Personally I don't disagree. Not sure if a whole week is necessary but having another weekend certainly wouldn't hurt. I'll wait for a few more opinions before deciding.
And don't worry Ouro it's not like I did that much either.

I cast my vote for a 1-week extension; in the hallow'd wordf of Gabe the Novel, "These things, they take time."

It only took 3 days to decide the pairs, so I think if we push the deadline it should be 3 days. A week seems like overkill.
That's probably a good idea.

Oh yeah. I don't have to write a bunch till the dead of night tonight.

Psst. You're late.

This is semantics, and nothing more
Actually, has that threesome made much progress? If not, what about splitting it into two twosomes? Nezumi?
Oh, is the competition no longer available for soloing?
I wasn't planning on grouping. I thought that's how people were signing up, wasn't really paying attention.

Definitely still open to solos. Not sure if Nezumi would permit new teams.
We already split the threesome in two teams of two as far as I know. So there are currently no possibilties for partnering up left (pushing a third member in a group at this point would not work)
The secondary is optional however so everyone feel free to write stories even without a partner. Should another person show up that's interested in the secondary, you can consider partnering up but should realize that you might run into time problems.

Here we go
Still totally optional! Sometimes the more unusual ones, like this one, take up a lot of discussion space. No need to worry about it if you're not into it.
I think Tangent and I are just about ready. There's something very work ethic-inducing about being on a Google Doc with another person, where they can see if you're not doing anything!
I hope we're not the only ones to take advantage of the double word count, or we're gonna look like jerks!

No worries. Me and Metaphoreus got a whopper too. And yeah, joint google doc editing is weirdly fun. It's really helpful having a second set of eyes reading through.

Darkness at the Centre of Town
Usual password, about 4,000 words. By Sethista and I. If nothing else, we have the most literal interpretation of the theme in the bag.

Wordcount: 2500
By: Me.
Really feel like I rushed this, but that's a byproduct of the ideas being larger than the limit. :X

OK people! I'm not gonna close submissions just yet, but it would be good to know which of the pairs who haven't posted their stories until now are still planning to do so? I'm rather certain about Mike and Blargonaut. But what about Sober/Valhelm and besada/timetokill? You guys still at it or have you given up somewhere along the way?

Some great entries so far though. :>
No worries! I'm gonna head out to go swimming now. This will at least take two hours. So everyone just imagine the grace period to be especially gracious today
Just waiting on Blargonaut's copy, and then I get to do my formatting to do the gimmick that I came up with for this project, and then we'll be gold : )
