Oh!!!! No, no, no, I must have read the deadline wrong! I thought the contest closed August 7th!!! I guess 'cause I'm an American and dates are usually written "August 05, 07" instead of "05 August 07" so I just overlooked the 05 part and... Ok, that's no excuse 'cause no one else read it wrong apparantly, but... I am SO mad at myself... Pleeeaaaase consider my story, I've been working on it for days!! Please? please? Name: Dragon's Lost Child Name of Fanfiction: First Blood House: Ravenclaw Link: www.fanfiction.net/s/3707903/1/First_BloodAmount of Words: 2243 Please? If you can't break the deadline at least give it a look and let me know what you think of the fic. But... please?

It's not closed, as today is only the 6th. It closes at midnight tonight as far as I know, so your entry is still in Dragon's Lost Child.

The competition closed on the 5th, though I understand your dilema. When I came to fanfiction, I got confused by the dates and Only realised what had happened when it was something ike 05/13/06 or something like that when I was thinking, hang on, there are not 13 months in a year.
Your entry will be accepted, though for the next competition, we will make the dates a bit clearer.

Oh, so we go by my time? I thought we went by the sites time, which is like a day behind.

Well, we should really go by the site's time, but this time we go by my decision. Next competition, though, if the entry is not posted in time, I take no prisoners. This is a one time only allowance. I'm only being this generous because I've made your mistake myself, but next time, no matter how much the student pleads, you should have learned your lesson.
