Well, it always helps to look through the other threads in a section first. For example, try ffnetauthors.proboards29.com/index.cgi?board=42days&action=display&thread=1095714044Also, there's an entire thread dedicated to questions concerning the Challenges. This thread is only for posting your story information according to the challenge guideline. As far as the 'grading/voting' is concerned, I sincerly hope that no one drags people in to do favor-votes. This contest was designed to help authors develope their skills, not run a popularity contest. Feel free to ask all other question in the appropriate thread. Thank you! |

... Sorry if my reply wasn't what you expected.  See, there's nothing wrong with asking questions and being a newbie, but in my book, it's appropriate to at least check out if the information you're looking for is already available.  (Otherwise, why bother with things like an information thread, or a 'Helpdesk' anyway, if no one bothers to use it?)  I'm looking forward to your contest entry. Good luck. |
