Edit: In order to make the link for the twelve day's entry fit in the poll, I had to use a URL shortener. Also, the Let it Snow link in the poll does not work. The one in the post does.
I'm going to have to go for Holiday Fun, because Seerah offered me nude pics... eh I mean because it had the most options.
Yes. Options.
In seriousness; I liked the variety of options in Holiday Fun, and while it's not as flexible in the snowfall module as Let It Snow, the other options made up for it.
So, the results are in, and everybody is a winner! :P
7500 points to each entry.
That's very nice of you, although doesn't it seem a little unfair on the overall winner (who now gets less points than expected). If you can afford to donate extra points, why not use them to boost the other prizes, as 10,000 is especially valuable due to its ability to be redeemed for cash.
Just my 2 cents anyway, after all they're your points.
Tuller can do whatever the hell he wants to with his points. You have no entitlement to decide who "deserves" more than anyone else. If he wants to suddenly decide that he'll donate them all to the Salvation Army, there's not a single one of you that can gainsay him.
If you find it unfair, go earn those points yourself and then award them.

lol harsh comment. He was simply suggesting something completely reasonable ;D
It was a compromise on my part. I felt that every entrant should be awarded, but did not want to reduce the amount given to the winner by too much. So, I increased the total amount awarded to 30,000 and then split the points evenly.
Besides, polls can be easily abused. Imagine if I listed Stephen Colbert as one of the options :P
Very nice to award all 4 contestants, though I don't really understand why you undermined the entire contest by decreasing the first prize points after I had actually won.
I was the only one who got a decrease so I'm wondering if the points awarded would've been kept the same if I hadn't come first?
Anyway, negativity put aside, thanks for the contest (and points), and seasonal greetings to all.
Thank you, Tuller! :) Much love to you and all who took time to vote in the contest. As I wrote on my guild site, I didn't mind much if people didn't vote for me, just as long as they took the time to cast a vote. :) Congrats to the other authors who entered, also.
As mentioned above, forum polls are easy to cheat (not saying that anyone did! :) ) and there were only four entries anyway. :) So I understand why Tuller changed his mind on the rewards.

Good luck to all contestants :D
She only offered me points! :(

"Unfair"

Grats to all the contestants!

I'm sure the dude simply hates you. :p
If anyone else won, I would have done the same thing. The only other idea I was toying around with was acting as a tiebreaker.
