Good job Christine! I will admit I didn't like the Anvil very much, but you really impressed me in the later rounds (I've been voting for you since Villians). I may not have left the top 32, but you really deserved this!
And I'll see everyone for next year's superstar. Because I'm going to do better next time.

Congratulations, Christine.
This contest, the contestants, judges and message board contributors have injected the gaming community with some good gamin' juice! I've been inspired by the ideas on this board over the last several weeks.
Awesome job, Paizo.

When does the next Superstar contest begin?

Hurray! Congratulations, again, Christine!
Is it January 2009 yet?
And which edition will this new S1 (Superstar) series begin with???
And we have no idea. I will say that since her module was submitted for 3.5 OGL that it's a pretty good bet we'll release it as such regardless of our edition decisions. That said, we still don't have the GSL or the rules so we can't really make a decision.
This is Christine's moment, though. Let's shy away from the edition discussion and continue to congratulate her! I can't wait to run my group through this module.

Huzzah for 3.5 After all, if it was a 4.x module we'd have to say "It sounded better in the original edition."*
*poking fun at the line 'it soudned better in the original German' -source unknown.

Congrats Christine,
I have to say your entries snuck up on me. I wish I could say I was on your bandwagon the whole time, but really it was your last two submissions that made me sit back and marvel... When I read Dwarven Valkyries you had me.
Good luck with your new career and may you bring joy to the rest of us for years to come.
Thank you,

Excellent job Christine! You have been my favorite for several rounds now, great to see you coming out on top. I must say kudos to all who participated and to Paizo for coming up with a great contest. A lot of great concepts came out of this one from every level of the competition. I was deeply impressed.

Christine:
I don't know if you usually frequent English language chatrooms, but if you drop in on Lilith's one at DMTools in the next few days, I'm sure that any of the regular Paizo messageboarder's would be very pleased to see you.

Congratulations Christine - I doubt very few of us could say that we didn't see this coming. ;-)
So, three cheers to you from the cheerleader for the "Purple Prince of Prague" (Thanks, Jason, for that awesome title!):
Hip Hip, Hooray!
Hip Hip, Hooray!
Hip Hip, HOORAY!
Also, it absolutely rocks that your adventure already has cover art (with what I presume is intended to be a Dwarven Valkyrie).
Even though I was confused by some aspects of your submission - I noticed that at least one other person was confused by the same issues surrounding the exiled prince and his dream-distilled clones - I'm actually pretty confident that what you will produce will knock our collective socks off so I'm pretty sure that I'll pick up a copy when it hits the shelves.

Congratulations Christine, Europa rule!
I've been living in Germany for seven months now, and I'm´impressed by how much adult people like traditional games in this country.
You'll have to Google every other sentence you come up with in English to check if it is proper, maybe, but you might end up being translated back to German one day, too.
Viel Glück,
Tito

Thank you very much!
It has been a wonderful experience for me to participate in such a breathtaking event and I'm utterly flattered by your support.
I'm sure I would not have been able to have the endurance to continue writing/rewriting without your comments and encouragement. During the entire competition I often wondered about the marvelous ideas and concepts everyone had and I feel honoured to be a part of this creative awesomeness!
If someone asks me if I was "discovered" during this contest I will have to decline. I think the contest pretty much shaped me and my writing. I wouldn't have been able to increase the quality of my English without Mr. Mona's help and the examples my fellow competitors set. To tell the truth, Carnamach was probably the longest text I ever wrote if you discount school and boring science texts (of course I've been reading much, but thats not exactly the same ;-) ).
I'm sure many fantastic designers (published and unpublished ones) are frequenting the paizo boards and I'll certainly look forward to buying their adventures/sourcebooks/or whole campaings(Mr. BOOMER) as soon as they are available.
Thank you paizo, and all paizo people :-)
PS: Tomorrow, after my family and friends stopped besieging my home (they are throwing a party behind my back :P ) I will be at the chatroom (I guess tomorrow at 12 your time). See you then!

Superlative job Christine, and very well deserved!
I've taken Eric's advice and pre-ordered it already...

(I 'spose I ought to find a way to work around to getting a 10th level party ready for next year, hadn't I?)
...
As for the rest of you folks...next year (well, later this year) THIS TIME I shall be ready and you shall all feel my unstoppable and implacable wrath -, no wait, sorry...Force of habit don'tch yer know...I mean be astounded at my elite creative skills! Or something.
Yeah, I need to work on that...

Congrats Christine!!! Well deserved. Your entries have been excellent. I look forward to your module. The Pathfinder Chronicles are about to get even better once your collosal animated monastary starts getting its rage on.
Enjoy your party!

P.S. And congrats to her fellow competitors who made the contest a success.

Glückwunsch ! Verdammt, das hat einen aber auf die Folter gespannt, alle 15 Minuten das Forum abzurufen.... und das mit gedrückten Daumen !
ahem (I know this is an english board, folks )
Congratulations - been looking forward to you winning ever since your crazy theocracy submission, and any hopes than raised were more then exceeded. Consider yourself put on a pedestal as far as fantastic creativity is concerned...

Tadaaa!
Christine, I knew you'd make it. I can't wait to read the final piece. To have it in my hand and flip through the pages.
Congrats.
