In Round 2 you mentioned that the hero costume doesn't have to be a permanent choice, correct? This means that Kylara can change back into her own clothes when she gets back to her own time?

Absolutely! The poor girl should change as soon as she gets the first opportunity! Poor Kylara.

I doubt I can get this in, within the 5 days required so I will get the ending in as soon as I can Probably a week and a half. My best friend was over for a surprise visit from Australia and needed to do my art history book since end of term is very soon!!!

Gah!! When did it get to only 5 days left?! O_O I thought I was doing well but my first attempt was at 3200 words and I still hadn't got to final showdown!! I was just going round in circles trying to figure out what to cut and how to shorten the ending until hubby gave me a different idea (still same ending, just different setting/build-up) so now I'm 1500 words into my second attempt and hopefully the finale will start to poke over the horizon about the 2000 word mark *crosses fingers to the point of ciculation being cut off*

Oh gosh, five days?

>< I'm at 1564 words and 13 photos with the final showdown already done. All I need is my epilogue but I just can't bring myself to open that save and take the photos I need!

It'll get done, I swear it. I just hope I get it done on time (and remember to bold the appropriate quotes this time. Stupid brain).

Things got hectic here. (By the way, I'm inviting everybody to drop by Custom Sims 3. I just ended up accepting the position of Admin over there. )I've got a bit of ending written, and a bit of the middle of the chapter, and about half of the scene with the antagonist, and nothing at all tying anything together. And a pair of sims who get bored just standing in the scene where I put them, so one wanders off while I'm getting the other one back, which might help if they would at least do something that I could work into the story. But somehow I'm having trouble figuring out why a grown man would be playing hopscotch. I got it because Kylara wanted it, and I thought she deserved a reward. But everybody else plays with it more than she does. (And my husband likes playing on Normal lifespan, so I got a surprise birthday in the middle of an otherwise good shot...) I'm hoping that I will be able to play again on Wednesday and get some more done.

If we get an extension I won't work on it at all. >< The more time I get, the less enthusiasm I have for a project. I think that's why this has been the hardest round for me.

Life just handed me a big plate of stress. I hope to still get the chapter done - if nothing else, it might be a good distraction - but this is just warning in case I can't.

Heaven, when we post the word/photo count for this round do we need to separate the count for the bonus from the main story or should we combine them for a total count?

Just combine the total. However, the bonus should be -clear-; the judges should not have to hunt for it. If they feel that you were not able to properly complete it, you are at risk of having points marked off for word counts as well as missing out on the bonus points. Make it good.

I am really gutted, for one my game is stupid two, life is really demanding right now and 3 school is so full on. So this chapter has no pictures. I really wanted to beat Cece so we knew who was the best after all.... HAIL QUEEN CECE!!!!! I love you woman the best competition I ever had. Thank you to Heaven and all the judges also for having to go through all my mess I call writing. Also my spell check does not work on open office for some reason, I just noticed when I read the comments. So sorry for that also.

and so it is the end!

Has words. Not cleaned up. Has four pictures. Hopefully will get more tomorrow morning (it's just after midnight for me now). Had something more coherent to say, but it's gone? *zombie*

Oh! Questions? Exactly how much swearing is acceptable? There's a bit of anger floating around this chapter, and the f-word gets thrown out a few times. Is that okay?

And second question. Every quote fit my story line. So I, um, used all of them. Should I just highlight the first instance for marking purposes?

Summary: After being betrayed by her long time lover, Juliette Johnson finds herself alone and a prisoner for the organization she used to work for. Or perhaps, not as alone as she thinks thanks to a hasty rescue by her young partner, Denebola. However once free Juliette would take no more help, insisting facing their organization’s leader would be too dangerous, and heads off on her own, fighting her way through old allies before finally coming face-to-face with the big bad himself, Joshua Jacobs.

Kylara was adopted by the ghost of Lord Alfric in a blood ceremony which caused her to become transformed into his actual daughter. He then revealed that her teacher was planning to use her class to retrieve a magical device, and took her back in time to rescue his past self from the trap that (Professor) Greymane had caught him in. She rescued him, and learned that while he is half elven, he was raised by demons, (which explains his lack of "people skills") and that Greymane is actually his brother. She also learned that the reason he used the ceremony was because he wanted to be able to have a relationship with someone else who wouldn't die. But Greymane is still after the artifact, and they still need to stop him.



*Note: I'm having to use octagrams, because it is impossible to draw a smooth pentagram in Sims. This has nothing to do with Discworld's magical 8s.

I'm so sorry for asking, but I don't think I'll be able finish in three hours. I'll take a point deduction for a small extension, if I may be so bold... I'm so close, so very close. Procrastination-ville is such a cut throat town.

Default Chapter Five
I didn't get an answer to my questions in time, so I just went with highlighting the first used quote (have fun finding the others?). Hope it's okay. This chapter is messy as, but it's done.

Summary: The fires raging uncontained around Sunset Valley have been a mix of natural and not. Zoe, with a secret affinity for fire, tried to run away. Instead she found the arsonist, the fire chief's daughter, and is now surrounded by flames with her best friend's (and Jill's) life at stake.
