Word to the Wise, Keep Your Eye on the Prize

(I was told to make this topic here for now by Artemis, and if anything the Admins will move it as they see fit.)

 

Welcome to a little something I like to call "Word to the Wise, Keep Your Eye on the Prize"! I'm asking for any and all aspiring fan fiction writers to step up to the plate, whether rookie or expert. If you're new then along with a fun time you'll gain experience, if you're a veteran then you'll get to put your skills to the test! This is not only a game, but a personal dojo in which you can hone and view your potential. If you've ever seen the show Survivor or the animated parody of it, Total Drama, it's kinda like that.

 

For the next day, (Or days, depends on how fast or slow the process goes) I'll allow anyone to register. Once the games begin, nobody will be able to join but they may get a shot if this is successful and I decide to do it again. So, every week I will provide a topic, theme, etc. that you all must write a short My Little Pony fanfic about (Min. characters: 5,000 Max: 25,000). I may also add a special twist or constraint to each round. If a majority of contestants are not finished within the alloted time I may extend the deadline. However if all finish earlier, then the round will end earlier as well. After I've received everyone's stories through Private Messaging I will send them to all contestants to read. I'll supply ample time so you may read all of the stories submitted. Once read, you shall privately message me a vote onto who you think had the best story, and no. You can't vote for yourself. The winner will be notified and then message me who they want eliminated from the game. That person shall not be allowed to compete any longer and the winner is immune from elimination for the next round. The next round begins. This will continue until two competitors remain, in which they will write a final fan fic each. After which, all previously eliminated contestants will vote for an ultimate winner.

 

Now let it be known this will not be easy. You have to remain dedicated, able to write a relatively large amount of work without cracking under the pressure. You'll also have to be able to dedicate yourself to reading ALL fan fics entered. If you do not meet the deadline, and I do not allow extended time then you and all others who were late will be at risk of elimination, and all who completed their stories will be safe. Finally, let it be known that alliances may be formed, as this type of game entails. I am fine with that as long as you still follow the rules. If this becomes successful I may host it again some other time.

 

So, please register if you feel up to the task. If you have any questions then ask away. So, work hard, improve upon yourself and most importantly, have fun!

Anypony else care to put their ability to the test? Don't be afraid to ask if I can raise or lower the max/min characters for the story. I'm accommodating.
