RPGC #2 -- POWER

[Gwynbleidd]

Wait. There is a character count limitation?

EDIT:

OH! The PM limit. Never mind everyone. Move along, nothing to see here.

Except me still thinking about what to write.

[Ellri]

Don't be so sure about that, @ScienMalefica... Quality trumps quantity any day in our eyes. We couldn't care less whether that piece we're working on ends up high or low in the end. Winning would merely be a bonus.

Also (though it certainly hasn't been demonstrated yet), longer entries run the risk of being too much work for readers/reviewers/voters, and you can miss some stuff that way. Staff has you covered for feedback regardless, but it's something to think about if you're looking for maximum feedback. At the end of the day, what matters is you write what you're comfortable with, confidently. Do that and you'll do just fine (and more importantly, you'll set yourself up nicely to learn and grow from feedback).

[Ellri]

That is very true. If you want to write really long, you need to have it really engaging to make people not stop reading halfway out of boredom.

[Keyguyperson]

Man, I'm spending too much time deciding what to name famous philosophers instead of actually writing. Guess I'll be pulling an all-nighter sometime between now and the 17th.

[mdk]

Unrelated, but suddenly I really wish someone had used this for #1.

[Ellri]

Looks like we're ending up doing a complete rewrite of the whole text. Probably for the best, as the original intro wasn't too good.

[ScienMalefica]

I just figured people who spent the time to have a longer one would have also spent the time to thoroughly proofread while mine was the rushed work on 2 and a half hours.

@Ellri

As for that yeah but I just get embarrassed by being surrounded by work much better than ours.

[Ellri]

heh, @ScienMalefica. Don't worry about it. We've no idea yet how ours will end up, but it'll be a long read. Hopefully worth reading, though.

[Keyguyperson]

Damn, I just realized that I could have done a much better story about power for this. Oh well, that'll just have to wait.

Until February.

[RomanAria]

Why until February, @Keyguyperson?

[Keyguyperson]

@RomanAria

Because if there's a time to write it, it would be in February.

[Ellri]

That sounds logical. Too bad we lack the facts to understand why.

[Keyguyperson]

That sounds logical. Too bad we lack the facts to understand why.

@Ellri

Did you expect me to give anything but useless hints?

The reason is that Valentine's day is in February.

[Ellri]

we didn't really, no.

[Rhymer]

Gonna give this a go. Is there a word limit/minimum? I looked but couldn't find one.

[RomanAria]

@Rhymer Nope, no minimum, nor maximum. Write however little or however much you want.

[KaiserAuto]

Hm, I think I could vent my emotion on this.

[Darcs]

@KaiserAuto Must be some powerful emotions.

ayyy lmao
