Below is the judging rubric I will be using to grade the entries. You will also be able to earn bonus points. My preference list is here. I am being a lot more indulgent than I normally would since there is potentially $800+ worth of merchandise being given away, so I do want to be slightly selfish and reward those who write well while also writing about my favorite EXO members/OTPs. And since two of my three EXO biases don't have as many stories written about them and my OTPs are the lesser-known ones, I would like to see these tags grow more and gain more love.
Chapter 25: Thank you so much for hosting! It's been a hell of a ride and a hell of an inspiration for me, personally as a writer, and I really appreciate all that you've pulled through with, even through everything that's happened lately. So thanks for all the hard work and dedication you've put into this contest, and all the positive vibes you've created as well.
Chapter 25: first of all, i'd just like to say thank you so much for hosting this contest. you've been having an extremely rough time and i'm so happy you're feeling well enough to announce winners. everyone has been taking jonghyun's passing really hard. it took me a solid three days to realize it was real and not some news source's sick, awful prank.
i'm really grateful i was able to place eighth despite the fact that everyone was confused af in my comments. i was super nervous that it was horrible or something. congrats to all of the winners!!
Chapter 25: Thank you so much for hosting this contest! This is my first time participating in one and you made it as enjoyable as possible for me with the list of prizes and updates. honestly speaking I have been on writer's block for months ever since Pretend was published but somehow reading this today really made me wanna just sit down in front of my laptop and quickly start on my half-completed stories. I guess it's the motivation to do better :) anyway, thank you again!
Chapter 25: I've been quietly supporting this contest, but I just wanted to drop by and say:
Congrats to the winners! (I see 2 fics I enjoyed reading myself 8D) And also *파이팅* ne?
It takes a lot of courage to write something so personal, and I sympathise. ><
Let's hope Pearl Aqua Dreams helps towards us Shawols getting though this emotional time.
Chapter 25: Ahhh, I’ve never actually participated in a contest before - I always said to myself ‘maybe I’ll do that!’ and then I never did. But I’m glad that wasn’t the case this time.
Thank you for doing this contest, and thank you so much for your message on Jonghyun. I’ve only just been able to start reading stuff again so I can only imagine how hard it was for you. But you did it! You read all the entries and you finished this contest, that’s as much of an achievement as people finishing their stories. And on the topic of finishing stories... I finished one! Granted it was a one-shot but I finished it! I am glad that I found this contest 24 hours before the deadline... because it gave me a push that I needed. But next time I’ll definitely look towards joining before the deadline hahaha
No matter what my ranking, I’m happy with myself for writing something so thank you for helping me to do that :)
And I’m happy with my ranking too!
So thank you, again, for doing this competition and well done to you for doing it!
Congratulations to all the winners c:
