I'm the sole judge. That means everything is based off my opinion and mine alone. I'm not bias to an individual but I do hold bias towards how I like to read things. Obviously, I can't control what I do and do not enjoy, but I can be fair and let you in on it.
Unlike FoF, there is no point value or anything. I'm going to simply read everything and given a final decision based off my opinion. In FoF, it was strongly geared towards people who roleplay the most. In this case, it won't be. Just because you rp every day doesn't mean you are gonna kick the most ass. For some, one strong roleplay every 2-3 days could be even better then two normal ones.
I prefer short to medium posts. Long novel posts bore me 90% of the time, but there is an off-chance you might be able to sway me with one that's good.
I love emotion, and going into a character's thoughts and feelings of the current situation. Normally I don't give a damn about the past of a character unless it has to do with the situation at hand.
Too much description is boring, but I like enough that gives me a picture of what is happening.
The following will be added to the above post:
Also to add, the following things will go through my mind when deciding eliminations:
-Do I want to find out more about this character?
-Do I feel this character can bring bigger things to him/herself or others?
-Do I want to continue to root for, or against this character?
Things like that. It's all about the character, not just how much your write or how great your writing is.
Now I know a lot of people simply can't change how they write. That's fine. Don't. But at least attempt to go over a few of these guidelines I've put in here and incorporate into your own style, rather then completely changing it. If you have a style that I just can't get into, and refuse to improvise, then that's a problem for both of us.
