RPGC #10: The Moon!

[RomanAria]

@Silver Nope, you will not. If it's in the PM box it is accepted, and as long as it doesn't break any guild rules it will be featured in the thread. (I'm not going to check the account until the day that entries are due, lest the system inadvertently mark everything as read.)

Also: If you decide there's something wrong with your story, you can edit that PM as many times as you would like between now and the day entries are posted.

AWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yea hopefully I won't screw up the deadline like I did last time. STUPID STUPID STUPID UGH OMG

Hey @Dark Wind u should do this too. U know. If ur man enough.

[PlatinumSkink]

I haven't yet had an idea that I'm proud enough about to actually make a reality. We'll see.

[Hedgehawk]

Is there a suggested word count or max word count for this?

[Ellri]

Nope, @jakeb1993

[RomanAria]

@jakeb1993 There most certainly is not. We've had hundred-or-less word poems, all the way up to entries that have, by themselves, broken the character count limit of posts.

[Keyguyperson]

Well I've changed my entire storyline three times, but I've finally settled on something I like!

[Gwynbleidd]

@Keyguyperson

If it doesn't go over the PM word limit, you have failed us all!

[c3p-0h]

i've never entered any sort of contest like this before so please be gentle lol >.<

[Ellri]

@c3p-0h: nevah!

On a more serious note... When we review, we don't try for overly gentle or overly harsh. We go for fair. In general, people here review based on the lingual quality. If a text is rife with terrible grammar or misspellings, then that might be focused on. But the story itself is what matters in our eyes. We notice such errors, but we don't like nitpicking on them.

[c3p-0h]

yeah, i've been perusing old contests in the subforum and i can see that. i just have a case of newbie nerves i think haha

[RomanAria]

@c3p-0h We don't bite! (Too hard, that is!)

[Ellri]

that's because we don't actually need to spread our rabies and other fun conditions. but you didn't hear that from us. and don't tell @RomanAria you learned about it, @c3p-0h.

[RomanAria]

*whistles innocently*
*kicks the dead bodies under the couch*

Yeah, we're totally cool in here. All sugar and spice and everything nice.

[Ellri]

The meat locker secondary entrance also happens to be under the couch. Keeps the meat from spoiling.

[c3p-0h]

such a lovely introduction

[c3p-0h]

are we allowed to submit a work to multiple bonus categories or is it one per?

[RomanAria]

@c3p-0h Your work can be tailored to as many bonus categories as you want, and you'll be considered for all of them, but at the end you'd only earn the one that your entry most fits. Also, for future reference, if you ping me when you have a question I'll likely see it sooner, as I'm online most of the time but this thread tends to get somewhat buried in my subscriptions.

[Ellri]

Hopefully we'll have time to actually finish up the story this time around. And avoid one of those rushed endings...

[MyCatGinger]

Ah, forgive me for waltzing in here, I don't generally participate in the guild's contests, but the title and image for this one struck a particular chord within me, and I couldn't help myself but to leave a little video here.

Poof!

Good luck to all ye who enter, and may the most emotional best entry win! :)
