THE DANDIN MATRIX MONTHLY FANFIC CONTEST

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!?!
Well, this is a little monthly thing that I decided to do...why...well, lets just say that most people will do fanfics and (while they're good fics that I have no gripe with) they're usually the same or VERY similiar to other fics already out there. This is a way for people to get more creative about what they write...as a plus, I'll be giving out awards and, no matter what fic you post or even if you win or not, I'll put you fic on my site after the contest is over...NO MATTER WHAT! Seems easy enough, right??? Well, it's supposed to be. Now, on with the rules.

RULES
  1. While this is a very open and free contest... you HAVE to follow the small amount of rules that I put up for each fic. (ex. Has to involve Zechs OR Must include a male character getting a swirly). If you don't, I'll still post your fic on my site but it is no longer in the running for the awards.
  2. After you've followed all of the rules and have the fic underway, you can do ANYTHING else...I mean ANYTHING! If I say you have to have a male character getting a swirly, it can be ANY character and it could be ANYTHING that led up to that swirly. If you want...you can go the distance and turn it into a lemon or something.
  3. I am not discriminatory against yaio or yuri so you can do that stuff if you want.
  4. The fic has to be up by the deadline that I post. If it isn't...it's a day late or something...sorry but you're out of the running.
  5. I'll go over each of the fics sent to me and then (depending on how many fics were sent to me) I'll pick a first, second, and third place winner. (If only 5 fics are sent in, I'll only pic one or two winners) Those people will get $5000!!!!! Wait...no Im just kidding. These people will get little awards that I'll make for the fic. Each contest will have a differnt award so keep them coming if you like the topic.
  6. The judges ruling (mine) is final so no bitching if you lose. On the other hand, if you're mad that you lost, please don't stop writing or sending stuff to me. Prove my wrong with the next contest. Who knows...you can kick ass and make me feel bad.
  7. Hopefully I can get new topics up montly but, depending on my schedule and how much is submitted, some contests may go longer than others.
  8. Once again, this is depending on my schedule but I'll try to get the awards to the winners within a week of the contest's end. Oh, that reminds me...you MUST include your e-mail with your fic so, if you win, I can send you your award.

DID YOU READ THE RULES! IF NOT, GO DO IT! YOU HAVE TO KNOW THEM IN ORDER TO ENTER THE CONTEST...IF YOU DID...GOOD FOR YOU. YOU CAN PROCEED.
On to the contest...
