If a consensus cannot be reached, we will ask an impartial writer from the game to review the application and break the tie. The reply you receive may include feedback such as suggestions for minor alterations. You can expect to hear back in 1-5 days. We are available for clarifications via IM or email (AIM Screennames: Poetic Fangs or Eyeliner Girls).
