GSR Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 A friendly (read: dramatic and forceful) heads-up that the Ninjago Monster Contest is still on-going, and will be until this Friday! We recommend (read: directly command) that if you're a wordy type, you give it a shot - either here in Comedies, or over in Short Stories! FAQ: Who do I talk to if I have questions about entering a story?Post 'em here! Or PM me. Or Kakaru. Or Zatth. You've got a lot of options, frankly. What are the rules? 1. Please follow all existing rules for the forum you post your entry in. Here are quick links to Short Stories rules and Comedies rules.2. Please contain your stories within one post. Comedies may only have one chapter, and short stories must be kept in one post.3. You are allowed to edit your story until the entry period ends.4. There are no word-count limits. But please be advised that, the longer your story is, the less likely voters are to read it.5. No epics. Aren't those basically the rules from last year? Oh, I get it. When cities recycle it's "eco-friendly" and "resourceful", but when we do it it's "cutting corners" and "not actually comparable in any way shape or form". Why is this only showing up like four days before the deadline? Because I am a Bad Person™. Why did you copy and paste this into a Comedies topic as well? To make sure Comedies people see it too. Also see previous answer. Go forth and write! Quote Hey: I'm not very active around BZP right now.

25K Now! Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 This was a thing? Huh, better see if I have motivation to write. Quote http://vimeo.com/198967785 BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Windrider- Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 This was a thing? I am curious - it's been on the front page twice, in GD for a few weeks, on social media...the only place left to advertise was in the Comedies forum itself. I don't mean to sound accusatory; I really do want to ask if we can advertise contests more effectively in the future, and how. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25K Now! Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I usually don't pay attention to GD and the front page much, so I'm probably an outlier. The countdowns on the board index do blend into the background a bit though. Quote http://vimeo.com/198967785 BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltex Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Perhaps if there's a way to create some sort of overlay or banner that would display at the very top of the page in every forum? That would certainly help, as anyone not using the mobile skin would see that a contest is on. Quote JOIN AETHERGARDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishers64 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 There is: I've seen one used before, for Chima month, etc. I guess the staff have been too busy lately. Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25K Now! Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Yeah, an overlay would be a bit more noticeable. Quote http://vimeo.com/198967785 BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSR Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 Yeah, I'm... actually not sure why we didn't have one, especially given Chima month did. Bit of a miss on our part.

-Windrider- Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Just want to say that, if you're a fast writer, you have about three hours left to pad the Library section of the entry list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
