Timed out, 1-2. Failed by JonathanDark.

In the rule “The End”, replace the sentence

If the last two words in the story are “The End” the Story is Complete.

with

The number of words in The Story is publicly tracked. If The Story ever contains at least 1,500 words, as counted by wordcounter.net, or if the last two words in The Story are “The End”, then the Story is Complete.

This will give us a basic guide for the flow of our story and give us a goal to keep in mind. Currently we are at 264 words (17.6% of 1500). I’m not attached to the specific number, and we can always change it later.

Just for organizational purposes, would you mind if this was in the rule “The End” instead? That’s where the mention of the Story being Complete is mentioned and described.

I agree, hence the Proposal for a word limit to give us an ending point to shoot for so we can wrap up the story in a satisfying way. Feel free to suggest a lower word count if you’d like!

We haven’t really been reaching for the word limit with the fragments, so we definitely have the ability to speed things up

It’s also under everyone’s control how fast you turn around your Fragments and Scoring if you want things to move faster. *poke* *poke*
