Seriously?

Cam I ask Mark - why do you think no-one bothers to enter your competitions? Its becuase youve got on everybodys nerves and f***** up real bad on your first tourny - that word with stars on is the only word that can be properly used in this situation, as you didnt write them well, entered other robots without permission and wrote your own competition as a follow-up to Liams Challenge Belt, a tornument which I rather enjoyed.

That and your fights are DIABOLICAL! Try to stretch them out a bit, something like 230-400 words are good for fights that go on a bit, 100-230 words for shorter ones and 100- words are for REALLY short fights. The advantage of longer battles is that you can fit so much more detail in, and that is what I found out that people were after - theres no point in writing a big long fight like Kody and Martjn and Matty and AJ and Richard do (or in Richards case did :sad, because detail is what is really important. What happens also helps makes your fights good, but you need to get a balance between detail and events to write good fights.

What I would do is not open another tournument until youve practiced writing battles and made your reputation better. OK?

Use the How To Improve... thread to send in battles and take advice to make them better.

I agree Mark should not open another tourny for a while, but he does have what he asked for- Serious entries!

On a brighter note, glad you enjoyed it Paul!
