Should we start a Writing Competition??

In the end, it might be some good publicity for SH after that massive banhammer on translations/violators

Yes this might be the right time to promote the original and fan-fics available on SH

What happened with that? I've just now heard about it.

SH banned all the translated work that was being posted on SH

How are we going to spread around that there would be a competition btw?

What happened with that? I've just now heard about it.

Tony went to town on anyone who had been reported as a translated slop peddlers, sending them packing. Pissed off a bunch of readers who didn't know rules were being broken, but now we have more original content showing rather than translated knockoffs

probably a banner on the main site would be my guess... im only an ideas guy when it comes to website stuff

 

[Fairemont]

Are any of us even good enough to be in a writing competition?

Wait, do we actually need permission from the staff to host a competition? I mean, there most likely wouldn't be any rewards, but bragging rights would be enough for some to join.(This is to stay within the rules if there are any over this sort of thing) I'm just wondering about this.

You can always start a competition. I don’t think Tony will make it official unless a person he trusts handles the competition. Alverost got too busy with life to hold any competitions.

Neither did a lot of folks back then. So many complained that Tony finally devised Trending to get Ace and... other covers off of the front page for a change.

Ace proposed to have his novels hidden from the rankings even before the trending algorithm changed.

@Tony

Hi Tony, never talked with you before, but someone had to try and catch your attention... Apparently, the masses would like another writing competition. You in?

Tony doesn’t check forum pings.

Is that what happened? Memory is foggy about the specifics.

So how would we get a staff members attention?

Well, I chatted with him in SHcord and he mentioned it several times.

You might be surprised how good you are in a field of amateurs. /shrug

I mean, I plan on launching one of the worlds I explored in my fanfic DEN as its own standalone this summer/fall on Amazon. I did a fanfic of my own unpublished AVN, and my readers loved it.

When we tell The staff they can make changes in the OG website that Competition has started to on the front page conpetition poster willbe displayed

Ask the active mods?

 

[L1aei]

Well, I chatted with him in SHcord and he mentioned it several times.

I argued with Ace a few times, apologized, argued again, and I think we agreed on both of us miscommunicating with each other. Then that little pup got popular. After that... I haven't clue. I spoke with him before the boom of that novel of his.

I can’t remember if there was ever a poster to advertise any competitions.
