Typically, for a public space short story contest, you need to create an original story within a given word limit. The theme has to be centered around public spaces. Also, there could be rules about the format of submission and who can enter, like age restrictions or geographical limitations.
One important rule could be about consent. All participants should be willing and have given clear consent. Also, a time limit for each kiss could be set, say 30 seconds per round. And there should be a proper way to judge, like based on technique or passion but in a family - friendly way.
Since I'm not familiar with the 2019 contest about love story specifically, but common rules in love story contests could include that the story has to be original. Plagiarism is likely not allowed. Also, it may need to have a clear plot related to love, with characters that are well - developed enough to make the love story believable.
One really bad intro could be 'There was a thing. It happened. That's all.' It's super simple and unengaging, not giving any details or creating any intrigue.
The requirements can vary. Usually, you need to submit an original YA novel manuscript within a specified word count. Rules might include no plagiarism, adhering to a certain theme, and meeting the submission deadline.
Well, perhaps the rules in the MCU girls' burp contest story would include that each girl gets only one attempt. This way it's fair for everyone. Also, they might have a rule that the burp has to last at least two seconds. So if Shuri just makes a quick little 'pff' sound, it won't count. And they could also have a rule that they can't cover their mouths while burping, as that would be considered cheating. Valkyrie would surely abide by these rules as she is a warrior of honor.
The rules usually include using Christmas-themed elements and keeping the decoration within a certain size limit. The judging criteria might involve creativity, adherence to the theme, and overall visual appeal.
I'm not sure specifically as I don't know which 'the contest short story' you are referring to. It could be about a competition, perhaps a writing contest where the story itself is either the entry or about the experiences within the contest.
