Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge: Week Twenty-One

Zoe M. Scrivener · **Posted:** August 19th, 2012, 4:02 pm

Your challenge this week is to write a minimum 500 word article on warfare in your world.

As always...

The Rules wrote:

1. All challenges must be declared completed by midnight Saturday in your timezone (please specify your timezone when you sign up).
2. All challenges (personal or weekly) must be declared by midnight Monday in your timezone.
3. Personal challenges cannot be repeated.
4. The organizer reserves the right to veto any challenges that seem too simple. (i.e. writing a sentence)

If this is your first time on one of these quests, you'll need to see the initiation pamphlet.

Also, I would like to remind everyone that any weekly challenge pieces that are posted on the forum will be eligible to be featured in our newsletter. Please post a link in this thread if you would like it to be considered.

If you could write your sign-up post in a similar format to the following, it would be appreciated:
Goal: weekly challenge (or whatever you decide to do)
Timezone: PDT

Go!!!! *shoots off fireworks*

Goal: Worldbuilding article on Nalycian Court Procedure and Etiquette, fill in 7 plot gaps in TKB.
Timezone: PDT

Now, my question is, if my personal goal was only the worldbuilding article, I would get extra points because it overlaps with the weekly goal. However, I have another part to my goal, so the goal isn't strictly worldbuilding. So do I get the extra points or no? What do you say?

PrincessoftheKing · **Posted:** August 19th, 2012, 5:03 pm

Goal: Weekly Challenge
Timezone: EST

Rachel Newhouse · **Posted:** August 19th, 2012, 5:21 pm

I think you should still get the extra points, Zoe, as long as you complete both parts of your goal.

Technically my goal this week is to finish editing Peter's Angel in its entirety.

But to be safe I'm gonna stick with a time goal for this:

Goal: Log at least 24 hours editing Peter's Angel
Timezone: CST

Constable Jaynin Mimetes · **Posted:** August 19th, 2012, 6:40 pm

Playing it safe this time around.

Personal goal: Finish Nanowrimo this week
Time Zone: CDT

Politician de Paz · **Posted:** August 19th, 2012, 7:52 pm

Goal: write at least two chapters in The Singer
Time Zone: EST

RunningWolf · **Posted:** August 19th, 2012, 10:04 pm

@Raven - I always thought the point was that your personal goal overlap with the weekly challenge, not that it consist of it entirely or be extremely closely connected...I think you get the points.

*loves the weekly goal for this week*

Weekly challenge
Personal goal: Post another thread on my subforum.

Okay I have a question...

Is this limited to warfare in your world as a whole, or is it anything to do with warfare (within reason)? Like, can I do an article on the fighting style and weapons (or one or the other) of a certain race?

Aratrea · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 6:17 am

Personal Challenge: Do a Character Fractal for Jacob
Timezone: EST

Lady Katharina · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 6:45 am

Personal goal: Rewrite/edit/research 1 chapter of WIP
Time Zone: CDT

I will try to get this done and reported by Friday morning, but as of Friday morning I will not have access to a computer until late Sunday.

Zoe M. Scrivener · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 11:56 am

Katie and Aubrey: Safe? What is this safe you speak of? There is no safe when you are dealing with the Procrastination Dragon.

Wolfgang: Anytime the goal is like this week's, you can write anything you want on that subject.

RunningWolf · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 12:20 pm

Okay, thanks!

AzlynRose · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 1:23 pm

I think I'll try this weekly goal.

Goal: Weekly Challenge
Personal Goal: Write 1k of World-Building including weekly challenge (does that count for the extra points?)
Personal Goal 2: 1k in Jenimi's Character Fractal

Rachel Newhouse · **Posted:** August 20th, 2012, 2:05 pm

Well, maybe it's safe because if I set a goal I know I'll clear earlier in the week, I'll have more time to report it, so hopefully I'll be less likely to forget.

Sounds safer to me.

Constable Jaynin Mimetes · **Posted:** August 21st, 2012, 1:47 pm

Personal goal complete.

RunningWolf · **Posted:** August 21st, 2012, 3:06 pm

Personal goal complete.

Lady Katharina · **Posted:** August 23rd, 2012, 6:48 am

I finished my personal goal! (I am really glad for kids who went to bed easily so I could write while I babysat

)

Yay! I'm glad that worked out.

Weekly goal finished!

Rachel Newhouse · **Posted:** August 23rd, 2012, 12:02 pm

Oh, that's delightful!

Mistress Kidh · **Posted:** August 24th, 2012, 11:43 am

Iff'n you are just doing the weekly challenge, not the personal one, can you enter any time during the week?

Zoe M. Scrivener · **Posted:** August 24th, 2012, 12:05 pm

*desperately needs to clarify the rules* *will do that pronto*

Unfortunately, goals of any kind need to be declared by midnight Monday. However, the week is almost over, and we'd love to have you join us next week!

AzlynRose · **Posted:** August 24th, 2012, 1:07 pm

Completed all my goals.

Mistress Kidh · **Posted:** August 24th, 2012, 2:04 pm

I thought so, but I just was wondering. I was poking around and did the goal for fun. I think I sort of have an obsession with doing obsolete challenges....

Politician de Paz · **Posted:** August 24th, 2012, 5:38 pm

My personal goal has been accomplished.

RunningWolf · **Posted:** August 24th, 2012, 7:06 pm

Got the weekly goal done again.

Aratrea · **Posted:** August 25th, 2012, 4:09 pm

Weekly and personal goal done... barely...

RunningWolf · **Posted:** August 25th, 2012, 4:16 pm

Good job guys!

Zoe M. Scrivener · **Posted:** August 25th, 2012, 8:00 pm

*huffpuff* Done!

Rachel Newhouse · **Posted:** August 25th, 2012, 8:18 pm

Eep! Thanks for the reminder, mon Zoe.

I well exceeded my goal.

PrincessoftheKing · **Posted:** August 25th, 2012, 9:02 pm

So, not making the goal is a good way to start my quest to defeat the procrastination dragon... not.

This week turned out a little busier than expected; hopefully I can make up for it next week!

RunningWolf · **Posted:** August 25th, 2012, 9:08 pm

Good job Zoe and Aubreyness!

Aw.

Hopefully next week your battle goes better Abby!

Zoe M. Scrivener · **Posted:** August 26th, 2012, 4:31 pm

Week twenty-one is now complete. Great job everyone.

*procrastination dragon reels in pain*
