NaNoWriMo's been over for a week, and I think we've regained if not sanity, than at least energy, so we can figure out who to relish praise and celebration upon for their victory, and who we can relish praise and celebration on for at least trying.
Everyone that wrote a successful NaNoWriMo, post in here with the details so that I can get the awards distributed! I might ask to read it later, too, to see what else can be done with it. ;)
I have 54,000 words or so on mine, I got to 50,000 the day before it was due in.
Around 50127 words. Barely skimming the mark, but it's done!
I did two, and each one was just over 50k (the total came out to something like 100,300)
I did the first one in six days then the other one took me the rest of the month.
How many words was Moby Dick? Cause that's what I submitted.

Now that's not something you exactly "wrote", is it?

I changed all the names, it's an original work now.

I'm not sure that you even typed full words when writing this thing:
Google "Moby Dick"
Ctrl+A
Ctrl+C
Open Word
Ctrl+V
Ctrl+F
Replace "Captain Ahab" with "Mitzy"
Replace "Starbuck" with "Dunkin' Donuts"
Replace "Moby Dick" with "Shamoo"

Congratulations, Sage! I'm glad you did it!

Flounderman did "NaNoMockMo". He wins the award of not being funny.
So are we getting awards for this or what?

Eventually, when I can get all the names together. You're pretty eager, aren't you? _poogle_

I guess this was to be expected.

I got to 253 over the course of the first week.
I can't help erasing and rewriting, and erasing, and rewriting... I know the spirit of the event is to just
write, but I can't bring myself to. I'm just never satisfied.

There's always next year.
I'll get that medal done for you tonight, by the way. You can add it to the database soon.
Kay.

Here's a list of the registered entrants that actually wrote something with their NaNoWriMo profiles and a link to their Clock Crew profiles. I determined who won by what the word counts are on their NaNoWriMo.org profiles. If there's a star next to them, that means they won and get a Winner award instead of a Participation award:

If I forgot you, it's because I had to go by your
NaNoWriMo.org profile for your word count. If it says 0, or if you didn't have one, I couldn't confirm it. If you still want a NaNoWriMo award, you should contact me personally with proof that you wrote something or you won, and I'll see if I can get an award to you straight away.
