| Laundress Extraordinaire  | Re: Discussion -- 75 Word Challenge -- May Thank you to everyone who mentioned my story. Couldnt say it before but I have been kicking my self all month for writing and posting while sick because I left out the genre completely! That said, I love what I wrote and wouldnt unwrite it for the world (just would have posted something else is all). Well done everyone and Congratulations TSP, also a big thanks for letting me do the comments, sorry I didnt finish this round, I promise to be better next time.  |

| Dramatically tremendous  | Re: Discussion -- 75 Word Challenge -- May Well done TSP, out of the blocks like lightning. I thought for a moment the power of Handwavium was going to catch you, though! And thanks for the mention, Scott. Last edited by springs; 29th May 2012 at 08:37 AM. Reason: forgot my manners. |

| Truth. Order. Moderation.  | Re: Discussion -- 75 Word Challenge -- May Congratulations, oh platypus one! I didn't do a short list as I was running out of time last night, but after a great deal of thought I voted for Glitch's story which best captured the science fantasy aspect that, for me, being pernickity as usual, seemed to have been lost in a lot of otherwise very good pieces. Thanks for the shortlistings, Boneman and choccoweeble! |

| Re: Discussion -- 75 Word Challenge -- May Congrats Spurring. Have been busy at work and didn't spot the deadline. I would gave gone for Karn M so it wouldn't have changed the result. Thanks for the mentions. |

| resident pedantissimo  | Re: Discussion -- 75 Word Challenge -- May Congratulations, and keep right on spurring! (that does refer to the males' poisoned spike on the hind foot, doesn't it? How strange a species not only to be the only naturally venomous mammal, but restrict it to the males…) And this idea, which I suspect I could have cut down to fifty words rather than trying to wrestle the other one down from over two hundred, came to me after having posted… Everywhen suffers from prejudice “You are no longer to call it ‘black magic’; that could be offensive to two groups. Instead, now it’s ‘magic of colour’,” intoned the professor.“Isn’t that like calling seawater ‘wet water’?” asked a pupil. “There was a move to standardise, and use ‘Afro-American magic’, but this was held to refer uniquely to Voudoun. However, any specifically beneficial magic will herafter be referred to as ‘honkie magic’…” |
