In the rule “Judging”, replace the text “The body of a Judging must be a numbered list” with the following:
The body of a Judging must be the last sentence from the contents of The Story (or last partial sentence if The Story does not end with a complete sentence) followed by a numbered list
If there is an Open Judging, edit the Open Judging post and add the last sentence from the contents of The Story (or last partial sentence if The Story does not end with a complete sentence) just before the numbered list.
It might help Storytellers in Scoring the Fragments if they can easily see the sentence that would come just before that Fragment if it were added to the end of The Story. Yes, they can just look at the sidebar, but having it conveniently in the Judging might be more helpful.
GloopyGhost:
After looking a bit more closely at the ruleset, I’m a little worried that the last sentence of The Story could be considered a Fragment in the Judging and therefore should be assigned a score, which may end up giving 1 additional point to whoever authored the last sentence of the story. Although Storytellers allocate Score “to Fragments according to the numbered list,” the Fragment Scoring action has no such restriction and Total Score for a Fragment is “one plus the Pending Score for that Fragment.”
