RPGC #18: Adventure Calls - Discussion

[Frizan]

Feel free to direct any feedback or questions here! Please keep discussion relevant to the associated contest. All other Guild posting rules also apply.

[SleepingSilence]

Sure, I'll crack my knuckles and give this a try. One never gets better unless others review their writings.

[Loksfjoer]

Is there a minimum amount of different area's the must cross?

@Calle

As long as there's at least one change in geography, ala forest into desert, it will satisfy the requirements.

[ButtsnBalls]

Hmmmmm...

[SleepingSilence]

@Frizan No word limits, or other rules eh? Because I'm pretty sure mine's going to run a little long with what I have in mind. :P

@SleepingSilence

That will absolutely not be an issue! Go nuts!

[Silver Carrot]

Is there a minimum wordcount?

Negative

@Frizan This may sound like an asinine request/question. But would prompts allow more than one story to be posted? (Maybe that should be an actual prompt some time. Multiple stories. ;P) Before the voting period? Like maybe showing possible prompts to the forum (and get feedback on which story should be entered.) My limited experience with this was two different versions of the same story posted by someone. (and they eventually chose one of them) from outside suggestions.

This is sort of an unwritten rule of sorts. But how picky are you with (should one be) having outside assistance/suggestions? (obviously, as long as no one's outright writing sections for you. I'd assume it's alright?)

@SleepingSilence

For this prompt, I'd prefer one story per person. Though in the future, prompts may involve showing multiple outcomes of the same base story or something similar.

As for taking outside feedback into consideration, I have no qualms about it. As long as, as you said, no one is writing your entry for you.

[SleepingSilence]

My god. I didn't realize how busy I'd be while still trying to write a prompt. I really ended up needing all the spare time I could get. ^-^'

@Calle Hey, the good news is if nobody else posts a story in a week. You just win by default. xP

[Loksfjoer]

There's a weekend coming up, I'm sure people will find time to write something ^_^
Last RPGC there were some last day entries too.

[Silver Carrot]

I won't even be able to start until the weekend, so yeah.

[SleepingSilence]

I still plan on getting an entry in. But if I don't manage it, fault is my own for failing time management. (If no one else posts anything, I don't want any slack. Everyone received plenty of grace time.)

But I'm going to spending even more days working and afk. So I hope I'll be able to finish the last fifth of my own story and edit and add more to the bare bones, if it feels necessary. (and if I can manage to have free time to do that writing.) ^-^'

[Mattchstick]

I have an idea for this but I don't know if I can drag an actual story out of it.

[Frizan]

Just a couple of days left; write'em up and throw'em down while you can!

[SleepingSilence]

@Frizan Just making sure. Because it's going to be a close one for me, from how busy I've been. The entries close on midnight on the 25th right? Since the 24th is the last day of submission. (What timezone?)

@SleepingSilence

Yes, midnight of the 25th. Central Time.

I'm glad to see another entry in the contest ^_^ Let's hope for a few more
