    maybe apse will add categories for most overworked, understaffed sections.

    that would be an interesting one to judge.

    2under's staff would be a SHOO IN for those categories!

    I think you're being serious, right? That's not a bad idea, our place puts an emphasis on all that kind of stuff. I think APSE should consider adding these as categories.

    Get with the times, Hey Pee Ess Eee!

    I was actually told by a judge one time that there was an outstanding gamer that they disqualified because of a typo.

    There are people who would applaud that. Not me, but some would.

    and that could be that one judge and possibly even other judges. but i know for fact that at least one APSE writing entry (game story) was not disqualified because of a typo.
