Some of these ideas have been bounced around in the past. The bone of contention in each case I believe was that it is unfair to exclude anyone (except judges obviously) from any competition. Mods are just normal members who volunteer to help verify stories or look after the forum/chatrooms, why should they be excluded from anything?
With regards to providing detailed critiques of entries, that would be a monumental undertaking. Judges would have to submit notes on each story they read, then those would have to be collated and rewritten into something meaningful for each entry. None of this is needed in the current process so would be a lot of extra work.
With regard to competition rules, any that apply are posted on the competition page itself.
All sorted now. Thanks, everyone!
Local kebab shop took it off my hands.
If you were going to commit a murder, how would you dispose of the body to minimise the risk of being linked to it by forensic evidence?
I went blue once for a giggle. Felt all Sci-Fi.
They’ll have to remove some.
I think it would be okay. You're not writing the characters as Joker and Harley, but rather people dressed up as them for a party. Therefore, it's not fanfic.

Hi,
Lush is aware of the issue affecting the mobile site and is in the process of fixing it. Should all be back up and working again soon.
Apologies for any inconvenience.
