Scout574:
Here's the deal, your story is simply too long. In light of this, rather than disqualifying you, I will do the same thing I did for ITIalevolent, which is to remove points for any errors found in the area which exceeds the limit. These point removals are 100% at my discretion.
If you would rather be disqualified, notify me before the results are released.
As for the liberties you took with the theme, I didn't have anything innately against them - though points may be reducted if I find that it went too far at any given point (this choice will be made when the grading happens - something I have yet to give a deadline for, sadly).
Anyways, I just wanted to notify you as to the state of your story in the qualifiers list, because it is rather unique.

I wanted to notify you that your story has qualified, despite its rather strange interpretation of the theme (which I cannot blame you for, because I neglected your questions, sorry). =p
