Writing Contest
I'm not sure if this goes here or in Community Projects, but I thought this would be a fun idea. Submissions should be less than a page (if you typed it in a word processer w/ times new roman). It can be a prose story, or a poem. Entries are to be judged by me and two other people, who have not yet been picked. Prizes are:
3rd place: A pretend ribbon (and 9000)
2nd place: A make-believe certificate (and 15,000)
1st place: A written (on this topic) paragraph of recignition (and 30,000)
Jokes (however funny you find them) aside, this is a serious contest (although humor entries are accepted). Feel free to base them off screenshots, although you should probably post those too.
Try to keep them PG-13, and without flaming.
--Poem Example-- A possible judge wanted "an example," so I took a screenshot of me getting tailed by 8 station bots, and wrote:
All those little red dots
Are the incompetent [insert nation here] bots
Yes, the prizes aren't *great* but this is really for fun. So start posting!

I request to be a judge.
Okay, but the judges were all gonna split the payment of prizes (and each judge composes one of the psuedo-physical prises ;-) ). So you'd pay 18,000
Heh... I can manage that. I could probably pay all of it.
So could I, but I'd rather not :D
Anyway...back to the contest!

There. I'm the only one who gave a writing piece so I think I win. So i'll take 54,000 credits as my reward. (I believe I won 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place) Thank you for your genorosity in the liberal arts, Smittens. Now I want my rewards!
=p

Nobody said the contest even started.
This should be moved in Role Playing.
And I want to participate. Not for the money though. But it's a nice offer.
We need more complete rules:
- Length of story
- imposed subject if any
- Contest start and finish
- A list of rules by wich the story will be juged: eg extra points for style, grammar, non-use of "[nation] sucks".
