Little thing. I see that a few are giving the "nay" to draft submissions. Gotta disagree with that, as . . .
If a person is working alone on fic/art, then sure, no draft is needed, because if they lose interest and drop out, they won't impact anyone else.
BUT . . . if an author plans on having their piece claimed by an artist (as most Bangs do), then hell yeah, there should be a draft submission requirement, one placed upon both writer and artist to ensure that the artist doesn't get stuck with a writer who loses interest mid-stream, resulting in no story and nothing to illustrate, and the writer doesn't get stuck with a disappearing artist and no art for their fic. If that makes any sense. ;)
(Why, yes I HAVE suffered through non-communicative, disappearing!authors before, and I'm sure more than a few writers have met the same fate.)
