Porn Battle XVI

I'm so sorry to be such a long time getting around to making this post. I kept hoping I could somehow run a battle this winter, but it's clearly just not going to be possible at the moment. I know a lot of you will be disappointed (hell, I'm disappointed), and I'm sorry I've been slow responding to emails/comments/messages about the battle.

As I wrote on the Porn Battle site, this isn't an end to the battle, just a hiatus. If at all possible, I'd like to run Battle XVI, maybe next January (that's a maybe, though, not a definite promise), and if anyone has any name suggestions for the Battle XVI, leave them here!  Also, if you have links to any other porn (or other) battles that you'd like to share, leave a comment.

Awwww! Disappointed, too, but sorry things aren't going well for you. I hope you're okay and things will turn up soon. And, as you say, maybe next year. *sends positive vibes your way*

ALSO: Have we used 'salacious' before? How about 'Salacious Sixteen'?

Very much agree with this plan; there are more than enough unfilled prompts from previous Battles to occupy us for months...

*ears perk up*

I'm sure I could arrange something like that (at [community profile] pbam) if you all give me a day or two. :-)

I would be interested in helping with the logistics of this.

Best of luck, hope you're doing well - sending happy thoughts your way. The next battle will come when it comes - always worth the wait.

As for the title, the choices are many. Sultry Sixteen? Steamy Sixteen? Seductive Sixteen? Sensuous Sixteen? Sumptuous Sixteen?

It's okay, breaks are important too so take care.

RE: name... how about a dirty reference to golf -- The Sixteenth Hole! Although, on second thought, that might work better for Battle XVIII since there are 18 holes in golf AFAIK...?

It's a huge project to run, so if a hiatus is needed, a hiatus is needed. Take good care of yourself, we'll still be ready and willing (pun very much intended) to sort the dirty prompts into their boxes when next you call on us. (Not to mention FILL the prompts as well ;) )

Can't someone else run it this year?
