Civman: I re-nominate it.

The Iroquois Threat, by Grundel has already won a story contest. As such, I think we should leave it out of this one, to make room for more.

Speaking of more, we need four more nominations.

I see that civman2000 has nominated my story for the story contest. I dont want my story entered into the contest yet because I wanted to finish the story first, so for people who like my story and want it in the story contest, please wait untill I finish the story to nominate. I am glad that you like it so much to nominate it for the story contest.

No, don't....all nominations should have to be seconded, and so far only2 have been...that's how we can avoid an excess of nominations

Civman2000: Good thinking. What would I do without you? We'll wait for there to be 16 seconded nominations.

Jack_www: If you want your story removed from the nominations list, thats ok, but I think it deserves a spot.
