Fan Fic Contest - Are you the best writer?

[Tornado]

Alright. I hit a few snags but Eslo got a chance to read over what I have so far. First story is near completion and I am going to try to have just a second story that will intersect and complete the tale without a third story.

Unfortunately that is not going to happen this weekend so I am requesting another week extension if everyone is cool with that. Either way I am going to complete the story because I am sucked into it now.

It's all good, but remember that you can only extend your due date twice. I think that's your second extension.

I will be cutting it close but I am hopeful to have my entry ready by tomorrow night.
Eslo is working on the first story and hopefully I can finish the second today and have it to him in time to work on it Sunday.
I am really counting on him to 'jazz it up' a bit as it reads more like a script at this point.

I hit a bit of a snag when I read the Bios of Eldgrim and Finn. I never realized they were from rival Viking clans. So I need to do some tweaking for continuity.

I hate to do this, but you guy are coming up on overdue. Please post your stories/update your progress. You can't let TGRF win, can you!?

I finished and I am waiting for Eslo to do his thing. I can edit myself and post it today or tomorrow if you prefer.
I doubt I can win anyway.

Honestly, I can't finish whatever I started with. The plot is a mess, and character development is nonexistent. Sorry, but I am unable to finish it. Tornado and TGRF can fight it out, though!

-MW, apologetic.

No word from Eslo yet so let me know how you want me to proceed.
I will need a day to self edit or we can wait for Eslo.
I do not want to hold up the process any longer if folks want to proceed.

I came up with a cool twist a little too late and will mention it when I post the entry.
However I think the idea will be implemented into our game at Gen Con.

I had fun with this one, not sure how great it is but it helped on a few different levels.

[TheAverageFan]

I'll leave that decision to your very patient competition, TGRF.

I'm fine with waiting, but keep in mind that if Eslo takes too long it will be hard not to justify TGRF's entry winning by default just for making the deadline.

~TAF, who thinks delayed contests are better than no contests

Does Eslo need to add his part of the story, or is it all there? If it's all there and you just need to edit, I'd say go for it. If he actually still needs to add his part to it, I'd leave it up to you. It's your entry, it probably won't seem the same half completed.
Don't worry, I'm in no particular hurry to win. Er, I mean, to have the judging take place.

It is all written on my end. Eslo just needs to do his thing. Right now it reads more like a script so it needs a little spicing up. I will try to get hold of him and see if he is going to be able to get to it.

[TheAverageFan]

Erm, it's been a week since the last post. I don't suppose you can update your progress thus far?

At this rate, I may have to give TGRF the automatic win soon--although if I do I'll still gladly read your story.

Supposedly Eslo finished it but he has not sent it to me. I will bug him again.
