Angel_Grace_Blue Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 So, how much words are you to having? It's kind of hard for me to determine that, as my shitty version of word pad doesn't have that feature, and the website I use counts spaces as words, but not solitary words on seperate lines. This means that if I put two spaces after a period, that becomes two words, but something like: Dolphins! Midget! Apple. Are not counted at all, and I would add them up manually for the final total. So, I've found a new site that seems to do a decent job, and I think it said around 1.2k Still a bit more for me to go. Wheeee~!
muzz Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 I have around 2,500, and I think I'll aim for around six or seven thousand. Honestly, I really doubt I'll beat Mag with it. I guess it's a case of too much too soon, and the title shot just seemed too daunting, and in the end I've been too inactive to really get into the swing of things.
Cuban Linx Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 Take a wild guess. Fake Edit: If you guessed 0, you win. Really not much of a comedy writer, particularly the sort of WACKY humor that's generally prevailent in the SWF and a match like this is designed for. I'll probably throw together a thousand words of mass incoherant retardation and see how things go anyway, i can't pass up the opportunity to write against An Octopus at the very least.
Bruce Blank Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 I'm in the ballpark of 5000 words or so - and there are a few locations in the hockey arena that we've yet to visit. so lord knows where I'll end up (number wise, location wise I know where it'll end up )
Bruce Blank Posted March 14, 2006 Report Posted March 14, 2006 Well I'm done writing and not a moment too soon as my "match writing window" closes in about 2 hours. So no "late night sit until 4 AM" marathon session for me (with the time difference the deadlines usually fall around 2-6 AM for me) and the final count? I'm actually 700 words of what I originally estimated the match would last (I guess 7 years of estimating has finally paid off) and that's all I'll say for now
JHawk Posted March 14, 2006 Report Posted March 14, 2006 I'm topping out at about 6,000 for the second PPV in a row. I hope it beats WC's match as I think it's pretty good, particularly the second half, but WC's awesome so I dunno.
Guest OKCoyote Posted March 14, 2006 Report Posted March 14, 2006 I don't plan on checking until it's done, as I don't wish to disappoint myself.
Guest OKCoyote Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 In at a too short 4200 words, but it gets the job done. If I had more time it'd be longer, but it doesn't need to be.
Angel_Grace_Blue Posted March 15, 2006 Author Report Posted March 15, 2006 Final count: 5182 or so. A large chunk of that was a research paper I wrote for my college world lit class. Huzzah me!
muzz Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 10,610 and in. Well, that's about 4000 more words than I managed to cobble together in a hurry. And knowing you, that's 4k more words of quality. *Muzz right hand's ELM through 489262469211249876 flaming tables*
