Blueshift @ BUCK · 7:38pm Jul 8th, 2014
As you can probably guess from the title, I have cracked and bought myself a Saturday ticket to BUCK, the UK pony con in August. Do not make me regret this, I will be missing Doctor Who which is back on tv the same day!
Is uh, is anyone else going?
In other news, I have now read 54 stories for Ob's 'Dangerous Game' competition, with 10 more to go. Please blame Obs for my lack of writing productivity. I expect his beard in the post as recompense for my time.
I've been meaning to read through those, would you say it's worth it?
*raises hand* I'm going! I'll be the awkward one lurkin' around everywhere :3

I feel that there are a lot of stories which people were writing anyway and decided to submit, rather than taking the idea of the competition to heart and trying to do something new with the old, tired prompts. There are a few good ones though; I won't say which till judging has finished as that probably wouldn't be fair.
Presentperfect gave a good rundown of stories in the competition if you want some pointers.

It's a convention! That'll be everyone!
His beard's in every post he makes. Just look at his avatar!

And soon it will be mine
Did you just ask your followers to go forth and harass the leader of the church of beards? Because, you know, I feel really strongly for beards and, oh dear, I'm really torn between loyalties here.
I'll be sure to come from Canada and ruin your day.
I might try and get there.
and yet you DID NOT TELL ME
I feel affronted and sadnessed
Oh man, you can do it! I hit the "ten to go" mark Monday afternoon, go go go! :D
It would be a pleasure to meet you :D
Yeah, I'm going

I, too, shall be at BUCK on the Saturday. If'n we cross paths, I shall be recognisable for the massive amounts of hair probably looking like I stuck my finger an a plug socket. I shall listen for your dulcet tones and follow them to their source.
