Hi! I know it's been a while since we've had a round here at firefly_lffws, but we definitely haven't forgotten you. I'd like to have a Round 3, but try out a different kind of competition. Are you familiar with a rumble challenge? These are typically done in icon contest communities, but I think it could work for this type of fic challenge community, as well.

What's a rumble*? We'll have sign-ups for the round. The round will consist of 10 challenges. In each challenge, a prompt will be given and participants will submit a 100 word drabble. Members of the community will vote for their favorite drabbles and the scores keep adding up. There will be winners after each challenge and an "overall" winner for the entire round. There are no eliminations and since the comments are for the favorite drabbles, the comments are all positive. Comments will be made available to winning drabbles (and any who received comments) after each challenge (if they want).

So, what do you think?

Would you be interested in participating in a fic rumble round at firefly_lffws?

If we have a rumble round, would you like to also receive constructive criticism?

If we have a rumble round, how many participants should it be limited to? (Remember, you'll have to read all the entries and vote for why you chose your favorites.)

Thanks everyone! I'll use this information to figure out if we should go forth with it.

The idea for a rumble was taken from disney_rumble, an icontest community. It has been adapted for a Firefly icontest at firefly_rumble. If you're interested... ;)
