Two entries in a single issue?

[doctortomoe]

So earlier this week some of my held-over NT entries were finally accepted into the NT. And while I was happy, this weeks issue comes out, and lo and behold, two of my entries are in this week's NT.

So, I'm wondering. I used to be told that it was only 1 entry per issue. Did that rule change or was this just an oversight did a wire get crossed or something?

I was going to come here and make a board for you, but guess you already did that... lol

But yeah, I'm wondering the same thing. Has this ever happened before?

I've had this happen to me once, back in issue 530. I believe that the rule generally is that you can only have on per issue, however, it can be broken on occasion.

You have a short story that was themed for this issue, and an article. I think articles are a their least submitted type, so they may have been too short on articles not to use yours, but they also wanted to use your themed story.

I'm my case, I had a short story and the final part of the series together. The short story had been held over for more than two months, and was not themed, so it may have been used simply because it had been held onto for so long, or because they were short on short stories that week.

I'm just guessing, but it makes sense to me.

That could be it. That article was held over about six weeks ago, and I entered the short story for this issue.

Articles are the most submitted type! xD

But yes, sometimes Droplet also just gets mixed up. PM her and she'll get it sorted. ^_^

Ah, thanks. On here or on Neo?

They are? I thought that was comics. My bad. X3;

[doctortomoe]

Or should I message on both?

[Komori]

Well, it's already been published. XD I'd just chalk it up to an oversight.
