Neotimes game guide question

Tue Oct 04, 2005 11:06 pm

Your Neopian Times submission (Pterattack: Revamped) was rejected because it did not meet the minimum length requirement. The minimum length for a short story is at least 1200 words. Series should be at least 1500 words, while articles should be no less than 1000 words.


My article WAS 1000 words. It wasn't a short story, so I don't understand why it got rejected. So really in fact the min is 1.2k words and not 1k words, right?

Man, I didn't want to add this last part to my guide, but least I can fix and edit I had in it. *hopes no one else did a game guide for the game*

*awww*

O...what a bummer!

well, only advice I have is add the final 200 words and see what happens :) Good luck!

Resubmit it. If you are submitting an article, it only needs to be over 1000 words. Takenote that they probably have a program that counts words, and some do not count common words like a, the, and and.

Well, I did the 1.2k min, but if it's rejected again and some other user got a game guide on it into Neotimes. I'll give up, since there's not much you can bring up in two guides on the same game. XD

Though my guide now feel weird cause I really had to find stuff to boost it to 1.2k limit. Wish TNT was more clear with stuff, least a drop down to pick if it's article, short story, etc.

Sorry for a double post,but what do you do for this? O_o

Your Neopian Times submission (Pterattack: Revamped) was rejected because we had too many good entries in this category this week and there was not enough room for them all. Please try again next week.


First is was too low, NOW there's too many entries? There wasn't even a game guide for this game this week. Geez, TNT really must have hated my guide and I even spellchecked and proof read it. -.-

Do I just send it in again?

EDIT: BTW, the only reason I double posted was because I doupt anyone would read this edit. Sorry. I really didn't want to make a new topic.
