RETURN OF THE WRITE-OFF CONTEST

I don't think we've ever done this on RMN before, but I used to have a blast with these on the MS Paint Adventures forums and figured I'd see if I can't bring the popularity back here.

Here's how it's going to work: we need three volunteers to provide the theme, the characters, and the setting (if you provide one of these things you can't participate in the contest). These will all be PMed to the person running the write-off (me) and I will post all requirements at once when the contest begins.

Once the theme, characters and setting are known, people can post saying they want to be a contestant. The first two people to do so will be the "official" contestants. Other people can submit entries but they will not be considered official for the purposes of the contest (I will post unofficial entries when official voting ends).

Both participants will write their story incorporating the given theme/characters/setting, and PM their entries to me. I will then post them both at the same time. At this point anyone can vote on which entry was their favourite.

The entry with most votes will win, and the writer of the entry will carry on as the current write-off champion to participate in the next event against a new challenger.

I've probably made it sound more complex than it actually is, so if anyone has any questions please let me know. If you're interested in participating in this, please post here so I have an idea of how receptive the community would be to an event like this.

(Also no achievements or avatars unless someone else can provide them unfortunately, but I can do an RGSS/RGSS2/RGSS3 script request for the winners or something.)
