User blog:AstrohunchoTheGreat/23-3-1 Challenge - Details

astrohuncho is now independently holding the 23-3-1 challenge

Purpose/Where this came from
One time in chat, I sort of joked around and talked about a 23-3-1 season. That's where the storm count came from. A couple days ago, I started making this post because I thought it'd be an interesting idea to make it some kind of challenge where people can make competing (and very sad) seasons. That's it. I wish that backstory was less boring, you know?

Rules

 * The challenge involves the creation of a hypothetical hurricane season with activity listed as 23-3-1, which means:
 * 20 storms which only attain tropical storm status, as in maximum sustained wind speeds between 39 and 73 miles per hour (34-63 knots; 63-118 km/h)
 * 2 storms which only attain either Category 1 or Category 2 status on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, as in maximum sustained winds between 74 and 110 miles per hour (64-95 knots; 119-177 km/h)
 * 1 storm which attains Category 3 status or above on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, as in maximum sustained winds of 111 mph or above (≥ 96 knots; ≥ 178 km/h)
 * This hypothetical season must be in the North Atlantic basin.
 * No hurricane categories above Category 5 are allowed if your entry is to be considered.
 * Your entry is required to contain the following for it to be considered:
 * A lead section with infobox
 * A timeline and/or storm summary
 * A systems section with a description for every storm with infobox
 * All entries will be judged on each of the following criteria using a 1-10 scale, which is then averaged:
 * Realism
 * Storm quality
 * Article quality
 * Intangibles
 * Your entry must be submitted using the proper method before the deadline below to be considered.

Important dates

 * Deadline to submit an entry into this challenge: December 1, 2019 - 00:00 UTC
 * Judging will be at least from December 3 to December 5
 * Results will be posted after judging period is over; highest score wins

The winner of the challenge gets exactly two virtual pats on the back.

How to submit an entry
Create your entry as if you were creating a normal season --- if you want to, place something signifying that this was made for this challenge somewhere in the title. Then make a comment on this post linking to that. It's that simple, gamers!

Good luck!
