Competition Wrap-Up

Thanks to everyone who took part in this year's TAW. I guess we can officially call it an annual competition now. :) Since the competition had been postponed once or twice during the year, I'm glad that so many editors turned out to participate. A special thanks to returning champions Phrank Psinatra and Lyrithya (who won two of the three awards!) and Oliphaunte who volunteered as a substitute judge.

Quite a few requests were filled for TAW 2011. One of the winning articles, Twilight (novel), has already been featured and three others have been nominated on VFH - Somalia,Esperanto, and Plant. This year's TAW included a series of "challenge" awards which saw Aleister & co. contribute A priest, a rabbi and a minister walk into a bar, EpicAwesomeness resurrecting Bart Simpson is sleeping with your wife from VFD, and both Shabidoo and Oliphaunte completing two of the oldest articles requested on UN:REQ (i.e. Making up Dan Quayle quotes and English Uncyclopedia). The next competition will probably take place in September 2012, following the next PLS. Thanks again for everyone who joined and I hope everyone had fun. MadMax 20:54, January 17, 2012 (UTC)
