I WANT ENTER

Both signed!

There are ten days before the contest starts. I'm pretty happy with the list of entrants we've got so far. Is anybody else interested?

I've selected the topic - there'll only be one this time around, but it's pretty workable.

My now-unofficial countdown script reads a little less than 10 days and 20 hours, if I have it set right.

The god of fortune has favored me the weekend off. So it guarantee that I'll be on top of it. Hopefully this time I won't pull out before I reach the climax.

...

You know what I mean.

Jur is signed. Appliance and (com)buster both signed up by e-mail yesterday.

Six days left! The topic's selected, and I count 25 entrants. Pretty good!

I sign up. The time's available so it all comes down to whether or not I can come up with anything.

Hey Madtom, what is your avatar from?

Post by **MadTom** » Mon Jan 08, 2007 5:30 am

It's Slick from Sinfest. The original strip is here: http://www.sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=2189

Looks like I misquoted it in my member rank, too. :(

The contest starts on Friday the 12th, 5pm, EST. If you live in another time zone, you'll need to check what time the contest starts for you. I use http://www.timezoneconverter.com/.

I want to make sure that all of you read the rules. There are a few small changes from the past few contests. Note in particular that you can submit on this page only, and that there is no grace period. You should plan to submit at least an hour early. If you e-mail me an entry, I'll just redirect you to that page.

Dron signed up today.

I just realized two things:
1. My countdown clock is off.
2. There is an Australia EST and a North America EST.

Like anybody in Australia even knows what ZZT is
