Dolorous Gabe Posted October 30, 2018 Author Share Posted October 30, 2018 I've been warned by Cersei herself that if I don't get an acceptable number of entries I will be swiftly handed over to Qyburn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annara Snow Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Sorry, I had a good idea when I thought I could use additional prepositions and conjunctions, but with these rules, I have no idea how to make anything work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titles don’t often have too many prepositions in the first place, do they? Try taking inspiration from media headlines or business jargon, both tends to discriminate prepositions and proper grammar.

Dolorous Gabe Posted October 30, 2018 Author Share Posted October 30, 2018 Also consider breaking up the letters into title and tag-line/sub-title. Edited to add: Let's make the deadline Friday as Halloween can be busy for many. Let's have all entries in by midday UK time Friday. I can post the entries then and give out the second round assignment. So please try to get your entries completed and in before Friday 2nd November Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhaenysBee Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Most rounds don’t last two weeks though, right? It’s usually much speedier, right? And it doesn’t take more than a couple days, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A round might last between 3 and 5 days depending on when it suits me to come on and do the count and post the next round. I will stick rigidly to the deadline I set but I will accept entries after the deadline at the cost of the point you get for submitting an entry, if that makes sense.

RhaenysBee Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Cool that sounds pretty reasonable. Looking forward to voting . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolorous Gabe Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 Around 12 hours till the deadline. Still hoping for at least two more entries to come in as we only have five.

Dolorous Gabe Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 Happy Friday Acrophobes Sorry I'm a little later than I said, I've had a situation to sort out today. The first round will follow this post. I've made some executive decisions for those who didn't specify. Let me know within 10 minutes if you have a preference. Thankfully, Cersei has deemed 8 entries acceptable. Just. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolorous Gabe Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 PART A ROUND TWO: JON CONNINGTON Jon Connington comes out, alive and very much kicking, from his exile. This is a man with a lot to say and now he is writing a book to tell it all. Such a story needs a great title. What can you come up with that he might choose?

Castellan Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I'm back. Sort of. First time I have looked at the site since dropping out. I believe something in the ether told me Gabe was hosting a game. I can't apologise enough for abandoning last game. Thanks for your concern but I don't have a good reason (eg hospitalisation; eviction; flood), life and its deadlines just overcame me. Some votes: 8. "Cersei" - Devastatingly Fearless 5. Life as Shame Dame 7. Cersei's Dynasty Founded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
