Guidelines.
DO NOT POST ANYTHING HERE! I'll be posting the stories.
1. Short fanfic- fit in one post, format it yourself by putting it in spoilers and don't forget to space between paragraphs.
2. General theme- keep it within the forum rules of Gateworld ratings wise but if you're not sure, ask me so I can ask Sky to preserve anonymity. If you find you are lacking inspiration, ask in the fanfic discussion thread or browse through the plot bunny thread.
3. Duration- Again, one month, 3 weeks of submission and 1 week of voting, usually the last week of the month. This one will start a little early.
4. Submission- private message me the stories, PRIVATE MESSAGE, not visitor message. Format it in the advanced option and then send it to me. Avoids the hassle of copy and paste from email to here. Plus it'll already be formatted because you can preview your post beforehand! Or email me if it's a bit long, [email protected]
5. Voting- It'll be a poll like the very first competition. 1 vote per person, don't vote for yourself because you already know what you think of your own writing. I won't be voting but will likely participate. Don't promote yourself, promote the competition. I'll ask Sky to set up a poll when it happens. If there are more than say 12 stories, maybe we can change the voting to allow two votes per person.
6. Other- if you do vote, please perhaps give a comment of the stories so the writers know what you thought, some love the feedback, others may not, better than no feedback. But be respectful about it. If you guys and gals want further rules or clarifications, PM me or put them on the fanfic discussion thread and let everyone come to a decision. Or I'll just become a tyrant about it if things become too heated.
