Writing competitions?

[Creamy Goodness]

This sounds like it could be loads of fun. We had such a thing on the small board I used to run and the winner was determined by a vote of the other members. Don't know if that is anything to consider here.

We had a few different people run it on the last forum. When I did it, the plan was to have a panel of three judges decide on a winner and then the next month have it be decided by the rest of the forum members voting on it. I think it got cancelled before we actually did the voting since we only had one entry (mine) and nobody else had time for it. But the original plan was switch off every month, judges one month and voting the next.

So far I count three definite entries, one maybe (I never really know with Fish), and one judge. I'd enter and/or be a judge if we were short on that. So I'd like to see at least another five to six people say that they were interested in entering and at least one more person want to be a judge; two preferably. If we can get that, I'd like to start our first competition on August 1st and have it run the entire month with the results being posted August 31st.
