How good of a story for the second question?

Post by Tharburz the vile »

I was wondering how good of a story you have to write to be accepted? I remember like six months to a year ago I tryed to join Illarion but my story was rejected. I thought it was quite good, and I actually spent a few days writing it. One of my friends also tryed and I will admit she is much better at role playing then me, and at writing storys (she is actually extremely good at it) and she got accepted but her computer couldn't really handle it :(. I am better at the more round robbin (sp?) story telling, that is found in the real time role playing. So, I'm at a disadvantage a bit for the story.

Don't ask this question anywhere, it isn't needed. Write the ending to your short story to the best of your ability.

There is no standard quality of storywriting required. Spelling and grammer is a good start. The main page does mention this game is for people 16 and over. I guess generally people of that age have the literary skills required. To my knowlage its quality over quantity.

This is Tharburz. Apparently the name Tharburz was already used in something before, probably in some story or show from a country other then the US (my country). Anyway, I was asking cause I'm just really hoping I don't get rejected.... Again. Anyway, this name was accepted and now I have my story however it's one I think I'm gonna have a tough time with. However, I believe I will spend a few days brain storming and researching the background of the race even more. I always do my bess to use correct spelling, capitalization, punctuation, and grammar so that part shouldn't be a problem.

As I said, my characters name is Shakgriig, and Shakgriig the lonely is his title, not his name.

*edit* Also, I just finished sending in my answers. I think they were pretty darn good and hopefully I will get accepted.
