Posting Deadline (extended), plus, Thanks

Oops. When we posted the rules for filling prompts we forgot to mention the deadline for posting.
Because of our mistake, we're going to extend the posting deadline to March 10.
We'd also like to take a second to thanks folks who have participated or are still going to. We've had some problems, we've learned some things, and this may lead to changes for the next time we do this.
Thanks for your participation and thanks for putting up with our growing pains.

o No claims. You can create from any prompt, including your own. Multiple works may be created from the same prompt.
