Short Story Contest #5 - Poll

[Wolfe]

So what about the people who voted for themselves?

Their vote is not counted in the final tally.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

Dragonson you have ABSOLUTELY nothing to worry about... trust me.
@Vizel, seriously, no sweat. It's usually a month at least before a hive contest gets judged, even if you take a week more it'll be quick by it's standards

 

[InfinateAnswers]

Dragons team and twifs team shouldn't have anything to worry about, but everyone else its a blind race.

 

[Vengeancekael]

I'm personally patient, I can tell about contest #3 being judged for about a month and a half.

Rep for the one who judged the fourth one in less than a month? ogre_hurrhurr

 

[Fussiler1]

No.

Anyways, still waitin'.

 

[Dragonson]

Dragonson you have ABSOLUTELY nothing to worry about... trust me.

Dragons team and twifs team shouldn't have anything to worry about.

Oh, i'm pretty sure both of you will be proven wrong.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

lol... you never know.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

Indeed, prediction:

1st Place -> idodik & naitsirk
2nd Place -> Baassee and Fuss
3rd Place -> IF and ID
4th Place -> Wolfe (Dragonson got arrested (^^))
5th Place -> PeP and ZeA
Unranked -> Grey and TWIF, reasons?
Grey = Snorting maltesers in the local gym's little girls room :O
TWIF = Lost his chequebook.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

My prediction

1.) Pep and ZeA
2.) Tie between W&D, and G&T
3.) Me and my slave (Indominable)
5.) Basseeeee and other
4.) idok and nait

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

Well, my and Vizel's prediction will be available soon, I hope.
Vizel, I just hope you formated the judging properly

Oh, and good luck to all till the end. Thought you probably don't need it now.

 

[indomitable1319]

Slave...
Yes master...

 

[The World Is Flat]

Too embarrased to post.

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

Vizel is finishing soon.

 

[-Peper-]

Basseeeee and other

Fussiler is referenced as 'other'????
Poor fussiler, IA is too lazy to remember your name.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

if i dont have to state his name for you to understand who i am talking about, then i wont. As my motto says =)

 

[idodik]

Too embarrased to post.

What is there to be embarrassed about? It's not like Grey's post needs to be taken seriously.
I haven't read your story, so I don't know its worth, but even if supposedly the writing of it didn't go well you could only learn from it to help you write much better next time. I've read your story in contest #3 so I know your talent's worth!

Good luck to everyone in the judging! Having not read the stories there is completely no point for me in making a prediction.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

Something to take into account is, this contest was situated badly. It was close to the holidays so many people didnt have the time.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

nah, nah.
Maybe I really do snort maltesers ...
crush em' first ofc, too big to snort whole.

Honestly? I don't think a single one of those stories is bad, I've seen some pretty dire attempts before and these don't come close (to being that bad).

Suuuuuuuuure we didn't all get what we wanted out of it 100%, but if we did... we'd be perfect and NOTHIN' AIN'T NOTHIN' Puuuuuuuurrrrrfect

 

[Fussiler1]

5.) Basseeeee and other

Every time you forget my name a puppy dies.

Anyways, I hope we did good.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

Every time you question my wisdom...

A bunny dies.

@gray, we all had the same amount of time, we all had the lack of completion, if we had the same 100% completion, then the outcome will be the same. Proportionally it wouldnt have changed no matter how much more time we had.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

no, no, no.
I meant it's impossible to be 100% happy with your work, it can't be perfect, not that noone finished... but yeah personally more time wouldn't have made much difference I think.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

It is what it is.

 

[indomitable1319]

Every time you forget my name a puppy dies.

A bunny dies.

Stop killing things! Okay?!?!?! D:

 

[The World Is Flat]

FUCK YOU ALL.

Every time somone spams. I kill one of these.

 

[indomitable1319]

NOOOooOOnoNONOOnonoON!1212!@!@!@!1!!@!!onetwo!12!1!!onetwo

...

 

[InfinateAnswers]

he just killed another one.... GOOD JOB INDOM

 

[Wolfe]

This thread is not for being idiots, you know.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

sorry the anticipation is killing me. I figure he'll be done tomorow so im scared.

 

[Vizel]

Not tomorrow. By the end of the week, Things keep popping up. It'll happen eventually. For now, I must sleep. People having babies, with no one to watch their other kids screws with timetables.

I need to start charging her for this, I'm too nice. But they are such good kids,

 

[Fussiler1]

This thread is not for being idiots, you know.

or is it?

Anyways, the end of the week sounds fine.

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

This thread is not for being idiots, you know.

I already warned some users that I will report them if they continue acting like idiots and spam this thread with off-topic content. Again, repel from doing that.
We all like your idiotic comments, don't we?

 

[InfinateAnswers]

sigh, atleast you have a sure time. If u said end of the month that would really drive me nuts...

 

[Fussiler1]

This is very insulting to some people. Please refrain from flaming.

Oh and some people do.

See what I did there?



Now back to srs bsns:

sigh, atleast you have a sure time. If u said end of the month that would really drive me nuts...

Same.

 

[Dragonson]

Why dont we have someone lock this until the judges are finished?

 

[InfinateAnswers]

agreed. Someone lock it.

 

[Apheraz Lucent]

Mean comment

Every time when idiot post a comment in this thread, a fairy dies. Oh, wait, we ran out of fairies?

Vizel, how's the judging going so far?

 

[Grey Nightmare]

They shouldn't need to lock it, I (would like to)think were all mature enough to just stay on topic or refrain from posting here.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

The judging is almost done so this thread is almost useless.

 

[Pyritie]

jeez you guys, quit spamming up this thread

 

[Vizel]

My life got very chaotic recently, and as a quick summary, I'm not attending school this semester, and am lucky to still have a job.

That said, I wish I could give you a set time, but, I don't think I can. I've got half done, just haven't had time to do the others, but I've read the fourth. Just don't remember it enough. Gotta reread it. I'm trying guys. Please have patience as I work through the sludge.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

np, take your time dude... Shit happens

 

[Dragonson]

Sounds like you just got run over by the big bad monster truck of cosmic oh-crapness.
Take your time Viziel. I'm pretty sure you need it somewhere else.

 

[indomitable1319]

I agree with Dragonson.

 

[InfinateAnswers]

The stars must have aligned so that that all the bad cosmic energy is transferred to you... god speed vizel.

Edit: I give up on this contest, idc for the results anymore.

 

[Vengeancekael]

You guys should obviously know that you're going to have the time to judge the entries when you sign up to become the judge of a contest.


Now look what you've done.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

Well to be fair, Vizel did state that he would prefer not to judge due to time constraints but would step in if no one else did. =/

 

[Dragonson]

He did.
And actually i think it would currently be best if we could find someone else for the judging, as a single judge wont work (no offense apheraz) and taking this burden off viziel's shoulders would most possibly be doing him a favour with the cosmic bad luck he's having right now. :S

 

[tagg1080]

I right poetry and short stories in my spare time, and would be willing to cast some judgement, if someone was needed to replace as a judge.

I am extremely anal about writing though, so don't expect me to be nice,


Just throwing the offer out there, seems like it is needed.

 

[The World Is Flat]

We'd need some examples.

 

[Dragonson]

No offense tagg, but we need someone who can judge on the judging points on the first post.
This includes grammar, and the first thing you do is to misspell 'write' (or post something that makes no sense in context) .
