Massive Story Collab [name pending]

Postby Blablob » November 7th, 2010, 7:00 am

Imagine a forum story where everyone contributed...


Today, such an image will become possible in our first Massive Story Collab!

Here's how it works. Mods will be discussing via PM the details on this story; all users who are selected to participate will pitch in on each chapter of the story. We'll give opinions on each other's work and make it as good as possible before finally releasing it to the public.

I can't reveal any more details on the story except for that, until we have everything ready to go. If you want to help out on the story, you have to PM to the mods (all mods, level mods, and user reps) a short story pertaining to the theme below. There are no rules, and no required amount of length; just make sure it is relative to the theme. And popular vote between the mods will be the decision of whether you get to help out or not.

The theme is: Real Life

Staff members planning to help on the story:
  • Blablob
  • Yoshi Boo 118
  • Shaxrixian
  • nin10mode
  • MICrophone
  • RemnantAbyss
  • Buffooner
  • fourinone (maybe)
  • Ridder
  • MessengerOfDreams
  • Usuario THf
  • Superyoshi
  • brandobrawl

…collaboration levels were taking place before the timeline. Were you stealing from them?

This is a story. That was a timeline. Big difference. It's not like there's anything particularly radical or original about collaborating that it's really "stealing" just because you did a collaboration on something completely different.

Well, the Staff Part kinda sucks.
Perhaps I should make a User One?

Silent Conversations and a Crow's Final Song!
My latest story, and one of my personal favorites. A girl bound in silence finds the words to say to her prospective girlfriend as they visit her religious father in a dusty town on the edge of Kansas, where the crows' migration south brings forth anchored memories, the path to resolution, and a new start.

This might be like nothing you've seen before.
Updated Works! Some of my past best and current stuff: show

Because the world needed a Samus/Dedede story

It's a dance that's been a long time coming for a brand new man and an unchanging woman, but once one takes the plunge there's no falling back up.
Original: Jealous Ghosts of the Mississippi
The story of Rachel meeting Amber after a lifetime of silence and being shunned
Original: Your Hand in Mine

I think I should clarify.

The theme of the collab is not necessarily Real Life. The theme has not yet been decided. The point of that theme is to give non-staff members who wish to contribute a theme on which to write a very short story so the staff can decide if said non-staff members ought to partake in the creation of the real collab. I too misunderstood that initially.

THE CREED: Nothing is True. Everything is Permitted.
"...That's rather cynical."

"It would be if it were doctrine, but it is merely an observation of the nature of reality.
To say that Nothing is True is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shephards of our own civilization.
To say that Everything is Permitted is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with the consequences, whether glorious...or tragic."
-Ezio Auditore da Firenze explaining the Creed, 1514, Masayaf.

At the top right, there's a box with all the usergroups in it. Click one of them, and you can send everyone in that group a PM.
