*NOTE*
There will not be any killing in the event, only writing! PvPers might not be interested!
"I saw his face when I entered the room. One could clearly say that he doesn't like visitors. That blue robe was somewhat confusing, but his eyes weren't blue, they were red. I began to think in what I had gotten myself into...
He's looking at me right now as I am writing my contest-text, I see his eyes, they are burning with passion, and not with wrath. After spending time in this small, library-ish room, I began to feel like I was.... home. Funny, even my tent doesn't seem to feel as strong as this place does. I'll finish this contest-text quickly now.
The other scribes present in this room aren't as intimidating as he is. The other scribes are calm, relaxed and supportive, but they don't show as much passion as the blue-robed man shows. Who is he? Why is he looking at *me*?"
A new topic in events sub-forum?? Amazing!
Since the
original one was a huge success (not commercially, but the content is what matters), I've decided to make something similar, again.
The event isn't focused around killing and pew pew as most of the events are, it's about writing and storytelling. It is required from you to be able to write a good fan art story, focused in Fallout (or even FOnline: 2238 world, if you like) world. Having a good english skills is obviously a possible leverage over others, but an excellent story with a bit weaker spelling can still win the contest.
There will not be that much people participating, it will only make the event longer / you'll probably get bored.
How to participate?
Participating is a bit different also from the usual ones, you won't be gathering in vault 15 (or something), but instead of that, you will be sending me a
private message with the following specifications:
- A small preview of your story, enough to make you earn a spot in the contest, but not telling much about the actual story.
- Why should you get to participate in the event?
But the holodisk is so dull, how can I write my long story in it?
You can use any 3rd party program for this. Notepad, word, IRC (IRC logs as story are not valid). As long as you are capable of writing the story elsewhere, and being able to copy it from there, and paste to the holodisk, everything is allowed.
when, when, When, WHEN?
(if) After getting enough participants, I will announce the date of the event.
