Welcome!


<img:stuff/moorndivider2.jpg>


Ok, I have no idea where the idea of this came from, but this is yet another contest wiki! Yay!
The main overlying theme obviously is, "If I were a (insert noun here)" but also, to switch things around, the less basic more specific themes will be added. I think for now I'll just do one and if it gets big enough, I'll do more per month.

The Prize? First, second and third will receive their own
badges(which I swear I'll get made up. I'll put them up as soon as I do) as well as a participation badge.
1st place will also be featured on the page for a week in which voting for a new theme will take place. The suggestions for new theme will be taken at any time when voting for a new theme isn't going on and I suggest you do give me theme ideas cause otherwise you'll get stuck voting on my theme ideas, which all are pretty much creativity-starved. I'm no good with themes.

Now for everyones' favorite part . . . .

Rules!


1) You may only enter your own work. No exceptions.

2) Do not be rude, in any way, shape or form

3) No less than 100 words, no more than 2000(please include this)

4) This will be done by general pole. If you submit and entry, you must vote in the poll and you may not vote for yourself.

5) Keep it clean. It doesn't need to be overly graphic(and I mean that in both terms of violence and sexual content). The sight is open to people of all ages and as such, keep it age appropriate.

6) Format:

1) [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: [Link to writing] - # of words

7) Have fun!

Theme!


If I were a(n) . . . Animal! Yay! What species would you be? What is your opinion on the food chain? If domesticated, what type? What would you do and why? Where would you go?

Note: Any type of writing is accepted as long as its within the word limit range.

<img:stuff/moorndivider2.jpg>


Deadlines and other important info!

Ok, I finally have it figured out. Entries will be accepted for a month and a half for each contest. The week after the dealine voting on the entries will take place. The week after that voting for a new theme will take place while the winning entry is show cased.

And now for the deadline!

Entries accepted until: Mid-Nov.

Entries voted on: The day after Mid Nov. to the last week of Nov.

New theme voted on: Last week of Nov.

(Can't ya tell I don't have a calendar with me?)

2006-01-11 [Burning Inside]: just a note you may want to add a space for the contestants...i would do this for you kus its easy....but im lazy.....but yea I will join

2006-01-11 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: there was a few things I wanted to add anyway

2006-01-11 [Akayume]: hello! *bounds in*

2006-01-11 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Hola! Bienvenida!

2006-01-11 [Mister Saint]: I'm gonna be in on this.

2006-01-11 [Kuzco]: What he said. ;)

2006-01-16 [Akayume]: *laughs* I have to write my entery

2006-01-19 [Kuzco]: Holy crap! I can't believe what I just did here. I'll have to erase and make a new entry. Sorry...herm... de...demon.

2006-01-19 [Burning Inside]: ....what why? oh well I will join this write now and maybe write something for it tonight, so it should be up tomorrow, or the day after probably

2006-01-19 [Kuzco]: Its supposed to be an article of clothing and I went about off about an animal :S . Jeez.

2006-01-19 [Burning Inside]: lol nice

2006-01-22 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Yeah, I was gonna say something, but I figured you figure itout sooner or later

2006-01-22 [Kuzco]: It seems, for my embarassment, taht it was...later. that reminds me, gotta do another one! :P

2006-01-22 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: I'll put animals up as a possiblity for the next theme, ok?

2006-01-22 [Kuzco]: Don't do it because of me. It's the most obvious thing to do and I did it out of instinct. No worries. :)

2006-01-22 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: No, no one has suggested any new themes(HINT, HINT, WINK, WINK!!!!!), so everyone will just have to deal with what I choose to put up I guess.

2006-01-22 [Mister Saint]: We have faith in your theme choosing abilities. ^_^

2006-01-22 [Kuzco]: abso-nastyword-lutly

2006-01-22 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Thanks for the vote of confidence

2006-01-24 [Burning Inside]: hey sorry guys im leaving this one, I just can't get any ideas, I may be back when the next idea arrives but till then im out

2006-02-09 [*Amy*]: i just added my story to it. i hope everyone likes it:)

2006-02-10 [Kaimee]: *laughs* Have you ever checked out the Elle McPhereson bras?

2006-02-11 [*Amy*]: nope i haven't actually. is it any good? :P

2006-02-11 [Mister Saint]: I have! >.>

2006-02-11 [*Amy*]: really?!

2006-02-11 [Mister Saint]: Of course not. Apart from being a guy, I can't afford to think about buying something with someone's name in front of it. ^^

2006-02-11 [Kaimee]: I own almost the entire Elle McPherson intimites range.. keeping up to date in it gets expensive XD But it's worth it, they are sooo lovely! http://www.ellemacphersonintimates.com to see them :D

2006-02-14 [Mister Saint]: Attention all entrants: This contest is now closed to submissions. I messaged the host, but she hasn't been around in about two weeks, so I'm temporarily hosting for her. The voting was scheduled to start today, but I would like to give her the benefit of the doubt and allow a few more days for her to return. Since the contest is being judged by poll, it shouldn't matter that I'm an entrant too. If this is unsuitable for any of you, please let me know.

2006-02-14 [*Amy*]: I have no problems with it:)

2006-02-15 [Mister Saint]: Okey, childrens, the poll is up. We're going by the honor system here, so please keep in mind that you can't vote for yourself. ^^ Good luck everyone!

2006-02-15 [Mister Saint]: I know I don't have to say this, but please make sure you've read all the entries if you're going to vote, and try to be objective about it. ^^ It's a personal peeve of mine when art/writing/poetry contests turn into popularity contests. ^^

2006-02-15 [SleepingDragon]: Erm, I thought the voting was to be by entrants only...not anyone with an opinion. No offense to anyone, and maybe I'm mistaken. I just thought I remembered seeing that on the wiki before.

2006-02-16 [Mister Saint]: No. Nothing on the wiki has been altered, only the poll and message added at the top. It just says that entrants must vote, not that non-entrants must not, if that makes sense.

2006-02-16 [*Amy*]: Hey everyone, since the host hasn't put badges up as of today, I took the liberty of making them. Yes i got permission first:) Hope you like them:D

2006-02-16 [Mister Saint]: I hope no one minds, but I really, really don't feel like extending this until the end of the week. I'm thinking... hold the poll till Thursday night, my time. Everyone who's going to vote probably will have by then. IF anyone disagrees, then we'll let it go on. Otherwise, that's when it'll end. ^^

2006-02-16 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Oh, thank you both of you. I've been running around like a chicken with my head cut off lately due to an array of problems that sprang up successively, the biggest being my Grandmother's failing health, I'm back though now and [Mister Saint] was right. I had intended for anyone to vote, but have a madatory participant vote if that makes sense . . .

2006-02-16 [SleepingDragon]: Glad to see you back. Sorry to hear about your Grandmother. :(

2006-02-16 [*Amy*]: welcome back. So sorry about your grandmother. And your welcome. it was no problem:)

2006-02-16 [Mister Saint]: Okee! So now ish your contest again, and I can resume being lazy! Whee!

2006-02-16 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Ooo, go me! I wrote a lullaby today in under five minutes . . . granted its not very long, but . . . it works

2006-02-16 [*Amy*]: Did we decide when the poll is going to be closed now? Just wondering:)

2006-02-16 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Voting goes through the 21st

2006-02-16 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Says that right above the slot for the entries and such . .

2006-02-16 [*Amy*]: Okay, I was just wondering since we started the voting late. :) thanks

2006-02-16 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: No problem. Sorry I had to skimp on the voting, but I think through Tuesday will be long enough . . .

2006-02-16 [*Amy*]: yeah i think so too. Tough to anybody who doesn't get here to vote on time:P

2006-02-16 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Exactly. *sigh* Still want three more new topic choices to vote on. Any one got any ideas?

2006-02-17 [Kaimee]: plant, wall (walls have ears :P), cat, telephone directory *is looking around the room for inspiration* XD painting. Personally, I'd totally love to try the wall thing.

2006-02-17 [Kaimee]: Ok, I'm going to have to ask... what's with the 'hir' thing? Does it stand for his/her?

2006-02-17 [Fuzzysabeast]: How about if I were a wild animal. It would definitely stir up a mess of good stories I think.

2006-02-17 [Mister Saint]: In my experience, yes, hir means his/her.

2006-02-17 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: A wall is a good topic! Thanks [Kaimee]! And I already have the animal topic, as well as the plant one . . .

2006-02-17 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Yeah, I promised [Kuzco] that I'd put animal up as a catagory for voting, since his entry for that theme is already written. I have some semi-interesting(or at least I hope so) other topics to vote on

2006-02-17 [*Amy*]: I can't wait to see what you've got! I think this was one of my favorite contests so you can count me in for next month!:D

2006-02-22 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Sorry if I left anyone's them possiblity out, it will be included in the next vote!

2006-02-22 [Mister Saint]: Whee! *headbangs* Congratulations, [*Amy*], and SleepyD. ^_^

2006-02-22 [*Amy*]: Thankyou! and congrats are in order for you too, [Mister Saint]!

2006-02-22 [Mister Saint]: Whee!

2006-02-23 [SleepingDragon]: Congrats you two! *Is proud of daughters 1st win* Nice entries all!

2006-03-02 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Yay, new theme!

2006-03-02 [*Amy*]: I am gonna have to do this one!:D

2006-03-03 [Winkx]: I want to be a Le Chanton....Do you think that's a good animal to do?

2006-03-23 [*Amy*]: I'm sorry to say that I must temporarily withdraw from the competition:S I am overloaded with homework and I just can't make time for everything:(

2006-03-30 [Dangerous Salome]: I want to enter but I will be on holiday during the voting...

2006-04-16 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Well, this was a bust . . .

2006-04-16 [*Amy*]: well, maybe next month:S If i wouldn't have been so busy, i would have entered

2006-04-16 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: I'm not blaming anyone really. There's just the whole, "Well . . . what now?" matter to attend to

2006-04-25 [Metal Tsubasa]: Hmmm, too bad I just found this. It certainly would be fun

2006-04-26 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: The theme will be back out soon. I'm not sure when exactly, but soon. Ok, here's the deal, since I was swamped yesterday I didn't get the new theme poll up, however, to keep the time frame voting for a new theme will end on the 30th.

2006-04-26 [Kaimee]: ...I still want the wall theme >:P

2006-05-01 [Winkx]: Try again. :D Its a good contest. Just change the deadline.

2006-05-03 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Thanks, sorry about that!

2006-05-09 [Winkx]: Yay! Theme and a deadline....okay. Ready! Set! GO!

2006-05-18 [Lady of Lore]: Oooh! i like this topic ^_^ i will enter ASAP

2006-05-25 [Lady of Lore]: how many entries can we have?

2006-05-26 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: I'm not thinkin it matters much so long as, you know, there's not lik five of en and only three people participating. Seems a little unfair . . .

2006-05-26 [Lady of Lore]: true, that makes sense, ok I'll keep it within reason ^_^

2006-06-03 [RiddleRose]: ooh, i like this topic too! i shall attempt to enter.

2006-06-07 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]:

Please Note:

You guys have ten more days to get these in. Please do not make all the hard work I put into the badges pointless

2006-06-07 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: I will honestly come up with a last minute entry(that will be very poorly wirrten, I assure you) just to make sure someone gets the badges

2006-06-07 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Either that or this theme wil continue untill I have at least 4 entries . . . not sure which yet . . .

2006-06-07 [Lady of Lore]: Ahh! i have to get my entry in!!

2006-06-07 [RiddleRose]: it'll get there... i always write better last minute, so it'll be a few more days probably... XD

2006-06-07 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: That's fine. I just worked hard on the badges and I'd hate for yet another theme to be a dud . . .

2006-06-09 [Lady of Lore]: I promise to have an entry in! ^_^

2006-06-09 [Athilea]: I'll enter I just wanted to ask a question. I was wondering if fantasy based third person was alright. I'll use my pen name so it will fit the them, but I'm no good at first person. Just let me know.

2006-06-09 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: As long a it's true to the theme I don't see a problem.

2006-06-09 [Athilea]: Okay, thank you. That's all I needed to know.

2006-06-13 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: 4 days *poke, poke*

2006-06-14 [RiddleRose]: *is poked* ooowwwwwwwwwiiiieeee! don't worry! a plan is swirling about in my head... i don't want to rush it

2006-06-16 [RiddleRose]: half done at 1 34am est... -_-'

2006-06-17 [Calliope]: Is it closed now?

2006-06-17 [Child of God]: So how is the voting going to work? A pole?

2006-06-17 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Yeah, but since I'm havng computer problems the other entrants managed to get away with some extra time . . . Unless someone wans to take over for me.

2006-06-20 [Calliope]: It didn't look like anyone else was going to enter so I went ahead and made the poll. If you follow the day schedule set out before I guess voting ends on June 26th so lets get at it ;)

2006-06-22 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Alrighty, thanks. I didn't expect my computer to just refuse to cooperate like that. Sorry guys :(

2006-09-15 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Alrighty. I think it's just about time we take down the voting for the elementals and put up a poll for the new theme. My computer is still being wonky, so I'm kinda in thwe middle of English doing this but yeah . . . anyway. To the new theme.

2006-09-15 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Well, seems we have tie for third place. Anyone mind it staying a tie? I'm being lazy I know, but I'm also a little pressed for time, so if no one minds. Third place will stayed tied.

2006-09-15 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Ack! No time. Well, I'll get the new theme poll up over the weekend. I promise. Really.

2006-09-20 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Ok, you know what . . .if everyone is just jim-dandy with it I think I'm gonna try my failed theme all over again. It'll save on time.

2007-01-04 [Nell]: I actually have a story for this, but I finished it in December. If you like I could enter it?

2007-01-04 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: If you like go ahead. I'm a bit helter skelter at the moment, with the computer problems and I'm soon to be moving out and all. I think I might just put indefinite for the deadline for right now.

2007-02-07 [Lady of Lore]: Whoa! I won? Thank you ^__6 I really enjoyed the other entries.

2008-03-23 [bloody kisses]: Hey, just a question, when will you update this to recent? I'd like to hit a try at this one hehe ^.^
