I'm an old school parser IF guy that started this thing called speedIF. The idea is that a bunch of people get together and come up with MadLib like parameters and you have a couple of days to make an IF including as many or all of those parameters.
I created a site for picking parameters, chatting, and uploading your stories (zipped twine stories or links work).
http://speedif.plover.net/speedif
They will run Sunday to Saturday and I'll be online at 6pm UTC to pick params with whoever shows up.
Join if you're interested. It's a great way to bust out short stories and hone your skills.
It's more of a fun thing than a "comp" as there are no prizes (other than leveling up in your artistic life).
