Issues Contest: Third Time Lucky?

But can i still post it in this section as a topic?

by **Sedgistan** » Fri Nov 07, 2014 2:22 am

You can post it here for feedback/advice if you want. However, when it's ready and you want to submit it, you'll need to email it.

Thank you.

I'll look forward to submitting an issue for this. :ugeek:

by **New Kvenland** » Fri Nov 07, 2014 7:59 am

Interesting. I will ponder over this.

by **Soled** » Fri Nov 07, 2014 9:12 am

Maybe i'll try.

I have got a few questions.
Firstly, can I take part if my population hasn't reached 500 million, and I cannot make issues yet?
If I become an Issues Editor, will I be able to write my own issues? If yes, will they get immediately in the game? And if I become an Issues Editor, will my "registration issue" get into the game, or will I have to write it again on the issue writing page?
Thanks for helping!

Yes, yes (same as anyone), no, yes but it might need some editing first.

Oh, oh, this sounds like a lot of fun.
I'll have to try think of something that's only moderately silly, though, which may be tough.
Anyway, I should be able to avoid making any common misteaks.

Seems like fun, I'm in

I recently submitted an issue (and by recently, I want to say, three to six months ago). Can I resubmit it as a contest entry?

by **Sedgistan** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 12:14 pm

I assume we a prohibited from drafting our contest-issues in the Got Issues? forum to submit them after peer-review. Correct me if I am wrong.

EDIT: I'll also assume that the creation of issues and putting them up in the forum for writing practice for the contest(but no submitting them in the contest) is acceptable.

by **Sporaltryus** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 12:53 pm

Could our issue be ~~seasonal~~ annual?

Thank you, I assumed it would be a sort of abuse of the forum, since its suppose to be solely yours.

Didn't you say that there wouldn't be another contest?

I'll try out for it anyway, I probably will fail, but it's worth a shot.

Several times, in fact!

by **Sedgistan** » Sun Nov 09, 2014 2:39 am

A quick update on the contest - the last one received 70 entries over the near-3 months that it was running for. This time, we've received 72 entries in under 5 days!

If you're looking to enter, but haven't sent your issue yet, don't worry - there's still plenty of time until the contest closes, and there's no rush to enter.

RARRRRH. *rushes to enter*

Nah, just had time to do it now. This month is essay-cram time. :clap:

Alright, say that I win. How much time would being an Issues Moderator take out of my daily schedule?

As much as you let it.

It states that they work at their own pace, thus implicating that you'd work only as much as you want to. (Work nonetheless.)

As much or as little as you want. Obviously we want people who are going to be reasonably active, but it is a volunteer gig.

You wouldn't be a moderator though. You'd be an Issues Editor. We have absolutely no authority or modly powers.

Okay. That's good, because if this was supposed to be a full-time thing, then I would be out.
