<p>Wow thanks for posting this! I wonder what prompted the change? They also seem a little more relxed on the word count.</p>
<p>Wow.... im glad they NOW figured out how to ask reasonable questions with a reasonable response amount.... i thought it would take them 10 more years.</p>
<p>^^ Yeah, I agree. I had to cut out so much, especially with the two short ones from last year. This way, you still have the same amount of words, but can expand a thought.</p>

<p>Wow, you guys are lucky. Only 2 prompts and much more leeway on word count. I wish it was like this last year :(</p>
