Congratulations to everyone, and thanks again for everyone's hard work in making this happen! Massive shoutout to @chaos_Leader, @Flaze, and @LightningTopaz for doubling up on the bigger categories, and to @kintsugi and @lucarioknight56 for picking up a category/character at the last minute for me.

There's not all, though!

I'm happy to announce we have two brand new Writers Workshop Champions! Both @AetherX and @Misfit Angel have earned eight badges as of this round, so an extra shoutout to them!

@AetherX has a knack for portraying the hardship of everyday life and bringing the world in his stories to life through sympathetic characters with so much depth I feel like I really, truly know them. His writing pulls you in and never lets go. Which is just fine. I don't want to go; I always want to read more Not to mention his contributions to other areas of the Writers Workshop. Whether it's a review or a discussion post in the Written Word, Aether responses are always thoughtful. <3

@Misfit Angel... Well, she's had a few names over the years, but what hasn't changed is her is the immense amount of camaraderie she brings to the Writers Workshop. Every day she's around to make our users laugh and to show how dedicated she is to the writing craft. Her writing is beautiful and ambitious and a treat to read and much, much more. <3

Finally, we've got banners and judging reviews to look forward to.

@Misfit Angel and myself worked to compile a brand new Hall of Fame site hosted outside of Bulbagarden! The old one were no longer cooperating due to the massive amount of images, and this way, we can avoid having two separate threads for it. The old ones will be removed but accessible to mods in case they're ever needed, and replaced with this thread.

That said, all banners for this season are already created and posted on the Hall of Fame site!

Judging reviews can be posted anytime now! If you already posted them and would like your extra points for the Review League, that's fine. Yep, you get bonus points for the Review League this round, too, so get to it! The authors would love to hear all the thoughts you had, judges! :D
 
Congrats to all the winners! There was definitely some tough competition this year and I hope it continues into the future!

It's an honor to finally get here!

Also, make sure to check out the banners I made! I went a little bit cross eyed with how many I had to create this year.
