Talk:Jeff the Killer 2015/@comment-25941663-20151207121708/@comment-26054278-20151208224730

''Sorry, but the contest was obviously a failure. And I don't think it's fair to defend the story just because it was in a contest that its detractors didn't participate in. Expectations aside, the story isn't up to standards.''

I'm not going to argue with this statement as this comment chain has gotten heated enough without me throwing in my personal opinion, but I do recall in Underscorre's original blog entry an exact line saying that the 2nd place and 3rd place winners will also be showcased here on the site.

Here's the exact quote:

''The winning pasta will be posted to the main 'site as a replacement to Jeff the Killer. Additionally, MrCreepyPasta has agreed to do a reading of the winning entry! (in case you somehow don't know him, MCP is an incredibly popular Creepypasta narrator with almost one million subscribers). The second and third place winners will be showcased alongside the winner on the 'site, although they will not (necessarily) be read by MCP.''

Personally, I think that the two runner-ups do deserve their own spot on the wiki (as they are different, unique, and nicely constructed interpretations), yet I haven't heard the admins or anyone (except, of course, the 2nd and 3rd place authors who remembered this original promise) talk of it.

What I'm saying is that the contest has produced other very good works, and two that will hopefully be on the site with this one soon. Therefore, even if you don't like this story in particular, I should hope that the other two runner-up stories will cater more to your personal quality standards and taste.

That is, if the admins are even planning to post them.
