Attached to his phone,
If the thing doesn't ring he might chuck it.

Re: Discussion: Q4 Volume 35
Hey, all! This was a hard, hard quarter, with lots of really good entries. Sometimes Joni sends out results in waves, and sometimes it's one big deluge all at the end. If she goes for waves, they could start anytime. If she waits, it might be the third or fourth week of November before we hear anyth...

We haven't forgotten about the registration problem. We haven't been given the necessary tools & access to fix it yet. We'll keep on it.

Hey, all, It looks like some of the issues have been fixed. Please check your PM screens to see if they look right, and tell me if anyone still sees those PHP error codes against the blue background on the upper left corner of the screen. There are still some problems that the mods can see, but it l...

Hi, all,
We've reported this again, and this time I think the message took. ;) Hopefully they'll get it all sorted out in the next week or so.
Cheers,

Hi, MetalOne, and welcome! The system closes at midnight PST when the deadline for each quarter ends, then it comes back up a few days later to open for the next quarter. In this case, Q1 of Volume 32 closed at midnight on Dec. 31. I'd expect the system to be back up on Monday to start taking entrie...

Welcome Vernon and Starkiller! And if I've missed anyone, welcome to any I've missed. Things are a bit quiet at present. Mostly folks are hiding (ahem, twitching ) in their rejection-proof shelters until we see more action on Q4. In the meantime, though, bust out your Q1s and get writing. :) Cheers,...

Howdy, all. I'm technically not new here, but just returned after a hiatus. I've been really lazy about writing lately, so I've decided to enter next quarter for the first time (and every quarter after that), just to give myself a kick in the pants to write more (and finish more!). I don't expect t...
