Does this still apply with regard to those who managed to meet the original deadline ...?

Hmm... We seem to have come to an interesting point...

Mount Zoom = Not Done

Bag Endless-fuel = Done - Horse eating men helped out

Orth-Tank = Done - Narrator convinced to change the plot


Barad-Dash = Not done

Medul-zoom = Not done

Minas Mor-go = Done - Horses turned into Horse wraiths.

Minas Taxi = Not Done


3 are done, yet 4 are not.

So, people, what do we do? I don't want to extend the deadline any further, but if I don't then, I'm afraid, Barrad Dash will be disqualified for failing to complete the last 4 challenges.

Well, as Driver of Minas Taxi, I say extend to us the punishment we deserve... Sure, it was a busy weekend... but rules is rules. If I stand for solid deadlines when they suit me, I stand by them when they don't.

Hey guys, I'm back. I know this is late, but I'm working on a post for the latest challenge, if you'll allow me to ignore the deadline. I just got back on Monday, and I didn't think to look online until tonight. But I'll post if I can, and it'll be within the half-hour.


EDITED POST! Now the horses are gone and we're heading northwest.

End of Voting.

Okay, lets look at the results before we get onto the next challenge.

MOUNT ZOOM = 2

Bag-Endlessfule = 3

Orth-Tank = 7

Barad-Dash = 0

Medel-zoom = 0

Minas Mor-go = 0

Minas Taxi = 0

So, Orth Tank goes off a little more! Wee!
