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!

Announcing the 2011 NaNo winners!

Image All hail the 2011 Mizahar NaNoWriMo winners!

And so, with November behind us, we gather to celebrate those who succeeded in posting 50,000 words on the in-character boards with a single character. The winner count frankly exceeded my expectations, or maybe I just underestimated the sheer number of people entering the contest. Throughout the month we posted 2,372,820 words on the IC boards for a total of 2,828,999 words across all boards, amounting to about 0.1% of NaNoWriMo's worldwide word count.

Without further ado, here are the 13 winners of the main challenge. They'll receive their medals as soon as we decide on what it should look like. I'm also not terribly familiar with the side challenges, but those will be honored as well.

Thanks to everyone who participated, and also to those who didn't and still contributed to our extraordinary activity last month. Throughout December we're going to take a rest from frenzied writing to focus once more on insightful plots and polished words. :)

Congrats NaNo Winners!



The Side Challeges are .... *drumroll*

Top Word Count:
Eridanus of course (to receive an overachiever medal)
Thread Challenges: Whomever completed the NaNo Thread Challenges regardless of their status on managing to accomplish Miza's NaNo! You'll need to submit your thread list and what threads you fulfilled challenges in to the Thread Challenge NaNo Forum Thread and I'll award medals this weekend once we get them all up and running. :)

We are also considering a 'I Died Halfway!' award for those with 25,000 words or more but who were unsuccessful in completing NaNo but gave it a good shot. Let us know if you guys want this award!

Congratulations! Y'all seriously kicked some writing butt.

If the "I died half way" badge ends up happening, it should totally be in the theme of Oregon Trail.
