Cheer up my no-score crew, there's a good few days yet until the deadline, surely by then us eleven 'blanks' will have a vote or two, keep your spirits up.

Well it's improved a teensy weensy bit... There's now only ten of us who haven't broken our ducks!

Of Earth & Heaven, @Vaz - I loved the epic tragedy of this piece. Like something from Greek myth.
