And here we are, coming in late (as usual)... The winners of the strapline competition. So many cool entries. A lot of similar ones, and unfortunately that meant we couldn't put those in the final ten. There were lots of "Burn, Baby Burn!" and suchlike, which would have been so cool to see on a cover if we'd only had one entry for it...! I love the winning entries, though, so a huge congratulations to everyone who took part.
And the winners are...
Hugo Peach
Evan Jenkins
Harriet Langley
Tom Wood
Jack Holton
Ashan Ali
Laura MacKenzie
Nigethan Sathiyalingham
Phoebe Ryall
Megan Smales
All the winners receive two signed glossy prints of the cover with their own strap line. Awesome.
Oh, and to remind you, the comments section below is NOT for spoilers!

«Oldest ‹Older 1801 – 2000 of 4966 Newer› Newest»Perfect! OMG, why did I not think of that before?
Snowlock...
*hides*
i wish people wouldnt ask... i.... (this is RP btw) i kinda like him... and i know adra knows!!!
*sits down, drinking a pepsi*
*Shrugs* it's perfectly normal to like someone :)
What's NOT normal is to be in love with them for years, even though he a) has no clue b) has a girlfriend now and c) is moving to the other side of the world in to months :(
*two
*huggles saph*
*sits again*
*huggles Snow* *Growls at drawing 'cause I can't get the hair right*
:P
i am prob just gonna google image stuff if people ask for a picture
They probably won't, but I've been meaning to draw my OC for a while now :)
:P
i really am crap at drawing, so i just describe me/her
[hugs Saph]
[Hums Fix You]
Can't sleep... Here for a little.
#ChaseForBook9
I'm a crap drawer too, but I still enjoy it :)
Hey Fabi :D *tackleglomps*
hey fab again...
*hides* i wish i didnt feel so... shy.... about liking sherlock (this is RP)
Fabi, try tiring yourself out until you don't have the energy to dream. That might help.
Snow, does he know you like him?
no... i dont think so.... as far has he knows, all the stuff i've done/asked him has been a dare...
*sits down hard*
I drew a lot of dresses, but the one I settled on is from the Internet... :-P
And I have three possible dresses for Effie...
[hugs Saph and Snow]
I got distracted by this video... [Crying] It's just beautiful....
#ChaseForBook9
*Grins* I forsee a game of Truth, Dare or Dance tonight. As in, you can answer a truth, do a dare, or ask a specified someone to dance... :D
I GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I GOT MY PRECIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE WORLD IS ONCE AGAIN A HAPPY PLACE!!!!!!!!
YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fabi; What video?
And are you paired with /hoping to dance with anyone? ;)
*hugs duck*
you'll love it, it's great!!
Duck; You got LSODM?!!! WAIT UNTIL YOU READ IT! IT'S THE BEST BOOK YET!
@saph *blushes* *hides*
Congrats, Duck!
Saph-- Attraction Shadow Theatre. From Britain's Got Talent. [Cries]
And nah, not really. :-P
#ChaseForBook9
I don't just love it.
I am ENGROSSED by it.
I am ADDICTED to it.
I would have INTERCORSE with it if I could.
But that would just be WEIRD.
*blinks at duck* yes, that would be incredibly weird....
If I bought heaps more LSODM books, ripped out the pages, mixed them with water, and mould it into a woman THEN I seriously would consider doing that.
*blinks again* duck, do me a favour and stop being odd.
Yeah..... well, I'm going to go read more.
BYE BYE!
bye.... *is concerned for duck*
...
Goodbye Duck.
#ChaseForBook9
*sits down, slightly concerned about confessing my liking for sherlock*
[Would totally give Snow advice, except that I'm rubbish at that sort of thing]
#ChaseForBook9
*wishes adra had never made me kiss him*
*Laughs at Duck* If you made it into your girlfriend, I'm 100% it would be a violent relationship ;)
Snow, don't be concerned :) There'll be tons of parings and stuff innnnnn... *checks time* six hours, ten minutes.
- WAIT, WHAT? YOU KISSED? :D :D :D :D Good dare, Adra, good dare :D
oh god... you didnt know?? *faceplants* great, just great...
Hello everyone!
I'll be asleep.
I am asleep.
Actually no, I'm repetitively rewatching the shadow video. But y'all don't know that.
See, I miss being Fabi sometimes.
#ChaseForBook9
*thinks* i'll have to sneak on and say i am writing....
Cali! It's been...like...a while!
...
I should be asleep if I want to wake up early enough that In not horribly late for the ball.
Msd.
#ChaseForBook9
Fabi; *laughs* I hope you get to sleep soon *hugs* This isn't fair on you.
Hi Calidae! *tackleglomps*
Snow; Okay, I'll quit being a fangirl for now :)
problemo solved.... i hope...
Yes, I'm feeling very incredibly guilty about my absence. I dont even KNOW how long its been.
no wait, much better...
hi.
i dont think we've met.
i am Snow. *hugs*
BUT I can assure everyone that I am not dead.
See! There are een people I havent met now. Hi Snow, Im Calidae :) Pleasure to meet you
Saph, nothing is ever fair.
But yeah, I should really be trying harder to sleep.
#ChaseForBook9
Calidae; *Tilts head* Are you sure? *Pokes arm* *Lifts eyelid with a finger* Hmm. You look a little dead. Are you sure you're not a zombie?
*laughs at saph* you odd, odd person.
Fabi; *laughs* God, don't I know that. *hugs again* Maybe you need sleeping pills.
Not being dead is good!
Also, the Requiem Ball's tomorrow. Which you might know already, but since you've been gone, I thought I'd mention it anyway.
Actually... It's tomorrow for me, no idea when for you.
#ChaseForBook9
I hope not. Ive heard being a zombie isnt fun. Especially the rotting part.
(Also, Snow, I love the name change)
Calidae; There are a billion new people everyday now :) It's a little scary.
I doubt it.
I think if I tried, I could sleep, but I feel...clearer than I have in a while, and I'm sort of worried I'll wake up and it'll be gone.
It sort of feels like I'm dreaming now, just 'cause... Not sure I can explain.
#ChaseForBook9
Fabi: I saw a comment in passing bout that, but you're right... I had no idea bout it!
*huggles all*
you people are amazing!!!
Fabi; Well, if by tomorrow you mean in six hours time :D I'm going to stay up until midnight, then be on for little while t celebrate before sleeping and celebrating Father's Day for a few hours.
Im in NZ, so it'll probably be at 2am or some annoying time for me.
Im assuming its just going to be here in blogland...?
in NZ??
it'll prob be at about 9 then, same as here in aus
Ah, coolio
It's at 5am for me.... I'm arriving late, obviously.
Really, though, it's whenever Derek posts.
And yeah, that is tomorrow for me. It's 11:04 in this part of the world!
#ChaseForBook9
Calidae, you live in NZ too?!! North or South Island? And it's midnight for us, because we're always ahead of every country. Except when it became 2000, Fiji cheated and moved their clocks to be first into a new millennium :)
Yeah, it's here in Blogland. [nods]
#ChaseForBook9
Woah! You are THE FIRST, no kidding, NZer Ive met here. After a while I thought I must be one of the only ones, so I elected myself grand mage.
Im in Windy Welly, you?
*Sees Fabi's earlier comment* *Nods* That makes sense. I just worry about you :J
Calidae;... Wellington? Seriously?
Can we email talk?
sapphireiota@gmail.com
sure :)
[Nods] So does my mother. [hugs]
#ChaseForBook9
I'mma just sneak off and do mischief while y'all are emailing!
Actually, no. I'm taking the opportunity to try to sleep again.
#ChaseForBook9
I'm still here. I'm just partially freaking out :D
Where'd Snow go?
omg.... my paint is being annoying...
Im here also
Aw, darn. Sneaky evil plan has been foiled.
S'okay, Saph. :-P
#ChaseForBook9
Okay.
Apparently Calidae and I are at the same school.
Anyone else freaking out?
Do I count!!?
...whoa. O.O
#ChaseForBook9
okay, i have it working!!
back in a bit, gotta go have dinner
hmm.... i need to draw a head now... fun...
Bye Cali!
I can't believe we probably know each other o_O
Snow; I'm trying to draw a nose. Noses are a weird shape :)
Noses aren't as hard for me as mouths...
#NoReallyImAsleepNow
#ChaseForBook9
Wbd, drawing and thinking about the fact I'm going to meet a Bloglandian for the first time on Wednesday :)
i give up on trying to design my OC
Back!
Just as a warning Saph, to everyone else, me and my friends are a little insane.
hi again!
*Hugs Cali*
Snow; Ah well. You know what she looks like, and that's the most important thing :)
*sighs*
i might miss the Requim ball... :(
Snow; Aww well *hugs*
Cali; You think you're insane? You ain't seen nothing yet ;)
hah :P I still cant quite believe that the first NZer ive met here, I've probably passed heaps of times in the corridor...
Cali; Ikr? I can't believe your form teacher is my Maths teacher XD
Msd, dinner.
*faceplants*
*Disappears from Blogland because of email*
g2g, byeeee!!
*huggles all*
*disappears*
Bye Snow!
The profiles on my phone keep refreshing . . .
This is not working. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

*starts to cry*
I don't want to read any more of LSODM but I have to...
*slams head off the desk*
Oh god...
*Glances at her watch* Technically the Ball should be on... And technically I am dead...
Uh. Isn't the ball meant to start at midnight, Aussie time?
I have no idea anymore... I've given up. On everything.
...Hello?

#chaseforbook9
hi.

gah... do you know how hard it is to think of names for characters??
*sighs, staring at screen*
Hi Snow! Have we met?
Oh and I know what you mean! Thinking of names is terrible...
*Waits patiently for Requiem Ball, even though I don't know if I can stay up long enough*
*Waits patiently for Requiem Ball, even though I don't know if I can stay up long enough*

#chaseforbook9
Hey Snow! Hey Mith! *tackleglomps* wbd, Father's Day stuff. I can't believe it's tomorrow...
Hello Saph! :)
Snow, did you find a name?
FLORA!! :) *tacklehugs*

Hi Flora! *tackleglomps*
Flora, you should feel honoured, you're the first person ever who got tacklehugged (?) by me :D
@Snow: *laughs* Nice name... yeah... *nods*
sadly, my character is still nameless... *is puzzled*
Snow; That OBVIOUSLY doesn't sound ANYTHING like anyone I know... ;P
*looks at saph, confuzzled* who does it sound like??
Snow; You :P
TIMEOUT! *waves* STOP!
Confuzzled?? What's that?
Cookie Burnson? i swear, that is a real name! no joke!!
confuzzled: my word for confused. :P
Mith; Confused :D
Mith; Confused :D
@saph IT DOES NO- oh... wait, it does... huh
Oh... *facepalms* Should have known that... grrr.
*sighs*
i still have no name :(
Want to play Truth or Dare?
Snow, what's your character like?
Snow: Maybe we could help you? Then you'd have to tell us a bit about your chara...
Saph: Never played this on blogland before...^^ But why not?
name change :P
yeah, truth or dare sounds fun
Snow; *Raises eyebrow* That's awesome! It's also creepy, but that doesn't stop it being awesome :)
Mith; Eh, it's pretty easy :)
Snow, do you want to ask me first?
sure.
saph: truth or dare!?
Hmmm... Truth :)
(Msd, bbs)
CIARA SHAUNA AND LAUREN SAY HI
CIARA JUST PRODUCED A NEW HIT SINGLE
IT'S CALLED "THE BEAT"
Buy it in all good record shops.
And even the bad ones, probably.
#ChaseForBook9
hmm...
if niccolo and trip asked you to dance at the Requim Ball, who would you pick and why? (its the first thing i thought of)
Playing Hide and go Seek :')
I LOVE THESE GIRLS I'LL MISS THEM SO MUCH D:
#ChaseForBook9
It starts in a few hours :)
ADRA, MARA!!! *huggles*
want to play truth or dare with us to pass the tie?
Hello, just thought I'd pop in.
VERY temporarily. I should be sleeping, have to wake up early tomorrow merrrr.
*time
i give up on names, btw... its just too hard
distance does not suit us :(
Snow; Trip. Definitely Trip. Coco is cool, but he kinda creeps me out a little. Trip is funny :)
Hi Adra and Mara! *tackleglomps* I have to disappear for a bit now, but I'll be back later :)
CALI/ PHOEBE
*hugs*
HELLOOOOO IT HAS BEEN A WHILE!

Oh. Yeah. *laughs at Saph*

Midnight Aussie time. WHICH Aussie time, however.... I dunno
Yeah I know I've been gone for aaaaaaggeeeeeess!!!!! Sorry bout that....

No, midnight NZ time, because we're first in the world :D one hour, fifteen mins
*sighs* i hate how i miss the beginning of things...
I know!! *huggles* We've missed you!
There's a ton of new people... ;D
Also, Snow, it goes from 12 midnight on the thirty first for Aussies to 12 midnight on the first for Americans. It's a 36 hour ordeal
Mwa hahaha were the first to get christmas
Wait WHAT, Saph

:P
What is it with Truth or Dare now? :P
I noticed all the new people!! I felt so superior and old.
Then I remembered I mostly wasn't
*fist pumps*

Okay, msd, but apparently I AM here
saph, its your turn to ask a Truth or Dare quetion
Well in that case saph, hi again!!
Adra, NZ is always first in the world. Apart from in 2000, Fiji changed all the clocks in the country forward so they could be first into the new millennium :)
Cali; I know *laughs*
Hello Calidae! *shakes hand* I'm Mith.
Uh... Cali, Truth or Dare? (Hi! *tackleglomps*)

@Mith: I feel totally honoured! THANKYOU *tacklehugs* :D
And yo (again) everyone else! <3
#chaseforbook9
Oh god we are going to BURN through the ball posts...
Right. We need to make a pact right now to not spam, or do one work "um" or something to get first.... Because that takes up comments and Idk how many posts Derek will make. Probably no more than one although we will need it
* hugs * hi mith, pleasure to meet you. Call me Cali, or Calidae, or dark, or cal, but not dae. That just sounds weird.
*Shakes head at Snow sadly* I'm sorry, you have the last stages of fangirlism. We can't save you :'(
Hmm, dare
Bye Flora!
FANGIRLISM IS WHAT I HAVE!!!
Damnit... Star isn't online... D;
#ChaseForBook9
Hm... dae... no. Cali is better :D
Adra; That sounds good to me :)
Cali; Okay, I dare you to announce to all Bloglandians who come on between here and when the Ball starts/ you leave that you are going to the dance with Scapegrace. Refuse to dance with anyone else.
