This was a fun read and very on theme. Well done!

Rats, gobbos and neither ability to follow their plans due to bad luck and meddling. This story was my definite favourite in this jam so if you win well done and if not well your story is my winner. I loved all the things going wrong as normal for gobbos and the lack of courage by ratmen when they start to die. The ending was inspired and overall a great story I read twice just to soak it all in.

Oh the subtle humour laced through this was the icing on the cake! Great story telling the interaction at the end was brilliant too. Great job.

This is the best one by far

I had a lot of fun reading this one - your flow is strong and your character voices are engaging. The ending leaves me confused, though -- I'm still not 100% sure why Archedes isn't reporting the goblin sitting right in front of him.

Goblins, rats and Space Brothers, what a perfect mix! I absolutely want more of this, I enjoyed every moment!

It was great, I enjoyed reading about how things just weren’t going to work out for them. It could be fleshed out into something really funny I think.

This was fantastic, it's not easy to co-ordinate two separate story arcs like that and you pulled it off perfectly.

Thoroughly enjoyed this one.

That was fun, and a great surprise take on the theme. 

Always good to see Goblins and Rats being themselves even though it makes heisting hard sometimes. 

Great work!

I really liked the sort of ironic take on the theme.  Nicely done.
