THE LOST TREASURE/CURRENTLY INACTIVE FORUM

Is a forum that was meant to stir a writer's imagination and creativity by having the contestant write a poem or short story using a least ten words from the Imagination Alphabet.

*Smile* WHAT I LIKED

I liked the concept of it. Find at least ten words and build a story around it. It invites one to take their time in developing a creative and imaginative story.

*Star* RULES

The rules were clearly listed. Use a min. of ten words; write on any topic, keep it PG or under, keep it short, and one entry per person. There was a due date, but I couldn't tell if this was a monthly contest or perhaps a seasonal contest?

*Star* JUDGES

The judges were clearly listed.

*Star* AWARDS

The awards were also clearly listed. There was also a separate BITEM that archived previous awards winners. I like this feature as it displays the history of the contest.

*Star* DONATIONS

There is a place to list donations and donors, but it doesn't list any incentives, such as receive a merit badge, etc.

*Star* ENGAGING

The lost treasure had several contestants and looked active.

*Star*VARIETY

Variety would come in the way of the word choices in the Imagination Alphabet.

*Star*MECHANICS

I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to vary the colors to make it easier on the eyes.

*Star*PARTING THOUGHTS

This Lost Treasure was last active 21 years ago! I think the premise of the Forum /Contest is one that could carry over today, as tapping into creativity and the imagination never goes out of style for a writer.

*Star*POTENTIAL

This contest has A LOT potential if it was to be restarted. It might need a slight overhaul such a graphic to set the mood/tone of the contest, increasing font size, more use of color, emoji's, and fix any broken links.

This is a lost treasure that I wouldn't mind finding on a deserted island, dusting it off, and putting it out there again.
