All you need is a basic description of things. As for the word count, I do agree with you but if we had anything bigger, it would take forever to read them all. But if you are good enough, you can touch someone with such a small word count.

perhaps you can make something with such a small word count. but then again, why would an elephant want to play in a sandbox. by that symbolism, I mean as a decent writer, I could never go back to such a limited avenue. I decline my entrance into this contest.

There are plenty of skilled writers who have already entered the contest and written some interesting things under 300 words. Not only that, but I think it's the sign of a strong writer to be able to compose something interesting and meaningful within constraints like this. It tests your abilities, and forces you to be really creative to fit something into those parameters. I think that you should try your own hand at this contest. If you don't enter, you can't win, and you're not testing your limits to see what you're really capable of. (Just as a comparison, think of chefs competing in Iron Chef or Chopped. They have to be extremely good to come up with something inside the existing rules of the competition.)

A fair and just argument, however, as I mentioned somewhere else, I just don't feel heavily enough about the content determined as the setting to really visually a story in my head. I suppose that's my fault, but nonetheless. if someone can create something masterful with this, then more power to them.

Thats fine. I know its hard but plenty of people are doing it. Feel free to put send yoru longer works to the Black Garden though. They have long pieces of work going on there.
