One other thing about this announcement: All I am asking you guys is a 40-word minimum on each contestant. Is that too hard to ask? Leaving your readers in the dark as to who your readers for shock value are is one thing, but your characters really need some context.

To effectively convey how you envision your characters, they have to have some sort of backstory.
