Ancestor's Chosen?

I have a contest brewing, one that focuses on a certain subset of underused characters. Who's up to help judge a contest focusing on parents?

(No, Shakespearicles, no Mature stories. )

Update: I am thrilled by this enthusiastic response! I've made and PM'd my choices, and I hope everyone else is inspired enough by the prompt to enter.

Wait, you're asking me if I want to be a judge?

I mean, assuming you're willing to take that risk, I'd love to. But I'll understand if you'd rather have different judges. :p

I'm keeping my options open. It'd just be nice to have a slate to choose from when I start posting the announcements, making the group, etc.

I'm down to help

I’ve wanted to give judging a contest a go for a while, actually. And I’m not sure I could effectively come up with a story for this prompt anyway. Not a sturdy, worthwhile one, I think. So, if you’re willing to roll with the risk of bestowing judgment power on a spirit, all at your own peril and that of the other judges, I’m game.

[EileenSaysHi]

I’m definitely interested, but my only hangup is that I might have an idea for a contest entry… hmmm.

If you don’t have enough other volunteers, sign me up.

I can't be a judge. I'm not even qualified to be on a jury. As a defendant, maybe.

[Nitro Indigo]

Specifically the Mane 6's parents, or any parents in canon? Either way, I'd be up for it.

More details to follow, but the short answer is most parents. Spoiled Rich is in, Pinkie Pie is out.

[Nitro Indigo]

5684417 So it's characters who are parents within the majority of the show's timespan?

[Crack-Fic Casey]

I'd love to help!

I’ve never judged a contest before. What’s involved, besides reading a very large number of stories?

[Lord Dominator]

I’m perfectly willing to leverage my vast ability to read and never write :p

(Though, if you have enough volunteers already, I might want to write for the contest instead!)

[Bicyclette]

i am desperate to enter this contest

[MasterThief]

I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!

...er, judge.

[Botched Lobotomy]

Iiiiiinteresting
Sounds like a fun contest idea
Like, a really fun contest idea
Having never judged, I'd be curious to be on the other end of things. Or if not I'll just stick to my usual side

I am great at that! I could judge. Or I could write about Velvet or Argyle. Good either way.

[Jake The Army Guy]

Dude, I LOVE stories about the parents of the main characters. I’d be honored to help out.

[MarvelandPonder]

Looks like you have a lot of volunteers already! I'd be super interested, but understand if the need is already filled!

[IgnitedSage]

Ooh, I might participate as a contestant.

[Seriff Pilcrow]

Parents…like Twilight Velvet?
It depends on what time frame the contest falls in, but as long as it doesn’t conflict with my license exam review, count me in!

[Impossible Numbers]

I have a contest brewing, one that focuses on a certain subset of underused characters.

focusing on parents?

Where do I sign up, please?

Who's up to help judge

Which way's the exit, please?

[Polychromatic]

It's been a while since I've been a judge on something. I'm not sure right now if I'll have the proper time to, but feel free to keep my card on the table until I tell you otherwise, I wouldn't mind.

[Reviewfilly]

Depending on how much time I'll have in the near future, I'd love to help.
