I would really like to know how we plan to dictate the difference between a Chapter and a sequel. Is the Matrix one, two or three movies? I would honestly claim that it's two movies. The Matrix is one movie capable of standing alone, then Revolutions and Reloaded are one big movie. For the purposes of the contest though what would that be considered?
It's very simple. If the story will stand alone on its own merits, then it's not a chapter. As long as you can understand what is going on without having to go back and read a previous entry, it's not a chapter. We are trying to get back to the beginning spirit of the contest which was to write as many "original" stories in as many categories as possible. Writing a gazillion chapters in one series really doesn't fit the spirit of the contest.
We're still hammering out the details with the immunities.
