Proposal : Glittering Prizes

[ Making the theme awards non-day-specific, and optional. And throwing in a new one. ]

To the glossary, add the bullet-point:-

* Reference to a "week" refer to the period of time between the start of a Monday and the end of the following Sunday.

Rename Rule 12 (Alliteration Sundays) to "Glittering Prizes", and reword it to:-

Various Prizes are up for grabs in BlogNomic - they are gained by achieving certain criteria in blog postings, and must be claimed within half an hour of the relevant post being made. A Player may not claim the same Prize more than once in a given week.

Alliteration Prize : X Points. Player must make a post where as many words as possible share a letter with the first word of that post. X is equal to the number of words that match, minus the number of words that don't, and has a maximum value of 30.

Surveillance Prize : 10 Points. Player must make a post in the form of a report by someone performing surveillance on the player.

Faux-Haiku Prize : 5 Points. Player must make a three-line post which consists of five syllables on the first line, seven on the second, and five on the third. A bonus 5 Points are awarded if the faux-Haiku contains reference to a season of the year.
