So far, it seems that only yourself, Tirau Dan and myself are entering this round.

I agree it won't be ideal if there are only 3 entrants, but that is still upto 9 entries, so what to hey?
We'll probably find that less people will be able to enter in some of the upcoming rounds.

But if nobody has spoken up until now, it's unlikely this will happen, so I agree with you that we should just go ahead with this round. Not sure when I'll have my entries ready, it might take a few more days.

Who on earth told you such nonsense?
Of course penguins can fly. All birds can fly.
In fact, it's a well known suburban disaster in Greenland. Herds of emperor penguins fly over the farms and their faeces block farm machinery.
They're a protected species though and the farmers can't do anything about it.

Might i suggest that whilst keeping the series section open for a longet time frame, but also introducing a couple of easier to produce catagories. That way the series cat` can overlap the next two. I for one might have at least a chance of getting something to enter.

Do you mean to leave the series category open for a couple of weeks, while running the next category as well??? Sounds like a good idea if anybody is interested in trying to get something together. I'm just afraid that if I start pushing out deadlines, then interest will be much harder to maintain. Also, I listed the categories at the start of every round so people can see what is coming up and prepare if they wish.
Having said that, if your suggestion is what I think it is, then I like it. 🙂
