Massive Story Collab [name pending]

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?

>_> Way to let everyone help plan out. Turns out all my thinking just went to sh*t.

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.

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.
