Story Forum CONTEST!

04-17-2005, 03:28 AM

Yeah folks, you heard right, there is going to be a CONTEST in the story forums! What about, you ask? Well, I'll tell you!

The Idea:

What we are looking for here is a story or poem relating to the rules, from that sticky that Karma posted quite a while ago. Be as creative as possible (I was sitting at home one day when suddenly a meteor crashed outside my room. It had some really odd advice on it...) The idea, of course, is that your story will totally replace Karma's sticky, and will be getting a lot of attention to say the least.

Here is the sticky for those that are lazy :P

1) Keep all stories and writings in relation to Warcraft III or campaigns for this site. Nothing completely off topic.

2) No flaming. Flaming is the act of blatanly insulting someone. There is never any need to flat out insult anyone. If someone flames you, report it and the person will get what they deserve.

3) No trolling. Trolling is the act of trying to make someone up, andry, or reply with a flame. Trolling is just as bad as flaming.

4) No spamming. Spamming is the act of posting anything without a real meaning. This includes threads and individual posts.

5) Please make and and all criticism constructive. Posts such as "your story sucks" is not acceptable and does not help anyone.

We'll see how this forum works out and if we need to the rules will be updated. If the forum grows large enough a moderator or two will be assigned, but please do not go wild pm'ing me asking to be a moderator. The right time will come =D

The competition:

All stories must be finished by Sunday, April 25 at 12:00 midnight EST, so you have a nice long time for idea development. No edits past that point! After this, there will be a 1 week voting session for everyone to vote on the best entry. The winning entry will replace Karma's sticky, and I'll make it so that the post says you posted it rather then me.

Entering:
You can PM me the story if you want it to be private until the competition time, or you can post it here. I will be making a list of entrants. Only one entry per person! Additionally you can post your comments about the competition in general on this post.
