Note also that this seems to be the last contest held by the old rules. From contest 15 on, the new set of rules will apply. you can learn more about those in the Story Contest Rules thread.

So the only thing that's different is that no unfinished stories are eligible for the contest?

	Full PM-box? Change here!

No, the difference is in the duration of the polls also. According to the old rules, the semifinals last for five days, and the finals for fourteen, while with the new rules, both polls expire after exactly seven days.

I was planning on starting this poll when we had 8 nominations in the nominations poll so that we could do a news item and so that I didn't have to bother the moderators too much... but oh well... I'll PM Mark about topping it

Well, vovansim, it's also because Mark takes a while to top a thread... and he ususally requests a news item... but just so you don't think I'm angry with you- I PMed him a few days ago... he just hasn't had the time to top this yet.
