new story contest rules
Civman2000 quit, and I'm hear to pick up and carry the torch. New rules though. There will be a nominations thread, and everyone will nominate which story they think is the best. The four stories with the most nominations will go on to the finals, where they'll be a one selection poll. The story with the most in that poll wins. The nominations thread will last for exactly one week, same with the finals poll. They'll always start on Saturday. I'll post the poll from when I return from dinner.

How many crimes, wars, murders, how many miseries and horrors might the human race had been spared by the one who, upon pulling up the stakes or filling in the ditch, had shouted to his fellow men: 'Beware of listening to this imposter; you are lost if you forget the fruits of the earth belong to all and that the earth belongs to no one." - Jean-Jacques Rousseau
