This thread is going to be a success! Me and goumas13 thought of this thread. When he gets on I'll tell him to come here and tell you what he is going to do. What you are going to do is make a movie using these directions.

Title:
Plot:
Setting:
Characters:
Movie Cover: (picture from photobucket)

There are going to be two judges for each competition. Each competition will be two weeks long. And the winner will receive a merit by Carlie. You cannot win twice.

Now all I need is to have two judges.

First competition is going to start when I have two judges to judge the movies. It will end on July 24th. Get Thinking!!!!

No active mods either.

No, really?

Okay, I would recommend you to either figure out if you want to continue this, even though there is a shortage of users that wants to participate, since it is like this everywhere. You could always do some mock rounds to keep it going again and have some laughs before it gets started up for real again (with merit and such). You know, have fun? Practice?
This contest never had that many participants in the first place, as far as I know, and a some joking around and showing how it should be done might generate some more activity.

Okay, I would recommend you to either figure out if you want to continue this[...]

Or if you are going to wait to the summer, because in that case I am going to lock it. All the conversation going on is pretty much chat and complains, and it will become really messy if you keep up with this, and might get the contest locked for offtopic, flaming and spamming. Which could lead to Carlie denying you the merits or to restart the contest because you were unable to actually run it clear. I know at least Ernie has a link posted on his profile, so it shouldn't be hard to get it unlocked when you choose to start it over. Or redirect to this post if you wish to start from scratch again.
So please figure this out.

*rolls eyes* I havn't been on in almost 2 months! It didn't LOOK like any were active! Shoot me down Cinere gosh! :P But anyway. If we truly are gunna just open this again in the summer then I think it would be nice to just start all over cause trying to find ppl's entries in 143 pages (im just making a point about how many pages there are) is kinda silly dontcha think?

P.S. to Cenere: Yes this contest actually had a very good amount of participants. Keep up with the forum Mr. Active

Characters: Mark, Jenny, and their parents.
Setting: In the families house.
Genre: HORROR STORY. =P

Chapter 2
The Hole in the Ceiling.

Iâm Mark. I was all regular and stuff. (I feel like I have to say that because in every horror book, there is a main character thatâs not human and stuff.) Anyways, I was taking care of my little sister while my parents were on a business trip. But, the weirdest things happened while they were gone. I just notice hole in the ceiling in my little sisterâs bedroom. I was about to fix it when, âNO! Mark! NO! I like talk to hole.â Jenny said. (Markâs little sister.) ââ¦â¦ What?â Mark asked. âWhat do you mean, talk? â he continued. âThe mister talks to me at night.â
Right then, Jennyâs eyes started to grow greenish. âJenny! Your eyes!â Mark shouted. Then they were normal color. âOh. Sorry. I did not want to scare you.â Jenny whimpered. âCome onâ¦â¦ letâs go take a bathâ¦â¦â Mark said, suspiciously. Jenny waved to the hole. âB-bye!â Jenny said. The next day, things got even weirder.
Mark walked into Jennyâs room when he saw that she was levitating things. Her eyes were green again, and she had a really bad rash. A green rashâ¦.. Mark was about to faint. But, he didnât. She was levitating her toy bunny, sniffles. âMark! Mark! Look! Look at what I can do!â Jenny said. âYeah, I know youâre only 5 years old, but humans are NOT supposed to be able to do thatâ¦..â He said. Now, letâs take you to a Doctorâ He was interrupted. SLAM!!!! âNO!â Jenny said. She slammed the doors and Mark couldnât get out. But then, their parents came home.
Everything became normal. Jennyâs rash was gone, she stopped levitating things, and her eyes turned back to hazel. (For that was her normal colored eyes.) The next few days everything was fine. Until one night, on Jennyâs birthday, something went wrong. At night, at âbout 11:50, Jenny started to cry. The whole family ran to her room to see that the rash had gotten really bad. Her whole body had green scales and her eyes were even greener. The hole in the ceiling was gone too. âWhoa.â They all said. BZZZZZZZâ¦â¦â¦â¦.. The whole ceiling cracked open and 2 aliens came out. A male and a female. âWe are very sorry. We are aliens as you can see. And you baby is actually ours. Your baby was somehow with us. Why donât we trade?â Stunned, they did it.
After that weird night, things were back to normal for a few years. Until, the new Jenny started levitating thingsâ¦â¦.
The End.

Due to request this competition is being revived. If you wish to participate please read the rules on page 1 and abide by them. Chatting, flaming, or any other general off-topicness and/or inane conversation will result in it being re-locked permanently.

Also, as I have yet to confer with the other mods and admins it is not yet if this contest is going to result in a merit award at this time, but I'll try to make that happen and get back to you on that.

So, as the rules of this contest state, we need two judges. Since I will be running this contest, at least for the moment, I will need one more judge. I need someone committed and completely unbiased to help me judge this contest, as well as help me get it on its feet.

The rules say you cannot win twice. However, since we have many fewer active users since this thread was created, I'm going to change it to the standard contest rule of not being able to win twice in a row. That way the number of rounds isn't limited to the amount of active users.

So, before the next round begins, I need a volunteer to help judge. For those of you who do not wish to judge but still wish to participate, we also need a theme for the contest.
