So... we actually made it to week 5. Was this fun? I don't know. Maybe it was. But, we're finally about to declare a winner. Of course, you're all winners and all that noise. Now, onto what you're really waiting for.

And, no, it's not themeless. Some people out there have me confused with somebody who can actually practice empathy. Nope, sorry, you've still got to put in the work this week.

The theme is "winning at any cost". What will you do to win? Is it worth it? Should you win? Will you bother to even attempt to answer any of these questions? We'll find out. Good luck. =)

Theme: "Winning At Any Cost."


Genre List:

Action/Adventure
Comedy
Crime
Horror
Western
Mystery
Sci-Fi
Thriller
Fantasy
Historical

Oh good. So, if I decide to go themeless this week it would totally answer your question “is it worth it?”, right?

So, "winning at any cost" in this context would be doing pure fan service to the SS reviewers, correct?

Well, considering that I’m going to finish behind some people that haven’t written in weeks, and that I’ll need a 10 out of 5 to take this thing, as Reg Dunlop said at the end of Slap Shot; this is my last game, I’m gonna play it straight.

This looks like a rhetorical question. Can’t believe anyone saves the best for the last especially with this partner situation. I’m stuck with the worst for me genre.
