        Wondering if judging shouldn't consist of three categories, each worth three points.

        Something like...
        1. Theme and story structure, e.g how well does the story match the assigned theme? Does it work?
        2. Dialogue
        3. Technical, i.e. formatting, etc.
        The entry with the highest aggregate score wins.

        Example:

        Story A
        Theme/story = 2
        Dialogue = 1
        Technical = 3
        Total = 6

        Story B
        Theme/Story = 3
        Dialogue = 2
        Technical = 2
        Total = 7

        Story B Wins. Of course this is only one set of votes. I'm assuming there'd be more than one voting, which means the story receiving the highest average aggregate vote would win.

        Ties???? Well, its a tie then.

        Such a scoring breakdown might help the writers and everyone else ID strengths and weaknesses of the entries; placing a bit more emphasis on "exercise," rather than competition.

          Hi bio, thanks.



          I'm going to stick with the usual voting thing for this contest mostly because I'm one godawful lazy contest/writing exercise host.



          Just a few more days folks.

            Understood. Notice how I didn't volunteer to help with the vote tally.

              Decided to give this a go. Do I just copy and paste what I've written in the PM or do I need to attack a PDF file?
