@whitemosquito, is Jan 24th not a bit too far? Competitions that span for long periods tend to be boring. Or would there be activities in between?

The competition itself will be over by 10th. All entrants will be required to do will be to check in intermittently to know the status of their entries...
It is the JUDGING itself that will continue, behind the scenes.

I did it like that cos I anticipate quite a number of entries...and my judges are all busy people..I want them to have enough time to give their best. I do not wish to overburden them at any point. Also why I broke it into three stages... But these are just my opinions.
What do you feel?

I suggest the moderator should pitch the other thread to the top of the section page so as to avoid its going into obscurity since it has been locked.

whats happening here..? grin
Re: About Whitey's Flash Fiction Challenge *comment Thread* by whitemosquito(f): 7:55am On Dec 25, 2014
@ daveP, Merry Christmas right back at you. For jara, add a prosperous New year.
Please clarify what you mean by homework..

Repogirlie, hugs and kisses! Im more glad you're part of it.

Royver, please check in. As per what we discussed, get ur nimble fingers to work already na. Post on all those your 'customer' sites.
Cc yuzedo, I don't mind having it on the magamaga.com.

You could simply skip the intro to the competition, copy the general guidelines and relevant info..then paste a link to the thread for further details.
We need as much publicity as we can get, otherwise the purpose of the competition would be defeated.
Thanks.

Was actually referring to repogirl regarding a private issue we v got, and not you mademoiselle. That was why I quoted her, sorry I did that on your thread.
