I don't have any points for battling. Also what is battling? How do I do it? 

Another thing, Alien is on a trip until sunday. :/

THUNDERDOME!

Yay.

I read what the Thunderdome is. Thanks DB. :)

...And now I'm terrified.... :,)

No, Thunderdome.  See above.  

I am not confident of your chances of survival based upon your extreme ineptitude in that Debate thread you started.  Plus, since I posted in the message above a link to the explanation of thunderdome, you seem to have not even comprehended that.  Please do better, your incompetence is really starting to be unfunny.

I have points now. Some one gave me some. Thank you person who gave me those point! ToT It was very nice of you! I can't thank you enough! T^T

Oh ye of little faith. I am up for the challenge and I believe my schedule is too. We just have to wait for Alien to return from being on a trip. 

Do you know Alien in real life or did he just randomly tell you he was going on a trip in a message or something

We are friends on here! :D I don't know Alien irl. He messaged me one day asking if he could help me with writing the original idea I had for the Crisis Contest (medieval fantasy themed) right after I switched it (Chaos's Game). Alien is actually really good at writing and we plan on working together to finish his passion project as well as a story he is working on about two sisters facing dinosaurs and aliens. :D

Lol 

Well I guess Alien needs all the friends he can get. Actually that was surprisingly strategic of him to befriend a new member just coming in since he’s pretty much annoyed all the older members here.

Guess we’ll see if it works out for him.

Lol, I guess we think alike (kinda). I was trying to befriend other people I knew were new for a little bit, but then I got so caught up writting to try and appease Miss Mizal and chatting with DBNB, Ogre, and Ford (and a little with DireRyse) that I stopped reaching out to other newbies like myself. (Mainly cause my irl life take priority and I do that stuff any chance I can get in between college work and work, so I don't fall behind with writing my Crisis Contest story.)

Well, if Alien shows up there might not be actual sentences, but perhaps words and phrases.

Alien is an excellent writer. You haven't seen his work, I have, and it was spectacular. :)

Please explain to everyone why exactly you think my writing is "spectacular"? From what you told me in private (and what I sent you) I can't help but feel your saying my writing is good on the basis that you like the premise rather than you actually think the writing is good (though it wouldn't surprise me if you liked what I wrote on a personal level).

I'm bothering to ask you to say this in public so people don't get the wrong idea of what to expect from me. As simply saying my writing is "very good" is way too vauge and doesn't properly convey why its good in any meaningful way.

Or you could just not...that works too! ;)

(Needless to say I appreciate the compliments! lol :P)

Well, part of the issue is that we have already seen some of your writing from the last contest.  Your writing, and whining in posts, is how you were able to get triple shamed from just one contest.  That seems like some kind of record. So, although raven may be able to give her opinion, it wont really carry much weight until you demonstrate something different.

But there is hope.  You are already scheduled to take on the winner of this week's thunderdome (so don't flake out), and you are also entered into the crisis contest. Also, you have stuck around after your public shame which demonstrates some persistance (or perhaps stupidity - that remains to be seen).

I said you're writing was good because I personally thought the stuff you showed me on Docs was fantastic. That is all. :o I genuinely think your writing is fantastic. From what I have seen, you easily convey what is unfolding in a story and the emotions that the mc experiences. 

So yes, I think you're writing is fantastic. And if it is just bias (or the fact I think eveyone is better than me) then someone shoot me. :P

Thanks....I think. 

Anyway, quick question. Can I write it in Google Docs and send a link? I don't know how the whole writing and sending the story thing works. It wasn't explained in the rules... :/

You can send it this way: click on my stuff, then messages and then you can send it to Mizal

So....I can do a link (or copy and paste) in docs....? And sent it that way....?

Don't get fancy.  Just send the text of a whole story in a dm.

I don't have Discord. Actually, I mention that in my profile. Do you just mean private message?

It has nothing to do with discord.  The same way you send direct messages to other people on the site will also send one to Mizal.  Just put the text of the story in the message 

edit: yes. Direct message = private message.  Same thing 

*face palm*

Someone, slap me in the face or back of the head please. I should have thought DIRECT message not DISCORD message. 

-_-

I'm glad that the other members of CYS could help you out with your job. :)

Not me, obviously. I was the one asking the question, but still.

D:

And me...Miss Mizal.... Cause I submitted on time and now I'm against mystery people..... D:

Honest reaction, I felt my stomach drop....

Thank you... that's actually rather reassuring.... :)

I know right.  I might just roll random dice for a winner.

Is the topic the same at least?

(Also, Alien is back)

Ok! PHEW! :o

Have all the people who joined finished writing? I can't wait to get reading! :D

Ok!

Decided to stay up so that I can read and review these stories! (Probably won't vote...as I'm not sure how well I can trust my own judgement on what makes something well written or not!)

Given that idk when they'll be up though...I might end up looking at them tomorrow...or later today. Sometime later is basically what I mean...

Dude. Voting on a story you like seems pretty simple. You seem old enough to at least understand your own personal likes and dislikes so I wonder whose jugdement you trust regarding things you like if not your own.  There is no criteria that is required for voting as you know since you have participated in voting in a Thunderdome duel before; this is not new.   

Vote / don't vote, whatever.

Before your edit I was going to say I couldn't imagine using this website on mobile. As given how old it is that sounds very tedious! (Then again I don't do much, if anything, on mobile anyways...)

Then I looked at your edit with the very hot car and...

Now that just sounds (absolutely) miserable! :(

Do what you can though! Given what your going through now, its no big deal! We can wait! :D

I actually shared this site with a work friend. I asked her the next time we worked together if she had sighed up at all and she said she had tried on moblie. I was like "Nah, girl, that's too small. You gotta use a computer. (Which, even then it's smaller that most website these days.)". She told me she'd have to charge her computer first then do it. I'm still waiting to see her user on here lol.

One, she is not gay (or lesbian).

Second, she has a boyfriend.

that never gets old.  

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree.

No, I agreed that it never gets old. :P

No biggy! :P :D

Miss Mizal, if you are waiting to schedule the next round for Thunderdome 13 because you need to know dates from Wizzy and I, Monday thru Wednesday work for me. :)
