Posted November 1, 2015 4. Submit your answer only once. You may not change your answer once it has been submitted. Does this mean we won't know if our answer is right or wrong until after the event? Share this post Link to post

Posted November 2, 2015 It is a little confusing, yes, but the mods and Trix will drop a hint in a few days. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Event Announcement Due to multiple people saying the quest is too hard, and the fact that no correct answers have been recieved, the following rule change will be implemented. You are now allowed to submit your answer more than once. I will PM back as soon as possible telling you if it's correct or not. Also, a little hint to push you in the right direction: Is there some part of the quest that seems...out of place? A little random, and irrelevant? Those unnecessary detours that slowed you down, are they really hindrances? Or do they contain a vital clue? Look for clues in paths that lead to dead ends or paths that go the long way around. The cutoff for the largest prize will be moved to Nov. 5th due to the changes in the rules. A very big clue will also be announced on the 5th. So if you want the large prize hurry with your answers, but if you're having trouble I'm sure the clue that will be given on the 5th will be of great help! Sorry for the confusion! I hope you're all still having fun! Edited November 2, 2015 by GoldeenTrix Share this post Link to post
Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) … this is proving to be exceptionally difficult. What What Whaaaaat I'll join but confuse what Can you say using: [COLOR=transparent]Spoiler Color[/COLOR] to tell me what's so confusing? (Or PM me so I can help a little.) When beta reading it I didn't think it seemed too difficult. Edited November 3, 2015 by Vrack Share this post Link to post
Posted November 3, 2015 No nevermind it's good I had an app that made text bigger 'cause I'm farsighted but it screwed up the gd text so everything was overlapping other things and it looked like 'sword tff of lght' or something but it's good now I deleted it for the time being Share this post Link to post
Posted November 3, 2015 I'm not participating. (My murderous Pooty can save itself.) But I just wanna say that all the possessive "it's" are driving me nuts. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) I'm not participating. (My murderous Pooty can save itself.) But I just wanna say that all the possessive "it's" are driving me nuts. I thought I had found them all, sorry. I hope the fact that it sometimes changes to the past tense doesn't screw up your sense of emersion either. (I tried but I probably missed some of the mistakes.) Edited November 3, 2015 by Vrack Share this post Link to post

Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Eh-heh. The good news is that I'm probably the pickiest-about-grammar-person you'll ever meet. I enjoyed the story! Lol, sorry for all the bloops. Some parts were a little rushed because I was trying to study and write at the same time. It would have been much worse if Vrack and Chibi didn't look it over. I'll try and correct everything when I have the time. Right now I've got lots of stuff to edit in the first few posts Everything Updated!
