@Crimmy

fuck off already

[NaraK]

@Forsythe rip

I may try to come up with something then

[FlitterFaux]

If I knew how the hell to run one of these contest things I might give it a go, but alas. People better than I should be running these things, though if I could learn.... ~shrug~

@Crimmy

You don't even SPEND them.

[HereComesTheSnow]

We have plans

[FlitterFaux]

We have plans

@HereComesTheSnow

Why does that sound ominous to me?

[HereComesTheSnow]

It'd be ominous if I put a period.

This one's hard. I will be posting this in the Contest of Champions thread soon.

Contest #32 – Six-Day Writing Challenge

Judge: NarayanK
Type: Short Story

Deadline: July 5

Your task is to write a short story before the deadline. You may write about anything, whether it be about a moment in your character’s background, or something you just came up with that you thought could be interesting or thought-provoking. The key thing here is to not detract from the topic you decide to write upon.

The length of your story will determine the number of credits you will receive.

• Participation = 1 Credit
• 1K Words = 1 Credit
• 5K Words = 2 Credits
• 20K Words and beyond = 3 Credits

All submissions will be given commentary or feedback from me.

If you half-ass your entry and try to avoid the word limit with formatting, you will not receive any credits. There will be no extensions to the deadline, and that’s final.

This contest rewards you for your dedication in writing for Heroes of Beacon in general, so I'd love to see you put your hearts into this.

If less than 3 people participate, no Participation awards will be given.

[Abillioncats]

I'm not sure how I'd even manage to make an entry between work and the holiday that's smack in the middle of this contest tbh.

[HereComesTheSnow]

>under 15k

ah shit....

[FlitterFaux]

XD I'm out

[NaraK]

@HereComesTheSnow I'm certain you can write something under 15k. It's good practice to condense potentially massive content, though I've had people argue the contrary a lot.

Redacted. See my comment below

Looking at the contest again, it seems unreasonably demanding to some who are busier than others. I still want to reward those who write quality content sufficiently however, so I may alter the requirements in a bit.

I may also remove the word limit.

[HereComesTheSnow]

That was a joke

Not even Fukkatsu was 15k

[FlitterFaux]

Yeah, busy and time limit don't mix. Personally though my level of skill is the problem. I'm not very smart, nor am I a great writer. Honestly I rather doubt I'll be earning many credits through contests. No worries, though.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Never know until you try.
