    This is where questions, commentary and canvassing for votes will go on. You can also invite friends to vote. Cheers!

    I seriously detest all this voting process, it only produces undeserving winners; the best flash would usually never win. I wonder why NS editors cant just look through the entries and select the best. Leaving this to a voting process would kill good writing and encourage ballot stuffing especially for those who have massive online presence.

    I like the writing prompt thingy, for someone like me whose schedule has become clogged by work, this could actually help me. But,i’ll pass for now, there’s no point…

    @banky, thanks for the feedback. Writing is not always about winning contests. The major idea behind the challenge is to inspire, and motivate. Adding the prize and voting is just to increase the fun.

    That said, the person who thinks they have the best flash should be happy to promote it, and it doesn’t have to be online, tell your friends off line to log in and see what you can do. Others who agree with you will also help spread the word. :)

    @admin, how long are participants really allowed to post their entries? The guidelines said the prompt will be posted on Friday and participants have till Monday to write and vote. But I got the NS mail today with this week’s writing prompt. And it’s Wednesday. So, have the rules become flexible? Is there still a deadline? Or did I just receive my mail 5 days late?
    Thanks.

    @queennobo, you must have got your email late. The prompt either goes out on Monday or Friday, and everyone has one week to write and vote. Cheers.

    @admin The picture prompt isn’t really clear. Is it a picture depicting a wedding dance or a story?
