Any progress on Fan Fic results?

Just curious if there's been any progress on determining the five front-runners of the fan fiction contest. I know the Micrsoft rules say they'll announce the winner around the end of the month, but I don't remember them saying anything about the top five. Just curious. No biggie.

the MS site said "on or about march 19 the fan site will submit 5 finalists" so today WOULD be the day, but the contest encoutnered some technical difficulties, closing too early, ppl not getting submissions right, so it may be a few more days if not a week... yes, have patience.... the end results will be worth waiting for!!

EB how many entries did u get in the end??

Are all of the stories going to get posted here? I for one would like to see everyone's stories, not just the one that ends up winning and being posted on the 'official' site.

Over 30 entries, i think. Bargib has to read through all of them.

DAG GONE! I didn't know there were THAT many! Wow, and to think, all this time I thought I was the only geek who would enjy something like that. Sorry to seem pushy. I was just wonderin'. I'll let it go. It's not like I'm gonna win or even place, so I won't bug anyone anymore. :?)
