Four kills, right? You went for five?

AND the pole dancer

Oops.


The parameter is 4+, not exactly 4. Presumably an extinction-level event would count as well.

Who Wants to Be a Princess? (Family)
Glass House (Horror anthology)

Fiesta Muerta
Feels like a Machete but doesn't read iike one.
I'm missing being connected to characters in this. Overall you made the crazy plot sound very believable and I'm surprised you managed. Which makes me think you're excellent.
The girl and her pimp were very good.
If the rich boy's dad is a mob he can't move around without a bodyguard I think. That for me is a plot hole.

The Plan
This kept losing me. I think it's because you introduced your characters altogether, not gradually. You gave them matter-of-factly lines. And you didn't make them different to each other, so I kept checking the characters names.  
And then, you're against a strong competitor.

Fiesta Muerta -- Writing is good. Everything is quite good except I thought the end was a bit bloodless. Maybe there's something wrong with me, but if it's gonna be a massacre I feel like you should go all out. Valentina could step in just as Joey's hand is about to get sawed off and the last moment is her handing a catatonic, blood-soaked Joey her card. Okay, there's definitely something wrong with me...

Oh, and I think you can come up with a better last line. Maybe... "Next time, stick with Vegas." No, that's terrible. I don't know. Something with a little more punch to it.

The Plan -- Decent idea I suppose. Some of the dialogue felt like it was just filling up space. It was hard to get into this one but overall decent effort. Just try to get in and out of a scene faster and not linger with unnecessary banter.


That rug really tied the room together.

THE PLAN

Not a bad story really. Kinda fun little mistaken identity thing. It might be worth it to work on this a little bit when the time is right. Unfortunately, this story had the tough luck to go up against...

FIESTA MUERTA

Extremely well written, pretty good story, and easily the best one I've read so far. This one deserves to move on, and I doubt I'll find a better one in this bunch. Congrats!

The number you have drawn is 4+. This is your body count (4 or more people must die). Non-genre specific. 8 pages max.

If I can just draw your attention to the 'or more' part.  This would imply an unlimited amount of deaths.
