Dear Worthian,

I am writing to you to express many thanks on behalf of the ”˜Worthian Widows and Widowers Society’. It was so kind of you to agree to crash the Worthian system. Pretending to have a hard disc failure was a superb deception.

Although my dear husband was traumatised at first and spent a number of hours staring at a frozen screen, I eventually coaxed him away. He was of course desperately worried about not being able to vote and not being able to see where he stood in the competitions. But I am pleased to say that this anxiety slowly subsided.

After a while he remembered my name, and even better, the children’s names. So Chloe and Isabella will be forever in your debt.

Tom has now promised to return to work. So this little break has enabled us to avoid bankruptcy and has saved our marriage.

I am sure all members of the WW&W Society have had an equally positive experience.

Thank you again.
Very Best Wishes,
Sonya Shoesmith

PS Please can we make this an annual event. I could plan ahead, and Tom could take the children and me out for the day.

You don't have to be a President or a Princess to have a conspiracy theory wrapped around you! (Of course many thanks to everyone who got the site up and running again.)

Thank you Worth 1000 for creating a wonderful web site where people like me can allow our creative juices to flow. It’s a true pleasure to visit your site on a daily basis where I may compete with other …more talented individuals. I love viewing the winning entries each week and finding my meager entry …on page 3. I gleefully covet the ludicrous comments on my abilities and I’m so encouraged by the 3.5s I constantly achieve. I can however, see the growth I’m making as I now know what a layer is. Someday I hope to have credits to pay my own way. Until that time, I’ll continue to gratuitously receive sponsored charity and take more from you than I give. Thanks again.

I wish wanted to thank everyone who has helped me on Worth1000 for all their wonderful critques on my artwork, which I have spent hours working on. I especially wanted to single out those special few, who will remain nameless, for saying my art looked like it was put together with a chainsaw. Oh, the smiles in my heart from your professional words of wisdom. Master artists, like yourselves, giving out your helpful insight on the world of art. So, to show my appreciation, my chainsaw and I will visit each and every one of you and cut off your ears, Van Gogh style. If you're going to act like a great artist, you might as well look like one too. So, enjoy listening to yourself giving out those helping hints, you won't be hearing them for long. Think of me on the next Starry Night, ear mark my visit. I'll be sawing...I mean, seeing you soon. And please, critique my handywork.

Can you possibly know how much I dig your website? You see
after all the online writing contests I have been in, this one
literally kicks the best butt. And although I have been tied up
lately, I do my hardest
To enter as often as I can. So
here is my
entry which everyone hopefully likes.
Please people, vote for my entry. You see, I
only have limited access to a computer. Something
like once a month. And
it may be much longer after this. My internet
connection may be permanently turned off if
everything doesn't start turning around for me.
I need to stay positive though.
Needless to say,
everything is not going that well as most
everyone I have known has had tough times. I ask you,
do you really know how tough it is these days? But I'm rambling. Sorry.
Hope you guys vote for me. I would love a gold medal! It's a most
excellent way for you to encourage
literary
pursuits!!!!!!!!!

Dear WorthOneThousians,
Thank you for your continued support for my artwork. I previously won 3rd, and I’m really, really pleased. I can tell at first that you didn’t much care for my work, but when I got better so did my ratings. Also, thanks for the people that got my hate e-mails and now listen to my death threats to give my work good ratings. It’s Ok that I had to stalk that one guy and blackmail him, it’s all for a good cause. I’m pretty sure that I ruined a few peoples lives because of that Color Me 6 contest I got LAST in, but they deserved it, so it’s alright. Once again, Thanks. And remember when you vote…..I’m always watching…..

Just a quick note to thank you for extinguishing the mules. Although I’m not exactly sure what a Smeangy is I can appreciate that it must of taken you a long time to milk, or squeeze, or otherwise coax-out all that fluid only to sacrifice it on a fire.

It was our first year shellacking the mules; in hindsight, we probably should have put a little more distance between the baby juggler, the 'flaming-pointy-stick' juggler, and the town's shiniest (and regretfully flammable) asses. But thanks to your quick thinking and sacrifice, the juggler was able to keep most of the babies in the air, and relatively flame free and non porous.

Good news: our surgeon general, an expert in burning mules (he studied at Harvard), assures us that the burning sensation in your lungs is not from mule smoke. Apparently the ingredients commonly used to make the festival's candy was inadvertently mixed with ingredients that should never ever be used to make candy. He recommends that you don't take any food or water “by mouth” for at least 2 weeks.

Again, our heartfelt thanks and best regards to your Smeangies and their conflagration fighting excretions.

Sincerely,
Mayor Fookleyur

This is a translation of a letter I wrote when I was the mayor. It should be noted that I later reduced the fine for breeding of Smeangies without a permit, and allowed him to hold off on submitting payment until we could find a way of separating the angry wet magistrate from the signifying monkey without killing them both.
