I submitted my story, forgetting to check the font type and size. I re-submitted and resent the email back-up with the proper font type and size...I hope they'll accept it!?

I think that as long as it is before the deadline, they take the latest one. My first year I botched the title page with enough time to ask them about it, and that is what they said.
I got my story in before midnight, but it took a few minutes to get my email sent, which put it just after midnight. I know from past experience it is fine and the email is only back up but it makes me nervous still! Edited by Eggcorn - 04 Nov 2013 at 12:07am |

As did I, although I didn't resubmit. It copies out of Google Docs in Arial and I pushed the deadline too hard. I had workers who could only come this weekend.
*headdesk* Well, there goes 10% and probably my only chance to advance to Round 2.

feedback@nycmidnight.com and please use FFC2013 Challenge #2 Story as the subject line of the e-mail. I'm a bit neurotic and take a screenshot of my confirmation message. I don't know if they'd ever accept that if both my upload and email failed to go through, but I'll have it if that is every the case! HA |

I totally forgot about the title page. Will I be disqualified?

No reason to believe you will be DQ'd. However, like my font fault, it will hurt that 10% of the score that is formatting.
I feel for you on that one. I almost did the same thing. I subbed 16 minutes before the deadline, was still editing 20 minutes before it. |

You're right. I checked and had forgotten in the last round too. Idiotic. Since I scored 14 points then.
