Hope you don't think I'm being a nuicance, but according to my records, I have only used 3 skips not 4. I skipped round 2 because I ran out of time, and had to skip rounds 3 and 4 because of ilness. Please can you check? Thank you

[x_erikah_x]

I think these skips are all wrong. I keep losing count and sometimes count the same one twice. Sorry about that. I'll fix it in my files.

Could you give more specific parameters for a "five things" challenge? I've never done one. Just read the results.

[x_erikah_x]

There aren't any parameters really. You just need to make sure that the five things are clear, usually by putting subtitles in each section.

For example:

Five patients that annoy Dr. Keller

i. Rodney McKay

Part about Rodney.

ii. John Sheppard

Part about John.

And so on.

Thanks...kind of what I thought, but helps to see it in black and white...

darn, that's a good story idea...somehow I think it's already been written, maybe more than a few times! Guess I'll have to think of something else.

Thanks!!!

[x_erikah_x]

It took me a few seconds to think about half a dozen ideas. xD It's fun.

[stella_pegasi]

I'm with maddie_amber; I have read 'five things' posts, but not sure if there are rules of the road for them. Any enlightenment would be appreciated. I realize they appear to be self-explanatory. However, LJ has taught me that things are never what they appear.

Thanks.

I agree with maddi and stella. Seems a little vague, but maybe that's the joy of it? Still, would hate to be off the mark. Think this round's gonna be exciting!

[cedargrove]

Can I be number 4 to need guidance?

[maddie_amber]

Thanks. That's what I thought I just wanted to make sure.

I'm totally disappointed because I have a fun idea for this round, but I'm going to have to use a skip, I just haven't had time to get it all written yet (family visiting from out of town stealing all my writing time :( )

[x_erikah_x]

I'm going to have to extend the deadline again.

[rangerbaldwin]

I can have mine done by the 16th. Extension once again appreciated! Will mail it tonight, in fact!
