Hello CN,
I hereby declare the sign-up thread for the Sable Scroll, official Carpe Noctem short-story competition open. If you wish to participate, please post below that you wish to write for the story. You can begin writing as soon as you like, but please do not post up any of your entries until dates have been finalised. Do not worry, plenty of time will be given to you so you can write a good story with plenty of proof-reading.
The rules for the competition are as follows:
1) Your short story must be Warhammer Fantasy or Warhammer 40,000 based. There is plenty to write about in both those systems, so I doubt you'll find yourself lacking material!
2) Whilst we would love to read through reams and reams of fiction, this competition is for short-stories only. There is a maximum word-count of 2500 words. There is no minimum word-count, but bear in mind the shorter your story is, the less we have to judge you on.
3) All entries must be submitted with a word-count. You can do this simply by adding it to the bottom of your story; perhaps use a word-processor to count it for you. No cheating, though, because we can just copy and paste your story into a word processor to see if the word-count is accurate!
4) Each participant may only enter one story each.
If there are any more regulations I have forgotten, I will edit them in here.
You will receive more information on how the competition will run closer to the due date of the entries. Any member may enter, including staff. For now, however, please state that you intend to enter, and get writing!
All entrants will receive 10 zombies just for taking part in the Sable Scroll. The winner will receive an additional 100 zombies, second place 50 zombies, and third 25 zombies. They will also most likely be awarded an official CN medal to display proudly below their avatar.
I hope you enjoy the Sable Scroll. Good luck!

Love it; good idea for a competition. Have to say, Chronicles of the Crypt - one of the best sections on CN 
Will it be action or more psychological? Darn it haven't even begun yet and I'm already bouncing of the walls:lol:
