This is a blog entry about the YuGiOh! Fanfiction Contest, an elimination-based pairing contest hosted in proxy by Ryou VeRua in the fanfiction.net forum that also happens to be
the top ranking YuGiOh! forum, post-count wise.

In a fanfiction contest there should be adherence to canon; either the characterisations should be close, or if there are no canon characters, the mood and/or setting of the story should be recognisably linked to the original. Creativity is always appreciated, of course, but ignoring all of canon means the fic's just barely fanfiction. Which can be fine and well, but would be particularly weird in a contest.
