  • Story Contest Round 15: Nominations

    Please feel free to nominate away!

    Remember you CAN nominate or second your own story.
    But it MUST be finished. (we are working on developing that rule, however, so hold tight- further details on that rule will be shown later in the thread)

    *Remember the reward is a discount at the Apolyton Store!

    *Stories which are seconded will be bolded; and a story must be seconded to move into the Semifinals.

    So- Let the Stories begin!

    Ummm, I haven't read any finished stories outside the previous contest yet, but I am curious what are those two? Your nominations or what? The one by scratch, ta least is pretty old. And besides, IIRC he didn't want to participate in any contests, is that still so?

            I would like to nominate the next masterpiece by Chingis Khan, The Spearman. Just be sure to sit tight in a chair, when reading it, or you'll fall off laughing

                Those were carryovers from the last contest. That's part of the old rules and de facto they are part of the new rules.

                I'll try to find the links to the stories.

                ...Give me time...

                Thanks for the continued interest!

                  Don't put any of my stories in a vote. That includes the devil story you have listed above.
                  Here is an interesting scenario to check out. The Vietnam war is cool.

                              Postmortem is gonna win. Well, it ought to. But then my own story ought to, but it isn't even close to finished, so...
