I found one entry of the contest that was posted on another website by the author.View attachment 8563
It's finally time, we are back with another contest to hopefully be a springboard for new and old authors to find their ground on this never-ending sea of stories. Unlike before, this contest will last 4 months! Starting from today, it will last till the 11th of November (00:01 AM GMT+7). Similar to the previous contests, all authors will have to follow at least one of the given themes. Before we get into the gritty details, a big thank you to all the sponsors!
Our lord, @Tony
The tentaacles, @Ace_Arriande
The wizard/cat @MelasD
The Isekaid Haremist @Saileri
And a generous anonymous donator!

Here are the following themes! Remember you only have to use at least one and if you are the devil incarnate then you can attempt to combine them!
The list to the contest entries: https://www.scribblehub.com/contest/second-tempest-contest/?sort=4&order=2&status=1

My story is "set in space" during a big battle, but it's not about exploration specifically. Would it still be okay to enter under this genre theme?
This contest was long concluded. You can write it, but you can't enter the contest anymore. Alverost also seems to be inactive lately, otherwise he'd have unpinned the thread.
I guess I wasn't paying attention to the dates, lol.
how to add? it seems that I don't see the contest when I try to put it in tagsView attachment 8563
