Winter Holiday Support Thread

It is only 20 minutes to November 10 by Greenwich Mean Time.

I have three part written entries and not one complete story. The one that is closest to completion probably needs another half-a-dozen A4 pages and then editing.

I'm leaving them all for tonight and will try again tomorrow morning.

Good Luck Og

Good Luck Og

Thank you. :heart:

Another reason for stopping is that I've had a session with my sports physio today and I hurt.

I think I'll have a medicinal beer and think up some more weird ideas for yet more stories.

Are you having another last place contest for this contest Og? I hope so. I think I got it locked up this contest. If I survive and don't get lynched or burned at the stake first.

I've read the story. Tough catagory but a good story, so I do not think so.

*squeezes right back*

i don't know... Just the setting itself is going to attract more trolls than i'll know what to do with.

Wait till you read mine. My end subject should attract absolutely ALL the trolls form every catagory. Not just a single hard cat but all of them in droves. If they knew where I lived I would pbobly be in trouble.
*hugs*

I have experience with how difficult it is to win og's last place award... I also have experience with writing stories that seem to get the whole world worked up enough to lynch ya.

RF has read mine.. and he didn't like it!!!!! that says somethin about my chances for the tail end charley spot!

Good morning DP!
AH! but mine deals with the dreaded S word and for the holiday's no less. I should keep all of the trolls off of you all for a while. I can pick them up from ALL catagories, not just one set.
 
Last Place Contest

The now traditional Last Place Contest for AH authors will be in place for this competition with the usual rules.

The winner of this award has a special prize this time - a virtual whipping with holly, guaranteed not to draw anything but virtual blood.

Despite the changes to the main contest allowing all previous winners to compete, I am still disqualified from the Last Place contest because I cannot be the judge AND a contestant.

I'm glad your having it again Og
I should have it in a cakewalk the time.
At least I should keep the trolls off the rest of you for a while.
Mine is in, just as soon as they transcribe from .doc it will be up and ready to be flamed to the fullest extent.

It seems to be taking longer than usual to post them... the guidelines said that it would take 72 hours. Submitted mine somewhere around midnight GMT... (Og's time)... I'm not sure what time I'm on... (long story of Indiana's struggle against conformity which seems to be continuing into perpetuity)....

It has garnered 4 views.. which is usually enough to post.. but still pending... think they require more views lately....????

No other stories posted so I guess I just have to chew my nails and wait.

Don't know DP,
Mines in but they have to do the .doc transcription thing so it takes longer. Mine went in about 1215 local (central US).
Mine still has no views, so I can't tell you. New great mystery of lit?

Oh great Ogs, I am going to try for the last place award this time around. So I have selected a field in which I have no experience and I suspect little aptitutde. My holiday entry will be a humor and satire piece and I expect to be a strong challenger for last this time around :)

No such luck, Ms C. Not unless you did one mess of changing from the version I looked over.

still have to suggest that I have a lock on last place... RF.. I did little from the last version you saw.. I'm sure you will attest to my lack of redeaming social value in that story!

Even though you admit to doing little to the last version I saw, exercising your authorial discretion to ignore my sage wisdom, counsel and advice, I'm sure you'll do well, Dream Pilot, honest. :)


You may even need a new AV. May I humbly suggest:
