Third Annual .Org Writing Contest?

[AntiochusIII]

1) Type of story: Your point is valid. I'm fine with fiction.

2) Theme: It will be an essentially infinite playing ground if there's no central theme. That will make it harder for both writers and judges; whether that is a good or bad thing, though, goes either way. Personally I'd like to see a theme-based competition, but I'm a fool and cannot help you pick a theme for it anyway, so...

3) Word Count: 2500 it is. Not too short as to be limiting.

4) Duration: I'm fine with anything. Leave it to the troubled, busy adults to decide; my summer freetime is basically absolute.

5) When: No objections from my part, either.

6) Submission: Uesugi Kenshin has a good idea. PM solves all yer problems (tm).

7) Junior members: Ideally there shouldn't be a block against Junior members. I understand your concern though, even if personally I find it quite terribly implausible that someone could be that desperate for recognition. My vote goes to: allowed.

8) Judging: No particular suggestions from me. The old system seems decent enough, though.

9) Prizes: It really depends on if anyone wants to contribute anything more than a badge. As for me, I don't want anything. (Of course, I won't be winning anyway but...)

10)
