And so ends another chapter in the history of the Poo Lit Surprise.
There's been some times where I wish I wasn't hosting this, but overall, it's gone better than I thought it would. The rough patches, I believe, are more than worth it for some of the new, terrific article that have been written. Congratulations to all the winners for an excellent display of writing. A hearty pat on the back to everyone else who entered, too — it's nice to have so many good writers around, so thanks for all the effort you guys have put in, especially those who wrote multiple articles.
Special thanks to Modus, for answering those questions while I wasn't there/didn't watchlist this thing, all the judges for their time spent deciding who would be victorious, and to Mordillo and MrN for doing all the adminny stuff that I couldn't.
Well done all again, good luck with these on VFH, and thanks for making this the not-the-worst PLS in Uncyc history![citation needed] —–Sir Heerenveen, KUN UotM RotM VFH (talk), 6/04 10:51
