A contest

[dramaturgy]

Thanks to everyone who gave me birthday wishes! You guys are the best! ::blows kisses::

And, against my better judgement (::looks at you::), in honor of Rankinstaff week, to be celebrated annually in the first full week of October thusly (we are so bad), I present a drabble contest.

Rules:
1. The contest begins immediately, and will end on Friday, October 11, 2002, at midnight at your local time zone.
2. Please limit yourself to two (2) drabbles per day.
3. Use correct spelling (to the best of your ability, I understand we all can't be walking dictionaries, but here's dictionary.com for help) and grammar.
4. Send them to dizzylizzy182@yahoo.com, and include this template when you send me your drabble/s:
Title:
Author:
Author e-mail:
Rating:
4.5. Drabbles are not to exceed 100 words.
5. Have fun. :)

Everything wins some sort of award! It might be a really stupid award title, but everything wins something! You can't lose!

So... really, its not much of a contest... more like "Liz Accepting Her Fate"...

Happy Birthday! Sorry I'm slightly late in saying that, but my laptop was away for repairs...

But it's back now. Hurrah!

::claps:: Glad it got itself fixed! And thanks for the belated birthday wish!

Happy birthday! I don't know you, but I saw it was your birthday because of ktnb, so I thought I'd better say it. So remind me, how does it feel to be 17?

Pretty damn all right. I'm going to go up to the video store and rent Dogma because I can. :)

*snorts* Good to see you putting your newfound age to good use.

Re:

Good for you! I take it by your reply then that you're (a) American, and (b) that Dogma is an NC-17 over there?

Re:

"A" would be correct, but "B", Dogma is R. But the video store here in town is really anal about kids under 17 renting R movies. :P

So how does the rating system work over there then? Explain it for me one last time...

Re:

G is for all audiences.
PG is parental guidance for those under 18.
PG-13 is parental guidance for those under 13.
R is under 17 are admitted with an adult (the only time I've seen "R" movies is if my mom's taken me or rented it for me)
NC-17 is no one under 17 admitted. This is usually avoided by cutting things out to get an R rating (i.e. American Pie had to go through four edits before it finally got an R rating)

go to movieratings.com for more information. :D

Ah - thankee!

[ladyluck7007.livejournal.com]

I thought
G - all audiences like you said
PG - Parental Guidance suggested
PG-13 - Parental Guidance strongly reccomended for children under 13
(cause PG-13 is stronger than PG)
R - children under 17 must have parental guidance
NC-17 - Not for children under 17

Eh. Whatever. Either way, I can now go see them all alone. :P
