A Picture is worth 1000 words

SBM Eludajae "Lynx" M'Nar

Or so they say, the competition is simple, there is a picture I have placed online, and you go to it and look at it and write a star wars story based on the picture you see. The catch is this; it has to be 1000 words, not 999, not 1001. Let’s see if the age old adage of a picture is worth a thousand words is true. Picture is at http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/1396/sithholocron.gif. Look at it and write me your story. There is no limit on time period, place, persons, as long as it’s Star Wars your good to go. Good Luck.

Dates: 9/1 to 9/30/2009

Platforms: MS Word

Awards: 2nd level crescents

Comments: Strict 1000 word limit

Upcoming Stuff

there isn't really anything going on right now that you need to worry about... except the new wiki and the RoS coming next year!

Making it Our Own

In this new tab i'll be posting stuff that we can do together as a BT to make our experience better, more fun, and cooler! right now we have 3 competitions running to improve our status as a battle team;

Title: (Motto) We are the... Well...

Specifics:

Greetings again all, i felt the need to improve our Team by adding in a

motto. Just a little something to show our pride in the battle team and to

instill fear in our enemies. The motto should be appropriate for Tarentum,

Tridens, and the Team. But should not lack in coolness, or pizazz. Just a

couple of verses to show how great we are :P. The best one will become the

team's official motto, and the creator will be awarded a 5th level

crescent.

Start Date: 9/17/2009

Specifics:

Hey Tridens journeymen, it has come to my attention that, when it comes to

fiction... We have nothing. But I plan to remedy this with the help you

all you. We need to finish the wiki page Kyra started when she was BTL,

and develop some mind blowing fiction That will make the other battle

teams jealous, those who help me the most will be awarded 5th level

crescents for their gallant effort(does not limit to one person)

We need a Wiki, and a good motto. So, we are going to be focusing on those for right now. you all have a month to help me out with them, send any pictures/ideas to me directly at [Log in to view e-mail addresses]. and if they are cool, i will edit them into the wiki. the people who do the most will get a 5th level crescent for fiction, and also for graphics if you helped out there. plus you will get your name published on the wiki page telling about your help and ideas!

the best motto i receive(directly) will be drafted as our battle team motto too! and you get 5th level crescent too...

I think that's it for now... we do have a new member, his name is Maaz Inglet. everyone welcome him!
