Hee, I picked all of the above. I did well in the first challenge, but this second one wasn't very strong. Who knows? I've come to realize I have no sense at all of how something is going to do (helpful as now I won't stress over impending results)...

Yeah, I can’t believe it’s mid September already but I’m going with “I’m nervous.” 😬
My pol satire story isn’t as strong as I’d like and a couple of people I respect have pointed out bigger flaws in the structure. So I’m feeling kinda bummed as I have 13 points after R1. Oh well. It is what it is. I’ll be around to beta for others no matter what. Good luck everyone!

Nervous and sad. Family challenges are making me wonder that even if I make it through, can I write? I'll have to do it for him.

I'm nervous as hell. I have to make the top 4 (I think) to be able to move on to the next round and I don't think my story is going to cut it. Too many technical issues. I'm kicking myself for not getting beta readers for that train wreck. Next time.

Yikes, still three more days and we're both nervous already. Sometimes I wish I could just forget results day, but I spend too much time on the forums so there's always a reminder. I see you're in the 500 too. If we don't make it to R3, then it's just a few more weeks until the 500 results! Good luck!

I'm terrified. I need to get at least 11th place to move on, but then I have almost no time for round 3 (between sabbath and Yom Kippur, I'll only have sundown Saturday night to sunset Sunday evening 😨😨😨)

I'm kind of sad that FINALLY I got Historical Fiction, after years of crap prompts in genres I don't want, and it's pretty much irrelevant as I only got four points in round one so there's basically no way I'll move on unless I both win and there's an enormous shake-up in people who placed highly in the first round. But there's no way I'm moving on.

I voted for all of the above
 Mainly though I'm just looking forward to receiving the judges' feedback on my own story and seeing how others do. I'm genuinely curious what the judges will make of my suspense story. I didn't score any points in Ch1 which means I have no expectations of advancing to R2 and actually, that really takes the pressure off! So not nervous, just looking forward to results day, and to cheering everyone else on!
