QUOTE(mALX @ Mar 15 2013, 01:38 PM)  I thought we had till midnight tonight? Yep  It could be that people were just waiting until the very last minute before submitting? In which case - great! I was just afraid after the previous posts, that people had forgotten completely about it (and I felt guilty, as I'd pinned the topic thinking that was a good thing - but I suspect that if it had remained where it had been with normal updates, people might have paid more notice to it). |

QUOTE(Burnt Sierra @ Mar 15 2013, 07:27 AM) None? Okaaay. Perhaps we could put the deadline back a bit, to give everyone who forgot time to submit one? And also perhaps have people who are planning on entering one, say so here - then they can be mercilessly mocked if they fail to do so  Nothing like a combination of guilt and fear of public humiliation to beat a deadline...Public humiliation doesn't affect me as much anymore XD -------------------- |

I don't think that hurt anything Burnt, I think we're supposed to PM them to Mustard so the submissions are kept anonymous. (then he posts them). Once the voting starts maybe it should be in the regular forum so it stays in sight though. This post has been edited by mALX: Mar 15 2013, 03:17 PM -------------------- |

I'll wait until midnight tonight before I make any moves in regard to the deadline, but if the current number of entries I've received stays the same (that is, zilch), we're going to have to move it forward. tbh, Burnt Sierra, I've got a feeling that once we'd got the initial Q&A posting out of the way, the thread would have dropped down to the bottom of the board in any case. |

Yes, we have had a posting frenzy on the Fic forum this past week. Even people actively posting are moved to the bottom quickly, lol. -------------------- |

QUOTE(Colonel Mustard @ Feb 12 2013, 11:25 PM) [/b]The final deadline for entries is Midnight GMT, Friday 15th March 2013. An entry can be sent to me at any time between now and then. GMT. Less than 2 hours left... Why the hell did I never learn to type properly, this one finger on each hand malarky is doing my head in... I swear, the typing it up is taking longer than the writing it in the first place... Can we change it to USA time? I might actually get it typed up by then! |

Y'all have me giggling XD
Colonel isn't in the USA, though, and I have an inkling that we're almost evenly spread out between the US and other countries. So if we could just postpone this for another week... XD -------------------- |

So if we could just postpone this for another week... XD GAAAAAAH!!!! NOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!! I found 4 mistakes in my entry, had to correct them and send the corrected copy in. Hope Mustard doesn't mind. Over at the Bethesda Official forums I think Darkom had to put up with me correcting my entry 8 times, lol. I won't do that to you Mustard!

Yeah, Mustard's in London...
I'm not playing in this particular game, so I have no opinion on how it goes... Just thought I'd add that US time is roughly anywhere between 5 and 8 hours behind us, so we're talking early morning tomorrow here, if the postponing doesn't play out... |

Nooo, I used to have this friend in San Francisco and when I'd be up at absurd o' clock talking away on the messy, she'd be early evening-ish the night before...

You can squeak in with 200 words/hour if you use EST! Go Sierra Go!!
I've been to the local taproom tonight and cannot entirely feel my fingers. I guess this is a bad time to start an entry. -------------------- Jerric's Story * Darnandex * Screenshot: Cyrodiil Meadow |
