How is it decided whether a piece gets gold/silver/bronze? Is it based on the number of likes on the work, or...?

You know that studded leather armour in films? Nobody wore that. I mean, how would metal studs improve leather armour?

I realize that, if my piece does place, I'll get a notification because my name was tagged. But I can't help but checking anyway, just in case...

It's great to see who did win, too. ^_^

Unfortunately, the Olympics ended already, you arrived a bit too late to join this year! They will happen again sooner or later, though, and if you browse other forums you'll find quite a few other awesome contests which are still ongoing, and you can make your own as well ;)

Also, by all means, feel free to use these events' ideas as writing prompts for stories/novels/poems/scripts/whatever c:
