RE: Writer With the Force-- A Survivor Style Challenge--Now Voting for Challenge Seven!!
|
You all can always send me votes after the deadline, especially if it is only a little bit after. I set the vote deadline to around the time when I think I will be able to be on to tally them, sometimes (like today) I miss judge when that will be and I get on later. I'll count any votes that are in the PM box before I finish tallying! 
We only had 2 voters this time (  ) but remember when you see funky numberss that some of the writers started out this round with a -1 for not getting them in at the original deadline.
Challenge Seven Writer Reveal
Entry #1 Five Times Qui-Gon Wondered What in the World Dooku Was Thinking[ by Persephone_Kore
Entry # 2 The Five Times Yoda Shrunk by LordNyax113
Entry # 3 Han Solo and the Princess by LASOS
Entry # 4 The Five Times Ben was Kissed by ZaraValinor
Entry # 5 The Five Times my Father Has Cried by Jedimaster_JainaSolo
Challenge Seven Winner
The winner of immunity for the second week in a row with a score of +1 is Jedimaster_JainaSolo! 
Congratulations! You have immunity for challenge eight, but you must still submit a story!
One With the Force
For the first time, immunity has saved an author from becoming OWTF. Persephone_Kore had a score of -2, which was the lowest score, but she won immunity last week and is saved. So now, we go to the second lowest score for this challenge.
With a score of +1/-2 for a total challenge score of -1, I'm sorry LordNyax113, you have become One With the Force.
I hope you had fun and that you will join us again next round!
Comments will be sent tomorrow as I am very tired!
Challenge eight will also be posted tomorrow!

The Final Five!
Congratulations to those of you who have made it this far!  There are only three challenges left, this one, challenge nine and then the final challenge with the remaining three, so now is the time to bring out the big blasters!  And I'm warning you now... things are going to get harder!  (In fact I feel kinda mean!  )
Challenge Eight: A Picture is worth a thousand words... literally!
For this challenge you are to find a picture... it doesn't necessarily have to be SW related, it could be a sun set or it could be a vase, I don't really care what the picture is of, but you have to write a story somehow based around it in exactly 1,000 words. You are more than welcome to substitute actors or people for known SW characters and write about them (such as a wedding picture from a website and you think they look like Jainia and Jag), or for those of you who are particularly talented with drawing and want to make your own picture, that would be awesome (but if you aren't, I'm not going to hold it against you, I can't draw a stick man)! All I want is a picture and a thousand words about it!
Deadlines, Reminders and Notes PLEASE READ THEM!!
~The Deadline for this challenge is 11:59 Sunday, September 14th
~Voting will end 5pm Thursday September 18th
~Word Limit is exactly 1,000 words and I will use THIS word counter... not MS Word. If you go over, I will cut you off, if you go under, you get -1 added to your score for this challenge. (I told you it was going to get harder!  )
~Please send me a link to your picture so I can post it with your story. No mark up codes are necessary, just a link!
~I think you all know by now, but in order for me to get your mark up codes in correctly, please send them in broken format {i]this is italics[/i]
~ Please also remember to send the following info...
Title:
Characters/Pairings:
Era: (Before, Saga, Beyond)
Spoilers: (if applicable)
Summary: (optional)
Good Luck and Have fun!!  
FYI I still haven't sent comments, sorry! I hope to get to them soon!

But I love the challenge!

I can engage in lightsaber duels with my 5 year-old nephew while playing catch with my 2 year-old nephew.
Wearing stilettos.
Take that, Luke Skywalker.

You know, this is harder than I thought.
Not the writing but finding a decent picture to write to...

I can't photoshop (because I'm too stupid to understand the program) and I can't draw.  Leaves me with looking for a pic.
I still haven't found one, by the way.
But I will.

You can absolutely photoshop something!!
Any picture works, no matter how it was made or what it is of... the visual is what is really important!
Well, and the 1,000 words of course!
I have faith in you, Ceillean! Don't think about it too hard!!
But just in case you all didn't realize, whoever wins immunity for this challenge automatically makes it to the final challenge!

I found a picture! I just sent in my 1000 words.
Exactly 1000, so yay for me.
Wasn't as hard or complicated as I thought.

Mine's in! Now I'm left wondering how word counters can be like 50 words off...?
