D*MN IT! I'M SORRY, ENIGMA, I SHOULD HAVE DONE MORE TO GET THIS FINISHED!
Though if you ever want to finish and release the whole thing, I'm game.

Okay, okay, enough fun for me. After all your begging, a few death threats and this PM conversation:

I have decided to announce the winner! Tomorrow. :mrgreen:

Okay, fine. I'll do it now.

First, a quick summary: The average case of this comp, Fire and Ice (but mainly Fire), featured Apollo Justice trying to solve the fiery death of someone at a snowy location alongside Detective Gumshoe. Larry is also there. The trial is named "Turnabout (Something to do with fire)"

Here are the four entries again, with their greatest strengths and weaknesses:
Turnabout Freezeflame: (Clever, theme relevant, trial is a horrible mess of nonsense)
Turnabout Elements: (Neat setup, theme relevant, but really more of a concept than an actual case)
Turnabout Inferno: (Clever crime, original OCs, really really wordy and the plot is not focused on the crime at all)
Firing Up the Turnabout: (A complete investigation, interesting characters, unique defendant, Seldoon, not especially theme relevant)

So, who will the winner be? The voters have voted in the poll, and declared that it is...

BBblader, deHughes and Zeel1's Turnabout Inferno!

...

And so, with my respect for democracy and the AAO community, I will inform you that we already made our decision three days ago, before the poll was even put up, so that result is not official and has no bearing on our actual decision. :mrgreen:

You can view our final comments (and learn the true winner) here:

And, while not having anything to do with AAO, here is a video I found of how to actually set ice on fire using chemistry! Science is awesome!

Congratulations to everyone who actually did the tiniest bit of work! Yay! :awesome:

Ah, well. Nobody's perfect. (Unless you're a von Karma.)
Well, at least we can still revamp our trial before the TRs decide to review.

I hope so. We would have given it to you, but the trial parts were just so bad that we couldn't, really. It was my personal favorite, though.

@Zeel: Well, that's good, since it has occurred to me that I worded that post somewhat confusingly. The poll didn't matter. The actual winner is in the video. Sorry for confusion that was not in the name of confusion. Seriously, watch the video.

There's no rush. We're getting near Christmas anyway, so not everyone will want to get to work on the next one yet, anyway. :XD:
