Well, hopefully I'll remember it's 4pm and not 9pm for me in the future:D

I voted for your story, so you'll be getting my feedback:)

Definitely a difficult vote!

Your story got my +1 .... I really loved the emotions and I also like it when we get to see Jack break down. He is a hero but even a hero needs to let it out.

I found the feedback very helpful, if anyone has any more, please feel free to toss it my way. Positive or negative! You always have something to learn from constructive criticism is my opinion!

I'm sorry you got voted out. I didn't vote either way for your story, but I thought it was fine, it was just a little slice of life. Clearly I have no idea what the reasons for your negative votes would have been but the thing I would have picked up on was that the dialogue sort of hung there, I wasn't that sure about it, but I did like the ideas and the mood that you evoked with the music.

Thanks for your feedback. I think when I was cutting to meet the word count I focused too much on NOT cutting dialogue and cutting the rest instead. It lost a lot of its cohesion, I think. It's great to hear your point though. Thanks again.

I think you have not calculated Analineblue's score correctly (I didn't vote her story as best or worst so no stake in this) - if the numbers are correct, then the total should be -2 not +2.

Thanks :) I hate coding html tables, knew I'd make a mistake somewhere. Yes it should be total should be -2 I'll edit it now.

Oh wow, I didn't even notice! Thanks for fixing that. (And thanks, aviv_b for catching it before I did! ^_~)
