2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Why did my story get rejected? Sex Kills was submitted by me. You state that two of your moderators "claim" it is a repeat. The incident happened a week ago and I submitted my story two days later. Please provide reference as to how/where this is a repeat. Thanks, Chris.

If we've seen it before then it gets labelled as a repeat if it could possibly be eligable for an award. a lot of versions can pile up before the moderators get one into the slush pile.

Chris, You submitted "Sex Kills" on 03/31/2003 but by that time, we'd had submissions on 03/26 ("Was it Good For You", "Man dies in sex toy shocker", "Man Electrocutes Penis", "Sex Toy Shocker"), not to mention multiple submissions almost every day since then. To see what version Darwin chose, check out "Sex Toy makes Sparks Fly" in the Shush Pile. And better luck next time, Chris!

sermon in support of common sense."
