Rules for Entering - Fiction

BEFORE ENTERING you must read through these rules and follow them when making out your entry. Any entry that does not follow these rules and regulations will not be considered for judging, nor will the artist be informed. It is your responsibility to make sure your entrie(s) follow these rules before you submit.

¤ LIMIT 1 ENTRY PER PERSON ¤
Unlike the Artistic version of this contest, the written contest only allows for one entry.

¤ ALL FORMS ACCEPTED ¤
Drama, Comedy, Sci-Fi, Lemon, it doesn't matter. As long as it's readable, it'll be accepted.

¤ NO PORN ¤
I have no problem with +14 material being written, but please mark it as such. If you feel the need to write a mild lemon, go right ahead. But execute commen sense. No rape, no tenticles (unless used for humor), no underaged sex, etc.

¤ MUST BE .TXT OR .HTML ¤
Please don't send in .doc or .wps or any other format. My computer won't be able to read them, and I look over all entries before handing them over to the judges.

¤ SIZE DOES MATTER ¤
While I won't require you to have an exact number of pages, please be resonable. Between 5 to 10 pages is a good solid length (about the size of a normal book chapter) to write a short-story.

¤ CHARACTERS TO USE ¤
It doesn't matter which of the series it follows. I'll accept the origanal, X, Legends, RM Zero, RMZX, Starforce, or EXE series. Fan-made characters are allowed, but please make sure to tell me who they are and which series they belong to.


¤ ¤ ¤ SUBMIT! ¤ ¤ ¤
ALL entries must be submitted to my g-mail account. If your submission goes to any other e-mail, then it will be discarded. I've been fairly nice about this in the past, but this year there's no buts about it. I don't have time to reply to every entry sent to the wrong space.

¤ ¤ ¤ JUDGING ¤ ¤ ¤
Since I know so many of the people who enter this contest, I've cast myself out as a judge. Instead, judging is performed by a select group of my friends who know almost no one in the contest. This way the judging is fair and just. However, all decisions are final, and I cannot change what they decide so weedling to me will get you nowhere (as one person found out already). Judging will begin the week after July 30th, with the results posted in the August update. Any entries submitted after July 30th will be put in the contest folder for the next year ((where they have a good chance of getting lost in a years time)). If you know your entry is going to be late, let me know before hand and I'll see if I can hold off the judging.

¤ ¤ ¤ PRIZES ¤ ¤ ¤
There is no real prize for winning the contest. Your name and piece of art will be prominately displayed on the front page, but other then that, there is no real prize for winning.
