2007-01-19 [windowframe]: Yeah, to you and Vel, I'm sorry your round wasn't so good. :/

2007-01-19 [syagre]: a pity that only half of the players were awoken indeed...

2007-01-19 [Shadow-ofDeath]: No problem, Lerune, it was a fun time. I happen to have a lack of study habits and real life, so I didn't bother studying for my exams. Java didn't go so well... but I managed a B at least. Thanks to everybody that showed up! I had a great time, and it was good practice for my RPing skills.

2007-01-19 [Veltzeh]: Yeah, there's the thing that the talents of the fellow players tend to have a bit of effect on playing... X)

2007-01-19 [Just.Kate]: Oh, that was such a great RP, beautiful ending. :) Even if I dont get past this round, I feel privileged to have been allowed to participate, thank you.

2007-01-19 [Fireblade K'Chona]: don't worry, if it's this big a hit all the time I'm sure there'll be more of these. Right? :D

If I have enough fun I might start one myself!

I'll be back. Right now I desparately need some Vaseline or something because I've been blowing my nose constantly all day. I hate being sick. >.<

2007-01-20 [Shadow-ofDeath]: I'd love to have a chance to moderate one of these... I need to be more involved to have a chance at being an Elftown sla - er - worker...

2007-01-20 [Azuri]: *is sad she completly forgot about it* Ive been waiting so long for it and when it got here I forgot, I feel so stupid and sad :(

2007-01-21 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Looks like only about half the contestants in mine even showed up. >.<

2007-01-21 [iippo]: Lets keep this page for questions, thanks. :)

2007-01-21 [Nite_Owl]: I wish my dad's computer hadn't have broken down over the weekend, I missed a lot of posts in the RP :\ I'll try to be on as often as I can (hopefully)

2007-01-22 [Just.Kate]: -pokes [Nite_Owl]lightly- Page for questions, kthnx.

2007-01-22 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Question-would you enable comments on the contest pages so we can chatter there instead? :P

2007-01-22 [Fizban]: Yeah, that would be friggen awesome :)

2007-01-22 [Nite_Owl]: The above seconded here (^,^)

2007-01-22 [Lothuriel]: Conversation is already allowed on Champion's Tournament, if I am not mistaken.

2007-01-22 [Fizban]: it is, but it's more convinent on the page, becuase in champions, everyone is talking to everyone, vs us talking to us lol.

Which is why we care, we are lazy XD. It's just easier.

2007-01-22 [Lothuriel]: Start a conversation wiki then.  For people in this contest.

2007-01-22 [Fizban]: Lol, why not XD. Sounds good to me lol.

2007-01-22 [iippo]: Sorry I had a trigger-happy moment and deleted the comment with the link, because it had the gamepage wiki title in it and I thought there had been a cock-up with wiki-protection stuff. o.O;;

2007-01-22 [Elisha Kelly]: doh!

2007-01-22 [iippo]: It's just that we don't want you talking about how it's going and what it's like to people who haven't had their round yet - it's like spoilers. :/

2007-01-22 [Fireblade K'Chona]: ...which is why if we chattered on the protective page, no one would see us?...

2007-01-22 [windowframe]: We have our reasons for not wanting you to chatter on those pages. kthanxbi. :) 

2007-01-22 [Fizban]: LOL, dammit...I feel like posting it in the wiki whatever talking site because thats the only page I know of where everyone who needs to talk will see it XD

2007-01-22 [iippo]: But think: is it fair contest-wise thinking that you chat about the game? If you talk about what's happening OOC, you might blurt out something that someone else hasn't noticed. You might ask a question that no one else had thought of. You might misinterpret something going on in the game and thus confuse other players who got it right. In essence you would be influencing other people's gameplay, their contest entries. Now I know that chatting is a part of RPing, but this is not a collaborative story as a regular RP, this is a contest. Chatting will make the judges' work a lot more difficult, trying to see who thought of what at what time, who bothered other people's game etc... Do you see why we dislike the OOC game-related chatting?

2007-01-22 [Fizban]: And there is the topic I was afraid you'd bring up. Yes, I had thought of that...its much more random and unplanned this way. Which is still enjoyable...but more difficult indeed.

2007-01-23 [iippo]: Erm, it's not unplanned, there's a mod who knows exactly what she is doing.

2007-01-23 [Fizban]: lol...no no no. I am not talking about your guys, god I know you have plans you definetly had time for them :P

I am talking about the players.

It becomes less random when the players reveal there characters intents and actions before they have them act, thus allowing the other players to compliment or contrast them accordingly. That is less random.

2007-01-26 [xido]: Still watching... And I see that the dates are approaching my name and character set.

I wish the best to everyone!
-will

2007-01-26 [~Acidelf3~]: is there any way we can read them?

2007-01-26 [iippo]: The games? After every group has played their round.

2007-01-26 [~Acidelf3~]: okay so .. why cant we read them cause its like jan 26. so the twelth through the 18 has played why cant we read those posts? Or is it that everyone down to group seven has to go?

2007-01-26 [windowframe]: If you read iippo's comment again, you will see that she did indeed say "after every group has played their round."

2007-01-26 [NamelessMerc]: Bah, I've failed =( I couldn't get online after Tuesday, and the whole thing went so far without me that I figure 'm screwed. Oh well, the part I was in was fun.

Thanks guys =]

*Edited to remove icky redness*

2007-01-26 [Nylen Estrall]: "Oh, oh, I know!" he raises his hand with excitement, "Can we read them now?" :P

2007-01-26 [Just.Kate]: It would not be fair for the groups behind the ones who have already gone to have insight into the ideas used in previous RP. Its quite possible that they are using a similar if not identical storyline, to facilitate ease in judgment of skill. Understand now?

2007-01-27 [Shadow-ofDeath]: What time do we expect to know the results of each round, will they all be announced at the end of the tournament?

2007-01-27 [Elisha Kelly]: will the last three groups be going at the same time? or will it be 2 then 1?

2007-01-27 [iippo]: Elysiann: Last groups will be first 2, then 1.
Shadow-ofDeath: Each round's results will be revealed after each rounf (note that the result will be either "pass" or "fail").
And to maybe ease the confusion: group = 5-8 people labelled under "Group I", "group II" etc... and Round = all those groups. So when Group VII has played, round ends and then all the game pages will be exposed.

2007-01-28 [Elisha Kelly]: yay... cause I wasna gonna be around much this week :)

2007-02-05 [Lothuriel]: Too bad we didn't get to play together [Elisha Kelly], we would have rocked their worlds!! 

On a serious note: So, when the last round is complete only then will we know if we passed on to the next level? Just making sure I understand correctly.

2007-02-05 [iippo]: Yes, that's correct. Well, more accurately, when the judges have done the judging the results will be revealed, so it won't be right after the last group's game, since they'll need a bit of time to finish judging that one too.

2007-02-05 [Lothuriel]: Ah, ok. I just wanted to make sure I was following correctly. I tend to rush through reading and miss things.

2007-02-05 [NamelessMerc]: Also, a question from me: Will there be a 'winner' from each group? Or several? Or will judging be across the board and winners selected from the best?

2007-02-05 [windowframe]: Everyone who deserves to go to the next round, will go to the next round. So there won't be a 'winner' of this round, as it were - just the people who get to go on to the next round. There may be one person from one group who we feel deserves to progress, but 5 from a different group who go through.

2007-02-05 [Grengo]: I most likely overlooked this, but for the groups involved, is there a minimum/maximum number of people per group moving on to the next stage (so something like only 4 can make it past a group and what not) or are there no limitations (meaning up to everyone can pass in a group, though this also includes the possibility of an entire group not making it through)? EDIT: This was probably indirectly answered by SilverFire in the message above mine, considering I didn't see it updated before <_<

2007-02-05 [Aradon Templar]: That's addressed in the comment just above yours, by SilverFire :)
"Everyone who deserves to go to the next round, will go to the next round."

2007-02-05 [iippo]: up to everyone can pass in a group, though this also includes the possibility of an entire group not making it through
This is correct.
The game isn't a group entry, it's everyone for himself like in most ET contests.

2007-02-05 [windowframe]: For all those who missed their round, due to whatever reason, please message [iippo] or [windowframe] within the next week, (deadline: 12th Feb) with your reason for missing your original play-date if you wish to still compete. We encourage everyone who missed their round to do so - even if you think your reason is poor - we will set up a final group for those we believe have a geniune reason for missing their first round, so that they may still compete. Thank you.

2007-02-12 [EmeraldGrizzly]: Do I just place my character in the last group?

2007-02-12 [Kim_Lundin]: [EmeraldGrizzly]: If it's about missing your round, you should just message [iippo] or [windowframe], as was described in the comment above yours. If you wanted to join the contest now, I'm afraid you're too late.

2007-02-12 [EmeraldGrizzly]: Ah, my bad, the page said it was still open. I probaly misread it, thanks anyway. :)

2007-02-12 [windowframe]: The contest is still open - just not to new entrants. ;)

2007-02-12 [Kim_Lundin]: Perhaps that part should be changed a bit, it seems many get confused about it.

2007-02-12 [Azuri]: *does the happy dance* when do we start?

2007-02-12 [windowframe]: I'll post the dates about a week in advance, since we gave people up until the 12th to contact us if they wanted a second chance, it can't be before then.

2007-02-12 [Azuri]: Mmkay, just curious so I can try to remember and hope its on my off days XD

2007-02-26 [Jeesum Crowe]: *hopes she's not doing anything then*

2007-02-26 [iippo]: *hopes that Jeesum will be doing the RP then* o.O

2007-02-26 [Jeesum Crowe]: Beside that. And I do have some things but I think I can deal.

2007-02-27 [Azuri]: Whaha lucky lucky I so have those days off...err unless thats the off week. Oh well I should do fine^_^

2007-02-28 [Elisha Kelly]: o.O Lucky I was online today :D or I wouldn't have realised when the start date was... :D tee hee

2007-03-01 [Sturmi]: just one group to go, yay

2007-03-06 [Azuri]: Hey anyone know when we all will be invited to the page(it says it starts today), Ive got nothing for it yet and I really don't want to miss it again

2007-03-06 [Elisha Kelly]: you haven't missed it yet. [iippo] and [windowframe] are in a different timezones, they will prolly be on laters :)

2007-03-06 [Azuri]: Ok :) I figured that was probably the case I just wanted to make sure, I'm really psyched about this!

2007-03-06 [Jeesum Crowe]: ....I have to wait up? I have to wake up in... 9 hours. Heh. But later it'll be bad.

2007-03-06 [Azuri]: Lol I don't have to be to bed *does a happy dance* but I totally know how that goes. I used to get like 3 hours a sleep when I was on morning shift

2007-03-06 [Jeesum Crowe]: I needs mah sleep!

2007-03-06 [Elisha Kelly]: well I am going to soccer training... so I'll check back in another4 hours or so.

2007-03-06 [Fizban]: El futbol is muy bien :)

2007-03-06 [Nite_Owl]: Ack, no me gusta el futbol. Pero, me gust el futol norteamericano, y me gusta mucho jugar beisbol y basquetbol :D hehehe estoy practicar espanol para el examen de verbos y vocabulario la manana...espero hacer bueno...

2007-03-06 [Kai Crewger]: eeh, no me gusta mucho jugar los deportes. Pero, me gusta mirar. Y te espero hacer bueno tambien. ^^

2007-03-06 [Azuri]: *dies from lack of knowing whats being said*

2007-03-07 [Kai Crewger]: *pats on head* that'll do, zuri. that'll do.

2007-03-07 [Elisha Kelly]: I think someone said they prefered basketball... other than that I have no idea.

2007-03-07 [Azuri]: XD hehe yay I'm not alone

2007-03-07 [Fizban]: Me encanta el futbol, y no me gusta norteamericano, pero con mis amigos, esta es deversion. Y, no me gusta beisbol, o basquetbol lol. Me encanta hablar en esta lingua, y yo quiero saber mas linguas. je nu se pas hablar en frances pero, yo fue apprender!

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: Fiz said football (soccer) is very good, then Owl said no, they don't like football (soccer). But they like North American football and baseball and basketball. And they uh... something about practicing Spanish for a verbal/vocabulary exam tomorrow. And then Kai said something. And then ya'll got about as confused as me. And then Fiz said something about how football (soccer) is better than North American football and they don't like baseball or basketball. And... I think they said they're fluent in Spanish and... something about French. I think. Maybe. Probably not. *doesn't speak Spanish. Or French. And barely English.*

2007-03-07 [Kai Crewger]: ach, no pudíe aprender el francais. el español es mucho mas facil. pero, quiero aprender el japones en el futuro

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: Jigga wha hoo nono giga figgle waggle nooga jig. Mee anko niko giga wagga noo ga. Iy lita popo neaouie.

2007-03-07 [Fizban]: woah...yo no se que es tu hable, pero si, nosotros dicimos que tu dices, nosotros dicimos XD...mas or menos.

2007-03-07 [Paul Doyle]: Having played both the international version (fullback) and the American version (defensive tackle), I can say they both have their strengths . . . and weaknesses. It's true you probably have to be American to fully appreciate the American version, but it's a more complicated game that's far more demanding of its athletes than the international version. However, the international version is more graceful and fluid, and if you're a little wuss with fancy foot moves you can get somewhere. In the American version, if you're a little wuss with fancy foot moves you aren't going to last long. in the USA soccer is generally seen as something for children, something for immigrants, something for high schoolers/college students who don't have the athletic skills to play basketball/baseball/American football, and (increasingly) something to be ruined by drunken violent savage fans, at the expense of the game itself. In my experience, soccer is awesome physical exercise and horrible entertainment, whereas American football is risky, stop/start physical exercise---and far better entertainment. I never got injured playing either sport, by the way.

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: Rugby pwns all.

2007-03-07 [Elisha Kelly]: yeah!!!!! American gridiron sux!!!!! (or whatever it is called... ) the way those guys pad themselves up and whatever.... come play some rugby league, that make real men out of you! (unless you do a Hopoate special that is... that was just uncalled for... though strangly entertaining to watch!)

2007-03-07 [Paul Doyle]: Well, if you've even been hit hard in the pads (and when you're a defensive lineman trying to sack the quarterback or tackle the running back for a loss behind the line of scrimmage, you do get hit hard by the offensive linemen trying blocking you) you feel all the shock but suffer little or any of the damage. One time I got accidentally kicked in the groin (this happened as I made a tackle) and even though I had that hard cup protecting my 'nads, I still felt it. I became violently ill and that was the end of the game for me. And regarding rugby, I'd rather not die at age 40-something from a combination of old rugby injuries and alcoholism. The American football pads are there for a reason, and even with them on, horrific injuries still occur at the collegiate and professional levels. (I just played high school football.)

2007-03-07 [Paul Doyle]: Case in point: This is infamous footage from the 1980s that I distinctly remember. Sorry about the shoddy quality, but the injury is all too graphic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clM8mPPDx9E

2007-03-07 [Elisha Kelly]: o.O dude you take everything way too seriously :P

2007-03-07 [Paul Doyle]: Just having fun :)

2007-03-07 [Elisha Kelly]:  >.> so you say XP

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: Bitch, rugby still pwns.

2007-03-07 [Delladreing]: lol, we have American students staying at my university just now. There was a lot of bantering between the players and the guys watching on, things like "Dude where's your armour" "Pfft armour, this is a Man's sport boy, we don't use armour."

After 20 minutes of watching the game one of the guys who plays "football" back home, who is about 6ft5 and built like an ox, turned to me and said "You lot are f*cking nuts"

It was amusing :P

2007-03-07 [Paul Doyle]: Every sport has its advantages and disadvantages :)

2007-03-07 [Delladreing]: Agreed. I played field hockey for years. Great game, great exoricse (hated my uniform ugh), but even with my mouthguard in I still nearly lost a tooth amd my shins have never quite forgiven me for letting them get hacked to pieces *_* ahhh the memories.

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: Field hockey is cool, too. And regular hockey. I'm such a Canadian. If people get beat the shit up and it's a sport, I like it. This is why Canada doesn't need to go to war.

2007-03-07 [Delladreing]: *lol* see to me field hockey is regular, as we don't play much ice hockey here. I tried it once, but my lack of ability to skate well hindered me severely.

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: The best part about ice hockey is watching them slam into walls and shit and get into fights. So, if in field hockey you were to find a wall and slam someone into it and then get into a fight I would probably like it about as much as ice hockey. But the skating is cool, it makes neat sound effects.

2007-03-07 [Delladreing]: Heh, its easily to slam people in to things in field hockey. If its gravel you're playong on slide at them and tackle their feet. If its fake grass then same but with less force because that stuff is slippy. It also burn like merry hell. The worst injuries I've ever had were from sliding on that field of jagged fake grass that is essentially made out of asphalt. Only they coloured it green. One girl (all girls teams) tackled me deliberatly, hooked the stick round my leg and shoved. I slid for a good 3 feet on that stuff, my legs were just burned @_@ Of course my team mates retaliated by doing the same to all the other players >.>

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: I am suddenly more interested in field hockey.

2007-03-07 [Paul Doyle]: Careful what you wish for . . . while finding that old clip of Joe Theismann's career-ending leg injury, I found something a lot worse, of an ice hockey goaltender accidentally getting his jugular cut open by a skate (from 1989, I think). It's far too gross too post here, but since then, goaltenders are better protected, and the guy is still alive---miraculously. If you're an NHL buff, you probably know who he is.

2007-03-07 [Delladreing]: See thats another reason why you don't let me play ice hockey. If someone knocked me down I'd probably take my boot off and start wielding the blade like a weapon.

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: Psh, people have worse things happen to them just walking down the street. *enjoys her bloody sports*

2007-03-07 [Paul Doyle]: Ever seen "Plan 9 From Outer Space", where Bela Lugosi's character is killed off just by walking across his yard (Before he rises again as a cheesy kind of space vampire)? Of course, the real Lugosi died as Ed Wood filmed the movie, but that's besides the point.

2007-03-07 [Elisha Kelly]: hmph... some silly young girl did a slide tackle into my ankle at training ~.~!! now of course I am going to have to retaliate by sitting on her and squishing her good! No slide tackling on your own team mates! save the bitchfest for the game :P

2007-03-07 [Delladreing]: Haha quite right :p

2007-03-07 [Fireblade K'Chona]: I can't skate. At all. It's pathetic. First time I tried, I sprained a wrist. The next time, I sprained an ankle. The third time, I broke my tailbone.

...sooo I gave up. yeah.

But I do sail, and while you don't ram boats into one another (usually) we do get vicious.

I liked floor hockey in gym, though. And baseball. But I was always crap at basketball.

2007-03-07 [Nylen Estrall]: I play floor hockey in the first division in my country... but we call it floorball. It's the european version of floorhockey, some people also call it unihockey or innebandy. I'm leaving for training in 20... but here's a video, that's how the pros play it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQi53_W-fbo

2007-03-07 [Lepellier]: Floor hckey is always fun. Used to play in the recreation league in town. I just wish my school had a Lacrosse team.

2007-03-07 [Jeesum Crowe]: Back home floor hockey/floor ball is called ball hockey.

2007-03-07 [Elisha Kelly]: we just call it hockey... indoor or outdoor.

2007-03-18 [Grengo]: It appears this tournament was dropped, but if in case it wasn't, please drop my characters from this contest as I'm pretty much leaving Elftown. Thanks.

2007-03-18 [windowframe]: You don't have any characters in the tournament - prehaps that is why you've got the impression the tournament was dropped when in fact it's been running quite happily for the past few months. Sorry.

2007-03-18 [Lepellier]: He did have characters in group V, and by the way, is the judging done?

2007-03-18 [iippo]:
Not yet, armyboy, just stay in there. :)
Thanks for letting us know Grengo. All the best.

2007-03-18 [Lepellier]: Eh, not like I'm doing anything too important.

2007-03-18 [windowframe]: So he did, for some reason when I searched the page for his name after reading his comment, it only came up with comment, and nothing else. O.o

2007-03-18 [iippo]: I hate it when that happens.

2007-03-18 [Lepellier]: lol, Yeah, I knew he did, he was in the same group I was. :)

2007-03-18 [windowframe]: It's never happened to me before, but I can see it being very annoying.

2007-03-19 [Nylen Estrall]: This is the longest ET tournament ever :)
We should get an extra 'Patience' badge along with the contest-badge :D

2007-03-19 [Azuri]: Lol yesh indeed, we've been good at that :-P

2007-03-19 [iippo]: Erm... Good at being patient? You sure there aren't some contestants whose talents lie elsewhere? :P

2007-03-19 [Sturmi]: Grengo we'll miss you!!!! U_U

2007-03-19 [Azuri]: Lol maybe XD

2007-03-19 [iippo]: Less random chat, please :)

2007-03-27 [Just.Kate]: When will the new set start?

2007-03-27 [Lepellier]: Ever hear of wake me up when September ends by Greenday? Well, it seems to be this wiki's theme song...

2007-03-28 [Paul Doyle]: Go back to sleep, Rip van Winkle.

2007-04-20 [Silverbullet]: Weren't we supposed to get access to the other parties' roleplay pages once everyone was done with their round?
Just wondering, cause I'm hankerin' for something to do while I wait for the next round ^____^

2007-04-20 [Paul Doyle]: Here's something to do in the meantime: Warmer Weather Contest.

2007-04-20 [Elisha Kelly]: wow, I hadn't realised it has been over a month since I finished the last round... time has been going so quickly lately.

2007-04-20 [Nylen Estrall]: Some of us finished 3 months ago :)

2007-04-21 [iippo]: Please take chat to Champion's Tournament or now.

2007-04-23 [Lordterrex]: Lets assume that somone was out of town.. could they re enter?.. it looks like we are done role playing.. arent we?

2007-04-23 [windowframe]: We gave a chance to re-enter, it's been and gone, sorry. ^^;

2007-04-24 [Lordterrex]: it is ok. maybe there will be another rp competition. ^_^

2007-07-20 [Fireblade K'Chona]: So...did you guys ever decide on a winner?

2007-07-20 [Azuri]: *shrug* The other part to this contest ended though.

2007-07-20 [Nylen Estrall]: What other part?

2007-07-20 [Azuri]: the one with the profiles and pictures.

2007-07-20 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Ah. The one I didn't know about. Oh well, I can't draw anyway.

2007-07-20 [Silverbullet]: ...That contest wasn't related to this one... >_>

2007-07-20 [Azuri]: they had the same sort of name, i thought they were sorta related >_> Oh well

2007-07-20 [Paul Doyle]: It would be nice to have a roadmap for Round Three. I sincerely hope I wasn't the only one who had fun in Round Two . . .

2007-07-21 [Shadow-ofDeath]: I had fun in the second round, it was very interesting. Really let me see what my character could do.

2007-07-21 [Azuri]: It was defiantly fun and Im still looking forward to round three no matter how long it takes ^_^

2007-07-21 [xido]: I think I must agree with Azuri. ;)

2007-07-21 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Wait, were notifications ever sent to the participants if they didn't get into round two? Because I have no idea what you're talking about.

2007-07-21 [windowframe]: I thought the lack of their name on the contest page was enough. Why would they want a message from me, rubbing it in? O.o

2007-07-21 [Azuri]: Lack of name? Where is this taking place, im confused O.o

2007-07-22 [Aradon Templar]: I believe that it was stated all of the proceeding contestants were listed on this page in a group. If their name did not appear on this page, they did not proceed to the next round. This was done in an attempt to be a little more tactful than messaging each person saying, "I'm sorry, but your character did not proceed."

To make sure all of the participants knew of the next round, there were comments made to the main page of the contest, I believe, saying what I've basically recapped just now, explaining the process for Round Two. We figured that all the contestants would have the main page on watch, so it was a safe way of notifying everyone at once.

2007-07-22 [Azuri]: Oh ok, I thought they ment next round was up there now, I was just confused.

2007-07-22 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Sooo...if we're still on this page, we've proceeded? Because I'm still up there.

I don't mind not proceeding if I didn't get in, because it was fun anyway, but I have to say, I'm just even more confused now than I was when I asked the question.

2007-07-22 [Nylen Estrall]:
First round: Creating characters
Second round: First RP round
Third round: Second RP round
...

2007-07-22 [Lexi. Short and Sweet!]: No, the people who's names are on this page are still the ones that made it into the second round. The people that make it to the third round haven't been announced yet.. at least thats what i can gather..

2007-07-22 [Lerune]: As far as I know, that statement is correct. =o)

2007-07-23 [Silverbullet]: I think the confusion is mainly cause by people forgetting, like [Nylen Estrall] pointed out, that the first round was the actual creation of the characters ;P

2007-07-23 [Jeesum Crowe]: Aye, that does often confuse me.

2007-07-23 [iippo]: First playing round (i.e. second round) judging is still unfinished, I'm afraid.

2007-07-23 [Lepellier]: Still? It's been like 4 months? Oh well, I'll wait. ^_^

2007-07-23 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Oh. Now I get it. Thanks for putting up with me. :P

2007-07-24 [Elisha Kelly]: I must admit I am surprised, I have been gone forever... is there any idea of when we will know? I don't have as much time here anymore but I'd still like to participate if I pass... I really wouldn't want to miss it.

2007-07-24 [iippo]: Elysiann, we'll most likely message everyone again about the next round like we did last time, I believe you can set Elftown to send you an email when you receive a PM. That way you don't have to keep checking ET if you don't have the time, and you'll get notified via the email address you check more often.

2007-07-25 [Elisha Kelly]: cheers, thanks [iippo] :D

2007-10-31 [windowframe]: Could everyone who has made it to round 3 please underline the character they wish to play for this round, please.

2007-10-31 [Veltzeh]: I didn't play the character I chose now in the previous round – should I assume that what happened to the first character also happened (more or less) to the one I'll use now?

2007-10-31 [windowframe]: Yup. :)

2007-10-31 [Lepellier]: I'd only imagine it's fair to say that if you only have 1 character, there's no need to underline them?

2007-10-31 [windowframe]: No, we'll let you off. :P

2007-10-31 [Lepellier]: Sorry, just had to throw that fact out there.

2007-10-31 [Grengo]: Wooo cool, didn't realize I was still in. Erm... guess it isn't too late to ask if I could still participate, despite my earlier departure several months ago? <.<;

2007-10-31 [iippo]: Departure? :P You're on the list, you're in. "And you can never leave."

2007-10-31 [Jeesum Crowe]: Woah. I got in!

2007-10-31 [Kai Crewger]: zomg, awesome!

2007-10-31 [Silverbullet]: Aw yeah! High fives all around!

2007-10-31 [Fireblade K'Chona]: le sad, I'm not in. :( oh well.

2007-11-01 [xido]: I don't understand. I thought I had made it to the next round.
-will

2007-11-01 [Elisha Kelly]: *pounces upon [Jeesum Crowe]* you did you did... I did too!

2007-11-01 [Jeesum Crowe]: WORD, MOFO! We's cool like that.

2007-11-01 [Elisha Kelly]: *feels hip to he square!* (:P I am such a dork!

2007-11-01 [Paul Doyle]: Thanks for the first two rounds. It was lots of fun, and I look forward to participating in similar contests in the future. Best of luck to everyone who advanced :)

2007-11-01 [Jeesum Crowe]: I am too, Elysiann. Just don't tell anyone.

2007-11-02 [Nite_Owl]: Hey cool this place was finally updated, and I is here :D Huzzah! I was wondering when we'd find out :P

2007-11-02 [Kai Crewger]: oh, are we going to be able to visit the pages where the other 'bouts' took place?

2007-11-04 [Elwyne]: looks like I somehow missed round two...

2007-11-04 [Silverbullet]: Remember, Round 1 was creating your character. Round 2 was the first round of roleplaying..

2007-11-05 [Kim_Lundin]: Hahah, I knew I wouldn't continue to this round. Oh well, it was fun to play, best of luck to those of you who passed.

2007-11-05 [Blood Raven]: Aw hell, didnah get through :P
All of my RP buddies will pick on me for weeks :'(
lol

2007-11-05 [Sturmi]: whoo I'm surprised I was picked to continue on this. Awesome.

2007-11-05 [Cassave]: I'm rather curious about that too...

2007-11-05 [Jeesum Crowe]: ...Wow, bitchy, much.

2007-11-05 [Delladreing]: Now now children play nice.

2007-11-06 [windowframe]: I'm assuming [Cassave] meant that he was also surprised that *he* got picked, not that [Sturmi] got picked.

2007-11-06 [Elisha Kelly]: Is there going to be a deadline on people to choose their characters? or are we just all waiting until they do?

2007-11-06 [xido]: *sigh* Now I will have to go work on at least three more projects to make up for the inadequacy I feel inside. Don't worry, BR, I'm sure I will get picked on as well. ;)

2007-11-06 [NamelessMerc]: 0.0; Picked? Moi? *Goes all cyber-geek* w00tness! *Reverts* Okay, now that's out of my system, congrats everyone and commiserations to those who didn't make it =[

2007-11-06 [Cassave]: Yes, I was indeed curious why I got to continue 8D

2007-11-06 [Kim_Lundin]: Blood and xido: The three of us can pick on each other XD

2007-11-06 [Jeesum Crowe]: Oh, OK. Sorry, Cassave. I thought you were being openly bitchy. I was all shocked by the raw bitchiness that was abound. But it was not! So I apologize.
