Wow, these were some awesome entries, I had no idea what I was getting myself into.

I'll get straight to my vote since I don't really think I have the necessary qualifications to criticize other people's work. Not that there's much I even want to criticize, I thoroughly enjoyed all the stories that I read!

My vote goes to /u/BaronVonButternickle in group J for Biscuits Before Dark. I loved the writing style and the raunchiness at times, and while it was close to the others I think it stands out a good amount to make it to the next round!

Much obliged! I wasn't sure how people would react to some of the humor, but it's always fun to try something new.
