I just wanted to know the procedure for entering a fic.

I post my entries on Dokuga...and one time I posted it on livejournal only to be told I'm not supposed to yet...

So I don't know the official way of submitting my entry.

I think there is more to it than posting the story on Dokuga since my last entry wasn't considered T - T

Can someone please clarify this for me?

You're not supposed to put the entry on Dokuga.
You post it on the livejournal, and when the voting has been done and compiled, and winners announced, THEN you can put it on Dokuga.

Naomi,

I'm the moderator of dokuga_contest, and yes... I asked you to take down your Pure drabble last week. As I told you, you cannot enter a drabble that has been previously posted to another venue. The guidelines for the contests are clearly laid out here: community.livejournal.com/dokuga_contest/profile Take a look, and if you have futher questions, please feel free to PM me. I'll help you out!

PS - PLEASE NOTE: Under Contest Rules, it clearly states: "Please do not publicly post your contest entries (or a link directing people to your entry here) until after the polls close and the results are revealed. This includes posting your story to your Live Journal."

I don't know if anyone else has covered this yet or not, but the only thing you can post outside of LJ Dokuga_Contest is the Ongoing Challenges that they have, such as 'The Seasons Challenge", 'Child's Play Challenge', etc.

Like everyone said already...
For the Weekly Perfection you may only post your entry on Dokuga_Contest, however you may post your entry on other sites after the polls are closed on Thrusday afternoon or on Friday.

I'm not sure about Fics. I just post my art on dokuga...dont think it counts as a submission though...
