Ten votes to qualify? I think that under the present circumstances, that would not be a good idea.
My post was not meant to chide anyone, quite the contrary.
However, it is borne of the fear that if the new CEO thinks that there is little interest in the site from the existing members...
It is possible that this competition, with a good level of prize money, is being used as a gauge to assess the site's future viability.
My entry, like all my work, is posted on twitter, and has drawn a reasonable level of interest.
Bearing in mind that my 'Nurses' saga is drawing thousands of views, just imagine if all those people saw a thriving site as opposed to one that is barely ticking over.
