Is it just me or was there less enthusiasm for the contest this year? Maybe it got lost a little among all BFs new boxset announcements and all the onscreen Jodie leaving/60th Anniversary filming/Ncuti arriving news?

Maybe it got lost a little among all BFs new boxset announcements and all the onscreen Jodie leaving/60th Anniversary filming/Ncuti arriving news? I think because some members who would be very active here, chatting or giving advice, are either on break or left. I certainly noticed the lack of writing discourse here compared to even last year.
But hey, good luck to everyone who has sent!

Well Last Year "something else" that delayed the launch date. Curiously i think the announcements have seemed very Professional this time. Regards mark687

Well, three days late (oops!) but hey, done for another year. Congrats to everyone who has sent in - even if you don't win, getting a story down is tricky, so the fact that you did that is something to be proud of!
With the standard going up, year after year, I imagine it'll be a tough one for the judges.

Hey,
Usually by this Big Finish make some kind of post about checking your emails to see if you’ve won. As the winner will be announced by the end of July. Do we think this will happen again? Or that it will be done secretly. It’s pretty silent on the topic and it makes me nervous. I just wanna know if I can just forget it or not. I’ve been so occupied since my entry I forgot about the competition but it really came to mind today and now I just want to know.
Goodluck to everyone who submitted this year! It’s always so exciting but also disappointing if you don’t win. But what a fun challenge!

It’s always so exciting but also disappointing if you don’t win. But what a fun challenge! I think they've said when the winner was contacted every year (last year with an Adam West Batman gif). I imagine they would again, so there's less chance of someone's win getting lost in a spam filter.

They have yeah aha, and they tend to do it on their Twitter account but they’ve been very quite. Now it’s August 1st. So I’d assume the winner has been contacted but it’s still a little nerve inducing just not having that confirmation.

As far as I can tell, there hasn't been any mention of the winner being contacted on Big Finish's socials. However given the date I'm assuming the winner has been contacted and it hasn't been me. So to whomever, if they are here: good luck.

Well, it wasn't me, and I was really, really excited about my idea. But then, who isn't?
Well done to the lucky winner, if they're lurking around on here!

Hey ho. It's not me either. Many congratulations to the winner and I'm looking forward to hearing it. Commiserations to the rest of us... maybe next time eh?

www.bigfinish.com/news/v/short-trips-2022-competition-winner-announcedWinner announced! "This year, the judges chose The World Tree, an Eleventh Doctor adventure written by Nick Slawicz."
"Nora Wicker is forgetful. Not big things – not yet, anyway. She remembers her address and where the shops are. She remembers people when they come to visit, no matter how rare that is. But she doesn’t remember where the bush with the red leaves in her garden came from – and she definitely doesn’t remember asking for a house call from the Eleventh Doctor."

Joke's on you! I've been here this whole time!
For real, though... these threads were absolutely invaluable when I was entering the competition, so I just want to say a big thanks to everyone who's posted and the support they've given to people (even people they didn't know were lurking). Can't wait for you to all get to listen to it on the 29th!
