Hi! Basically I'm reading every single post (which can take quite a while, especiallin with the game threads) and then I enter the number of posts everyone made in a document I'm using to track that stuff. Of course, it's a little more complicated since I also have to keep track of new threads, some bonus criteria, and the like but that's pretty much it.

Yeah, those old ROM threads are a bit of a mess. ROM 1 had some serious inconsistency problems (which I'm fixing in the novel) since we were just starting out. ROM 2 isn't that bad except that time towards the end where Shauni and Jeff got carried away with plot twists. 3 was fine except that we spent like half the pages OOC arguing with Pokchu...

Hi!

Shauni machinegunning plot twists doesn't strike me as odd for some reason. Also we need to get more fights started!

Jambo! It's probably for a shot at winning the contest.This thing can wake the dead, man. XD
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Hi! Nice to see you Mute.

Hmm... I think the posts will be a lot easier to score if I just try to do it more times a day for shorter periods of time instead of one or two really long periods.

Salve! It'd also help if the moderators helped, but then Silver would be out of the contest and he's first place (so I heard)... Maybe next time, the winner(s) could help tally since they already won once.

Jambo! I think the main problem is that a new tally-er wouldn't know which posts have been counted and which ones haven't... maybe next time - should there be a next time - we could divide the forums up amongst the mods. Like, Shauni would be responsible for counting everything in the Tv, Comics, Books, and Games section, Simeon would count everything in the roleplaying section... well, it was an idea.

Hi.

And that's not a bad idea really. It could work out, though afew areas the mod would have nothing to do as some don't get posted in as much.


And man my feet are killing me. I probably walked a good 5 miles today after work. A heavy drink is helping the feet now :)

Hi! I'm posting from school today since I'm here for a while doing my internship and ran out of things to work on. Plus this morning was kinda hectic so I didn't have time to get on.

Oh yeah, if no one noticed, the next KotF bonus challenge is up in the Forums section.

Hi.

I've noticed that the posting limits have been put back. Now I have to save my works if I want to post and get that message.

Hi! The limit is only like 15 seconds. It's really just there to slow down spammers and prevent double posts.
