Discussion Thread - 100 Word Anonymous Writing Challenge Feb 2015

[farntfar]

Well. There! I'm in.
Oh dear! Do you think I've given myself away?

Yup. Great job, J.L. ! (And I liked your story too. )

 

[J.L. Borstlap]

Maybe I felt that I needed to sty out of this one? Being in charfe of posting and all?

Or maybe I didn't?

 

[J.L. Borstlap]

Ladymen and Genties!

In exactly Five and a Half hours I will be announcing the names that took part in the challenge. The Poll would be up for voting and we will be getting our brains a work to decide.

Lets see some last minute entries!!!

Writes furiously to try to meet the deadline....

I have absolutely no idea what those abbreviations mean. Some of these look like they take place in the US... we generally use Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Western.

GMT - Greenwich Mean Time, usually referred to, now, as UTC.
CAT - Central African Time
The first AST - Atlantic Standard Time (UTC-4, used in some parts of Eastern Canada)
AWST - Australian Western Standard Time.
The last AST looks like a mistake - it's UTC-6 which is CST. I think JL might have meant Alaskan Standard Time, in which case it's 04:00 am.

One hour till the challenge closes!!

[Kerrybuchanan]

Oh, looks like I did enter after all. Now to try and remember which one it was....

 

[chrispenycate]

Is that you? I'd never have recognised you without your leading vowel. However, I seem well and truly compromised. Hey, ho, a reading we shall go.

 

[mosaix]

J.L. I don't seem to be able to see who has voted for what. I think it's an option when setting up the poll. If it's too late for you to change it, I wonder if a mod could do the honours?

 

[J.L. Borstlap]

I realised it too late, I will ask a moderator just now!

 

[Hex]

eeek! Sorry. I don't think I can. I will go and ask the others.

 

[crystal haven]

I just want to say thank you to Victoria for doing all the reviews. I always enjoy reading them.

 

[Hex]

Hi, you guys. After some experimentation, I've discovered I can do it but I'll need to reset the poll (ie: the existing votes will be removed and people will need to vote again). Would you like me to?

 

[mosaix]

I think it would be a good idea, but I haven't voted yet anyway. If there's any way you can tell who's already voted perhaps you could PM them so they can vote again?

Thanks, Hex.

 

[Hex]

I'm afraid I can't see who has already voted

 

[J.L. Borstlap]

Well Hex has said that the previous 100 Worders were like this poll? Why not just keep it like this?

 

[Hex]

The last one was. It's up to you guys. Let me know what you'd like

 

[J.L. Borstlap]

I think keep it as it is, makes things even more anonymous

 

[farntfar]

I think it was much the same with the last one, but somehow they became visible later.
Maybe you can see the others once you've voted yourself.
Even you, as the creator of the poll can't see it J.L.?
