IC News travels slowly in Mizahar. Fortunately there is a constant stream of news from around campfires, from caravan to caravan and from merchants to merchants. Within this forum lies the best of the best of this talk. Also, within this forum, OOC news from the staff and players can be found. This forum requires all posts to be 'approved' by a Founder before they are displayed. So if you post within, be patient. Your post did display - it simply will not show to everyone until approved as actual 'news'. Please keep all Introductions, Status Updates, and various other discussions in their appropriate forums and leave this area for game news!

Hi Folks.

This is my last weekend off for a while and the weather is abysmal in the PNW. It's pouring buckets and is holding steady at 53 degrees F... it might hit 60 degrees F today but I doubt it. So I thought I'd hold a quick weekend challenge for anyone that's interested. I'll be awarding a prize (the same one) to everyone who hits 5k words this weekend, and I might couple that with a cash bonus. All awards will be based on word count, so things like replies, solos, etc are all counted. This might be a good time to get those old job threads done or replies you've owed way too long posted up.

Graders: If you want to play, I will count each thread graded as 100 words.

The contest will end Sunday night at 10 PM PST. Sign up below if you are participating.

Have fun and write for joy. :)

Goss
