I think we can safely say that Contest #9 is over, so I'll let aleana judge that at her discretion. For now, I'll start another contest.
First Person Perspective
In the mutterings on the forum, it's become clear that a number of you, myself included, are considering (or have started) branching into the First-Person Perspective. So, here's a nice general contest: Write 1,000 in the first-person perspective and the best one wins a nice shiny 50 points. Any genre, any setting, anything you want.
Good luck, all
TIPS, RULES AND OTHER STUFF:
1. 1,000 words only (give or take 100 either way)
2. Entries will be marked and judged when I can be bothered. My decision is final, so there.
3. ONE ENTRY PER MEMBER
4. I've given up fighting this; comment may be made in this thread
5. Nope, can't think of a fifth rule.
Legal, technical and general hoo-hah:
- The judges decision (i.e. mine) is final. You don't like it? Go find Lugana!
- I shall accept bribes. I start the bidding at £1,000,000, a publishing contract and an XBox 360.
- The rules will be obeyed or there shall be Repurcussions (muahaha, etc.)
ENTRIES TO BE IN BY: End of April

Is this contest still opened?
The Thought Fox - September 23, 2006 02:53 PM (GMT)
Given that no one has entered yet, yes. By all means make an entry - I'd like to keep these contests going.

Hi The Thought Fox! How are you?
It's unfortunate that no one has entered the contest yet. You would think that a few entries would be submitted by now.
I wish I had the time to write a piece for the contest, but unfortunately, I'm swamped right now. Maybe before April I can write something and paste it here if the contest is still going.
Good luck all!

Lol, the contest will still be going until we have more than one entry. :D

is there a prize?
The Thought Fox - January 16, 2007 01:32 PM (GMT)
Yeah, pride.
Back when this place was more active, we added to the post count as a 'score'. So a prize of 50 points would see 50 posts added to your count. The admins also made a note in that user's signature, announcing that user as the winner.
