    Things I rejected and why:
    Sith Jar Jar Binks from Pretty Damn Sweet - difficult to incorporate into NSW
    Getting tackled by Mace Windu from I, Janitor - difficult to incorporate into NSW
    "If he's going to be the pretty, wholesome one and I'm going to be the trashy, rebellious one, where does that leave you?" from The Pirate and the Panties - that's just cruel, and I like our mods
    "At midnight, blood is black, not red." from To Reign in Hell - actually I still like that one a lot but didn't want to overpopulate the challenge quotes with BLOOD

    What a unique challenge idea, I love it! :D

    May I please add Tier 2, # 2 to my pile of prompts that will never* be written?

    *there's a new Springsteen album coming out soon so that might be good for a day or two of inspiration, who knows
    :p

    It's been way too long since I wrote fanfic. This maybe might jumpstart the muse. Tier 3, #1, please. [face_worried]

    Look--I know better than to take on another prompt I won't write, but I'm also in the mood for not caring about that.

    I would like the last prompt standing in Tier Two, #1.

    (Yes, I went for this over the more reasonable Tier One because I wanted a picture. No other excuse.)

    Ooh, yay! @jcgoble3 @Pandora what a delight to see you both in on the fun! Here you go…

    Jcgoble, here is tier 3, no. 1 for you:
    Trope: Preserve Your Gays
    Words: Ecdysis, Taxes, Slipcover
    Random story element: Budget cuts
    Line of dialogue: "I look like a corpse in this."
    Scenery element: Geothermal spring
    New Mod Element: Lake
    Old Mod Element: Mitten
    Picture:
    [​IMG]

    And Pandora, here’s tier 2, no. 1 for you (and I totally understand about wanting a picture):
    Trope: Moment Killer
    Words: Aversion, Caustic, Threshold
    Dialogue: "Or maybe it was just my imagination."
    Random Story Element: Chronically Late
    Picture:
    [​IMG]

    Enjoy, you two! [face_dancing]

    And now it looks like we have only two prompts remaining: Tier 1 no. 2 and Tier 3 no. 4. But don’t worry—we are in the process of putting together a few more in response to popular demand, so stay tuned! ;)

    Let's see here, gut reaction:
    • Trope: Never heard of it and I have literally no clue what to do with it. [face_laugh]
    • Words: Taxes is easy but that first one is a word I've never heard either.
    • Story element: Kinda fits with taxes, nice. ;)
    • Dialogue: Ooh, there's a thousand ways to use that! :D
    • Scenery: We're definitely into "random" territory here. :p
    • New Mod: I suppose it relates somewhat to the scenery?
    • Old Mod: I hate winter so I guess I'll subject my characters to it. If I have to suffer, they do too. [face_devil]
    • Picture: I'm... not quite sure what those are?

    @jcgoble3 as someone who helped come up with these, I smiled at your first reactions! :) To quickly answer your question about the picture, those are meant to be escargots, or edible snails of a fancy variety.

    @JediMaster_Jen great to have you on board! Tier 3 no. 4 is yours, and it is:
    • Trope: As You Know
    • Words: Acoustic, Profane, Crisp
    • Dialogue: "I would only say that there is something agreeable to be found in a happy ending after so much struggle."
    • Random Story Element: A bad feeling
    • Random Scenery Element: Cloudy with a chance of meatballs
    • New Mod Random Element: Library
    • Old Mod Random Element:
      [​IMG]
    • Picture:
      [​IMG]

    Have a great time with these! :cool:

    And now there’s just one left, at least until we add more… any takers for tier 1, no. 2? :D

    We are currently making more prompts for Tier 3 (and all of these tiers :p). Would you mind waiting a day or so for us to finish putting prompts together? If not, we have one prompt left in Tier 1 as of right now. :D


    In the meantime, folks, while we pair more prompts together, there are still a few options left for challenging the mods, if you would like to join in on the second aspect of the challenge? [face_batting] [face_mischief]

    All right, folks! We have officially added new sign-up spots for every tier! So, @earlybird-obi-wan, which number would you like for Tier 3? :D

    Also, don't forget to sign up to challenge your mods! The suggestions we have look fantastic so far. Would anyone else like to contribute? Even if it's just one element, don't be shy! [face_batting]

    (I'm quietly stewing in disappointment with myself that I forgot I had the option of saddling someone with the word "exsanguinate.")

    You may still get your chance when we open up the option for repeat submissions. [face_mischief] [face_whistling]

    *even so: side-eyes exsanguinate* o_O :p

    You hear that, everyone? It's up to you to save your mods from exsanguinate and vivisection! [face_batting] [face_worried] (Unless you're feeling particularly vengeful about your own prompts, in which case, we understand. :p)
