The votes are in, and the decision is made. We're going to have a writing
contest! Before I get to the details, I'll show you want you'll be competing for:


User Image

This little guy is going for anywhere from 11 000 to 15 000 in the Market!

Details:..................................................................................................
Okay, so the goal is to write a piece in the form of a poem or a short
story. Short stories should be five hundred words long (which may be too
short, so you're allowed to go over). Both the poem and the short stories,
in order to qualify must be about The Dead Guild: It's people, settings,
history, happenings, et cetera. The judges of the contest will be the Guild
Members themselves. We'll all be voting on what our favorite piece is.

Entry Date: ......................................................................................................
P.M. your entry to
[ Jizo Bosatsu] and once they are all collected, they will
be posted simultaneously with a collection of the links to those threads
here. You will also then see a poll appear here with which you can vote for
your favorite piece.

Have your entries in by December 13th at the latest. If I receive all
entries before that time, then I'll begin the contest earlier. I just want to
make sure to give people enough time to put together something that they
feel is quality material. I don't want to rush anyone.

Voting will remain open for four weeks afterward to allow for people who
are less active to vote for their favorite piece. After the votes have been
tallied, the winners will be announced and the prize will be distributed.

Important! ......................................................................................
Because of the length of time that this Writing Contest will be in
preparation, the First Prize could very well grow to include other items and
even gold. We could even see the addition of a Second and Third Place, if
there is enough participation and prize-worthy items to go around! :]

Good luck!

Just to let everyone know, if I do use you in my short story, don't get mad if it doesn't sound at all like you.
I haven't exactly been here all that long. ^^;;

Oh, I won't enter my story into the contest. I'll post it, but it won't be
something that people can vote for. It'll just be for the fun of it. ^.^

I'll work on the poem later.
Does it matter how many versus there are? And is it like, comedy, or serious, or a story?

It doesn't really matter, no. And it can be any genre you like.

I have some bad news. There's were only two pieces entered into the contest. It's not of a contest that way. Also, because of a glitch, the prize does not exist. It's there in my inventory but it only sometimes registers as "Image Not Found". I've submitted a thread to the Q&A forum, but so far there are no fixes for it. Boo-urns.

Tis okay, I didn't really want a prize anyway. You could just show the works off for everyone to read instead.
