#GhostsOfBelfast Emergency Contest Judgment Contingency Plan
Wednesday, November 11, 2009, 10:35 PM
So, Twitter is a big bag of arse. When I launched the #GhostsOfBelfast TwitFic contest just over a month ago, I assumed the entries would be available for searching in perpetuity. Apparently not. Therefore, I propose the following:
If you entered the #GhostsOfBelfast contest, just tweet the hash tag #GhostsOfBelfast one more time before midnight on Saturday, and I will spend Sunday finding all the entries using a third party website that can look back further given a username and a search term. It'll be a bit of a slog, but there were so many great entries that I don't want to let any slip past.
With any luck, I'll have the finalists some time on Monday. Apologies to all those who entered for the extra hassle this entails, and I thank you for your patience.

Poor Stuart! I have an extra bottle of ARGH at home, if you've used up all of yours.
Too bad the search is turning out to be such a pain in the patootie! Re-tweet complete.
Aw, sorry to hear that, Stuart. Tweeted.
Good luck with the search, Stuart.

Aww, poor buddy. Stella'll make it go faster.
