Going strictly by scores, I think that means I tied for third place with another author. The way the results were presented really was confusing. Nobody appears to be declared a first, second, or third-place winner.

What's a hook? Other than something used to suspend people off the ground in a rather terrifying combination of piercing and bondage?
