Moderator: Ash

Welcome to the first of the boards themed hobby competitions. If you have not already read all the rules and stuff about the competitions then it is strongly recommended that you do so here:
www.thediceanddeck.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=competitions&action=display&thread=920
This first competitions theme was chosen to be easy. Horror has so many possibilities in all forms of the hobby. It is also quite topical considering the time of year that this first comp falls around.
Ash will be modding this comp though so all questions related to this theme should be pointed at him and posted as a reply to this thread.
EXAMPLES OF INTERPRETATION
Horror is a pretty straight forward subject but can be quite open in its interpretation. This time around we will not present examples of interpretation as the word itself should conjur up some good images.
In future competitions if the theme is a little more obscure it is requested that the moderator for that competition provides a few examples of ways someone may tackle that theme.
Dates:
Starts Saturday 3rd October till 11:59pm Sunday 8th November.
(starting one day early as its a public holiday for some and that gives us all a good start)
This is the first of what is hoped to be many competitions. As this theme is quite simple to interpret its hoped that this first comp will attract many entries. And its expected that the more 'out there' of these boards members enter in something a little more different.
