So what is these vic...contestants up against then in these challenges? I am a bit confused. Is it factual writing or alternative writing? 
I am too much of a coward to get 1/10 so.

As I say, I am too much of a coward to compete in something this major but I hope other big time writers will compete as that will be a contest.
