Overview.png
This competition will be held at cstyles, you may join here and submit your application image here but the actual competition will be held HERE. Well I'm back, not entirely, but I'm here with a new competition. This competition is a little different than what I've hosted and seen before. In this competition, YOU will be the judge. In this competition, we will have 10 contestants, each will be given a classic childrens story. Every Friday each contestant will submit one chapter of their story. In any one chapter there will be a maximum of 5 photographs and a minimum of 1 photograph allowed. You may submit writing with your chapters, but those of you who can tell your story with photographs alone will receive 10 bonus points for that given chapter/chapters where words were not used. In this competition the winner will be the one contestant with the most points at the end of our 10 week competition. So this means, there will be NO ELIMINATIONS. So before you decide to join, keep in mind you will be in this until the end. A maximum of 7 days and a minimum of 1 day will be given for any extension requested. Once again, this is a NO EDITING competition, meaning, the only thing you are allowed to do with your pictures is anything you can do with picasa. If someone drops the competition before the following chapter is due, I will allow people to take over that specific story as long as they have the following chapter in on time. No extensions will be given for people taking over stories. Any questions, applications, or extension requests must be posted in this thread or they will not be noticed. Each contestant will be given their own thread where they will submit each chapter. Nothing but chapters and scoring will be placed in your given thread, comments may be placed in this thread and this thread alone. Rude comments will not be tolerated.

If you would like to join this competition say so in this thread and I will assign you your fairy tale. Once I have assigned you your fairy tale you will have one week to submit the final part of your application. The final part of your application will be your story cover. The reason I give you a full week to submit your story cover is because this is the most important part of your given fairy tale, this will be the first thing judges see when they click on your thread to read your chapters.





judging.png

Anyone may judge. But if you do judge, you are only allowed to judge one contestant per chapter submission. If there are still chapters to be judged after 48 hours and you have already judged one, you may judge another. When judging you place your scores under the contestant you are judging. Judges may NOT judge on personal taste, they must only judge on how well that person did on their chapter and when leaving comments they must be polite and give constructive criticism if seen fit. If you are a contestant you may not judge any chapters throughout the duration of this competition. The judge form will be as follows, no more, no less.

Story: #/10 points
Creativity: #/10 points
Photography: #/10 points
Bonus Points: 0 or 10 points
(bonus points are given only if words were not used and the pictures told the story well)

    This looks like more work than I have time for.
    I adore you and don't think you should have been booted from the other comp but that's neither here nor there.

    I will be your cheerleader for this though because this idea sounds fabulous!


    P.S. thanks for the compliment :wink:

    Hi! Of course this is still going on, I just keep forgetting I have made a thread here at TS3 as well. I have posted a reminder on my desktop so I can continue to come here each day.

    I'm guessing you haven't gotten your story cover done, which is fine since I haven't been here for a few days. Do you think you can have it in within a week?

    If so, your new due date for your cover is 9/28
