While I'm sure you'll be chatting in your own forums, feel free to praise or chide Taed and me about our topics.

Is there a specific Terror in Paris you're referencing? Or is that a sort of generic term?

Just to let people know, we had a quick discussion at the end of Inklings about how Taed and I were going to judge. The plan is:
- We'll both judge all the matches.
- We'll judge individually.
- If we disagree on the winner, that match is a tie and each team gets half a point.
- We'll probably change that to: a winner gets 2 points, a draw gets 1 point because Pete has problems with halves.

Deadline day!
Also, hopefully you've got your teams sorted for the second round of matches.

So, guys. A quick warning.
I think in past competitions I've probably been one of the more lenient judges, especially when compared to m'colleagues. But minus a challenge, I haven't judged anything for about a year and in that time I've been reading and writing a lot.
And, it turns out, I'm now holding you all to a far higher standard. So if it seems like my reviews of your stories seem harsher, it's not because you've gotten worse. I'm just expecting more.

We used to have meetings every Thursday, but we gave our caterers 1/5 on Yelp and thumbs-down'd the hotel we held the conferences in on Expedia, so now we just quietly gather to downvote things on reddit. |
