 Sooooooo, can you make it TO BE CONTINUED!?!? Or is that Taboo?I only have one epic that I have been working on, and It's got a couple great hanging points, Could I just ask the judges to read up to ohh, say Line zerodefour, paragraph elevendy two? and put in an edited ending and take it out when the contest is done? -------------------- Jasaga
If there are any legends, stories, and folk tales that you know of, go ahead and pm me your Bionicle converted story, where it will be posted in a list of short stories in the Turaga's Tales topic Here's an epic I was writing a long time ago, I'm not very sure as to where I was going with it right now, but if you'd like, your can read Tahu, warrior, gaurdian, fender of the such and such May the waters of Mata Nui guide your spirits and heal your souls |

Oh Frizzle Frazzled Monkies! First Makuta Master enters, then Schizo, Now Fallen Turtles! Well, looks like the top 3 spots are already won! It'll be 4 if GaliGee enters. So, looking at the odds, i'm just gonna throw my fic in and run!
*Throws an old dusty little book from his ledge into the library, where all the libraians look up and give him a mad glare, and MNH runs like the monkies out of the Library, hoping for the best.* Here is my entry: The Chronicler Company 2: Tales of the Company glad I re-typed that Boxor chapter in time. Good Luck everybody! Shizo, Makuta Master, and FT, You guys don't need it, you already won, but good luck anyway! [I meant that in the best way possible!] -------------------- My Stories

Hi everyone, looks like we're going to have a great selection of stories.
 A couple of clarifications:1) Sig advertizing is fine, since this is not a poll. 2) A "temporary" ending is OK, just keep writing the real stuff, save it on your own computer, and post it when the contest is over. Or, start a new topic with the new stuff. We Mods can combine the two topics for you later, just PM me. 3) I don't actually know how the judges will judge, that's up to them. If I were a judge (which I'm not), I would look at these things:

Well KopakaX, I guess you'll have to find out yourself. ( I know I will). Gali Gee, would it be okay if I just copied a the desired chunk of the story for the contest and posted it, telling Judges to go there instead?

ACK! I AM DOOMED! All these good writers... noo...
lol, anyway. I have another question. My story starts just before the attack on Le-Koro by the Bohrok. But, what I have done during the story to create more tension is "create specials explaining the past of the heroes right after a chapter that ends with the hero getting kranaed" and so on. Like, the day the bohrok appeared in Ta-Koro. But, I have given each "special" a special name like the silver century (The time before the Bohrok), after the rahi (self explanitary) and so on. Is that allowed? -------------------- "In the criminal justice system, there are 2 major groups. The police, and the bakers who make donuts for them." -X-[/color]

Can somebody please tell me who won the last one?! None of the entrants received notification when or if the winners where ever announced! Or at least not poor little Hiko. . .
-------------------- Talk like that to my mods again and you'll be banned. Don't like the message I'm getting across? Tough.
Bionicle Rex This message was left in place of my old sig. In that sig I had asked that I be warned before a Moderator changes my stats. I suppose this is considered rebellious nature. Anyone who reads this can interpret this any way they want. There is no message I'm trying to get out this time. ....and now you're banned. BR |

Thanks, everyone who entered! This topic will be locked now until IMW PMs me a complete list of links, and I will edit the first post to include them. Then it will stay locked until the winners are announced. I encourage everyone to read the stories, I have read a few of them, and the selection is outstanding!
