If, for example, it takes two chapters for me to get to their only good one, it will hurt their overall placement in the contest.
That said, almost every Ragefest has at least one submission that is an abomination. However, I think this will get us more good submissions as well as bad ones.
Actually, while we're at it, I've been writing up the rules for Ragefest 4. Changes will be made based on what ideas I want to use (Such as multi-chapter hacks)
