Cheers, Vok! Thank you for not "phoning it in."
Barkeep! Coffee, please! And don't tell me you're still not serving it. Just give me the strongest caffeine ya' got!
So now I know why our match was the most highly voted... I was up against the crowd favorite, "best chop of the Round!" Well, no shame in losing to
that!
I guess I was a bit stupid and delusional in thinking more people would take the time to compare my chop to the original.
Anyway, I really appreciate the comments recognizing how much work mine had. Thank you! And thank you to Grefix who is a good enough friend to keep his promise to vote honestly after getting a sneek peek.
Oh... My husband and daughter both thank you all for NOT sending me to another Round with yet more hours spent locked away in my office. I told them there was very little risk of that, but they're both relieved anyway.
A lot of beautiful work and hard choices this round! Congratulations to the winners, and kudos to all the participants!
