Tutor Mini-Contest: New Character Thread-a-Thon

TUTOR CONTEST: New Character Thread-a-Thon!

Hello lovely members of HGRPG! As part of the Tutor Revamp, we will be holding regular contests and mini-events for everyone to participate in to encourage threading, character development, plotting, friendships, inter-site relations and general improvement in writing ability. We really hope that you guys get involved and enjoy taking part - and the best part is, you can win site cash! Who doesn't love money???

This month's contest is the New Character Thread-a-Thon.

This contest is loosely based around the themes of the Hunger Games Post-a-Thon. It involves participating in and/or starting a thread with a character that you have never threaded or posted with before. This encourages members to actually use those handful of characters sitting in character directories getting dusty. All threads (and the posts within them) must be started between 12:00 AM 7TH JULY 2015 (the beginning of the thread-a-thon) until 11:59PM 20TH JULY 2015 SITE TIME (the end), and must use characters who have never previously been threaded with before. New character bios will not count towards your thread total. However, you are more than welcome to create new characters to create threads with. All posts must be a minimum of 500 words in length - we recommend using the Word Counter on the site sidebar and adding a wordcount number somewhere within your posts. Please note that the Tutors will be checking that these rules have been followed thoroughly, so please don't try and bend them. The member with the most posts over 500 words written by the end of the contest wins!

Prizes are as follows:

FIRST PLACE: $3000

SECOND PLACE: $2000

THIRD PLACE: $1000

(subject to change)
