Sadly, I think it was only to be expected that a number of people didn't finish. (And, personally, if I were almost finished or just waiting on a beta, I'd doubtless have held off a couple of days, myself, rules or not, because my dislike of posting things unfinished is possibly even greater than my dislike of missing deadlines. So I can understand that there was tardiness as well.) But, regardless, this was a very cool idea, and it prompted me to write something I'm not entirely unhappy with, and which I'm pretty sure I would never have written otherwise. And, while I haven't had the chance to read most of the posts yet, what I have read, finished or otherwise, has been good. Heck, I'd say this thing was entirely worthwhile just for having led to the production of the two stories I beta'd.
