[QUOTE="Dinkeldog, post: 236944, member: 195"] I'm going to be a little harsh here, but bear with me. Those of us who didn't submit ideas avoid rejection. If I put my favorite world in and didn't win, it's because someone else was judged to have better ideas. So to an extent I think that we chicken out. Granted, my excuse is timing and not having good internet access, and not even finding that list of questions until I was already home and had two days to go, both of which were tied up with work and family commitments. It's still just an excuse. I'm out of the game before it even started, and as much as I can say that I'm sure my home campaign would be the best one there it most likely isn't. Of course, for those of you who submitted your worlds, I think you can rest pretty easy because there are going to be a ton of other submissions as well. Ultimately, your stuff is not likely to be the best thing ever known to gamers. When that happens, you can console yourself that no one is going to take control of your baby away from you. Just remember (assuming you're not dismissing me as a jerk) that just because your world doesn't resonate with the WotC types that your world isn't good; it resonates for you and your players.
