First of all I would like to thank everyone who has participated in the 2012/2013 THANK YOU!!! CONTEST. I had as much fun composing all the riddles, as you've assured me you had fun answering them. With the last riddle answered, the contest is over, and now is the time to pronounce the winners.
If you have read my earlier post, I intended to have only one winner. However, as the contest progressed I decided to reward everyone who managed to answer a riddle. Sadly, there is still only one AMAZING MYSTERY PRIZE, but I hope that the other winners will not find their prizes regrettable.
So, without further ado:
The winner of the 2012/2013 THANK YOU!!! CONTEST is:
BRANKA GLADANAC
