why did this end? I have waited and waited for the next challenge so that I may be apart of the fun but it has not come...should I write one in here of my own? I really thought this would be fun, why did it end?

Yeah, why don't you? I never saw this thread, and now that I have, I want to partake in it. Sounds like fun.

Humm this reminds me of the challenge thread what happened to that and are people still having cold showers?

I want to challenge everyone to vote on the short story competition. I know I haven't voted yet but there are two really good stories and it's a hard choice. It only takes a few minutes to read them and the VOTE! (I'm going to go vote right now)

This is a pretty good challenge if I do say so myself!
OK, MH, I've put it off long enough. I am now going to read the stories and I will cast my vote.
What Are You Crazy!!!
Ok...Well I shall issue a challenge for tomorrow then and until Lily or Anza resumes I (or if someone else wants to do it) will try, emphasis on try, to post a challenge everyday. Ok? Does that work for everyone?
Tomorrow's challenge:
Make a new friend on litnet! Either introduce yourself to a newbie in the Introductions threads or send a PM to someone you don't know- be nice to someone, brighten their day and don't let the friendship end as the day does!

OK- I'm going to go talk to strangers now!
is everyone making friends?
What is the next challenge?
next challenge- post a post about this thread in your blog (or create a blog if you don't have one)- call more to arms!

Took me a while to read this right... Everytime I read "post a post" I got confused for some reason!So basically we just have to spread the word via our blog about this thread? To recruit more people? Sounds pretty easy!

AdoreroDio, this stopped because there was weirdness going on at home... see my blog. You are newly in charge of the efforts, here. The thread is yours. I will be posting ideas at my blog under the category of "revive Litnet"
Thank you so much for your support.
If it's worth complaining about, it's completely worth doing yourself!
An excellent action to take would be to increase the maximum length for stories in the short story contest to 4000 or 5000 words. 2000 words, the present limit, is almost enough to get started with.

*salutes* right-e-o captain. Thanks and your welcome- just doing my duty.![]()
To Peter- The challenges are things everyone can do- we have no sway in the word lengths for the short story contests- sorry.
I have a question for everyone- seeing as new ideas will at some point become hard to come up with everyday I was wondering what you thought to a bi-daily challenge meaning one challenge every two days. This would also help those litnetters who want to participate but aren't on every day. Please give me a yes or no and as soon as I have a group consensus I will begin or not begin to do this only once every two days. Thanks!
Also, I will post the challenges in green and bold so that you can see them easily.

I'm basically saying what Anza says in her blog-
Litnet allows you to rate blogs-- USE THE FEATURE!!
