This one is a big challenge for the judges, since there's no formal topic per say,except 'short'. I tried to incorporate that feeling of time into mine, but we'll see what happens. :)

*sigh*

Entry from a triple winner... I won't stand a chance.

Awfully defeatist, eh, Salak?

Not exactly filled with optimism in recent times... Long story. Needless to say, even if I can motivate myself to get an entry in, I personally would have very little if any confidence in its ability to stand up to scrutiny...

...it's this lack of selfmotivation that's meant my last... must be at least 5 entries by now, have gone unfinished.

Glad to see such a great turn out for this quicky. :)

Whoa, so many entries already. Questioning myself should I fiddle with that idea in my head. This time it's "really a story" ;)

Oh, your commercial story would be perfect, Jophry. ::gives a tongue-in-cheek wink:: It would be "Peachy." ::grins::

It certainly is great to see some new and returning faces back in Challenge.:)

Depends what sort of references... If it's saying that "this happened on Romulus a few years ago" then I'd have thought it should be fine. If it's "I was on Cpt Rikers security detail that fought Remans on the Enterprise"... then it's questionable.

but I was there and we won too.,,(well sorta) and Captain Riker said I did good. on the other side.., I am thinking that saying that something like Salak was seeking infiniti would be a little bit of power simming right. but then the more inventive the better just leave the uninvented uninvented if that makes sense?

I could write this Challenge tonight and just might.

was I on the wrong page again damit jim try to keep up.,,

on second thought at this rate I best not enter anything till I sleep again.,, so I might make it before the dead line., but it will be close.,

Deadline's Sunday, right?

Not tonight, but if anyone sees me online from tomorrow afternoon (UK time), do feel free to prod me to make sure I'm at least thinking about it. I've got a seminar tomorrow lunchtime so some time after that. Today's just hectic.

I guess you don't know what you have until it's gone, eh? :)

Maybe we should pave paradise and put up a parking lot?

I'd rather not need to pay a dollar to see all the trees in a tree museum...

Posted

That's a dollar and a half, actually, Sal. But I agree. Let's put away the DDT. I don't care about spots on my apples; leave me the birds and the bees.

Hey, I've not heard the song in a while, not owning a copy of it :(

The clocks on this side of the pond went back last night; does that mean we get an extra hour before the deadline? :)

Ahem... GMT-7 cos you're still observing Daylight Savings, surely?

Posted

It's still considered GMT-8, in or out of daylight savings :P
