Completed Small Writing Competition

Small Writing Competition!

Judged by Bay, bobandbill, and gimmepie.

Welcome everyone to the Small Writing Competition! The gist is simple - write a story based on the prompt, and submit it to the judges before the deadline.

Rules

1.) Follow PC's rules and Fanfiction and Writing's rules.
2.) Stories written for this competition must be completely new. In other words, they must not have been written before. You also are not allowed to post it anywhere else until judging is over. Having someone beta read your entry prior to submission in private is allowed.
3.) You must PM your entries to all of the judges. (This is so if someone loses their PMs the others still have them and so forth). The judges in question are Bay, bobandbill, and gimmepie. You also must post in this thread when you send your PMs so we can confirm you did send us an entry.
4.) One entry per member only, sorry.
5.) You have until 11:59pm EST, October 20 to get your entry in.
6.) The story can be based on Pokemon, another fandom, or be original fiction. Note the judges may not all be familiar with any other fandoms.
7.) The entry can only be a completed one-shot as this is a small writing competition - no chaptered entries, please! There is no word limit.

Once the scores are posted and the competition is over, you may post your story in Fanfiction and Writing so that others may see it. Make sure to add [SWC] to your title if you do!

If you have any other questions, ask away!

Scoring and Prompt

Each entry can have a maximum score of 30, with the points broken down into three categories equaling 10 points in total like in previous years. The categories are:

Spelling and Grammar
Characterization, Plot, and Description
Relevance to Prompt

Each participant will receive 10 points when their entry is sent in. Furthermore, the top three places will earn additional points as detailed below.

First: 100pts
Second: 50pts
Third: 25pts

Additionally, the team with the most submissions at the end will earn a bonus 50 points!

The prompt is past, present and future. You can use one, two or all three elements of the prompt in your story. Good luck!

The prompt is past, present and future. You can use one, two or all three elements of the prompt in your story. Good luck!

Just to check. Are we graded differently depending on how many of the three elements of the prompt we use, or only on the Relevance to Prompt of the elements we do use?

Only relevance to the part(s) of the prompt you use.

Hello! I would really like to join in. I'm on Team Arqueros!

[5qwerty]

I wasn't gonna enter cuz I don't have time (I still don't). I then realized that I was a degenerate and would do anything for some few more points, so I wanted to enter with a massive high-effort shitpost. Then I actually got an idea, so I might write that. If I run out of time I'm still making a long shitpost though.

That's the spirit! Also the more stories, the merrier.

 

[Kitty]

I'm joining (and submitted) my thing because like 5qwerty I too am a degenerate and would do anything for points
Guerreros btw

Chr. Draco (Arqueros)

This is incorrect, Chr. Draco is a Guerreros member.

 

[gimmepie]

This is incorrect, Chr. Draco is a Guerreros member.

Ah right. This has been brought to my attention already, I just forgot to change the OP to match.
