'After Math'!

Now that the contest is done and over (congratulations to nightwing), what should become of our little clan of elves? I understand that most of us are bloggers -- so some of us can keep in contact -- but what about everyone else? I propose we form something like a Chat-Room!

What does everyone else think of the idea? 

The results have been posted!

The results have been posted! We were 2nd. Nightwing put in an incredible effort with 825,700 points! Congrats Nightwing! Silvertree, great job! Even if we didn't win, we still put in a good effort and helped promote WTB's books! Great job to everyone who participated in this contest!

A Message from Mr. Batson

Here is an email I just got:

To Nathan and Tribe SilverTree

I will be posting the final results for the Tribe Building Contest on my blog and on the Underground, FB and everywhere else....tonight.

Without focusing on Win/Loss, I just wanted to say thank you. On behalf of a mission that is much bigger than Wayne Batson or Christopher Hopper writing books, you and your team came through BIG TIME. The seeds you have planted here may well lead hundreds of people and beyond a few steps closer to the Lord, and where from there? Ah, in Heaven, I bet we'll all find out.

I don't know, but I can guess how busy your lives already are. I know all of this took tons of extra time and effort. And, well…I want you to know I appreciate your effort so much. I feel like, in a way, we've gone to battle together.

So for now, I lift my sword in your honor. Well fought!

Never alone.

-Wayne Thomas Batson

What this means I do not know. But I find it very thoughtful of WTB to email me.
Aren't WTB and CH just awesome? :)

The Final Report

So the final report had be all stressed out. I had tons of emails filled with points, I actually had to sift through them a day early. Eventually I was done, way past my bedtime Sunday night. The total and a few chats with Seth of Swiftstorm had me terribly nervous and I was certain we had lost.

Come to find out this morning that one of the tribe members sent me points at 11:53PM EST, 7 minutes before tribe building ended. Quickly I forwarded the email to WTB promising that I hadn't messed with the time of the email. I hope it will still count. An additional 10K+ was handed in lol

In the end our final Vanadil count is.........................................

516,600!!!!

I don't know if this is enough, I'm still horribly nervous, but I know it was the best our tribe could do. I am so sorry, I feel like I didn't pull my weight, for not getting the top number of points. I kinda feel like I let you down. Ah well, I hope it's enough.

Congrats Silvertree!

Huzzah!
