And again, not that this is a contest or anything, but I can beat you:

I accidentally voted twice on it so my votes cancelled each other out.

Oh, that was far from my worst in terms of being ignored, LOL. So I see we have that in common, at least... *hugs*

Yes, I just listened to your poem. For a minute, I thought it was me. So we have more than that in common.

By the way, Lin, I meant to tell you, I LOVE your description for your How-To piece. "It's a virtual world: come swing from a cyber star." Pure genius!

Passing by and it needed a *bump*.

After this contest can we have a debate about these rather contrived contests. No-one seems to be enjoying the experience.

 

[Munachi]

ah but it gives us something to talk about...

 

[Selena_Kitt]

Bah - she didn't even use exactly 50 words in her comment. :emoticon:

LOL!!!! Now there's a challenge

The 50 Word Story Contest Begins!

It seemed very strange, passing through on another night of wandering. She paused to ask if there was an answer out there, left with the overwhelming sense of silence. Bitterly she posted her deep thoughts of the moment and left them there for any who might happen by to read.

New entry from Sex&Death is up today.

I thought entries had finished?

I'm celebrating a vote
First one in at least a week.

In theory this should be the last one.


Celebrating with ya!


Now we need a sweep. I had 5 or 6 new votes and a plunge in score, lol. My poem got a 1 on it's 5th vote too.

LOL!!!! Now there's a challenge

I found no difficulty in crafting a fifty word response for Ogg's story, and I was somewhat amazed that a writer of your ability had not done so as well. Of course, I cheated - having started my Lit career in the fifty-word thread on the sexual role playing forum.

I would like to apologise to any authors who received votes, comments and reads from me last night. My new story was trolled from an H into obscurity in 2 hours and I became somewhat angry.

I do not think I intentionally low-voted any stories, but perhaps my comments were more brutal than necessary.

New entry from Sex&Death is up today.

Wow, just in time.

Wow, just in time.

Just under the wire... he loves to live dangerously, what can I say?

I've just RCVed S&D's How To. Great stuff.

That movie quote made me laugh so hard I cried. I wasn't expecting it.

I'm here to chew bubblegum and kick ass—and I'm all out of bubblegum.

*snort* great line

Thanks Aurora...I know he's going to have a hard time getting enough votes to qualify by the 12th!

We'll see about that.

Thank you to all those who RCVed my 50-word How To.

Unfortunately it is still just short of the minimum 25 votes required to be a valid entry and that is before the next sweep reduces the votes further.

A few votes would be appreciated please. I am visiting everyone else's entry in the next couple of days to R&V but probably not C.
