j0nn0! It’s time to D-D-D-D-D-D-DUEL!!!
“Blue-Eyes White Dragon, I summon thee!”
Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl! Defense Mode!
“ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA!”
ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA!
GO!
----------------------------------------
Umm, j0nn0? May I know what’s going on please?
“Sorry, I always wanted to do that at least once. Moving on, RRL has officially introduced the Duel System!”
Cool! How does it work?
“Well, why don’t we shove on over to the Duel Rules thread? First and foremost, anybody can challenge any other individual or group. Said individual or group may then accept or reject as they wish, then issue the duel conditions. It could be a simple game of rock-paper-scissors or as arduous as reaching the top monthly list.”
Sounds like fun. What do we get if we duel? Or is it just a site-wide game?
“In order for a duel to be recognized, it must be be given the official seal of approval in Wing’s thread! There’s even a ranking system in place! In the end, potential rewards include the respect and admiration of your fellow penguins… and…”
And what? Spit it out already!
“And a shiny achievement!”
*Gasp* MORE SHINIES!!!
“Yes, yes, now calm down a little, Narrator. In other news, duels have already started! Kinda-sorta started, anyways.”
What’s the issue?
“Well, seeing as how the infomercial duel among two WriTE members wasn’t officially recognized by Wing, but was officiated by the Super Mod, Vocaloid, the official status of the duel is in question.”
That sucks. I wonder if it’ll count.
“Oh, and before I forget to mention it again, Wing has challenged the members of WriTE to a Race to One Million! I might have mentioned it before, or not (might have been with other people), but this all started with a duel activity in the WriTE forums. The end goal is for either Wing or one of the WriTE’ers to accumulate a minimum of one million words in completed stories. One-shots and completed volumes count, but individual chapters do not until the story or arc or volume has been completed. The first to one million words wins all the cookies and possibly an exclusive, shiny achievement.”

So, tell me, j0nn0, will you be participating in this massive undertaking?
“You betcha. It’ll be more of a long term personal goal, but the added motivation will help spur me to finish my stories!”
You’d better. You have too many things just sitting around.
“Hehe… yeah. I have nothing else to leave you, our audience, with today so I’ll part with these words: See you next time and happy dueling!”
Throw a duel or two j0nn0’s way if you’re bored! His spring semester is ending soon so there’s going to be plenty of time to kill.
