Good call on the competition, I certainly noticed increased activity in the story forum:)


I’ll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it’s flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

Yes, it is Attorney:Carmen_Naso

I'm going to go hole myself up somewhere with lots of food and no distractions for a few days.

You have to wonder how the smaller stories will compete.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.

If this is still going on, I'm gonna cook up a story for one of my characters.

EDIT: Damn, two hours over. I'll write that story anyway.

Quantity isn't necessarily quality. The problem with long stories (like Dreygon's) is that they're so long, little mistakes are left in. The author will look at all of those pages of writing and go 'screw it, I'm not going through all that and correcting it'. I know this from experience, with my own 60-something A4 page epic, Destiny.

i really don't write that much. it's just 2 years and a few months of writing during my lunch break at work. i have a character that i like, and i try to explain my actions and behavior in game through stories. i think Mon'Star is an awesome villain and like i say....i just like drawing him and writing about him

i actually have went back at edited some of the earlier writings of Mon'Star. As he grew and fleshed out in my head i needed to adjust a few things here and there. i try to mix quantity with quality, i'd like to think i've done a fair job at it.

good luck to all those who've entered the contest

I would agree.

I've finished all the stories, and will harrass the admin/mod team into commenting on them and deciding a winner. Hopefully I'll have a result by Monday.

There's a reason I chose a story that's 11 (short) posts long for this. That was for you Mwerte <3

Jammi is disqualified for pestering me. Too bad, he had all the votes and was going to win. ;)
