I think the vignette contest is a good example of what I mean by not having too many rules. There is really only one rule that pertains to content, and it is the one which says that your story has to somehow fit the contest theme (it doesn't even specify how your story has to fit the theme, basically just relying on common sense to determine what fits). The rest of the rules are administrative stuff like where to post your entry. And that works really well for allowing a huge range of story ideas. If the rules were more restrictive on the sort of content that could be posted we probably wouldn't have as many entries, and a lot of great stories would have to be left on the cutting room floor.
