RE: A small note about posts auto-archiving (after 7 days)
I could run a blitz contest, I'm pretty sure making each round in a standard-length piecemaker contest a separate thread would be excessive

Sorting comments by 'age' can help a bit for this type of scenario, and it would be possible to have each round take place in response to a host-made comment while the tournament rules are the post itself. Such as the host making a comment "[ROUND 1 ENTRIES]" and people reply to that.
There are other unexplored options as well, but
the primary limitation is that the original post cannot be edited after 7 daysfor things like having (ongoing)/(finished)/etc. in title to show status, or even results edited into the post at the end.This is one downside that will be hard to get around completely here, compared to a normal forum. Most of the common problems people will find here have some sneaky tool that exists to solve it (although it would be quite the overload to express them all upfront), but archiving into blockchain is not something that a simple tool will change, so it's important for everyone to know aboutthe 7 day edit/vote period.
