<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">I'm going to spend some time this weekend reading it over to make sure I corrected most of the errors, also fix the ending to make it easier to transition to the next story. When I submit the second draft I will make sure it's in the email itself. Thanks for the feedback, will be more careful of checking my work and not trust word as much with pointing out some bad grammar errors. --- On Sat, 7/17/10, mkguild-request@lists.integral.org <mkguild-request@lists.integral.org> wrote: <blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> From: mkguild-request@lists.integral.org <mkguild-request@lists.integral.org> Subject: MKGuild Digest, Vol 40, Issue 32 To: mkguild@lists.integral.org Date: Saturday, July 17, 2010, 8:00 AM <div class="plainMail">Send MKGuild mailing list submissions to     <a ymailto="mailto:mkguild@lists.integral.org" href="/mc/compose?to=mkguild@lists.integral.org">mkguild@lists.integral.org</a> To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit     <a href="http://lists.integral.org/listinfo/mkguild" target="_blank">http://lists.integral.org/listinfo/mkguild</a> or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to     <a ymailto="mailto:mkguild-request@lists.integral.org" href="/mc/compose?to=mkguild-request@lists.integral.org">mkguild-request@lists.integral.org</a> You can reach the person managing the list at     <a ymailto="mailto:mkguild-owner@lists.integral.org" href="/mc/compose?to=mkguild-owner@lists.integral.org">mkguild-owner@lists.integral.org</a> When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of MKGuild digest..."

The ending is a bit odd (which could also simply be my personal taste) and I'm not entirely sure about the getting jailed.  But still not a bad opening story or at least a story to get your feet on the ground in the MK universe.

Message-ID: <011101cb2519$db0af690$9120e3b0$@net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII The list controller here to explain things.    The Mailing list engine is a bit weird and can be (VERY) picky at times. For the best results a story should be posted by cutting and pasting directly into the body of the email. Another minor worry is the email cannot be more then 8k long (which works out to be around 8 - 9 pages of text). If you do go over the limit you'll get a warning about it. And so will I. I then go into the control panel and manually release it. If its longer then the 8k limit simply break it up into multiple parts. I hold the record for the most parts. Winter Assault took lover 100 parts and the better part of a year to post! but that was over 600 pages long. As a warning the list engine tends to lose things like italics and bold settings which I find very annoying. If you need to post with an attachment its best to use something fairly widespread like .doc, .rtf or .txt. The list engine seems to prefer .rtf - I've no idea why. There are problems with the .docx format that I just found out about - it seems older versions of Word CANNOT read it for legal reasons. Very annoying as I like it!    BTW - to get a story into the archive you need to send the story to Virmir and that CAN be an attachment with all the correct settings and italics and stuff! I hope this helps and doesn't confuse you.
