!

*out of breath* Goodness! I'm surprised that didn't take you 16 hours! BIG hugs and cupcakes to both of you for putting all of that together.

And a warm and hearty thank-you to everyone who participated! An event is kind of lame if nobody participates, so thanks for divin' in and readin' lots!

Oh, I forgot! I have some more pointless and bizarre trivia for ya'll! (I want book of the month statistics, but I haven't wanted to dive in and collect them.)
