Orange's Motivational Thread

Alright, so I don't have the best track record when it comes to procrastination. In fact, I'm working on the spring contest and I'm well behind where I want to be. Well, fear not citizens of CYStia, I have a plan. (Not that anyone actually cares.) My plan is to use public shame to my advantage by sharing my progress with all of you. There's only a month left for this and I'm nowhere near my goal so here's hoping I can grab my lazy personality by the balls and force it into high gear. I'll probably post regular updates on here, maybe not, it IS my lazy ass we're talking about here.

Requesting ways to incentivize this @EndMaster. Let us wager points on deadlines being met or not met (paid out by the person running the thread), there's no teeth to these otherwise.

I would, but Killa said he was running a regular contest with no bets or anything.

That's probably why the contest threads have been a little quieter than they usually are. (No outlandish boasts, bragging, etc.)

Thing is this is only point redistribution not point creation, and accordingly should be kosher

Alright, so I haven't written much in the last two days. In my defense, I haven't had access to a computer during this time so I had to write the last thousand words on my phone like a peasant. I decided that I'm going to have to cut out two of the endings, so I've changed the true endings number to two.
