Yes, I'm afraid yours was one of three that didn't make the short list for length. It doesn't mean it wasn't good (all of them were) and your efforts are sincerely appreciated.

Nid, was mine one of the ones that didn't make it due to length? I only ask because I spent a good few hours writing it and was really optimistic it would be entered.

Im not a huge fan of poetry...

Im really a believer that poetry shouldnt rhym, that it should be heart felt and from the soul, rather than what nursery schools preach.

Just seems...simplistic? :rolleyes:

I think they are all a good read.They all did a great job.
I for one really thought/hoped there would be more response to this from the community but the fact that this thread is only 3 pages long -half of it beeing offtopic- surprises a lot.

I was thinking the same, and the number of votes is pathetic, yet look at all the poll votes on the saturn issue.

Mock on the community.

they want events, they dont take part..pfft

The voting thread has been moved back into an accessible part of the forum. I've also added a few days to the length of the poll to cope with the downtime and NC2 launch disruption.

N

/edit - anyone is free to write a story and post it in the RP forum at any time. I agree that the longer stories were just as high quality as the other submissions and would love to see them get the attention they deserve. :)

People allways want to be entertained.

But will do anything to get out of doing it themselves.

Also remember that 90% of the community is actively anti rp.

Ok, could you please move the stories into an accessible part of the forum, too? I get an error that I'm not allowed to view it.

Whenever I try an access the Stories and Artwork link I get:
--
zii, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Any clues?
