Question!

Is there a way I can re-do my acceptance? I think I could've done it a lot better after I looked in here and saw some of what you guys said. Mine was only maybe a paragraph and im a little afraid I won't be accepted.

Thanks,
Kyle

Well, the length doesn't matter much just as long as it sounds good, (mines wasn't the greatest just trying to make it short and sweet and good enough to get it accepted) But wait until you get accepted or rejected

Can you create another after they rejected it, because I wasn't really sure what they were asking. So I just kind of wrote like what I'd do in the game. I didn't make it a spectacular story.

Thank you, and how many days is the shortest for a respond, and how long is the longest.

I am kind of eager to play :cry:

It just depends. It can take as early as a day or as long as 2 weeks. Depending on how busy they are.

Mwahahaha...No.

That's not right. You could try a lot of times during the old accountsystem. With the new one you can try twice.

I think it was about 2 days before this post took place that I answered my questions and the short story. but my account doesn't seem to be accepted yet...and no rejected notification yet. I'm not sure if it went through though. Because when I clicked submit it went right back to the login screen. should I fill out the questions again or do you have some record that they went through?

Thanks,
~Rob

And your rateing would tell us what?..
Please leave mod issues to mods as I could see it being rather confuseing for new comers to the community if they were to mistakenly believe you had some say in such matters, or an opinion that held weight.

stories are not placed on this board as it is a test I am certain if we let 15 examples hang around the boards. Some people could cobble togther a pass when they really wouldnt with out that help.
Such has been the opinion expressed in the past about discussing answers or stories any way. So I echo it

Perhaps it was in the two days where the account system had a failure?
Have a look at the news from 16.7. and 17.7. http://illarion.org/general/de_news.php.

Arien will have a look, I think.

If it's still not accepted, you may want to try resending it. Accounts are checked several times a day now. If your account hasn't been accepted within a 24 hour period, something is wrong with us or something is wrong with you. :wink:

haha. I'll try resending it, but would that count for my second time trying to get accepted? and I hope nothing is wrong with me :shock:

It already says that my account was confirmed after I click the link, then I filled out the question and story a second time about an hour ago. Is something wrong with it or am I just completely retarted and doing something wrong? :oops:

I'm going to try an [Professor Frankenstein voice] experiment [/Professor Frankenstein voice].

I'm going to set your account to "1st application rejected." Then try and send your next application.
