S H A D O W
I know there has been a lot of questions and confusion on what needs a dev thread, should I do a dev thread, why is this judge asking me to do a thread? So I'm putting out there what guidelines the FJs have been following. I thought it was silly to just have the FJs know whats going on, you guys need to know as well. Hopefully this helps with the confusion and the WIPs that sit in factory and wait because the submitter now has to take the time to write a dev thread that could have been written before making the submission. Still a Judge reserves the right to ask for a dev thread for something ambitious that isn't on this list so please be aware of that. Any questions please inbox me and I'll answer there - I'd like to keep this thread clutter free.
Other than that, here is a rough standardization of what needs a dev thread.
