Sorry!

Sorry for the delay in validations lately! All the mods are a tad busy these days, so chapters may take a little longer to make it through. Just be patient, please. Your chapter will be validated soon enough, I promise!

-- Savannah

Adding to that, it would be SO SO SO much easier for us to get through the submissions quickly if some of you guys took the time to follow the submission rules when submitting. Please? For the sake of our sanity? =P

-j3nn

Please only submit -one- chapter at a time. More than one story is fine, but only -ONE- chapter.

It makes our lives so much easier when you even just follow that rule. It's really the one I find I have to reject for most often. On a side note, a big thanks to everyone who is following the rules and making validation move smoothly.

~ Iris

We'd also REALLY appreciate it if you guys submitted your stories in only one catagory. Please choose the one that fits best. Again, thanks so much to eveyone who is listening and following the rules. It helps us validate your stories quicker :)

You're right, as far as I know.

- Savannah_Cullen on 11 Apr 2009 04:20 PM

Iris has her computer access restricted for the summer, and is able to come on to validate few and far between :(

i miss you guys :(

Hi! No offense but I posted a chapter yesterday and a new one today. Nether of them have been validated yet so does that mean that they will be counted as being submitted on the same day???

- Loch Ness Werewolf on 19 Apr 2009 05:32 PM

yes, that counts. you have to wait until your previous chapter has been validated before submitting a new one. until you get the validation e-mail, do not submit a new chapter.

other mods, correct me if i'm wrong here.

- Iris Messenger on 20 Apr 2009 08:47 AM

I know I've been guilty of the more-than-one-chapter thing at least once--many sorries about that!

- aia4077 on 20 Apr 2009 09:45 AM

Umm no offense again but my third chapter is 2,229 words long and I didn't save it on word. No offense again but alot of my friends want it updated and I really don't want to lose all my info for both chapters. Is there a way you could not reject them? Sorry if i'm asking for too much but it frustrates me that no one told anyone that it would be counted like that. Maybe you should add that under requirments.

- Loch Ness Werewolf on 20 Apr 2009 05:06 PM

I'm sorry, but there probably won't be any exceptions to this rule. Try to copy and save it to a word document. There were also previous posts that specifically addressed this problem, and if I'm not mistaken, it's already stated under fanfic requirements.

- black2red on 20 Apr 2009 06:40 PM

sorry i'm a newer member. I didn't see that. Thankfully before they were rejected i copy and pasted. Thanks for the tip though!

- Loch Ness Werewolf on 21 Apr 2009 11:45 AM

Hello again! I was wondering if you hadn't waited the 24 hour thing and you submitted a chapter that was kind of like the one rejected but not the same and it had a different name would that count as resubmitting before the 24 hour thing?

Also, how many people run this site? Just Curious. Oh yeah! How long does it take before you're put on the beta list after commenting, or do u not get put on?

- Loch Ness Werewolf on 21 Apr 2009 04:40 PM

Sorry again...I forgot to ask how long it takes to validate and how long do u have to be a member or how many stories do u have to have before you can post chapters without having to have them validated because no offense but it seems like it takes foorevvvver. Sorry for complaining. Don't even listen to me. It's a stupid question.

- Loch Ness Werewolf on 21 Apr 2009 05:19 PM

Lol okay, take it easy :)

As long as the chapter submitted is under a different story title, then you can submit it within 24 hours of submitting a rejected chapter from another story... Basically: Only submit one chapter at a time. More than one story is fine, but only single chapters may be submitted at a time.You must wait at least 24 hours before resubmitting a rejected piece. This is merely for my sanity and to give you all more time to revise.

Six people run this site, however, Kaiwynn is the orignal Mod that started it.

Anything from validations to applications depend on Kaiwynn and the admins. I can't give you an exact time limit, however.

Finally, the submission rule is in effect for eveyone, no matter their status, reputation, or the length of time they've been a member.

If there's anything else, please comment.

- black2red on 21 Apr 2009 05:40 PM

thanks for listening to my dumb questions. Sorry if I bothered you

- Loch Ness Werewolf on 21 Apr 2009 05:52 PM

We should all worship Kaiwynn for making a great website that we can write stuff about twilight on. I'm so sad that to me, she is a hero.
