In Conclusion
While we did hit a few bumps along the way, things went surprisingly well for this being our first attempt at a community event. Most notably, grading took almost 4 weeks which is much longer than the originally anticipated 4-5 days. We've already talked amongst ourselves and come up with a few solutions to this problem and plan to implement a number of changes next time.

Finally, we're very happy to see so many entrants and were delighted at the greater-than-expected number of submissions for both our raffle and short story contest. This shows us that there really is an active and populated monster girl community in the West, so we plan on continuing these events in the hopes of fostering further growth, cross-communication, and content creation.

Thanks for stopping by, have a good one!
