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

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...

Hey, all!

Get those stories and illustrations in for Q4!

Joni asked me to do a little promo to encourage people to enter, so here goes...

Swamp me - I dare you! Tweet and Share to your heart's content!

Hey, all! Wow! Thank you for all of the congrats and good wishes! I am super excited about signing on as first reader, and I have to say that this was something I never even imagined back when I first heard about the contest in high school. Sorry it's taken me so long to post, but I've been swamped ...

MODERATOR HAT ON Hey, all, This section of the forum is for RESULTS ONLY. Many forumites subscribe to the threads in this sub-forum to get notifications when results come out, and those people would rather not see a slew of notifications that have nothing to do with results. For the sake of this pa...

Yup, sort of the same stuff the rest of the board was facing re: Q2 results.

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.

Me, too. I always do a read-aloud as part of the final polish.

They're back for me this morning, too. Arrrgh! I've alerted the right people.

Thomas - gorgeous covers!

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,

Kary

So I have a PM but it's just not readable. The "window" it appears in is tiny with no ability to scroll down. Or reply to it. Or anything. wotf017 Click the Reply button. You'll be able to read the original either as a quoted section, or in the history. About the PHP probs in general - we...

I'll be at Sasquan.

Results only, please. Good luck, everyone!

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 to honupueo and anyone else I missed. And Grats on the HM, honu!

Welcome, Nicholas! Back to back HMs, eh? Nicely done!

Hey, folks - remember that the Results section is for results only.

Congrats, commiserations, questions and other chatter belong down in the Jibber Jabber threads.

Hi, Stryker, and welcome!

Welcome to Tristi, Jessica and Dewayne!

There's anti-twich cream behind the bar next to the +5 Tequila of Oblivion. Don't overdo it with the cream. There may be... side effects.

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...

May I join?

Aye. Welcome aboard!

I'm not.

I'll be in the Pity Party Boat Filled With Whining Wankers.

I'm Dan, and I'm the 1st place winner of Q3. I lurked here for a little bit, mainly to finds answers to my questions in regards to the contest (side note: the link to Dave's daily kicks was a lifesaver). I figured I'd join to connect with the other winners and to offer some support to the Q4 contes...

Congrats and welcome! All these first-timers...enough to makes some of us slow learners just a little bit jealous. wotf011 Yeah, so if someone's bed gets sort of accidentally short-sheeted at the workshop, it's all meant in the friendliest possible way. Not that I would ever do such a thing. wotf01...
