Now when you say this does this mean that when you name yourself you talk about yourself in first person or third person? Basically can the creators name be in it (seeing it is about them)?
Just wondering because if the competition will be anonymous (in the voting scheme of things) like the graphic competitions how should we go about writing it?

God damn you i dont know hitler.gif

I think i'll leave that up to the authors themselves. If i think the names being in there helps them get more votes for whatever reason, i'll blank out those names before posting them
