Final Countdown

You still have about 16:27 left until the deadline.

(That's approximately sixteen (16) hours and twenty-seven (27) minutes. Hopefully that is clear enough for everyone to understand, and posting it here makes it accessible to the effort-impaired.)

I find it really confusing.

In fact, I think I need you to:

1. Write my entry for me;

2. Buy me a computer;

3. Post the entry for me.

Because I am that fucking special ...

I've never doubted it.

About 2:12 left now!

Anyone who can't write a story in in time for the deadline doesn't understand the mathematics of productivity.

ZING!

Seriously — Kevin should give this one a shot! Not only could he easily write three entries in the time left, but one of them would probably win.

Nope, too late, by 14 minutes...

Current UTC (or GMT/Zulu)-time used: Tuesday, 1 March 2011, 00:13:43

(I'll check the mail & PMs again in a little while to see if there were any more submissions, but this is probably it.)

Now what happens? I wish someone would post some rules or something around here so a fellow would know what to expect...

I don't know. I figured that Talos would just send them down the Memory Hole and that would be that.

Talos is currently refitting himself with some buzzsaw and blenderizer attachments.

A DAY OF RECKONING IS COMING...

Read the entries, D, choose which you like best and be patient for a week or so.

I'll log in later from my iPad and spell shitefully, too.

It takes practically no effort whatsoever!

SandChigger · Post by **SandChigger** » 01 Mar 2011 07:08

What, the logging in or the spelling shitefully?

(I've logged in here and over on T(A)U using it quite a bit now. If you see me lurking but not posting anything, that's probably why. I got a dock-keyboard thingy with it, but haven't used it yet.)

I get the feeling SR wants to wring my neck when I get lazy and neglect to proof whatever my iPad makes me type.

Just say you're posting from your phone. That one seems to have gained some currency.

You think that matters to Sand Rider?

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 26 Mar 2011 03:46

you should see some of the text-messages I send; it takes four or five just
to get to the point of what I was texting you about ... somewhere along the way,
my thumbs picked up the rhythm; I am a goddamn amazingly fast typist, and
once I got a handle on the way the buttons were laid out, I really got good ...

I'd like to wring your neck, but I seriously doubt I could get both hands around it ...

Get both hands around it? Fuck. You couldn't reach it little man!

I can't believe we're not allowed to vote for #5...

:beat dead horse:

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 26 Mar 2011 18:31

I was going to say something about a step ladder,
or having someone hold the barstool steady while I climbed up there ...

I know! Impeach Talos NOW!

(Well, anyway, the story & author did get a special mention.

)

To be honest, i've been looking for an excuse to use that smiley.

Talos functioned as well as anyone, moronic arrogance coupled with willfull stupidity is never an easy thing to deal with.

I just had a thought, you don't think the whole thing could've been performed as a parody of kja do you? F*n brilliant if it was but they should've let someone know they were going to exceed the contest parameters.

Yeah, machines can be like that

SandChigger · Post by **SandChigger** » 27 Mar 2011 10:51

What was it Alia said about machines again?

Lundse! Where's Lundse when you need him?!
