I agree with Katja on this, popularity isn't a good filter for what makes a good story, or even a good filter for what story the community cares most about. It is more likely to filter out popular people than popular stories, regardless of the quality of those stories. I'd much rather that the director of the tv series or the writer of the comic uses his expertise to select stories, based on what makes a good story. |

The 5000 character limit was put put there as an attempt to create "artistic constraints", with the goal to focus the storytelling so that it would be more of a treatment or synopsis, rather than a fully fleshed out story. That would make it easier for readers to trawl through all the stories once the voting process starts.
A number of people have expressed their concern that this is way to short. We'd love to hear opinions, pro and cons for this. Are there people that like keeping it short, so that it-¦s concise, or do most of you want more space to better illustrate your stories?
I think changing it now isn't the right way to go, as it's unfair to those who already wrote their entries in the style of a synopsis. |

I read through the rules again, and it seems I overlooked that the voting doesn't actually determine which stories will be used in any products. The voting only determines who gets the prizes. (which is still pretty crappy if you ask me) But any of the stories can be used for the comic or tv series. |

Selected stories for a comic or TV show deserve some kind of prize in my opinion.
I'd be happier if they credited the people who wrote the stories as co-writers. |
