I suggest that you allow submission of posts written before this announcement. This incentivizes behavior that people expect might later be subject to prizes.
Thanks for the idea. I’m hesitant to do it for this round at least. One of the main reasons why we are doing this is to test the hypothesis that this will encourage more writing, and giving much of the prize to previous entries would work against that.
I’m curious though, do you have thoughts on what a proposal would look like? Like, we accept entries from the last month, or last year?
I would note that if you want feedback on recently written posts, I’d be happy to help there. Reaching out seems fine to me.

Suggestion: Paying the most undervalued post on the topic, whenever it was written, assuming the writer is still alive or cryopreserved. “undervalue” meaning amount the post is worth minus amount the writers received.
