General Fiction Writing Contest?
Some of the users were up for it, so I thought I would make a poll to see how many people would actually like to do a writing contest...
So, what do ya say? Instead of having judges, I would let the other members of the boards vote, rating the stories on a scale of 1 to 10.
Vote now!

Voting ratings for stories is a system that can be abused, is the one problem here.

definitely agreed. member voting would be no more relevant then their sig and avatar ratings we did eachother in the off topic section. We need judges. On the other hand..ush shouldn't do it unless he wants to.
i vote yes anyway

it'd be cool if rex made some challenges for certain topic of fics and/or songfics. like: x-men:the movie, etc. or even a carry-on story where people can join in! i'm a member of a group of four that's working on this round robin harry potter fic.

I guess we'll be having it. 100% of the votes say Saddam Hussein...er...that we should have a writing contest.
The first one will be an unthemed contest. Then I'd have a poll for the theme of the second story.

The writing can be about anything, any category of writing, any galaxy of writing. You still have to keep it clean though.
Themed would "Write your own Sci-Fi story," meaning write a thing like Star Wars but it cannot be Star Wars. Or the theme could be "Write an X-men story." You would have to write something on the X-men.

One thing I was considering, if I get your permission, my favourite Fiction Section moderator of all Rex...
*bats eyelashes*
(Hey, I've heard flattery can help!)
A "Challenge" section - I, or you, or us, set a challenge that people have to meet. we can set any constrictions we like - eg. film/series, characters involved, genre, length etc, etc
whaddya think?

I'll do the judging if you really want me to, it is just that I don't pull punches when it comes to writing.

Well, I guess you can judge, then Ush.
Sounds like an interesting idea, Phoenix. I'll see what I can work out...
I'm not sure how long and all that stuff. I'll start it and set up the rules in a few days.
