> [@Komi\_Valentine](#): > > For me as a baseliner I think this theme is very narrow. While I have to fit the capsuleer theme in my work, capsuleers don’t need to. It is very discriminatory. I’m a baseliner too! I’m a part-time writer and I’ll be one of the judges this year. Every year, Directrix Daphiti holds this contest, mostly via this here Summit forum, which as we know is _technically_ a capsuleer channel. Obviously some of us regular folks find our way here from time to time, by one mechanic or another, but overall, if you throw a data chip into the Summit crowd, you’re probably gonna hit a capsuleer. Ms. Daphiti is just addressing the general audience. It’s kinda like those perfume ads that are clearly targeted at women, but hey, some guys like to smell like citrus or cherry blossoms too! Doesn’t mean that they _can’t_! Anyway, the stuff that ends up getting written about oftentimes has little or nothing to do with capsuleerdom. Sometimes folks write about space, or their homes, or their lives and hobbies. Check out [last year’s entries](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/yc-121-new-eden-capsuleers-writing-contest/143472) to see what got submitted. For example, there’s a great article about kendu (a sport), one about the origins of Itamo Naval Rum, and the winning story was a goofball account of two capsuleers visiting a local school for Career Day. So don’t feel constricted–even if you feel like you have to stick to the theme letter by letter, there’s still lots of room for creativity!
