Now, I have only recieved the score from 2 judges so far. This is very disappointing. I was trying to hold off doing the final tally untill I get more in, but if I wait too long, i'm afraid it will ahve no meaning. So, I ask you all, should I just use the two scorings I have, or wait a little longer?

I say wait longer so you know the true scores from the judges and not by just 2 of them.
2 scores are hardly a conclusive representative sample. Why not harass the remaining judges? I don't see anything wrong with waiting a bit longer.
Or just drop the whole thing altogether, as not too many people seem all that terribly interested. It's what I did, and I turned out perfectly normALbLoOdMURdErdEatHSpLatteRHorRorBrEAkER.
I think that's probably all we're going to get unfortunately. Wait maybe another day if you want but don't wait too long.
Man, at first everyone was enthusiastic about this, but then only 1/4 of the judges even sent in their scores! I say pitty on all you other judges!
I say it's a pity that one of the judges who submitted scores can't spell pity. :eyebrow:

There's a difference between knowing something and practicing it plith... For example... being from Missouri, I know "ain't" ain't a word... but I still use it in everyday speech... Knowing something doesn't guarantee that you won't do it or make a mistake *GHASP* But then again, being the extremely intelligent and evolved being that plith is, I'm sure he's rose above such things...
Tsk. People these days are just so quick defend each other. I'm merely pointing out that one of the "judges" is a little twelve year old kid who should probably develop his spelling before he can think to critique others'. And "ain't" is just a terrible word to use. Stop right now. Just like "irregardless" or "Bill Clinton".
Plith, the judge's job is to decide on the best story for it's content, not spelling. Spelling and grammer make up only a minor part of the score.
