As you all may or may not have notice, there was a void this month on the board, where the CDG competiton should have been. I will apologise once again for it not being there, and as a result and to make up for it, the CDG have decided to run 2 competitions at once! Both may and June's competitions will be running Simultaneously. You can enter one or the other, or both competitons, and each entry will be considered in its own right. They can be linked if you wish or two completely seperate peices of creativity.
So, without further ado, The competitons are:
May
Title: 'First impressions'
Start date: 27th May
Finish date: 30th June 23:59 GMT
June
Title: 'Second chances'
Start date: 27th May
Finish date: 30th June 23:59GMT.
As you may have noticed, the competitons are running for 5 weeks, instead of the usual three; this i to give peopel the chance to entre both competitons if they so whish.
Please when entering bare in mine the rules
The following content has been hidden - Reason : rules!
Entries must be posted in this thread. If you wish to get feedback on your work, please also post it in a separate thread.
Participants can submit several pieces if they choose, but only 1 piece per media (so, only one photograph, only one painting etc. An example would be someone might decide to write a poem, take a photograph and make a video)
It must be your own work (well, kind of obvious I know, but still!)
If we suspect an entry is not the work of the entrant, we reserve the right to seek proof that the work was created by the entrant. If we are not satisfied that an entry is original work, we may disqualify an entrant from that month's competition, and disqualify the entry in question from the big competition. Entrants suspected of plagiarism will have two weeks from the date of the discovery of the alleged plagiarism to furnish proof. Our decision is final unless new evidence comes to light. In cases where a decision of plagiarism is overturned, we cannot revisit old monthly competition results, but the work can be forwarded to the bigger competitions.
Joint projects are allowed, as long as it's posted as such (so, if you and another member want to write a story together, go ahead! just make sure you tell us that's what you've done)
Entries are within RYL’s rules (again, obvious!) but we don't want to have someone put a lot of time and effort into something only to have it removed due to being rule breaking. See RYLs rules here)
We will not discriminate against poor grammar and spelling as long as we are able to read it without too many problems. We would recommend getting someone to proof read it for you.
You may not enter work on behalf of another member except under exceptional circumstances AND by prior arrangement with the CDG.<!-- / message -->

...and get creative!

CDG is the Creative Development Group - a team of people here to try and help develop the creative corner. This competition is just one of the many thigns we are planning on running.

Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
