The invitational grid is open for editor picks

We hit 30 and then a few more on the challenge grid this week, unlocking the invitational grid and the editors’ picks. This week, in honor of our guest editor Chad Simpson, we are giving away to the jury prize winner a copy of Chad’s collection of short stories Tell Everyone I Said Hi as well as the two other books Chad mentioned in his guest post on Tuesday.

The invitational grid is open only for yeah write editors, so if you happen to see a little blue button that says “add your link,” that’s not for you. Please scroll down the page to the challenge grid. That is where you will vote by clicking the stars on each thumbnail entry.

Selected for the invitational grid? Congrats! It was an exciting and busy week at yeah write.

Challenge grid voting

The challenge grid crowd favorite and top row five winners will be determined by popular vote.

Everybody gets five votes

Click on the thumbnail to read the post before voting. Click on the yellow stars to vote for the post after reading.

Read the posts before voting

We are responsible voters here at yeah write. Read, evaluate, vote on merit. We’re still writing the yeah write way, and we want the votes to reflect it.

Voting is open until Thursday, 10:00 p.m. EDT

[unordered_list style=”green-dot”]

  • If it’s after 10:00 p.m. EDT [-4 GMT] on Thursday when you’re trying to vote, voting is closed. There will be no more voting icons on the thumbnail and voting will not work.
  • Once you’ve voted for your five favorite posts, you’re done voting. The stars will disappear.
  • Voting for your own post should be disabled. If it’s not, please don’t vote for your own post.
  • Once you’ve voted for the five best on the grid, you are then free to campaign for votes for your favorite entries.
  • If you’d like to see the current vote tallies after you’ve voted, refresh the page.
  • If you ask your people to vote for your entry, please let them know they have five votes, and they should vote for yours only if it’s one of those five best on the grid. Campaigning for your own targeted votes is highly discouraged.
  • Yeah write and the Inlinkz app allow only one round of five votes per IP address. When campaigning for votes for your favorites, please ask outside voters to read this section before voting. It will lessen their confusion and curb their clicking enthusiasm.
  • Don’t make Erica M’s kids have cold cereal for dinner because she’s ignoring them while tracking people driving from hot spot to hot spot to vote nine different times. So uncool, no matter how much her kids like cold cereal.

Winners’ post published Friday by noon EDT

Once the voting ends, the challenge grid will sort itself from highest number of votes to the fewest. Ties are broken by number of page views. Until the winners’ post is published, none of the sorting will be official, but you can still get a good idea of where everyone ended up until the votes are validated.

Yeah write #117 voting is open…
