There would only be 4 ROUNDS (including the Finals). I’ll be very strict when it comes to deadlines and submissions. I won’t extend. So as early as now, I’ll give the schedule for the whole duration of the contest.
For the elimination round, values will be given. Values that you should show in your short story. So here are the values:
Round 1: Trust
Round 2: Forgiveness
Round 3: Acceptance
Round 4 (or finals): Curiousity
I’m giving these ahead of time so you could prepare.
