Awhile back (a year ago) I wrote a continued series with my brother, and we sent it in under both of our names. When it was published in the Times, only I got credit. I felt that this was unfair, but my brother was understanding about it.
Now we want to co-write another series, and I'm wondering if it's possible yet for both of us to get credit. Josh never answered when I asked, and the Editorial is no help...so what do you guys think? If it's not allowed, can we petition? I remember a series of comics written by different authors being allowed. Any comments?

Hmmm well it depends on who sends it in. I.E. Marie does get credit for high and star when it's sent in be sure to include it's by both of you! (Usernames i mean)

That's what I mean; if I sent in both of our names, would we both get credit? Last time I sent in both our names.

I think if two (or more) people worked on something...they should all get credit...and a trophy

I make sure that I tell Josh about everyone who collaborated on the item. On Doc Zappy, Izzy, Pseudo, and I each get a trophy for each comic.
I think he changed the trophy policy a few months ago, when I asked about my first strip I submitted. After all, it's only fair.

Hmm... I think there should be a new Neopian Times trophy called the "Co-Writing" trophy. So it's like a medallien, and not that good but it's still something... I'd like to see more trophies out there! Oo! Shiny! Colourful!!!

I think I took a little liberty myself when I wrote my part of the round series, I practically spent one day a week writing a big chuck for a few weeks, and they in three nights I did editing and filling in of gaps and stuff, and there was an additional week after it was submitted of the editing process. Needless to say, shortly after it was all done it would have been much harder time finding time to work on it. So I really can't blame Geovii for having worse luck than I...

I'd like to see more trophies out there! Oo! Shiny! Colourful!!! BRILLIANT! However, then writers would get people begging them to claim that they had co-written the piece with them so they would get the medallion without doing any work
