Sorry for the delay on this, but I'm a little ill at the moment. I know the next QTC was going to be a special one, so instead of making y'all wait another week for it, I'll be posting it tomorrow instead.
I'm going to try to have these set up in advance from now on so the posts will never be late (you will be able to expect them exactly at 3 pm). Really wish Fimfiction had a "post at X:XX" feature, mais non.
Be back at the same time tomorrow!

The QTC announcement will be coming this evening, for realsies this time.
Now it's time for contest 32!
NOTE: The next contest will be held SUNDAY AT 3PM Eastern Time!
We'll try doing Sundays from now on, basically.

Quote: We can look like anything.
Wow, we've done forty of these! With the occasional breaks, that means this has gone on for about a year now. We might take a break for a couple of weeks after this one since nopony has spent any Trick Points yet.

Quiz: Name every story whose major theme intentionally includes some justification for (CW) suicide (if an anthology contains one or more stories that qualify, you only need to name the anthology).
Scoring: +1 each correct, ±0 each borderline, –1 each incorrect.
I figured people would like to spend New Year's with friends/family instead of churning out horse words last minute, so the deadline has been extended by 24 hours. This means entries are now due at 8:00AM (GMT) on January 2, 2016.
That's a few hours under a month to go!
Alright, so, I vanished off the planet for a while. A couple involuntary moves, a con, and general Ebonosity.
But! I finally, finally got a moment to read everyone's stories, and they were great! Since there were only four entrants, (not four entries as previously stated,) I'm happy to award each of you $75 each.
