2) The set of emoticons will be expanded to include the Quip set, NOT the standard one (I can't be sure of the exact number).

Then, the next question: if I am not satisfied with the provided set of emoticons, can I also use emoticons from an additional source?

I doubt it, and that's not the point... everything is on equal terms, there are almost any kind of emoticons for any taste and situation, all that remains is to show some imagination :)

And think about it yourself, if every second person doesn't like the suggested emoticons and wants to make their life easier by adding some more, it will turn into a mess.

P.S. a suggestion to everyone! I propose to count each female vote as two (firstly, because there are not many girls on our portal, and secondly, logically speaking, if Miss Hv was chosen by the guys, then our beautiful girls should be in the leading roles here).

Accordingly, the voting should still be open, which will not allow participants to suddenly vote for themselves, and so on.
The system for evaluating the last round should remain unchanged :)

Why Quip's emoticons??... I think there are much more diverse ones on the forum... especially for fantasy stories...) Fantasy, because that's what I immediately associate it with, and the forum also had stories on fantasy themes) and heroes of fantasy) and they might be more interesting... although that's up to the organizer)

P.S. Regarding the story topic... there seems to be only one post there... it's kind of in the general discussion... I don't remember exactly...

P.P.S. There's a choice regarding this contest:
1) The organizer provides the participant with a short story (possibly invented by the organizer himself) and the participant has to translate it into emoticons... or come up with a theme for the story
2) The participant comes up with a story himself and writes it in emoticons, of course with comments...

Okay, Zubr convinced me, Luchik, add me to the list!

Exz, you too!))) Add me to the list, please))))

P.S. I'll be using my favorite number!))))
By the way, don't be shy, everyone! Sign up, we were hesitant with Exz, but we still made an effort!

Therefore, it would be best to make the voting public, which would prevent participants from voting for themselves, and so on.

I am strongly against open voting! After all, the competition is not based on personal sympathy for the participants, which will subconsciously have a very strong influence on the evaluation. And one vote cast for oneself will not decide anything. Much more will depend on the "authority" of one or another contender.

open means that the participants' works will not be signed... it means that it will be visible who voted for which work....
I understand that the works will be under numbers (not who is listed under what), but randomly selected... a lottery, in general).

Well now, athletes, how's it going? Still fighting over the cow?

Well, take it!))))))
And remove 30 characters!

By the way, guys, don't be shy! Sign up, Ex and I were hesitant too, but we still made an effort!

Come on, Zubr) You made an effort on me)) I couldn't resist such terrible threats:D

Yeah, they’re so scary that I don’t even dare to say them:D :D

With so many male players on the forum, 5 participants is not a serious number. Are they all so insecure and shy? Or maybe many think it's beneath them to participate in such contests? I honestly don't understand. Let's all laugh together :)

Generally, it would be good to put an announcement on the main page so that everyone can see it, because not everyone checks this section, and even if they do, they might not notice it.

Knyaz_OMEGA, well, only the Creator can do that :)
And besides, do you even look there often?))))

I think it’s worth a try. So, sign me up as number 7. Something about the number 6 doesn’t appeal to me.
