stop being so pessimistic..
I for one like your fluff haggiroth, especially seen as how fast you can write whole stories.. (a talent I lack for sure..)

Any more posts saying how bad they are after this will be deleted. You are going off topic for one thing. Remember, you are not supposed to say 'oh my fluffs crap' and await someonre to say 'oh no it isn't'. It's just plain stupid.

Consider this a word of advice.

btw, if we did this, would the fluff be limited to Chaos? or at least including a major part about Chaos

Actually, I would think we could do something about a race we don't collect-making it a different piece to normal.

Why not just it warhammer fantasy, the only restriction should be that it must take place in the warhammer universe...

If we were going to have a "competition" with unbiased judges, we would need to have a topic that anyone could write about and not be indentified. For example, ifI submit a piece of Tzeentch fluff that has some of my characters in it, it would be quite obvious to the judges that I wrote it. But then again, forcing people to write about unfamiliar races/topics may lower the quality of the incoming fluff.
But it may draw people in- fluff competitions are not very widespread among the forums, so I have heard/witnessed.

God, no 40K. I know absolutely no fluff. At least for my ACAI fluff, I know some of the Chaos background. As for this, I don't.

Hosting fluff contests would be very time consuming and will require a lot of time and effort by dedicated members. While there has been a positive response overall, I am not sure if there would be enough people willing to judge or host this competition. We have to remember that unless there is a holiday/vacation, many people have to go to school and/or work.
So, we will need to see a show of "hands" of people willing to work on this, if any. Note that the fluff comptetions may be cancelled, as it is not written in stone. Those who volunteer would have to be willing to read over many, many stories and fairly judge them for content, creativity, and imagination.

I could be the organizer I mentioned. The one who gathers all the contributions and writes upp the proper rules for everyone to see, and such.

Although we could have a fluff competition open for people on other sites to, that would be intressting, I think we should restrain ourselves right now. If we have one, lets make it chaos only, and then if it works and is fun, we can use the experience to havew a larger one after that if we want to. Expecially since if we want a fair competition involving people from other sites, we need judges from those sites to, so that all judges are not mainly into chaos.

Well, for judges we need people we know will not be to busy, so that we don't have to wait to long for people to read the stories.
