See, I don't think you should aim for a certain word count in an RP. I think knowing when to stop in an RP is SO important. The amount of large RPs that I struggle to get through because they haven't kept me hooked all the way to the end is ridiculous.

Sometimes I think, wow if that ended two paragraphs back it would have been so much better. I always TRY to leave my story on a cliffhanger, where the reader wants more, whether that's 1200 words in or 2000 words in, getting a grasp of knowing when to stop is really, really important. The number of words in the RP doesn't make it a good RP. So anyway, what I am getting at is that a shorter RP isn't necessarily rushed, in fact I would say sometimes it can be on the contrary. I would much rather focus on my 1200 words being of a higher standard than simply reaching a certain word count.

So again, I don't think forcing someone to hit 1500 words should be encouraged at all.

Also, whilst I know the championship wouldn't be aimed at people like us, I do think it would be easier to make it another highly respected belt.

Guppy is one of the best writers in the federation so I don't think the belt has got to be clung onto the newcomers.
