Aaryanna_Mom Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Sounds good to me, though as for the order I'll pm all of you about that. Unless Sandy wants to know what we've decided on, I'm thinking it would be better to leave that up in the air. Also, I agree with you Aaryanna, going second and last is something that can definitely work to our advantage, for the same reasons you already listed. Even if each team member posts differently we'll get a good idea of what to expect and we'll have the opportunity to really put a good solid finishing post in. The only thing we have to worry about is Sandy missing a cliche. I sincerely hope he's very familiar with them since it's going to frustrate me if we lose a lot of points due to him not recognizing one. Other than that I think this will be rather interesting. And since I'm not completely sure on how to write it, I'm pleased that someone else will be getting this thing rolling. Though I'm sure BKstyles and the other Aces were not planning on their posts serving as an example. ;) Especially since they can't afford to be misleading if they want to win. They'll have no choice but to do the best they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaryanna Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 [COLOR="goldenrod"]Grrr!!! Even though I said Beth should go first I want to! And yet I leave in just a few hours for a camping trip. Rats! I won't be back until Friday evening or Saturday morning. Man! I wanna! I wanna be next! Especially since I've got all sorts of ideas on what to put in there! Hehe! Anyway... I guess I'll see how it's going when I get back. So who ever goes next, be sure to clobber them! And... even if I do go later there are so many cliches to use that it's not even funny! lol :catgirl: [/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mom had to spend the night at the hospital for treatments and I know SunfallE as well as Rach have been busy. >_< :animesigh No worries. One of us will be putting it up tomorrow for sure. My mom was originally going to do it until she ended up having to go in for treatments. She wasn't suppose to need to stay at the hospital overnight so that really threw things off for her. I only just found out a few hours ago when I got back from my camping trip. [/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we should have posted to let you know that A_M was going to start. Though I didn't know she ended up needing to be in the hospital for a bit. >_< If the others don't have time, once I've gotten some sleep I'll be able to post if the others already have commitments for the weekend. Now that my tests are done I have plenty of time both later today and tomorrow. I swear if it's not performances it's written exams. :animesigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaryanna_Mom Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I'm terribly sorry Sandy. I had intended to post yesterday but I was so tired I ended up sleeping most of the day. However, before Rachmaninoff went to bed he wrote up a quick pm and sent it to me so I'd know he already started a post. All he has to do is finish it. He assures me that he will have that up later today once he's gotten some rest. ;) And then it will be the Ace's turn yet again. So I hope that's satisfactory for you.

Rachmaninoff Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 And done Aaryanna_Mom. You guys have no idea how much I had to 'dumb' that down to hit the required 500 words. I was over by quite a bit. And using so many cliches? That was painful. lol But what will be even more painful is if Sandy misses some of them. >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaryanna Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 [COLOR="goldenrod"]*pokes Sandy* Just so you know I'm working on my post since I'm next. :p But it's getting late for me so I'll finish on Monday when I get up and post it then. You know, when I'm not braindead from also doing a post for Silver One and working with indifference for an event for FQFG2 since it needed to be finished today. Oh and be looking for it since everyone's invited to be a part of it. Hehe! Just too many things going on at the same time. ^_~ Also, so many cliches and so few words allowed. :animesigh That's why I'm quitting for the moment. I have to trim it back down and it's frustrating me. :bawl: [B]EDIT:[/B] And done! Talk about going overboard with cliches. >_< That's gotta be the cheesiest post I've every written!

Sandy Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 I should probably give you a forewarning: even talking about the [I]number[/I] of clichés in public will disqualify your post. So far you haven't said exact numbers, but you better take this warning seriously. Losing just one post will most probably make you lose the whole challenge. Oh, and Kathy, I hope everything's okay now (or as okay as they can be in your condition). Remember that you're a rolemodel to us all, you brave woman. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the warning though. That would have sucked to lose over something like that. Especially after Rach and Aaryanna put so much work into their posts. Oh and by the way. I swear! Seeing that you had posted in our thread about gave me a heart attack! I was thinking... [I]Damn! How did we mess up?[/I] [B]XD[/B] Don't scare me like that Sandy! LOL!

Rachmaninoff Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I'll second the great job bit, that was fantastic Aaryanna. As cheesy as this whole thing is, if only because it's painful to read a story with so many cliches in it, it is in it's own way funny. It certainly pokes fun at just how absurd some of those cliches really are. lol Anyway, I guess that means once KW is done you're up Aaryanna_Mom, and based on what you've told me SunfallE, I'm looking forward to seeing you wrapping things up at the very end. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I do not have time to work on my post today. So unless it's a problem, look for it tomorrow. Also... Good work so far everyone. :catgirl: [B] EDIT:[/B] Okay, look for it tomorrow, or rather Friday. I do have it written up but now I have to fix it to match the 500 words, so I'll finish that up in the morning and post. ;) [B]EDIT:[/B] And finally! I'm sorry that took so long. It took me forever to get it to 500 words and yet still keep all the cliches in there. :animesigh I wanted to write it like a real story and yet doing so would have made it next to impossible as far as attempting to win goes.

SunfallE Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 [COLOR="goldenrod"]:animesigh Thanks for the implication that we have no honor Sandy. And Rach and A_M have already voiced what I'm thinking as well. Whee! That makes me a sore loser too I guess. I'll come back when I'm not frustrated, otherwise I'd just quit and be done with it. Since right now I'd rather argue over what you missed on both sides. :animeangr [B]EDIT:[/B] And I'm sorry guys, I tried something different and it lost us the game so I'm sorry. >_<[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaryanna Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 [COLOR="goldenrod"]:animedepr I have nothing to say. After all, no matter how I put it, it will make me look like a sore loser as well. So yeah, I'll come back later as well since I too feel like throwing my hands up and quitting.
