Group's Issues

Anyway, if you had an issue with it, could you explain it in the comments below ?
We should fix them.
Anti-hero Contest Postponement + new folder update
The anti- hero contest will be postponed until further notice. I got reeaaaalllly sick, including Bell Palsy (yay). Until I crawl out this pit of congestion and despair and chicken noodle soup, I will only be up keeping deviation submissions. Apologies to everyone who has taken an interest in the contest and have received no updates from me. I have a mountain of stuff to catch up on, including my own deviations ^^; which have hit the back burner harder than a too-clingy SO.
On a different, non-personal note, I'm going to add a mature folder, since mature submissions seem to get submitted no matter WHAT the rules say (you know who you are :|

I think this is a great idea! Some of the comments talk about SciFi as a theme, but it should be remembered that SciFi is a genre, not a theme; there's no reason that a theme like 'a tragic heartbreak' couldn't be written as a noire, scifi, mystery or a fantasy piece.
