Wolfbot begins kill sequence!

Welcome, all
-
With so many creative writers among us here at SB118, a low turn out is very disappointing. What can I do to help Admiral?
Well, the contest continues until midnight on the 23rd. Spread the word?

No sims were disqualified due to low rating. This round of voting only qualifies one sim to be part of the final round of voting for the title of "Top Sim, 2008."
Links:
REMEMBER: This is NOT a popularity contest. Vote based on MERIT, not the fact that someone is your crewmate. Any crews found "stuffing the ballots" or ratings, will be disqualified PERMANENTLY - yes, that means the whole crew.
-
Due to a tie, "Ritar, Fourth of the Father - Entertain the End" by Lily Ventu and "No one can hurt you" by Hugh Barnes will move into the run-off phase.

For more information, including the rules and contest calendar, please see the Top Sims Contest website.
*Note* If you're submitting a sim, please use the name of the author's primary character -- not the "NPC" name, if applicable.
Important Dates:
- Round 15 Submission period opens: Mo 08-18
- Round 15 Submission period closes: Su 08-31
- Round 15 Voting period opens: Mo 09-01
- Round 15 Voting period closes: Su 09-14
Procedure:
1. Submit sims (from your ship, or another ship -- all sims welcome, member or staff)
2. Rate sims you see in this forum
3. Vote on sims submitted in the last round
Notes:
- Please find a balance between "too much" and "too little" on the submission end of this contest. Don't submit every post from your crew. But I DO encourage everyone to submit at least one post to the contest whenever they can. Last week there were approximately 300 sims in the fleet - an average of 40 a day. I would expect no more than five or six a day to be considered "Top Sim" contest worthy.
- REMEMBER: This is NOT a popularity contest. We welcome submissions of your crewmate's sims, but ALL sims should be rated based on their MERIT, and NOT the fact that someone is your crewmate. Any crews found "stuffing the ballots" or ratings, will be disqualified PERMANENTLY - yes, that means the whole crew.
- Want your crewmates to win more? Nominate only the best sims, and encourage higher quality sims!

Shockingly low turnout!
-
Welcome back!
-
Just a quick note: I will not be allowing tie votes anymore. If a vote ends in a tie, there will be a run-off in the next round. If we allow ties each round, we're going to end up with an even more unwieldy number of sims to vote-on in the final rounds.

Challenge: "The Puer Aeternus (Latin for "eternal boy", e.g.- Peter Pan)" - This round is similar to last year, with the "Freudian archetypes" theme. I know that people sometimes have trouble with these, but remember: it's not called a challenge for nuthin'! Stretch yourself and try and write something you wouldn't normally, because doing so will make you a more flexible and creative bard!
Good Luck!
