What is a Challenge?
A challenge is, simply, a request in sorts, with specific guidelines for a story or a drawing. It can be very specific or just a basic outline.
Ok...what's the point?
Two reasons really...first, you could win all sorts of goodies if you win the challenge (though more than one person is permitted to take a challenge, if specified by the challenger), though this isn't always true. Two, you can get those creative juices flowing and really push yourself and have fun in the process...everybody wins.
Goodies?
Rewards my good man, rewards! If a challenger wants to tac on a reward for the completion of a challenge, or for the best completed challenge (if multiple people accept the challenge). It can be as small as 100 gold, as large as 140k (or more) or just be a unique gift item from nurses hats to flaming swords. Anything. Remember challengers, you decide to give a big reward, then you tend to get more acceptances of your challenges. Though it's not required as I said.
Cool--so how can I challenge someone?
Well I'm glad you asked. You just post up a challenge in this thread (using the template below), then wait for people to accept it!
And if I want to take a challenge?
Also a good question, with an equally simple answer. You simply post on this thread that you would like to accept (insert challengers name here)'s challenge, and if there's an open spot, they'll place your name under their challenge, then you get to work. When your work is completed, please post it in its own individual thread outside of this one, and title it the challenge's name, or something including the challenge's name--you may want to post back here and inform the challenger that you've completed the challenge as well.
