Register
Before you fill out the registration form, make sure you are registered as a memebr of the Pulp Faction forums. The challenge is held there and part of the fun, even if you'll be mailing yours in, is posting each page up to the web as you complete them and viewing all the responses by other board members.
NOTE: All Pulp Faction signups have to be approved (to keep out spambots), so make sure to note in the registration field that asks why you're signing up that you're joining to participate in the challenge. If you're activation is taking too long (more than 24 hours), please send a brief e-mail to admin AT pulpfaction.net from the e-mail address you registered with and let them know that you're concerned your registration might not have gone through.
Also, make sure you read the rules!
Guidelines
There are two ways you can participate in the challenge.
1. You complete each page and host it (on your own server, ISP or image hosting like Imageshack or Photobucket or Flickr)
and link the images to the 24 Hour Challenge Forum 24. (Just make sure they stay around long enough for people to read them,
the judges to see them and, if necessary, for someone to archive a copy.)
We highly recommend you save images as JPG/JPEG (image quality around 70% is good and keeps it fairly small).
2. Alternately, you can attach your images directlyto your Pulp Faction forum posts. You must let us know by answering
the 'hosting' question below, or you will not have enough file space on the forum when the challenge starts.
We highly recommend you save images as JPG/JPEG (image quality around 70% is good and keeps it fairly small).
3. (NOTE: Removing this option is under consideration. We may no longer do mail-ins as it slows things downe.) Lastly if you don't have internet or scanner access, then you can send your entry by regular mail. Please contact an event organiser beforehand and let them know you're interested in mailing in.
Other Guidelines
If you are mailing your entries (see above):
- Send copies, not originals
- A4 maximum size pages (reduce size when you copy, if necessary)
- All pages need to include your name, page number and story title
- Your page copies will not be returned.
Important: If you are younger than 13, a parent or guardian must register for you.
If you are considered a 'minor' in your jurisdiction, please do not proceed without parental supervision or approval.
The organisers of this event assume no responsibility for minors who submit this form without adult supervision.
Do the right thing, y'all.
