Post by Ruyu_san » 14-12-2008 22:22

[u][i][b][size=18]Drabble Challenger Guidelines/Rules[/size]. [/b][/i][/u](as of 12/06/2008)
[size=9]*after reading the rules, please view the next post to see how to join[/size]


[b]WHEN ISSUING CHALLENGES INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: [/b]

[u][i][b]Challenger[/b][/i][/u]: Effu-kun ~ Whom the challenge is issued by.
[u][i][b]For Username[/b][/i][/u]: Ruyu_san ~ Can be any individual from the participation list (see next post for list of participants)
[u][i][b]Prompts[/b][/i][/u]: Hair clips, cookies, camera phone, some sort of sleep over ~ List your prompts here
[u][i][b]Word Count[/b][/i][/u]: 200 ~ no less than 100 and no more than 1000 (give or take a few), within reason.)
[u][i][b]Rating[/b][/i][/u]: PG-13

*If you think you need to include any more information - then by all means, include it in your challenge. Word Counts and Ratings can be specified, but also left up to the person writing the drabble - whatever works for you. If someone has an established character that they’ve written, either from a fic they are currently writing or from a RP, you can request that they be included in the drabble. The challenger also has the right to request that the next drabble be a CONTINUATION of their drabble. If someone has a problem with this they can take it up with the challenge issuer or Ruyu_san.

____________________________________________________________
[b]DRABBLE WRITERS:[/b]

When answering a challenge, you need to include the original challenge info with your drabble at the top of the post (see example).

Try to include as many prompts as you can that were issued to you and PLEASE stick to the required word count (if no word count was specified then DO NOT outrageously exceed 1000+). Also, include your ACTUAL word count so we can see how close you got. ^^

Titles are optional.

[b][u]Important[/u][/b]: When you post your drabble, be prepared with your new challenge info (it will be at the end of your post).

*reminder - If you would like to become available to be chosen for a challenge please see the next post for how to sign up.

____________________________________________________________
[b]COLORS:[/b]

The original challenge info will be posted in [color=red]RED[/color] and should be located at the top of your post.
[color=orange]Drabbles[/color] [color=darkred]can[/color] [color=violet]be[/color] [color=cyan]in[/color] [color=olive]any[/color] [color=brown]color[/color] EXCEPT the default forum color or[color=red] RED [/color](no yellow, please). The only colors in your post should be [color=red]RED[/color], your overall [color=violet]drabble color [/color]and the default white which you can use to write anything else in your post (comments on the challenge you received).

Your new challenge info should also be colored [color=red]RED[/color] and should be found at the end of your post…all set for the next person to drabble about.

[b]COMMENTING: [/b]

You are all welcome to post as you wish in-between drabbles. This includes members who have not signed up to drabble. Please post only in the default forum color – NO COLORS in commenting posts. Colors should only be in the drabble posts. PERIOD. This way we know which posts are drabbles are which are not. If you do have colors in these posts – I will edit them.
