LI Storywriting contest - Brainstorming

[Nájlá]

Oh....I dont think we'll be posting them....they'll be PM'd to the judges

Nah not mods....some mods arent interested in writing etc so they wouldnt be able to do the entries justice by voting

aww why arnt u posting them imsad

 

[Pen Marks]

Sounds kool....although....How long is 1000 words on MW??

If thats agreed upon by you guys then thats fine

about 1 page and a bit i think i'm not sure

 

[IbnAbdulHakim]

the judges can post all the stories later after the winners have been picked

thats like kicking them when their down


its better to post every story, have people say "what a nice story" and then vote the winner



IMHO

 

[Güven]

^YES I AGREE

but the judges , has to be fair!!!!

 

[Re.TiReD]

yes ok soo....Judges, the word limit, the theme with an islamic moral ??

Yups....Get yer pens ready

the judges can post all the stories later after the winners have been picked

yeh either way I guess....But the bro has a point...we have summin to do whilst judges are voting

 

[Pen Marks]

but the judges , has to be fair!!!!

have akhi not has

yeah are they gona nominate them selves or is someone gona pick them?

 

[Nájlá]

okkkk can someone sum all this up?

soo what are the rules?

 

[Re.TiReD]

Arghhh! lol

Ok....

Entries can/will be posted insha'Allah.

Judging will be fair.....I know that bias may get in the way so what I was thinking is that you can PM your entry to me... like with the poems, and then I'll pass on to the judges so at least that way they wont know which entry belongs to whom. So they cant vote for ppl they like kinda fing :-[

Because, I had some people saying that if so and so had entered I wudda voted for them coz I like em :-\ lol

 

[IbnAbdulHakim]

then

we can allocate a middle person - middle person sends stories to judges aswell as posting publicly - judges vote



i think that sounds well and good !

 

[Re.TiReD]

We'll see if anybody volunteers...just have to see how that part works out insha'Allah.

Ok...sooo

Theme: Anything Islamic

Length: 1000 words min and 2000 words max

And we'll have a panel to judge Insha'Allah.

That ok?

gooooooood idea

 

[Pen Marks]

great mashallah ^ we agreed on this one faster then the poetry one lol

 

[Re.TiReD]

Alhamdulillah.

You got any suggestions on how long you'd like to write the story etc?

 

[Pen Marks]

a week for writing and five days for the judges or less

 

[Nájlá]

a week?

 

[Güven]

yes a week is fine !!

 

[Nájlá]

oh yeh can i say someone that should be a judge??

 

[Pen Marks]

a week?

lol is it too much or to little time? i think its good :-[

 

[Re.TiReD]

I am tempted to disagree with a week.

Some people had trouble submitting the poem within a week because they had other commitments, I'd think that with a story you'd need more time than a poem? Wallahu A'lam
