SO CLOSE YET SO FAR
Jim Mercurio, the Screenwriting Expo Competition coordinator has made available the list of winner and finalists. We, of course, are only concerned with one category.
Nice to know where I stand.
Also, because the finalists lists are evenly split between half hour and hour (as was with the quarters) that's like saying "top five in hour-long." (I can be very good at self aggrandizing sometimes).
Also also, noting that none of the other House specs made it (see?).
Also also also, a shout out to fellow competition finalist and blogette Elisabeth Fies and her Pistoleras, a semifinalist in features (ZOMG, a sentence that wasn't about how awesome I am).
UPDATE: Hey, I won some stuff too. Happy dance performed.

Congrats!
House is a huge challenge-- the characters, the procedural aspect to the medical mystery... I'm not surprised you don't see many House specs up there. Way to go!
Congratulations - I think doing a House spec has to be more challenging than Lost, and WTF is up with the Family Guy one? Really? Is it a bunch of random jokes and too-long, unfunny gags?
Congratulations! That's a significant placement.
Ooh, so close...but hey, you made it further than than Jul and I. Of course, we didn't get past the first round, so...
Impatiently waiting for AAA Screenwriting to put their finalists up. I liked it better when I DIDN'T know the dates...
Congrats! Stop to smell the roses of your accomplishment and then get right back to writing... you're clearly on the right track.

Congratulations!!! Hoping that success brings you more.
cheers

Congrats!!! See you at the expo?
I'll be there.
Congrats. I'm in there too - that's my Ugly Betty - and I did exactly the same as you... Top 5 in hour-long! The only Ugly Betty to make it!
Did you actually win stuff other than admission to the expo? Cuz if so I wanna know where's mine?
Why not tell us all how you managed to do a House? It's my favorite show but I can't imagine even attempting it. Did you get a medical degree before you started writing?
