Re: The King of the Forums Contest 2009
=.= Neo, let's not. Just... no. Did you sleep at all during that entire month...? Geh... Well, like last year, half way through this thing I'm going to be in a majr musical. So... don't know how actively I'll be able to participate until after April 5...
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Well, this will be the third year. The first year things go extremely busy. Like, hundreds of posts a day. Last year was still a lot busier than normal, but nowhere near that level. If you want a better idea, you can check out the threads for previous years in this section and take a look at the point totals for the winners.Phonox wrote:Wait, how active does PVF become during this contest?

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.
So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*
Re: The King of the Forums Contest 2009
Nope, starts tomorrow. Even though it may be sunday for a few, the date still says it's the 14.

Hm? Oh, goshdarnit. Not that I was even trying or anything.

Re: The King of the Forums Contest 2009
First day of the contest! Since I have the day off, I'm probably going to go post-happy 
Okay, this was really weird, but I actually had a dream about the contest (probably because the only time I managed to check the site was before bed). Neo had accumulated 700 posts in the first day, in the morning. Premonition? Probably not...I hope.

Re: The King of the Forums Contest 2009
Gah. If anyone manages 700 posts in just one morning, I'm giving up.

Re: The King of the Forums Contest 2009
I don't think I'll be putting quite that much effort into this.
I'll just go and recruit all o' me buds. :D

Hey, shouldn't posts such as "Point" be discarded and not counted?
Just wanted to make sure.
