Does anyone have a goot timeline of the event (including when news about who did it, ... were first aired) or know of a site where I can find one?

Best I can tell you is to do a web search. I don't remember exactly what my search terms were, but that's how I got the timing and order of things for ItSW Chapter 9. (Maybe "9/11 timeline"?)

That search term works quite nicely, I just tried it on Google. I also have my memories of that day to inform Lee's actions and situation (i.e. our companies would very likely react much the same way in Security matters).

Da Rulez:
(Yeah, its about time, aint it?)

I.
copyright: everyone's entitled to their own copyright of the work they have submitted. But it should be stated very early on the writ, ie: small print under the chapter title, including name or other recognizable lable of author/artist in question and the date of its conception/creation.

Example:
Early Morning at the WTC, by E. Furry
(c) 9/2001 - 2/2003 E.Furry

(First date denotes when I concieved of it [or worse of it in my diary Evil or Very Mad], the second date when I applied it to this work in its completed form.)


II.
Date of Submission:
April 1,2003 for a rough draft, outline, sketch, etc.
June 1, 2003 for completed story, artwork for corrections/judging [see below].
Sept 1, 2003 for a completed work.

Site for work to be posted, with help of the server/site owners, will be posted, before 9/11/03 for review and use by the rest of the populance of this world. No other work will acepted afterwards, unless it is deemed that the author/artist involved needed extra time (ie: health/mental reasons). Extra time will be an additional 3 weeks, or unless voted by the judging staff.

III.
Works:
Submitted Chapters, 1* per author. Length, - 250 word minimum (hey- thats only 5 paragraphs!), Maximum- less than 2 megabytes of text space. Subject matter, anything goes, except:

Political/Proganda Material. Its OK to say "I believe that the Americans deserved this...", but if it turns to a multi-paragraph rant- it wont be accepted. Everyone died at the WTC, including Muslims. The NY Times counted how many nationalities and religions were affected by at least the loss of one of their members, and it turns out that at least 1 somebody died from every known country, relgion and ethinic orgin.

(Have to .- certain words to trick my job's firewall to accept this post. I'll fix it when I get home.)

Se.xually Explicit Material. This is not a Yiff Project.

Vio.lent Content. The events of the day, was different to everyone, but at least, only the terrorists were the ones committing the violence; unless you were one of the terrorists. Fighting in self-defense is one thing, but lopping off heads for the hell of it- the line was to be drawn somewhere.

Artwork; all rules above apply; but remember, its a "furry project."

Fictional/Factual- that depends on you.

Format:
Stories, in simple HTML or plain text to be converted to html as possible.
Images, Jpeg or PNG Format.

*(this amount may change... we'll have to see.)

III Judging:
A panel of volunteers will be assembled electronically to judge such works submitting. (Anyone interested?)

Correctors- you can have the judges review it for grammar and spelling, or use your own; but I beg of you(!!!) use your word processor's spell checker!

More to be added...
Any Questions/Comments/Complaints?

Up to 110 kp/h and reaches that speed in under 1.5 seconds (that's much faster than most cars out there, including race cars)

Might be a problem.
I just hate Evil or Very Mad having something half-finished leave my paws. Just have to see about finishing the thing by April... Confused

I think I'll write one as well. From the perspective of someone inside the observation deck of the first tower; perhaps the second tower from another point of view. It should prove most interesting to capture the horror as it is witnessed from within.

Saddening and disturbing project you've started Elfen.

A simple outline or summary for the first submission- not even 1 paragraph in length if need be...

I may push the June 1st back and move it closer to Sept.'s deadline, but I'm thinking about it... Who thinks they need more time?
