How does it work for this competition?

It doesn't really make any difference apart from the entries being a bit more anonymous but of course Vandervelde would know who had written what.

I'm a bit confused by this as I always submitted my entry to silver striker who then posted them anonymously. The private message can be done through the RHP messaging I'm assuming. In any event does anyone know where this stands at this point?

Do you mean you emailed your entries to Silverstriker?

I answered all that to you in PM that is Private Message.
I also intend to post entries anonymously, only with serial number.
It's been less then a week since I offered to organize new competition (I would like however if silverstriker changed his mind and continue to do this), so let's wait until there is enough contestors. We need about 6 more, I think.

Shortetr texts may be pm´ed whilst longer oens can be uploaded here:::

But first step is to find put if there is enough competitors.

It is your say now. If at leas ...[text shortened]... to submit their work(s) - one is allowed to 3 (three) entries - so we can start the competition.

If texts are uploaded there, there are also anonymous.
It is only for entries longer than PM capacity, that is, entries of 800 words.
But if you prefer, I can also accept mailed entries, just ask for address on PM.

And by the way, I suppose you would need time to write it?

Could write mine in an afternoon. Just need a purring cat and a flask of strong black coffee. (You should though give a reasonable deadline).

I'm in. Is there a deadline yet or are you waiting for the 12 to enter before moving any further?

I am waiting for at least 10 (it would be nice to have at least 12).
it's been ca. 10 days since I started the thread, so let's suppose people are still celebrating Trump's victory.

Is there a specific theme or subject? (too tired to read the whole thread)

If we are to stay at 800 words, why would we need that uploadedit thing? Have question on that though: I have only 'open office' on my home comp, not Word, if I had to upload to that site would open office be compatible?
