PokéCommunity's Small Writing Contest!

txtclipse, that is an early post, so ten minutes from now, it'll be 9 hours until the deadline. :P And also, noticed that both of us are in the same timezone, so yeah, entries are due 9pm that time for you. Another all nighter doing the reviews for me! XD

It is 11:59 EST, so 8 hours and 59 minutes I think. Cause currently it is almost 3pm there.

Edit: Ninja'd!

I'm dropping out. I won't make it in time. :( And I have writer's block.

Well crap. I get off of work at nine. Guess I'll have to finish up in two hours. ;_;

It's 11:59 eastern time, so 10:59 central (my time), 9:59 mountain, and 8:59 pacific. I see now that I was ninja'D but I'll keep that there for people in different time zones anyway.

Doesn't matter to me now though as I just PMed my entry to Gummy. :D Just under 6 pages and 3500 words, so not too short but not too long in my opinion either. I did end up proofreading it again but hardly found any grammatical errors or typos. They must be hiding from me... <_< I did end up changing a handful of things, though, so it wasn't a waste. The final title I decided on if anyone's interested is "Three-Sixteen".

Glad to see that a compromise between the two posting possibilities was made, especially as I just thought of another reason I want my own thread (or post at least): to be able to edit in fixes to typos and such that people point out. Speaking of which, I still have some in the latest chapter of TRINITY I need to fix...

Speaking of titles, I decided with 'The Magnet Board'

(not it has nothing to do with electric or steel Pokemon).

I'm excited however, as to when we'll get to see everyone's entry, and eventually the winner.

Well, since txty's work is apparently going to be rushed, I might actually have a chance of winning now!

Wait, Shrike turned his in. Damn, I guess I can still hope for 2nd place.

EDIT:

Since everyone seems to be posting their titles now, mine's "There's Always Tomorrow."

I just finished mine. It's a little short story, 1 page long. Do I just PM it to Gummy?

gah, well, im almost done editing and revising, if i get it dont in 2 hours, will that be okay.

Title: The Calamity

"A Chance" by Eleclion has been entered. :)

Since everyone has posted their story titles, mine is "The Winds of Time", if anyone cares. x3

Also, I wouldn't mind the one thread idea, but the index thread with linkage would be lovely as well. C: Just my two cents on that matter. :p

I'm about to fix a couple of post-PM errors I noticed, and re-submit.

Title's "Where Gods Dare Not Tread."

alright, i have finally submitted the final version! =D

Just to remind you guys you all have one hour left to turn in your entries :P

My entry has been sent... Title: Legends Always Die

Just in the nick of time.

Good luck everyone. ;)

Just made it. I think. That's what the time zone converter said anyway. If not, I'm screwed. :(
Title: Reflection in the Storm

Yeah Redstar, just in the nick of time. :P

All right everyone, no more entries please! Gummy, Astinus, and me are now going to go ahead and judge the entries. Should probably take us a week or two until we're done with the results. However, don't rush us. Gummy and Astinus also have real life stuff to take care of and not only I have stuff to do but am very busy with another contest at Serebii. So yeah, be patient with us even though the Get Together is over. ^^;

EDIT: Dang it Mizan, you have to post before me. D: Well, I would accept it even if it's a few minutes late as sometimes the forums can get laggy. However, not sure if Gummy will. We'll have to wait and see then.

Click to expand...

If you're five to ten minutes off, I think they shouldcut you some slack. Allowances have to be made for time zone differences/clock inconsistencies, and for actually sending the entry... Heck, it took me 15 minutes to format my story right in the PM...

So. Looks like we should head back to the Lounge?
