Well, I did get a few people interested, and I did ask Rex about this, let's hope that other people agree with this.

I thought that this could serve as the dicussion board, so we can talk about what rules their should be and what not.

So these things we should go over:

Rules
Judges
Limitations
How to Judge
Genre of each contest
How long each contest will be open
Any other matters

Judges, I think that a different person should judge each time a contest comes 'round. Maybe three judges would be great, but if it is one, then that will be all right too. And also I think that their should be two awards, the Judge's Award, and the People's Award. Meaning that someone could win if the Judge(s) favor someone's prose, and that person may win, and if another entry is favored by the people, then they would win that award.

Limitations should be like one post is the limit, up to 10,000 characters. One official entry can be made. If you want to switch entries, you should say what one is the official one.

Genre of each contest: If we are to do this, i think the first contest could be free style, writing whatever you want, unless it is poetry.

How long each contest will be open: Personally, since this section isn't all that big, i think that a month would be good.

These are all my views on the matters at hand so far.

I hope that people like my idea. Like i said, i have a few people interested.

OH! someone voted! And for once it isn't me!

...

I think the Potter Forum was Interested in something like this too.

i had this idea for quite some time honestly, a few months. i was reading through my pms, and i remembered what Rex said when i asked him about it. told me if i get a few people interested....

Esaul?

Didn't Amity Just make you that Sig?

yeah, at the same time having my name changed. Esaul was something from linkin park

I voted yes.

WHOO HOO

prose!!! I voted yes too!

yay!!! thank you ^_^

so now, for those that have agreed, how are we going to do this?

I think this is a good idea. Who would be the judges thought

we have volunteers. it will rotate, so the same person isn't the judge all the time.

I don't know. The judges would be like mods, right?

no not at all. and it's probably going to be one judge.

it should probably be someone who doesnt know any of us very well (no possibility of unfair judging)

well, that's going to be a toughy. Rex is out of the question right away

me and him, we are sworn enimies.

i honestly wouldn't mind judging, though I know everyone who posted in this thread. I am fair and all that stuff. We could give that a try

I voted yes. Though I doubt I would take part.

that's alright. though I think you should. You are a great writer honestly

oh, and should fanfic be allowed or our own work?

We would need fair judges, so who would judge? You said earlier that there are volunteers. Who are the volunteers?

i volunteered if you haven't noticed, and i am fair

but if you judge would you be able to submit?

no i would not be able to submit

Well, I like fanfics, but I'm not sure if anyone else does.
You mean Harry Potter, right? Cuz that's the only fanfic I see anymore.

lol. that has invaded in fiction area

I don't even like HP all that much anymore.
I miss the days when I used to like EVERYTHING.

Good ol times...

I request to be a judge (at some point), I don't know many people that well yet so many seem to know me

I can honestly say that I know you Allies! I think you'd be a good judge ^_^

Hmm... yeh you could do it.

so.........anything else anyone wants to add?

Are you 100% sure that you know me?

I can't say that I know you know you, but we've had our run ins

Ha, made you contradict yourself!

Alright.... anyways...

I wish we could get more people to come into this forum, it feels so empty compared to all the others... and I still hate everything I post getting like 1 reply or none at all. We gotta think of something...

Agreed. this is the least visited forum in my opinion. Got a lot of potential writers, and we need to do something with that too

Its almost sad that way....
