Writing Contest

Hey all! I've decided to do a fun, unique writing contest This contest will go on until November 7th, 2020. Submissions will be closed then, and winner(s) will be chosen/announced within a few days following the 7th!
​

How does it work?​

Choose a number between 1-10. I will give you the list of words from the number you've chosen (note: some lists are shorter than others, some are much longer than others). The task is to use ALL (or at least 90% of the words) that I've given you, to write an ECC-related story*. When you use one of the words, please bold or underline it, or even color the word, so it sticks out within the rest of the words.

The top story that we (myself and my judges) find to be the best written, most creative, and uses ALL -or 90%- of the words they were given, will receive 250k. I will even send 100k to as many as two runners-up; depending on how many people enter this writing contest

Please keep the story PG (no sexual content/inappropriate language).
Max pages: 8 (however if you got one of the really long lists, a few more is OK).
Please post your story to Google Documents. If you're unsure how to do that, Google is your friend
You may use a past-tense (or plural, or whatever) of a word too. For example: oldest (for old).​

​

To help me judge these stories, I will have 2-3 anonymous judges. What we'll be judging on:​

• How many of the words you used (of course, 100% of words used will score higher than 90%)
• How creative it is
• How well written it is (grammar-wise)
• How well it fits ECC (is it related to it? Believable to ECC?)

If you need any more information, or something is unclear about this, feel free to PM me any questions

Send me the # you've chosen, or post it in a comment here! I'll send you the corresponding list ASAP

Have fun writing, and good luck

*ECC-related: You can also pretend that EcoCityCraft is a real place, much like May/June's Writing Contests See those contests here and here.

Updated: Added a bit more definition to "ECC-related", at the bottom of the thread

 

Alright, @GoProDojoTM, @Imaginex, and @a_man21, you've all been sent your lists

 

@Imaginex asked me a good question, which has prompted another update
You may use a past-tense (or plural, or whatever) of a word too. For example: oldest (for old).

 

@Revanrose6 and @Zedoker, you've been sent your lists

 

@Unique_Beagle Sent you your list Also, to prevent redundancy (and because 3 people have chosen #7 already lol), I might make a limit to how many of each number can be chosen. Not sure yet tho

 

@Mission001 contacted me on discord and has requested list #2, so he's been given that!

 

Thanks @a_man21 I'll read it soon!
Also, heads up, you have until the 6th to turn in your stories, guys! I'll accept them until 11:59pm EST on the 6th.
