WTE_OzWolf has done it again, winning with over 60% in the second contest!!!

Civman2000: I suggest you try to convince MarkG that the prize for the contest be brought back. Not only would that increase the amount of stories we see here, but also add a little something to the contest itself.

You are doing a fine job of running this, however.

Well, I've noticed that this forum isnt actually moderated by anyone...a few times I've tried to get some of the story contest stuff to be sticky threads but I've just been ignored....

You should go to the Apolyton/Community forum and create a thread specifically for asking either Ming or Mark to come back here and at least create the stickys that you need.
That seems to be one of the place that they visit regularly. Unlike here.
(edit) Actually, i'll do it.

thanks for doing so...try to get mark though, ming doesnt like me very much (he's the king of favortism)...

[civman2000]

cbraund now has 2 second places (although one was a tie) but will he ever get first?

[Metaliturtle]

probably, my humor gets stale quickly, although I could say Orgies for all and get a cheer just about anywhere

[civman2000]

congratulations rotten!

[Metaliturtle]

Great job man

[civman2000]
