Molly, the two items above aren't on the competition page. I had to come here to confirm the word count.

The Chestnut Man on Netflix.

Sorry if this has been covered but when I try to go to my profile or stories it’s taking me to red instead of my profile and stories here (from the menu itself, I can circumnavigate by using my name here for example). 

It seems to happen at random lately. Normally if you refresh the page or go somewhere else on the site it goes back. If it doesn't, then please let me know.

Could you please raise a support ticket? This will help them sort it out. Just in case, the steps up a few posts.

I just finished watching Midnight Mass on Netflix and I really enjoyed it.  It was dark and moved at a great pace. The characters were likable or extremely dislikable in some cases. Like, I wished for this person to meet a violent end from the moment we met them.

That is next on my list. It caught my eye because of the connection to two other series (The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor) featuring many of the same actors. I loved both of those. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I've been watching the last season of The Walking Dead. Not my favorite anymore, and ending it is probably a good thing. They are recycling too many of the same storylines. I hope they do an excellent job with the conclusion. It has been a great series, for the most part, that deserves a fitting ending.

I’m watching the final season of TWD in the hope it ties up loose ends and finishes off the series on a vaguely hopeful note. It’s not happening so far, though. Lots of new characters, new storylines and no sign of closure. I think I’m going to be disappointed

I loved Hill House and Bly Manor and Dr. Sleep - I really dig Mike Flannagan's work. We're halfway through Midnight Mass - the actor playing the priest is a huge fave from The New Adventures of Old Christine (hopelessly addicted to reruns of that show).   

TWD lost me around the time Negen showed up, though I'd been getting less and less engaged by it. They just seem to wander around making disastrous decisions for seasons at a time.  Them living in the little town was last time it made narrative sense.  And don't get me started about all the driving around - where do they get the gas!? It'd all go bad within a year.

The Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown episode on Detroit is sheer brilliance. 

 I think it was an odd choice to have such a twisted over the top storyline of Eugene and them. Not to mention Daryl's situation. It makes no sense and I think it's wasting time instead of wrapping up things that mean something to the fans. They chose the last season to spread themselves too thin.

Verbal, I have a huge crush on Father Paul. I was talking with someone yesterday that there has to be something wrong with me saying I have a crush on a Priest. lol

I'm with you, I really like Mike Flanagan too.

At this moment I'm watching Creepshow. They are great.

Funnily enough, there is a connection to Hush (on Netflix-excellent movie if you haven't watched it) and Gerald's Game (on Netflix as well). We can talk about it when you are finished.

I've been watching the last season of TWD too. I have to agree that I'm mostly over it too. I only continue to watch it for Aaron, Judith, Daryl, Negan, and the hope to see Michonne again. I do not like Eugene and Ezekiel's storyline at all.

Is there a tag or anything special that has to be added to mark the story as a competition entry? I didn't see such a thing on the first entry, but it is early morning here, so maybe I missed it. 

But if there isn't one, could something be put in place to have the entries stand out and be identified?  🤷🏻‍♀️

I've sent them a message about that. That is something I dropped the ball on and assumed it would pop up automatically. 

For now, I'll just ask everyone to add competition to the tags.

I may have missed the conversation, but I can’t figure out how to post a picture from my phone. The current set up only allows for a URL or YouTube link.

What am I missing? Or, is this one of the things that is on the techie honey-do list?

Thanks.

We've got our first story!
