I am sorry Trax, but this is a clear insult to any form of creative writing. This contest is supposed to be about showing and comparing literary quality, not getting a pretty icon just because the system is flawed and you managed to create a story that was the quickest to read.
How dare you, If you considered yourself a writer than you would know that a piece is not based on quantity but quality, I'm sorry that I made my story relative and intrigueing.
How can you possibly say that you've won a writing contest if you are actively working to make sure that literary analysts will have the least amount of say concerning your project.
In your words no one here is qualified enough to judge or vote, but guess what? The same voting system has been used for all contests, and the minute things turn sour for you, you dig up excuses to put yourself back in the running.
If you believe that you should win, why will increasing the judges' voting power harm your chances? If you are the winner, then they will choose you to win. All that will change is you will now be winning due to writing capability instead of a flawed system.
If this system is as flawed as you say then all contests the hive has ever produced have been shams.
Do you really just want to screw us all just because we couldn't see this coming ahead of time
Are you kidding? Of course you won't know what will happen in future time, no one can. That is the most pathetic excuse yet. You're putting to gether a defense based on things "you didn't know" well you can't go through life analyzing future outcomes. If you're up for a promotion and you lose the promotion because "you didn't know" something, you think your boss is going to give a shit? No, you can't go and change the rules up in the middle because things turn out poorly.
At what cost to your writing community as well as to your reputation as a writer are you willing to secure your place in this competition?
Last time I checked this is a WC3 modding community, and I could care less of what you think of me as a person or writer, I'm not going to lie to myself and the community to give into a half ass consent that defy's the rules this very competition.
