I have no complaints about the winners, or about me losing. My question is, did the winners follow the rules? I could've sworn there was a max word count; I thought it was 250 to 500? Then again, my mind isn't what it used to be, so I could've picked that up in other contests and applied it to this one. If all the rules were followed, then three cheers for the winners!

P.S. Yes, I even linked to a word count site to make sure I didn't go over the limit for this contest. https://wordcounter.net/
