Monthly Writing Competition: Keep Up The Standard!

[Gizmo]

I just noticed...

It appears as if some wires got crossed in that link you provided.

I was always the writer of Battle Royale...I just didn't know how to tell people.

[Uncle Kenny]

By the way, if trapped didn't mention it, all of you guys are punished for a solid week.

@ultimateclima: I'd add you to the first post but this thread isn't mine. If I were you, I'd beat the crap out of Kitsune. Just sayin if I was you is all. I mean, you could totally take him. You got robot legs and shit.

@Kitsune: If you didn't notice, I'm loudly exclaiming my displeasure with your performance. I am neither satisfied, nor was I aroused when you managed to get it half up. This entire experience has been an awkward and drawn out build-up with no pay-off. Please take your items and semen and get off my bed.

[Shuhan]

Well, since my first punishment didn't fly...here is my own self imposed punishment...

Im no whimp...

[Wooden_Giraffe]

Wait....we're allowed to reject the punishment?

[Kitsune Inferno]

Wooden that sig is too big

[Shuhan]

Wait....we're allowed to reject the punishment?

I didn't reject it...Robby did

your stuck with yours~

[Wooden_Giraffe]

Lol, I guess Robby would do that.

[Uncle Kenny]

If that sig is too big, I'm going to be pissed, trapped.

Can't you punish anyone right? >=(

[Kitsune Inferno]

Yo. Yo.

I know you're all taking issue with the fact that I haven't been able to update the first post in a timely manner. For that, I am truly sorry and ask that you bear with me for just a couple more days. It's not that I don't have time to do it anymore, I just don't have time to do it right now. This week is finals week, graduation, I'm packing and moving this weekend, all while trying to have some semblance of a social life at the same time with some very important people that I'm about to lose physical contact for potentially the rest of my life.

So, yeah, updating this is probably the last thing on my mind at this moment. This should all clear up by Saturday and things should return to normal, but until that point I just ask that you be patient and bear with me. The two stories not in the first post are Trials and Tribulations and Thriller Blend.

I'm sorry if this comes across as bitchy but today's been a very bad day so... yeah, please ease up on the pestering for just these next couple of days.~

I have 2 questions :

1) Do you need your own writing thread to participate or can I send my story in email or copy paste it here?
2)Where in Word do you see how many chars you have used?

[Shuhan]

Hey, hey, hey...

Guess who has a submission for May...

1. Yes. You need your own thread.

2. I don't know if it's the same in Word but in AbiWord it's: Tools > Word Count. When it brings up the word count there should also be stats for character count as well.

Congratulations, Shu man.~

[gotta<3OP]

In word: Just click the number of words, on the bottom of the screen. If you're in an early version it should show the characters and not the words, by default. :3

[Shuhan]

2)Where in Word do you see how many chars you have used?

I dunno about that but I found a useful link to help with character count.

http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/...harcount.shtml

just copy and paste your work into the box and hit calculate.

Congratulations, Shu man.~

What can I say, punishment makes me wanna write more~

[Uncle Kenny]

Don't worry, I'm every bit sadistic enough to meet your high, masochistic standards.~

[LaCaSiNa]

Can we expect to have the reviews soon-ish? :>

[Shuhan]

I know I had till the 15th to hand in my reviews last time...so I'd expect in a couple more days...

[Kitsune Inferno]

They're coming, or at least mine are.~ I've got two more to write so be patient kiddos.~

[LaCaSiNa]

Oh, sorry if I seemed hasty, I just wanted to ask. :) I remember the deadline being the 15th from my own time of judging~

[metteminne]

Wheeeee~~~, I can't wait for it ~~~
