    Geez, if it weren't for PSATs, I'd sooo try this... Are you guys going to do this again sometime in the summer? It seems like so much fun!

    If this works out well there's a good possibility we'll do it again some time. Maybe in a different time period, though.

    Yeah. I know that between craziness at school, craziness in the musicale I'm in, craziness with soccer, and craziness with other RL things, I'd never have time to do this, especially with all the other writing projects I'm working on. In addition, a different time period fits me better, since I'm not that good with The Saga era...

    Eep! I just realized that it was supposed to be in The Saga.

    Ugh, well, I guess I can't take part in this then cuz what I have done is defintely in Beyond the Saga. Ugh. Oh well, maybe next time.

    Because someone decided to "edit" my last story, and put stars in place of the word "c.o.c.k.y", I am withdrawing my submission to this story. If we are dealing with children that giggle at legitimate, non-smutty words, and you feel the need to remove these legitimate words, I no longer will be writing stories and posting on this site.

    Delete my submission, please.

    That's the new profanity filter at work.


    Zerosleep, at the behest of IGN, has now implemented a filter to catch and star out profanity.

    We're in the early test phase of this and there are going to be such hassles until the filter can be tweaked and fine tuned.

    I've already expressed concerns over this in the MS (it'd be a shame if Wedge Antilles fans can't write about him sitting in the cockpit of his fighter anymore) and hopefully there will be improvement.

    *takes a deep, calming breath and decides to stop seething.* Now I will go watch the Michigan/Minnesota game, and hope it doesn't get me upset all over again. Go Blue! :D

    hehe. Back after watching Michigan WIN! :p

    What about c-ocksure? - A very certain person?

    or c-ocktail? - a Drink?

    c-ockatoo? - A bird?

    c-ock - a rooster?

    c-ocker spaniel? A dog?

    c-ockney? - A Londoner?

    c-ockboat? A small boat?

    c-ockroach? A bug?

    c-ockle? An edible shellfish? or a stove?

    c-ocked ones head? Tilted?

    c-ock a weapon? Arm a gun?

    This rule is incredibly lame.

    Is this part of the challenge, too? :p

    Who cares about the filtering, the least they can make sure is that we get topic notification on time. :D I know some people don't use it, but I like seeing my Inbox filled with important stuff. ;)

    I was all fired up on an ending, then my muse killed it. :p So now it's only about 13 hundred words instead of the 25 hundred my muse wanted originally.

    CURSE YOU MUSE!!! :p


    Eh', at least it's sent in. :D

    I'm closing in on finishing mine. Out of curiosity, how long are the beginnings that everyone else submitted? Because mine's probably not going to be all that long...

    That's good to know ;)

    Now, one other question. Should we give titles to these? Because I have a title I really want to give to mine ;)

    Most authors have given their submissions a title.


    And there has been a wide array of submission lengths. A couple have been quite long, a few quite short, but most somewhere in the middle. :)
