Just to check, mine did make it across the great internet gap into your inbox, yes? I'd rather not be disqualified due to connection failure :D

If it's not in your Outbox section, but in your Sent Items section, then DML has opened the PM and you can be sure it's submitted.

Of course, if it's in neither the Outbox nor the Sent Items, then you'll probably want to re-submit.

Also:
Two hours remain!

Right, think I'm done. Reading it back, it seems I've made the same mistake I always make when I'm writing stuff of making it far too... clinical. I'm not hopeful for this round. Hopefully I can pull something great out of the bag next time :shifty:

Should finish on time. I find it funny how this competition has led to me playing 12 hours of the Playstation's greatest JRPG. (And no, it's not a Final Fantasy Game.)

So paranoid about having gone over. Three different text editors say I'm under the word limit. None of them can agree on what the actual total is, but they all say I'm under 550. Ah the fear. :(

I'd like to think that DML is nice enough not to penalize people for a few words either way.

Unless those words are Portsmouth, Administration, and LOL.

Dont fret, I as your Captain, used one Word Processor and stand by it's word count. If different programs count funny, so be it. Whatever program you used you were within the limit. Be true to that. :)
