Okay, well now I have a question.
With the blockbuster annoucement a few minutes ago of a non - SW Fanfiction Forum coming, is this contest open to all fandom characters or Strictly Star Wars related?

Announcing...
Act I: The Challenge
How will these talents be judged one might ask? In designing this event, we needed to look for a shared bridge between Fanfiction and Roleplaying. To this end, we've settled on one-post fanfics / single RPG posts. This is a great way to judge the shared writing talent of our posters. The prompt will be given once we have our participants, but it will be Star Wars in topic. The prompt will center around one character, with the ability to incorporate other characters (RPF: In the form of NPCs). To prevent a tsunami of novellas, we will be enforcing a word-count limit. All entries must be above 500 words and must not exceed 2000 words.
The timeframe for this challenge will be as follows. From the posting of the prompt, there will be one week alloted for sign-ups, three weeks for writing the entry, and two weeks for the JC to vote on it.
Look at the bold

About a week from when the thread was posted, if I understood it correctly.

Actually, thats incorrect TLI...
Well, sorta
The writers will know that they're writers in a week...
But the non-writers won't know who they are until the contest is over...
This is to prevent favoritism and voting for writers "just b/c they're RPers"
I'd love to tell you alls who are all-star line up would be in a month, but alas I will have to wait!

I thought we would know who all of our writers were, but whenever the contest came around, we wouldn't know who wrote what.

I was thinking the same  . Well I guess this makes sense as the best way to keep the voting un-biased, but it shouldn't be too hard to tell which is which...just look for the fabulous integrated and relational posts and you'll find the RPF

I actually prefer it that way, because it will limit favoritism even more. I am a patient man, so I can wait until the end of the contest to see who our writers were.
So, I have a question as to the way that the writing will be structured. Will the RPers write it in an IC-TAG-OOC type of post? Or will everyone write it in a sort of fan fic style? Or is that up to the individual contestant?

But then we would know which is from a Fanfic'er and which is from an RP'er. I would say everyone would just write it like fanfic.

That sounds like a reasonable compromise!
