I don't wanna do your homework, I have plenty myself!
My entry:
The Secret War was bad. It hurt many ppl (yes, ppl). The ppl who got hurt didn't even know why because the war was a secret. I think we shouldn't have secret wars.
Looks like an A to me rave haha.

Professors always search for key phrases from any given essay - I hope you fail whatever class this is for.
Cheating degrades the educational value of a diploma, be it high school or collegiate.
I have REALLY un-PG things to say to you and others like you.

:( You made my post fail.
Nuh uh. I agree with you. Cheaters get away with it and they bring down society as a whole, because they receive something they have not rightfully earned. Then they get jobs they don't deserve and the hard working members of society get screwed.

Except since you save on the massive effort needed to legitimately get to those spots, the incentive to start cheating is pretty much always there.
Start catching them.

Raveshaw wins.
20 pages? yeek man, if you asked for 2 pages thats one thing but I get paid alot more than that for 4 hours of work
Wow? Asking someone to do your work for you for CB money?
Frost, I've suddenly lost the remaining pieces of respect I had for you :(
Errr I don't think he is asking people to do this because he wants to turn it in for a grade. I got the impression he wanted to bring people's awareness to this "secret war" by having people research it for themselves and then write a paper on it showing him that you have actually looked into it.
No disrespect intended towards frost, but let me clarify his intentions. He had approached chat saying it was a project for one of his college classes.
Also, you must ask yourself this: Why would he pay someone to write a 20 page essay if all he wanted to do was spread the word? To me, this would be more reasonable if it were maybe 1 page, and he gave people 500k or so as a reward.
Ah well...I figured he wanted a really in depth study lol. However, I did think the payment was kinda low for such a thing. 60 mill would be a lot more interesting xD

Come to think of it, 15M CB is what, $38? I don't think I can write 20 pages in 90 minutes... especially with "subsistence".
Ah, but the information you learn is priceless ;)
Why is everyone hating on Frost, what if he actually just wants to read a good paper, I'd give a lot of money for someone to write a paper to me arguing why Benedict Arnold was a good American.

^Something was said in chat, but I wasn't there so don't quote me on it.
I am almost certain that he is asking someone to do his college report. Which is pathetic and I hope that he gets kicked out of college for plagiarism.

Use your brain. This isn't for a pleasure read.
God. -.-

i will write for $10/page. That's normal consider professional website charges about $15. That's before I start writing that is.
I will give you "abstract" for free.
Why i say this? 'cause i don't want to see 19 people rush for 1 prize and some go home empty handed, since the work is quite a bit.
"'your essay must have subsistence 12 font times new roman (or something similar) double spaced, mla format, and please site your sources.'

Umm...that is normal typing conditions and if it didn't have such restrictions then I could just right 100 words with 100 font and have 20 pages....so yes I was using my brain.

...Why would he SPECIFY the CONDITIONS, ask for citation, and request MLA format if he was just doing this for a pleasure read?
I do _not_ retract my former statement.
"Which is pathetic and I hope that he gets kicked out of college for plagiarism."
AH, but in order for him to get CAUGHT for plagiarism, someone would have to write the paper for him first, wouldn't they? :P
Come on, everyone! There's money in it, and it's for a good cause!

Also for all that other its so its a well written essay not something you just make up

So why do you want it in MLA format with sources cited...? Seems pretty dang fishy.
I have an idea. If the purpose is to raise awareness wouldn't it be better if you gave away a smaller reward for a bunch of smaller essays?
