Too Late to Amend?


RPG Superstar™ 2009 General Discussion


Yikes! I submitted and then noticed a typo. In the item name, no less. I don't think I've submitted anything meaningful anywhere, ever, with a typo in it before. Too late to amend?

If so, there's always next year.


yeah, for two reasons:

after you submit, the button changes to 'thank you for your submission'

also, the deadline for all submissions was about 20 seconds ago!

There's still plenty of time to go; the deadline is tomorrow, January 2, at 2:00 pm.

EDIT: OK, so it's not "plenty of time"; it'd be more appropriate to say it's crunch time. But there's still time, nonetheless.


hmm...the deadline listed in the graph is "10:00 p.m." so i assumed that was today, pacific time. sorry if I mislead anyone

The schedule on the RPG Superstar page takes into account your preferred time zone.

You are CORRECT, sir!

Time spent proofreading is the MOST IMPORTANT TIME OF ALL.


Well said, Booms! If I were a judge here, I’d discard my own entry upon reading the one-word title, which contains the absurd typo. If an author's too careless to present grammatically correct, typo-free writing, how can you possibly trust his writing's content or the judgment underlying that content?

I repeated that mantra to the litigation associates I supervised almost daily for years. That didn't make me popular, but they became better writers. Now it’s my turn to feel that barb's bite. The gods must have a bitter sense of humor.

(By the way, Boomer, the “Crackling Whirling” rocked and rollicked and rolled! You write exceptionally, and that particular exception proved the error-free rule, in my book.)

So looks like I'm out. Best wishes to the rest of you RPG Superstars! I hope your wondrous items forever raise the bar for magic items throughout the industry!

Star Voter Season 6

I was wondering about that change in time as well. It was 2 on my computer earlier and now it's 10. Is it set for a specific time zone as well?
