ANNOUNCEMENT
hey guys! I hope you've been having fun with the challenge! I say as I have completed so little of it
anyway, after discussing things with wes, I'm introducing some new lil things to help you complete your challenges!
mini challenges
these mini challenges will be posted twice per month [one on the 1st and one on the 15th, likely!] and will be split up into 3 categories:
-art
-writing
-development
the exciting thing about this? you can win prizes from completing them!
wes and I, and likely another judge, will judge which entry is the best one! we'll be looking for effort and creativity; no worries if youre still not confident in your skills!
an important note, though, there will only be ONE OVERALL WINNER PER MINI CHALLENGE. so, instead of having one winner for writing, development, and art, we will look over all of the entries from across the three categories and pick only one winner! [so one winner per mini challenge posted, as opposed to three winners!]
wes and I still have to discuss things [such as setting up forms] of course! it may be that people can only win once [most likely tbh]
the prize would be a pet randomly selected by Wesley out of this group. I'm assuming wes will post pictures of the pets on the front page, or something. idk. I don't have control over the first few posts
you'll likely be able to use these towards your challenge as well, as long as requirements are met!
please note that you are not allowed to reuse writing/art/etc for these mini challenges! it must be new, otherwise that's not particularly fair :p [I mean I have to discuss this w/ wes, but it definitely seems like it'd be unfair oops]
I'm not sure about whether ordering art/writing is okay, i'll discuss that with wes
you can also complete them without necessarily entering the competition! just let us know if you post a form for it that you don't want yours to be judged!
and another thing...
prompts
you will NOT get prizes for completing prompts! prompts are merely just ideas that you can use for the character challenge!
basically, at random intervals I will post small prompts for you guys to complete to get muse flowing!
these are different to mini challenges as these will not be judged and are just p much to help you and your challenge! there will be no form for prompts or anything [basically, theyre just art/writing/etc. ideas that you can use to help develop your ocs!]
these do not have a set time as to when i'll be posting them - they may be posted 10 times in a month or none at all! I have to get ideas, after all :p
if you do have any ideas for prompts and mini challenges, please do pm me! I need to stock up on ideas haha
these are both very new ideas and are still prone to discussion between wes and I! c:
if you have any questions about this, feel free to PM either wes or myself!
