I submitted a story to the Neopian times, right? Well on my way to the NT Star avatar, which is my dream avatar. Anything's easier than MSPP or SuAP, amirite? Anyway, I submitted it last week and was waiting for the NM that said it was being held over. I get home from work to this: Now. There are quite a few things wrong with this neomail. First, let's touch on the basics. Neopia is home to many things. Such as the Virtupets Space Station. In this space station, there are computers. To get to this space station, you must take a rocket ship. Pretty advanced, right? It's beyond me how things like COMPUTERS and SPACE STATIONS can exist before telephones and cars. Oh but wait, there's more! Fig. A Spoiler I'm fairly certain that is, in fact, a phone of a cellular variety. Fig. B Spoiler 'Golly, I can never get this MICROWAVE'S picture to show the news clearly!' Quite obviously a television. Fig. C Spoiler How would you watch a game show other than on a TV? Fig. D Spoiler Call me crazy, but that looks an awful lot like a CAR. They must have mis-spelled 'ROCK' in the filename. I could go on.... I submitted an editorial mentioning as such, and if that doesn't get replied to I'm going to email them directly. This is absolutely preposterous. :lol: Anyone else notice subtle nuances that TNT deems 'against the rules/alternate universe' that they break themselves?
Lmao, thats to funny Tycho .. sorry your story didnt make it in. You have great points and facts to support them. This made my night and made sence at the same time. Beware of TnT tho, last time im "voiced my opinion" i got suspended lol f'in TnT XD Good luck with your story
QFT And that shiny avatar you dreamt of having isn't going to be yours unless you know a TNT staff or got any relations with someone that knows TNT staff. Exceptions are rarely given just to prove me wrong. B)
Writing is my strong point, but my first accepted entry was actually a comic. I just like writing more, although I could make 9 more half-arsed comics and get it just as easily. While I'm not going to edit it until I've got an answer, I've decided though that instead of taking a car they're going to take a rocketship, and there's an item called 'Can Telephone' that is going to be used instead. And as far as the TV is concerned... I don't understand why a COMPUTER couldn't stream Better Than You right into his very home
TNT are hypocrites in themselves, or at least I think so. They say things like that, and then do/have something thats speaks the total opposite of what they say.
