Great start - mods, can we move this to the recruitment stories forum? I'm afraid it may get overlooked here.

One of the mods (moderators) can, I think.

That's because you can't. Like SWTXBelle said, mods (or John, the administrator) can move threads.

Things have a way of getting confusing where rush is concerned, can't they?

It almost seems like COB would be more confusing that Formal Recruitment. At least in formal you have to continuously narrow down your top choices.

Didn't this take place a while ago? I like your story, but dragging it out this long isn't necessary unless you're posting live.

When I saw this earlier, it screamed "creative writing exercise", and now with the ridiculously unnecessary "cliffhanger", I'm pretty convinced it is. 
This is one of those cases where "the rules" for writing your rush story really apply. Don't start your story if you "don't have much time" and either way, it's best to type the whole thing before you start posting. Break it up over several posts to differentiate days/rounds/whatever, but not to be a drama queen over an extended period.

Before you get your panties in a bundle, AlphaFrog makes VERY valid points. If this were a live story a delay in posting is understandable. Your previous post was at 11p yesterday. There really is no need to add the 'suspense' (next you might add the posts of 'do you want to hear the rest of the story' or something similar.). Yes, we understand you have a life, but since this all has already happened there is not reason why you could not have typed up your story in advance of posting - then we could congratulate you, ask questions on how things are going, ask for you to offer suggestions for PNM who could see your story, etc.

And I'm not trying to be rude or anything, But you responded pretty quickly to the criticisms, so it seems you would have time to type up the rest of the story instead..

It's not they we're not interested, because we are, you're story is very good so far, but a lot of the stories on here drag on ohne ende, for no reason whatsoever. Or they're never finished, which is even more annoying. Therefore, while you still have our attention, please finish it within reasonable time.
