    Does anyone know what the record is for the most consecutive Short Story contest wins?

    @Scalenex @Killer Angel

    You could figure out yourself with the winner's thread.

    I am going to guess that the most consecutive wins is Killer Angel because he has the most wins period. Y'ttar had a pretty good streak once. That'd be my second guess

    I know, I was being lazy. I figured one of you fine gentlemen would know the figure off the top of your head.

    That's an impressive tally. Four wins period is already more than what anybody has, let alone four wins in a row!

    Well, you've only got ten more to go to tie, and eleven more to take the crown outright. So the question is, are you willing to write 11 Chaos Dwarf stories? ;)

    Hmm... contemplating what to decree the theme for the next competition be...

    Maybe I should upset @NIGHTBRINGER by declaring it "the utter humiliation of Chaos Dwarfs"... Would that cause him to blue-screen? Stories with Chaos Dwarfs! But they are getting humbled utterly!

    I kid, of course. @Scalenex, let me know when you want the theme and I'll message you.

    XD

    Got to keep you on your toes. You constantly exposit the virtues of how Chaos marks us all; Chaos is all about the back-stabbing for fun and profit! In the case of Tzeentch, emphasis on the fun of listening to "curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal". In the case of the Skaven, emphasis on "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Now I am the greatest-bestest!".

    Also right now, I'm feeling less than charitable toward Chaos Dwarfs, due to my multiplayer campaign of Total Warhammer 3, where my buddy was attacked by them out of nowhere, forcing me to commit armies to help keep him Kislev alive, whilst I was already suffering ten other wars. Little buggers crossed multiple other factions' territories just to pick a fight with him.

    Now, now, now... don't be attempting to bite off more than you can chew.

    You stated your intention to dethrone @Killer Angel as the SS king, a monumental task at the best of times, but an impossible one if you oppose the Chaos Dwarfs. Your overconfidence will be your undoing. The vanilla Dwarfs are not the only ones that can hold a grudge.
