A short-story contest built around PATH, a fictional device that vibrates when its wearer makes the “right” life choice.

Why it surfaced

The premise is unusually well specified: PATH can be worn as a bracelet, clipped to a collar, or carried in a pocket, with Basic and Premium modes for rationed or unlimited alignment checks. The contest is seeking 25 stories of 1,000–3,000 words across genres including sci-fi, romance, crime, and dystopian satire, with a $10 entry fee and publication prizes.
