The Charming 10k

---

No we’re not making you run anywhere, I promise, just maybe give your fingers a workout getting 10k words in this month.

Formerly known as our version of NaNo, we’ve broken up with the contest and their artificial “intelligence”…

And continuing on with our typical November 10k jaunt!

The Name of the Game

• The goal is to write 10,000 words within the month of November. This will run November 1st to November 30th, 2024 NOT AC to AC.
  
  • BUT WAIT BEE, THERE ARE LEVELS? Yes, yes there are. Set your own goal, see how far you get! We'll be having levels/prizes for 2.5k, 5k, 7.5k 10k and 12.5k+.
• You have to pick one character to complete the challenge with.
  
• Every IC post that you want to count toward your total word count needs to be posted IN THE SPREADSHEET BELOW; All IC forums count, this means journals/letters etc, but not the AU forum!

How to Play

• YOU will be keeping track of your post total via this handy dandy Spreadsheet! (2023, 2022, 2021 for reference! I have 2019 and 2020 too if you want to see it, just ask!)
  
• Create a new tab with your name and your character's name. (Or right click and hit "duplicate!) Please keep them ordered alphabetically!
  
• Copy and paste the entire coding into your own tab. (You can skip if you duplicate!)
  
• Post the link to the post in the first column.
  
• Put the actual post (without any html/bbcoding) in the "post" column, the last column will total it up and then the total from that column will go into the word total!
  

BUT WHAT DO YOU GET IF YOU DO THIS HUGE THING?
These lovely prizes!

1) The November Challenge stamp
Coming soon!

2) The Charming 10K 2024 Stamp
Coming soon!

3) Further prizes will be announced soon and based on Level Achievement!
But will feature things like graphics, AtOs, Immortality Discounts, Occupation Locks, etc. Maybe a playlist if I can get Bean to help :P

Please note: If your posts are obviously long just for the word count and not resembling in any way a quality post, it will not be counted.

WANT TO PLAY?
Sign up here! Don't forget to designate which character you're going to be using here. If you sign up after the competition starts, only posts done after your sign up are counted!

Word counting begins at 12am EST on November 1st!
