I think it's fair that plans change as time goes on. There are questions of practicality, of funding, availability. But that's why it's also a good idea not to show your hand too early about what you're planning. Just one of the things they'll have learnt from this year and know better for next year.

While an inspired idea, I think Snicket Delivers Snicket was always a bit impractical. Usually home-to-home advertising covers a smaller range, but reaches many through, well, viral outreach. Even with viral outreach, though, the expenses of a nationwide endeavor can quickly grow to become quite extravagant.

The closing date to enter this is tomorrow. Be on the look out for results.

Quite often, competition holders take a while to deliberate on such things. I'd give it a week.

Has anyone heard anything now? It's been quite a bit more than one week.

I haven't heard anything. Whilst strictly speaking that doesn't necessarily mean anything, as time goes on and we get farther from the closing date, it looks less and less likely that we've won.

No news is good news, I'm sure Lemony Snicket would say. Not.

Actually, it's bad news, because it means none of us won.

If it makes y'all feel any better, here's a HQ pic of the sneak peek cover for the people not following The Snicket File (posted it back mid-October):

How did you get hold of that cover, incidentally?

Wanna know the kinda disappointing truth? I just composed it myself. I've gathered high resolution images of all of its components and then meticulously arranged them to be exactly like on the real cover seen on (low-res) photos.
