📑 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐬

This is the most important because you can easily get disqualified for not following the thread contest rules

Always read and follow the contest rules carefully.

Each contest may have different criteria for judging and submission.

The writing metrics you should put into consideration;

I've hosted a lot of thread contests and these are the basic metrics and things I look out for

☯ Hook
☯ Audience
☯ Cliffhanger
☯ Comprehensiveness
☯ Graphics
☯ Flow
☯ Detailing

Let's dive deeper into these metrics;

6

→𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐊:

The Hook is what makes readers want to open a thread in the first place.

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 ;

→ Attention Grabbing
→ Clear and Concise
→ Relevant or Surprising
→ Have an emotional Appeal
→ Be Value-Oriented
→ Compelling

By combining these elements, you can craft a hook that effectively captures attention and encourages readers to continue exploring your thread

7

→𝐀𝐔𝐃𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄:

The amount of people your thread is able to reach is very important as, one of the main reasons why the project is hosting the thread contest is to gain visibility.

Can you captivate an audience with your thread?

Understanding and leveraging your audience can bring more engagement and visibility and can significantly impact the success of your Twitter thread

8

→𝐂𝐋𝐈𝐅𝐅𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑:

Nowadays, people don't read threads because of low attention span, cliffhangers are one of the methods of hooking viewers to read a thread till the end, which is also very important for the thread contest.

So decent application of cliff hangers gets you more points.

You can apply cliffhangers by....

10

→𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐇𝐄𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐒:

A thread needs to be understandable and relatable to the users

Also it has to be detailing and taking about everything the projects brings

A comprehensive thread should contain;

→ The utility of the project (Being practice about it can be better)
→ The tokenomics
→ The features
→ The roadmap
→ The team
→ Your experience while interacting with the protocol
→ Their Social links

↬𝐁𝐨𝐧𝐮𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐩: Talk about what the investors and users stand to gain from the project.

11

→𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐏𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐒:

Graphics make your thread more visually engaging, helping it stand out in a crowded feed and attract more attention.

Visual elements can help readers better understand and remember the content.

They can break up text and highlight key points.

Threads with compelling visuals often receive higher engagement, such as likes, retweets, and replies, as they are more likely to catch the eye and encourage interaction.

Incorporating graphics thoughtfully can significantly improve the impact and effectiveness of your thread in contests.

You should strive to create unique graphics from scratch so they stand out

𝐏𝐒: Don't go saving the projects graphics to incorporate into your thread.

12

→𝐅𝐋𝐎𝐖:

How easy it is for people to read a thread to the end is also very important.

You have to let the information flow and not use ambiguous words like i just did to disrupt the flow of the thread.

13

→𝐃𝐄𝐓𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐒:

Official links, new announcements, and some other important materials relating to the protocol are important and need to be detailed down.

Provide links to additional resources or further reading if applicable.

This shows thoroughness and allows interested readers to explore more on the topic.

Detailing helps ensure that your thread is informative, engaging, and stands out in contests by demonstrating depth and expertise.
