I got it too. But I'll hold off on reading it until all entries are in. That way, they can be properly numbered for judging purposes.

Thank you very much! I will get to work :D

It's due in...2 days, was it? I dunno which timezone you guys are using, but I think the US timezone is still in Wednesday, isn't it?(My timezone is 6 hours away from friday so I dunno much.)

"And you must be Jonathan Joestar!" - SueSubmitted in mine! Wasn't as polished as I liked due to me traveling this week, but hopefully it'll suffice.
Alright, got yours. For now, I'll just hold off until tomorrow to send it to the judges, in case someone else submits as well. That's fine, right?(Also, I "might" be a bit late tomorrow, but I'll try to send to the judges as soon as tomorrow comes.)
"And you must be Jonathan Joestar!" - SueMine will be ready in a few hours :). I am still on time right?

Make your hearth shine through the darkest night; let it transform hate into kindness, evil into justice, and loneliness into love.As far as I'm concerned, yes you should be.
"And you must be Jonathan Joestar!" - SueBy my clock you still got 14 hours.
Oh? that's perfect! Cuz tomorrow I would be free in more or less 14 hours. I'll send the remaining(as well as the already sent links) to you three again.
And Parable, switch back to ponytail Haruhi(Or was it Kyonko? Can't really tell). Looks much better that way in my honest opinion.
"And you must be Jonathan Joestar!" - SueIt's Kyonko.
Just for the record, I don't believe I'll be re-editing my work at all before the deadline, so feel free to send in the current version. I'm actually fairly happy with it!
"And every life is a special story of its own." —The Stargazer, Mass Effect 3Wait, we are allowed to edit and re-send our stuff even if we sent it before the deadline got extended?
Gotcha. Thanks.
It's done and submitted :). I think it is perhaps the darkest thing I have ever written

Make your hearth shine through the darkest night; let it transform hate into kindness, evil into justice, and loneliness into love.57 minutes till deadline is passed. After that, dana will be sending out the stories for review!
Anyone late better hustle!
Alright, official confirmation here. I've sent everything to all 3 judges already. It's NOW up to them. Good luck, guys.
Um, so...how often does this contest happen? Once a year? Once a month? I'm rather interested in becoming either a handler or a contestant for the next one.(Not both, of course.)

"And you must be Jonathan Joestar!" - SueI'm pretty sure it's generally about every 3 to 6 months.
Every 3 to 6 months, with a "whenever we feel like it" chaser. If somebody feels like hosting one, they can, and we've had a few specialized writing contests before.
So are we running with just the 6 current entries, or are we waiting on anyone? Just making sure.
"Proto-Indo-European makes the damnedest words related. It's great. It's the Kevin Bacon of etymology." ~MadrugadaSix? I'm almost 100% sure I only sent five 0.o.
and well, unless I interpreted wrong, the deadline's passed, and there probably isn't gonna be more submissions.
Ah, 3 to 6 months, huh? I guess I'll be lurking around here in this particular subforum until then.
"And you must be Jonathan Joestar!" - SueI got five. And I'm pretty sure that's it.
DEADLINE HAS PASSED. NO MORE ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED.
JUDGES WILL HAVE A WEEK TO READ AND REVIEW. SCORES SHOULD BE POSTED BY NEXT SATURDAY OR SOONER.
Ah, excellent! My heartiest thanks to everyone who had a part in setting up the whole affair; I've greatly enjoyed entering and now await the results of judging with bated breath!
...You know what, just because I'm paranoid: my entry WAS received satisfactorily, right? It never hurts to double-check.
Oh, and also: That Bobafett avatar is quite possibly the Best of all Things.

"And every life is a special story of its own." —The Stargazer, Mass Effect 3It seems like we usually hold out for at least six or seven entries. Ah well. Let's do dis thang!
"Proto-Indo-European makes the damnedest words related. It's great. It's the Kevin Bacon of etymology." ~MadrugadaCan' wait :). To be honest I don't expect to win. I am more exited about the feedback and the tips to improve myself

Alright, that's great. I definitely have enough time now, so I'm still in. Thanks, Judges.
Edit: Fallen Legend, I don't think you should give up or anyone else still in the game. I think we have enough time to pull it out.
