Dear gods, to think I've already used my pass . . .
BTW - a pox on everyone who puts the required words in boldface.

Good, finally more words allowed! The last challenge brought me a plot bunny for a darned epic, and I had to squeeze it into 1000 words or under!

RE: Writer With the Force-- A Survivor style challenge -- Challenge Three Due tomorrow night!

Just a reminder Challenge Three is due Monday (tomorrow!!) by 11:59pm!!
I'd like to let you all know that I may not be able to get the entries up until Wednesday. I have clinicals Tues. and Wed. that are 75 miles away (one way) and have to be there each day from 6:45 am to 7pm so I'll probably be staying in a motel Tues. night so I'm not driving completely exausted (and since gas is $4.10 a gallon!  ) I'll be taking my laptop with me and I hope the hotel I'm staying at will have WiFi, but I don't know.
I'm sorry to do that, I didn't know this was going to happen. I thought I would only be there one day, but I've been promised this is the last time my schedule will change!

No need to apologize. You're doing a great job running this. Good luck on your clinicals.

Thank you so much Alexis!

Apparently, my entire job description can be boiled down to this... CO2 + H2O <--> H2CO3 <--> HCO3 + H Then why have I been in school so long??   Hoping for baby Isabella. May you be stong and fight hard!

I second that. No need to worry, no need to apologize.
Good luck!

RE: Writer With the Force-- A Survivor style challenge -- Challenge Three Entries Posted 6/25!

Challenge Three Voting!
Thanks everyone for your patience with my crazy schedule! I got to come home early today  so I got the entries up earlier than I thought I would!
But since I had to push getting them up back from the original date I intended, I've extended the voting until 12 noon on Sunday June 28th!
Passes Requested:
Jedimaster_JainaSolo
Persophone_Kore
The usual voting reminders:
1. Please read all entries before voting. You can find links to the other era threads below!
2. Do NOT vote positive or negative because you love/hate those characters or pairing, you should be voting on how well the story follows the prompt, characterization, creativity etc., not for the characters themselves.
3. Send a PM with your votes and a reason, please.
Example: I vote for [story number/name here] as the best story because it used the prompt very creatively.
I vote for [story number/name here] as the writer to become one with the Force because I felt the characterization was not accurate.
4. If you beta for one of the writers, please don't vote in either direction for that writer as you know which story is theirs and that completely defeats the purpose of the anonymity. I have no way of checking so we are on the honor system!
5.No voting more than once by using socks!

Oh my, it's SUNDAY! But it's the 29th not the 28th, so I don't know if I'm too late to vote since you said Sunday the 28th.
I finally read all the entries, and I'm confuddled as to which ones to vote for/against. They are all so well written! I'm guessing it's gonna be this way until the end of the challenge.

I forgot to vote. 
Somehow I thought the votes had to be in by monday.
Idiot me. *sighes*
EDIT: I still have time.
I have the feeling it's getting increasingly harder to vote. These entries were so good!
I laughed a lot, too.

Sorry about the confusion on the date... it was today at noon! That is what I get for trying to figure out a date in my head instead of looking at a calender! 
We didn't have very many people vote this time... only three people!  I know it is getting hard, all of the entries are very good, but VOTE anyway! 
We had a tie this time in both places... both winners get immunity, but unfortunately someone still has to become One with the Force and we had to go to total game scores to find that person. I did quadruple check the votes and total scores this time as to not make the same fiasco as the last challenge! 
The next challenge will be up later on today!

Congratulations, BaronCoop and ZaraValinor.
I'm not too upset on becoming one with the Force in this, 'cause everyone's entries were superb. Great job, everyone.

No need for tears. Like I said, to be voted off when every other story was so solid, is not a great dishonor.
