- Submitted a Small Building Entry

Then it’s just a matter of accumulating 25 Replies for each.
For Critics:
What’s the Best Way to Deliver Constructive Feedback?
Write conversational style Posts of around 2-3 Sentences that provide observations and feedback to Building Entrants.
There is no requirement to write an entire review or analysis in a Single Post!
Steve is about to write some quick, Creative Critic feedback on every Building Entry Topic!
In fact, it’s better if you don’t!
If you’re able to write multiple paragraphs of feedback, great! But spread your feedback over multiple Posts containing 2-3 Sentences.
Quote or Tag the Building Entrants so they’re alerted to your response and then allow them the opportunity to respond to your Critique before continuing your feedback.
The Creative Critic is meant to be a friendly discussion between Participants, not a comprehensive review from Critics to Builders!
Posts which are 2-3 Sentences in length are all you need.
For Builders:
How Do I Get More Replies on My Building Entries?
Make conversation with the other Participants who are Replying to your Building Entry Topics! Especially the Creative Critics!
If Steve was participating in the contest, this is what it would look like
If someone Replies to your Entry Topic; Quote or Tag them so they’re alerted to your response and then acknowledge what they said.
Ask them a question… ask them for more detailed feedback… OR at the very least, thank them for taking the time to reply to your submission…
A little friendly conversation goes a long, long way!
What Do Yer Think?
It’s anybody’s game at the moment – a determined newcomer could easily take the lead!
BUT HURRY! The First to 25 Challenges close July 6 and then the Prizes will be off the table!
So get Replying RIGHT NOW!
Can you get Steve over the dotted line before these Participants?
Are you gonna take a stab at the First to 25 Challenges? Just one of the challenges? Or ALL THREE?
