Polls Monday, Second Chances Coming Soon...
More contest updates:
-I planned to read through all the 3000+ word entries--just finished that. From here on out I'll focus on ones already marked as having possible story problems. Beginning with the disqualified ones or likely to be disqualified ones; time for the second chances.
-If this can't all get done before Sunday is over, the polls will go up anyways. Probably Monday around noon; we'll see. That means that's the final deadline... sort of. Read on...
-All the time till the 18th will be for preliminary polls. Semifinals will be in S&T, as well as finals (again, dates will be announced later).
-Typos and grammar and such do not disqualify. Keep that in mind. The Leftover Judging Topic will remain open when the polls go up, and we will keep working on any "doubly leftover" such things.
-When the polls go up, any stories that are still DQed remain DQed. So consider Sunday, midnight, or soon after it, to be the deadline for second chances. However:
-I'm a forgiving guy. So minor, minor story errors that still remain can still be fixed after the polls are up. It's not like I'd toss you out of the polls if one sentence has an issue.
I think that about covers everything. Except this: Please, please, if you've PMed me asking me to edit your entry, realize that won't happen till the last second. Already my inbox has two pages of stuff that I have to postpone getting to. Please use the new post with new version method of fixing errors.
