'poster inclusive' judging format suggestions in the 2010 Competion or still judges only voting?"
The winner of the Prose Comp 2009 was Bosse de Nage.

Here, read this thread: Thread 112330.

It'll be the first Prose Competition thread that you've ever read.

There has always been forum poster inclusion in voting ever since I started the first Prose Competition back in 2004 or so. I don't know what your "suggestion" is. There has never been "judges only voting".

You are very much not welcome to troll and spam the prose competition threads because you deliberately wasted all of the judges' time by acting like an idiot in the judges forum during the last competition which is why you were fired by the judging panel.

We are trying to provoke interesting and expressive creativity here on RHP where people can put their writing talents on display for everyone's enjoyment. We do not need your vapid input, nor your feigned interest. If you would like to ruin a good thing for your amusement, then look elsewhere.

Thanks, Hop, for stepping in as Tim's mouthpiece. So a forum

'poster/judge' fusion sort of voting format in 2010. Good job.

I, hereby, would like to voice my concern for the feasibility
of this competition regarding its appropriateness for publics
such as the youngest one.

My position, of course, could change if instead of Devil-related
subjects we could, for example, set as main subject 'herpes'
or 'I got raped in the Betty Ford Center'.

Thanks for considering this humble request.

Regards,
Rasputin McRae

The Guidelines


"The following twelve points are the guidelines that should be followed when posting to the forums.


Discussions in forums can often get heated, but while you may take issue with another poster's viewpoint, you must

not resort to personal attacks or abuse. Do not post offensive or inflammatory remarks that stray beyond the bounds

of reasoned debate. Calling another poster an "idiot" will leave a post subject to immediate removal."

Meaningless word modification, rampant subjectivity and unbridled feelings are so

inconsequential. Facts and principles matter. As to participation, I haven't decided.

How about not acting so bitter about your justifiable expulsion from the last prose competition, let it go, allow us to have a competition without you filling up every thread with nonsense, and walk away and attempt some humility for once? That is not too much to ask.

Simple inquiry, Hopscotch, which Tim chose to play around with rather than answer.

Restated them. Still ignored, until you graciously spoke for him. Thanks again.

Hm, mine doesn't either. I hadn't noticed because I never use it anyway.

Edit: The "Message" link doesn't work either.
