ok then. i will send you an aplication sometime before jan 1st.

Will Call sounds like my type of thing...

bump...I got 5 apps so far for writers and all have been great, as well as one request for a side editor. Keep 'em coming folks, make it hard on me!

I submitted mine, hope you got the e-mail.

Yes, I did. I need moar!!!

We'd need to find a niche that hasn't, or won't be covered by people more competent than us.

That's pretty much my problem right now. Other than insulting people and taking the path Robert Frost didn't even see 'cause it looked more like a sewage pipe, not much anything else I can do.

I like sewage pipes.

Hum! I'm certainly interested in flexing my writing muscles again, and I love to talk UFS. I think I'll shoot you an application. Not sure if I'm particularly well-suited to talk about that much, though, to be quite honest.

Heh. And as I tend to think and write better in the late evening (like, say...now-ish!) and am always up late, I would probably be able to consistently crank something out. And yet the people who I'd think are far better qualified for this sort of thing don't have the time. Guess my candidacy will depend on the quality of my application and whether or not you're willing to Settle for Second Best (I'll try to keep the bad puns to a minimum, I swear xD).

APPLICATION SUBMITTED.

=D

I didn't submit anything. While a good idea, it just wasn't viable in the long run, and I've kind of dropped off the stupid combo wagon for now.

I just got my application sent into you.

with my busy schedule i failed to get my aplication in. maybe next time.

After a few problems, I finally managed to send out my application. I'm aware it's a day late, but I do very much still want to write for this, if the offer stands of course

I'm extending this because I may have to postpone the sight laucnch anyway, plus I have yet to respond to Daniel as far as co-editing. So the more apps the better....keep sending them in!

Any indications on who is going to be accepted into your website, or should the people be expecting emails from you Vic? The reason that I ask is that I wish to come up with more material, but I want to know if it's worth my effort.

I enjoy UFS, and I enjoy writing.

I'll drop an application in, even if it is late.

Woot for extended deadlines. I have taken a bit of a hiatus from UFS in the last month or so. Outside of hosting the odd tournament. I have an old article that I wrote for the defunct cardboarddojo that I believe I will submit as the sample. I'm pretty sure it has 1000 words. Does sample card text count as words if I include 200 cards? Kidding.

I'm seeking writers over on TCO as well. For the last couple of weeks I've offered a prize for best article not written by me. So far no one's chosen to submit anything. More information about it can be found here . But I will happily take content.

<Please note, this is not to distract from Vik's site, as Vik and I have already exchanged emails and will be linking sites when his site goes live.>

O. Can I send you the rather long article I sent Vic (for my writing sample) as a contest entry, then?

Feel free to submit it, I'll double check with Vik if he'd rather exclusive rights to things that were submitted to him first.

I registered at TCO, and then clicked the "Submit Article" link, but I don't think it let me enter anything other than the introductory paragraph =/

MegaGeese said:

I see that you put most of it in the intro section.

Try submitting again, but put it all in the main body. I'll take care of the intros.

Article resubmitted. I hope you enjoy it, whether it gets chosen for the site or not.

MegaGeese said:

It's solid stuff. We certainly need more content like this for UFS.

As soon as I've confirmed with Vik whether or not he's using it, I'll be publishing it accordingly.

I just sent the one that I sent to Vik into you. If Vik is going to use the one I sent to him, just hit me back and I can write one for your site, since I have a couple other ideas for articles as well. If both of you would like to use it, I'm fine with that too.
