I've been reading the comments and honestly, I can't believe people were expecting this to be a very good and enjoyable read. This was voted as the best rewrite, but it still isn't better than any of the work Banning has posted on the wiki. It is a rewrite of one of the worst stories out there. How were people expecting this to be a masterpiece that would blow their minds? This wasn't a contest to come up with a fantastic story, but to find the middle road between appeasing the fanboys and the community of the wiki. And Banning (as many other contestants) did a darn fine job of rewriting a crappy story in a manner that is readable and doesn't breed countless shitty spin-offs.

It was perfectly clear what this contest was all about and what we wanted to achieve. And I personally believe we are on the right track. I know only time will tell if this was a success, but I feel good about it.

I will admit that (in my opinion) Banning's isn't the best as a story, but it is the best as a rewrite. That's what the contest was all about. Rewriting a crappy story. That's what the community voted.

That's all. And to Banning, congrats man. Not only for this admirable effort, but for the leap of faith you took with this one. You have my respect, as do all the other contestants. Bravo.
