Battle Of The Scribes

"His face melted down in less than a second, for a moment the rest of the body was just standing there and I thought he would attack me again while performing some last reflexes. But he simply fell backwards and died. Fuck it! I should have been more carefully. This town isn't a safe place, I should have known. I was just lucky and tried to get out of the area as quick as possible...."

Balthasar, hello there! Wonderful idea with the event. I am for myself isn't a writer, but still interesting to read some stories. 
I just have some suggestion on it. You can add some holo-disks with these stories to random places(can make even spawn points - like it the bookshelfes in Klamath or other towns) or give em to random npcs. So players could find it ingame and enjoy some author text. This whould result in one more beautiful rpg element. What do u say?

I'd like the idea but i guess GMs dont want to spawn lots of holos within the wasteland for free.

[Izual]

If it's limited amount (<10), why not.

[Advarsky]

Why is that GMs will be againts it - to spawn holodiscs in random places..? It is so great..! I think the game MUST develop all the time..

[Izual]

Spawning new items isn't good, but in small quantities and for event purpose (and such harmless items as holodisks), it's okay.

[philipos]

can you tell us what is the maximum letters we can use ?

[Crysis]

I believe it's 1090, But i'll have to check with that...

[Balthasar]

Its about 1890 chars/letters.

[philipos]

ok thanks. i'll have to work my slang/urban english language now if i want to keep the "FO colour"

*UPDATE*

Event will start today. All who wish to take part meet me in The HUB around 19:30 CET +2 (thats in about 6 hours from now on ). You don't need to take anything with you. Just have a story ready (in wordpad or similar) to be copied later on. Those who have subscribed before and told me their nicks just need to be online around this time and will be teleported to the event area.
