    Competition/Contest Idea.

    Hey All,

    I can see that alot of you people enjoy writing stories, you know, being a member on a writing forum

    Anyway, on a previous Forum, I ran a weekly/monthly contest/competition, naming the Genre, the possible story lines and other important features. Im not sure If i should start that this here, or if I shouldn't, so Im leaving the answer up to you.

    Well, what I want to know is if:

    I should do the Contest?
    If so, if it should be monthly or weekly or fortnightly even?

    Also, If you are interested and want to be a judge (this means you cannot post a entry if this works though) then just say, Im looking forward to your repies.

    Your Magestically...

    Tom.

    I still think that it is just like LM with minor variations to distant itself from it. Maybe you can PM silverwriter and ask if some of those rules can be intregrated into LM for a few weeks.
    People walk around pushing back their debts,
    Wearing paychecks like necklaces and bracelets,
    Talking ‘bout nothing, not thinking ‘bout death,
    Every little heartbeat, every little breath.

    Yeah, sorry.

    Thought it be a good idea, looks like I should of looked things over.

    What If I put them as a number of challenges that you can choose, and the winner gets the choose the next few. Its near enough the same idea, but goes with 'writing challenges'?

    Yeah, try it. Sounds good.

    try it. the contests in LM seem to take years for the next one to kick off, so if you would update it like weekly/monthly when ever it might be better.

    Yeah, this sounds like fun, especially if it is updated more than LM.
