Considering that this is about MA you'd think they'd have to sense to tell us HERE where authors who'd care would very likely be looking anyway.

You mean like the World Series?

Yup. That's the one I was referring to.

Huh, well, guess that leaves me...

Oh. Y'know, people, Canada still hasn't been annexed by the US. So 'only open to US residents' is a bit misleading- I was getting all annoyed because I couldn't enter either, given that I'm not a US resident either, but apparently it IS open to Canadians.

Not much comfort to those of you over in the EU, but meh.

It would have to be, 'cause Americans generally don't give a damn about the World Cup.

Isn't that what we use to keep Korea in place?

... in place of what?

Well, I think I managed to wade through the legalese and submit a valid arc... yeesh. Ah, well. Trying for the "Best Enemy Group" with my arc "Small Fears",

(and yes, that was a shameless plug for my arc )

Canadians are skinnier than Americans?

I thought everyone was skinnier than Americans.

Something I'm wondering is if this contest will have a positive effect on how MA developments are handled. Since we aren't just showing them arcs--we're giving them our actual .storyarc files, I'm wondering if it'll help get some of the more blatant MA bugs smoothed out such as the misplaced Back/Middle spawn points, weird mob behavior, and enemies in groups who won't spawn.
