Lol Aquadrop just post it no matter what lol ITS NOT THAT EASY ALL OF WAS WRITTEN IN TINY BITS AT 5AM EVERYDAY, IT SUCKS SO BAD AND MY BRAIN IS NOT WORKING ANYMORE Well, one of the judge's brains is pretty much not working anymore too, so that could work in your favor. Hell, if your fic has something profound to say about the inter-temporal distortions induced by Scandinavian unemployment-insurance programs, I'll award you first place here and now (I'm willing to fight my co-judges on this) - and give you your post-count back as a bonus - 'cause that would save me a hell of a lot of time getting ready for these conferences...

After reading, each judge will grant the story in question between 1 and 10 points in six categories: 1) Use of theme 2) Creativity and originality 3) Character quality 4) Spelling and grammar 5) Plot 6) Overall enjoyment from reading Out of curiosity, where does prose quality fit in these criteria? 👀

I feel spelling and grammar serve a different purpose entirely, but that's just me. Part of the reason I asked, really.
Overall enjoyment could partially fit, perhaps, but something tells me that's also somewhat independent.

MagmarFire - Well we came up with those six with little thought to be honest. We might add it in there or swap one of them out, but as of this moment it's being lumped under the idea of grammar even if your reasoning makes sense. Though as I stated to the other two, my own opinion of that comes from a guy who ironically hates the ins and outs of writing English and led to my general hatred of writing anything non-scientific. Hell I even had to double check if what I thought prose meant was what it is. If things change we'll give an announcement, but the mention is appreciated whether the conditions change or not. As for "Overall Enjoyment", I kinda worded that one myself to just give us a spot that is a catch all personal opinion section. I'm sure we've all read an example where the story is objectively bad in a number of ways but enjoyed the hell out of it. And as a preface, just to clear up the unlikely event that someone thought I was referencing their story in particular, I haven't done more than a quick scan through of any of the stories so I'm not speaking in particulars with this. And also to emphasize the point, to all here, if you have any questions or comments about our scale, or anything for that matter, feel free to speak up. We only bite the heads of every third dissenter.
