How is it decided whether a piece gets gold/silver/bronze? Is it based on the number of likes on the work, or...?

I realize that, if my piece does place, I'll get a notification because my name was tagged. But I can't help but checking anyway, just in case...

It's great to see who did win, too. ^_^

Unfortunately, the Olympics ended already, you arrived a bit too late to join this year! They will happen again sooner or later, though, and if you browse other forums you'll find quite a few other awesome contests which are still ongoing, and you can make your own as well ;)

Also, by all means, feel free to use these events' ideas as writing prompts for stories/novels/poems/scripts/whatever c:

You must never give into despair. Allow yourself to slip down that road, and you surrender to your lowest instincts. In the darkest times, hope is something you give yourself. That is the meaning of inner strength.
