AssalamuAlaykum Warahmatullah

A sister suggested we have another, yay or nay?

WassalamuAlaykum Warahmatullah

**Re.TiReD** · 04-06-2009

Can I finalise a date please do that I can make it official? I quite like May 8th but April 21st seems appealing also. It gives 2 weeks to write. I'm aware of the fact that I'd not entering though so it doesnt affect me, which is why I want the opinion of the 10 who said they'd take part

**Al-Zaara** · 04-06-2009

May 8th.

**Yanal** · 04-06-2009

^thats too late for a story with no minimum words so...April 21 is good for me.

**Al-Zaara** · 04-06-2009

^ Too late you say? What's the rush?

**Re.TiReD** · 04-06-2009

I understand where you're coming from - both of you.

Yanal I agree with because in the past we've had far tooo much time to enter and the processes after that and inbetween. Was rather tiring and tooo long to deal with

And Al-Zaara, I know ppl want longer to work on their masterpieces...so...Hmm I'll sit this one out until somebody else gives an opinion.

**Yanal** · 04-06-2009

If it's too long something in the world is going to stop it from happening such as the comedy contest,we set dates far apart and this is what happened the contest got closed. PS I can't reply after this because I'm going to SKOOL!(I know it's spelled wrong leave it)

**Silver Pearl** · 04-07-2009

I think a set marking criteria would be good. Members can choose their favourite stories and the top 3 candidates can be marked using the criteria?

How about having Contest II [part 1 and 2] and there can be two deadlines and if you enter the first you can't enter the second, vice versa? You can either have 2 winners or the 2 winners can battle it out?

**Yanal** · 04-07-2009

Interesting but who are the judges? I would like to write my story for this contest , even though I have my French due and haven't finished it <_<.

**Silver Pearl** · 04-07-2009

I don't know if there will be any judges, I just assumed there would be.

Ah, French, those were the blissful days

. Learn your verb tables and Inshaa'Allaah you'll be fine.

Thought it was no judges, there's to be a poll and set criteria for choosing the story. It'll be moderated by an admin hopefully.
Who's in charge of making the thread though?
Will that also be the duty of the admin?

**Cabdullahi** · 04-07-2009

**Yanal** · 04-08-2009

What will I get to start the thread? Obviously I am not an admin<_<.

**Re.TiReD** · 04-08-2009

Yanal u shud PM muezzin, get the go-ahead from him and then make the thread insha'Allah

**Yanal** · 04-08-2009

**Yanal** · 04-09-2009

He has not replied.

**Muezzin** · 04-10-2009

Hang about. What thread do you want to create?

The one that will house all the entries?

If so, has the deadline and word count been finalised?

**Yanal** · 04-10-2009

Yes,the deadline is going to be during April 21-may 8 but users have to vote for the deadline and word count would be 400 maximum.

**Na7lah** · 04-10-2009

400?? i thought it was going to be in the thousands?

**Yanal** · 04-10-2009

Typo sorry it is suppose to be 4000,so is it confirmed as I need to know as soon as possible because I have to open the thread,make an opening speech and type my own story. Confirm the details for me :4000 words maximum,April 25 deadline?
