Contact-a-Mod

Hello all,

I hope everyone had a fantastic day.

We're introducing a new feature here to allow you to contact the Mods. It's difficult with having multiple mods to receive questions and answer them in a timely manor because we all do mod posts. So what we've done is created another, shadow mod.

Any comments on posts made by this shadow mod will be forwarded to all of us, so we can answer things more quickly.

We're also going to try to start doing mod posts with this user account as well, and post a link to this post on the sidebar so you can contact us easily.

It's a new system, so there's bound to be some bumps with it, but hopefully it will make things easier in the long run.

~Your tamingmods!

Hello from another one of the mods! *waves* Welcome!

On your chapter question, the plot can be seen as anything from the original plot is continuing, the characters have discovered something, the characters move from one place to another to build up the plot that's going to really get going in a few chapters...anything that really adds to the original idea and keeps you interested, to me, would be something I'd look for when I vote.

And those with long runs...there's quite a few who've hit past the 30 week mark, which is goddess. A few more have reached the 75 week mark, which is where you get to add a prompt of your own to the list, and it'll be done the following week. The latest one is the 104 week mark, which is the 2 year mark. I've been here, with quite a few others, from the beginning of the comm. I know of a lot of courageous writers who've been here for many many weeks, but have taken breaks to earn the awards each week.

Many of the writers will also just take personal breaks, if they need to. You're allowed to step out and jump back in whenever. Obviously the more weeks in a row you get, the higher the reward, but sometimes, RL insists on having its way. ^_^

Take a peek at the goings-on for the next few weeks, and feel free to jump in whenever. The new prompt will be chosen tonight (we try to post earlier on Saturdays because while I'm over in the USA, a lot of our members are 'cross the pond), and you'll be able to see the entires added in over the week. ...Most everyone posts late on Saturday. Like me. *sheepish grin* Which is totally acceptable, as the wonderful Calypso explained.

If you've got any more questions, feel free to ask. ^_^

Sounds great. Thanks for being so welcoming :) I'm going to lurk and read for a bit and then I hope to join in!
