Well, I simply want to judge on two reasons:
1) I don't feel like actually writing anything, even though I know exactly what I would write.
and 2) I'm pretty much the only person in the guild (no offense) that I know can keep a time schedule of their own choosing. Meaning If I say 8 pm EST, i mean no later than 8:05 pm EST.

Two valid reasons to have you judge.
If you want though we can have intrested guild members post their reasons why they should be the judge in a temp forum and then us higher ups elect the judge from those aplicants.

I don't care really.
FP's got to get on the ball if he wants to do that. I've got other things I'm working on currently to organize something.

The idea of short stories appeals to me but for the 50g part. If prizes are involved, sure, but I wouldn't pay for crap anyways. ( I'm cheap like that. ) However, I'd still want to make one just to do it, and it won't have to be involved in being judged or anything, but rather, just there for the sake of being there. I'm thinking a comedy one...

Being cheap is not paying 500g. Being a miser is not payign 50g.
You make more than that in an hour. Its not worth participating in a contest with prizes or wasting time to get something read during a said contest if you can't give something up.
Seriously, 50g is not that much.
You can get a sponser if you'd like. Someone willing to pay the entry fee for you.

Neither is paying 500g just for evaluation.
If you got a better prize for the same entry price, then name the product.
But I can garuntee that a 500g entry fee will limit the number of submissions to about... 2.

Well of course there would be a prize.
I was thinking 1st place gets.... 2500 gold or more depending on entrants.
2nd gets Free Avi edit.
3rd gets less money?

How many people do you think will actually pay 500 gold to enter?
I offered lotto tickets for 2 gold a piece, with a prize of 1k, and only two participated. for one week.
Not enough people are going to sign up for 500g to even hit the mark for the 2500 prize.
You'd need five people to break even. Considering I'm not participating, and DA won't pay that much, that means the regulars left are AC, ND, you, Oryo, and several others. and taking the high chance that Oryo and several others won't participate, that leaves a very thin margin to even break even.
Let's say that cale, you, AC, ND all join up. You still haven't made the cut.
I'd be more worried about getting enough participants. Come up with five people capable, willing, and will do it, and then I'll withdraw this statement. Until then, consider the prize versus the cost.
edit: You also need to post in LoP.

Here's something just for the heck of it.
A REALLY short SW story...
A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, s**t happened.
Sith Lord: Excellent! With my new uber galactic domination station, I will rule the galaxy!
Jedi Master: Not if I can help it! * destroys the uber galactic domination station *
Sith Lord: F*** you! * is beaten *
Republic: Horray! We are like saved and stuff!

Well if it was a chance to win that much money....I dunno if I would. I guess it'd depend on how many people enter. If 5 or less people entered I would enter myself.
Although if it was poetry...which I feel more like doing...THAT I would happily pay 500g for. I used to have a great poem about the superiority of the Sith that got lost.... crying crying
