Message: <blockquote data-quote="el-remmen" data-source="post: 8176551" data-attributes="member: 11">Does it make sense to start up a general "IRON DM DISCUSSION" thread?Maybe it is just that I am uncovering neat tidbits and patterns as I archive the early tournaments, (a third of the way through Fall 2002, my second), but I keep finding things I want to talk about and consider as we move forward. A lot of the same discussions were taking place back then but also some have been forgotten and others are no longer relevant but still interesting from a historical/culture of the game perspective. (Or maybe I am just taking this all too seriously, which is a thing I do)Anyway, in Fall 2002 I found the first references to problems of entry length with two second round entries of 2100 and 2400 words going head to head. The writer of the shorter one even included an apology: "I apologize ahead of time for the length of my post. This is the shortest I could see myself making it without cutting something important."Edit to add that the other entry had a note too! It was just buried in the text, but reads, "I really apologize for the length of this. The scenario got out of hand at about 2am this morning, and I just couldn't stop writing. If I lose for that, 'I regret nothink!'"</blockquote>
