    Default What should be the name of this writing tournament?

    I was thinking about changing the name from "Tale of the Week" to "Story of the Week".

    However I'm not 100 % sure. :hmmm:
    Tell me which one do you prefer or hit me with a new name if you have any idea.

    How about Weekly Caption Competition?

    It could be that potential contributers are put off by the current title, thinking it requires a lot of work.

    "Caption" is less threatening than "Tale" or "Story", so maybe people will be more likely to give it a try.

    I do like "caption competitions", and it flitted through my mind at the very beginning, however the name is already taken in the Coliseum.

    Caption Comp cont.

    Must it have the word "weekly" or something to do with once per week on it?

    Ah right. Cos though Tale of the Week is quite a good title, if you want a alternate title, what about "King of the Tales", a bit of an imitation of my "King of the Hill" tourney.

    edit: The title "Tale of the Week" has triumphed.
