How tentative is tentative exactly? Because I thought I was going to have to rush it tonight, so if it's really on Wednesday (or Thursday morning where I'm from), I won't rush it.
Tentative as in one of us hasn't seen the discussions on it yet so if they have a reason for it to end when it should have it might end sooner than that, that's all. That probably won't be the case but yeah, expect it to end at Wednesday 11:59 EST, don't be surpised on the off-chance it ends sooner.

On that note if you wish to re-submit entries with edits or whatnot before the new due date/time we'll take the later submission, and maybe post here if you intend to do so as well, that'd be nice for us to know.

I have just submitted my entry to the three judges. (In two parts, to my shame; it's execrably long.)

Just PM'd my entry, too. I kinda had to really make myself sit down and finish it.

I quite liked the prompt, but I don't have a one-shot brain. I kept thinking, Well, I could use this in a later chapter... Oh wait. So I'm not sure if I pulled it off all that well.

Suuuper last minute but I got mine sent. It's really short so hopefully you're not too upset to get this one entry in right before the deadline. XD

I actually wasn't planning on entering but I was suddenly struck with an idea about three hours ago and got to work (and also made an account here :P ). I'm not totally happy with it but there wasn't a whole lot of time for fine tuning.

Good luck to everyone!

After writing this in between certain other obligations, I've finally managed to finish, and I've sent it. I hope that I didn't miss the deadline. The time zone converter better not have lied. >_>

Good luck! (b'')b

All recieved! And there's less than one hour left so... don't be late if there are any other writers. =p

I suspect you may need to be patient as we now have 19 entries, by far the best turnout for these competitions. Needless to say judging this all will take some time. ;p

So is it just kind of a "The results will be posted when we say so!" type thing? x3
Well, considering we got a lot of entries to look through, it's going to us a bit. However, since for the Get Together the results have to be posted soon, we might be able to get them done in a week or two.

Edit: And icomeanon6, we got your entry in!

'kay folks, around 40 more minutes to turn in your entries! GO GO GO GO GO~

Anddddddd the contest is now closed! We're not accepting entries anymore after this!

I want to thank everyone who have turned in their entries on time! The judges will now look through the stories and sorting out the scores. We'll get the results in as soon as possible!

Sorry about the late entry. As I explained in the PM, I was not able to even get onto Pokecommunity.com I kept trying, over and over, but it said that there was a "stunfisk" and that the server was too busy. I don't like to make excuses, but I simply wasn't able to submit the writing, although I had it done an hour ahead of time. Thank you for considering my request.

That's all right. The downtime seemed to strike at the right moment. PERFECT TIMING. @[email protected] Heck, it's taking a while for this post to load. x_x Like I said to you in PM, though, I'll talk to bobandbill and see if he's fine with it/will add your name in the list of entrants.

Okay, because my last post was merged...the contest is now closed! We're not accepting entries anymore!

(Again) I want to thank everyone who have turned in their entries on time! The judges will now look through the stories and sorting out the scores. We'll get the results in as soon as possible!

Yep, we noticed the downtime started about a half-hour before the end time for the contest. -_- Typical PC. So your entry is accepted, -ty- (it was only received just after the database started 'recovering' anyway so it would have been within the time anyway I believe and all).

So yeah, OFFICIALLY CLOSED NOW! TWENTY-ONE ENTRIES! Good work people, that's easily a record imo. As said, we'll be done with judging when we're done with it in-between our usual lives and duties and whatnot, but hopefully it will not take that long. =) Remember only to post your entry after scores are released or you will be disqualified.
