[OOC] Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

[Ookawa]

Fun fact, the formation Marcus chose is optimised to keep the team in one piece instead of the convoy.

Judging contest entries is hard, but I've chosen a winner and a runner up. Thanks to everyone who participated!

@Agent B52

Yay, Runner-up! It was very fun imagining stuff. And also, I found the winner the best, too. It was extremely horrifying with all the dialogue and stuff. Hope I can do good in a future contest, too! ^.^

By the way, how do the credits exactly work?

[harinezumikouken]

Pyro, check the google doc. As far as the contest, I actually thought of participating in this one. Don't know why I didn't. Chalk it up to laziness.

[Lady Seraphina]

As for the others you made some very good entries as well: I spent the better part of a day deciding! This was not an easy contest to judge, well done all of you!

@Agent B52

Just out of curiosity what did you think of my entry specifically? Specific criticism is helpful for improvement. A pat on the back, not so much.

Oh and @Lugubrious I don't know if you still have the 'That's Weird' RP in your subs or not so you might have missed the memo but I reposted the RP here. Anyone else who's interested is welcome.

[Guess Who]

The winner of Contest 9 is @Guess Who!

Primarily this entry won because I believe this is supposed to be a Ragnarok, and that is something I liked most: You took an already existing Grimm and made it terrifying and powerful. Second, I liked the mixture of solid facts and hearsay in the description. Both of these were more than enough to offset the somewhat short nature (compared to the other entries).

Runner up is @PyroDash888 with his/her 'grandmother's story' representation of Deimos. This is most definitively a personal preference and I make no excuses for it. I love myths, stories for by the camp-fire or the hearth, fables and their like.

@Agent B52

I- I won? Thank you Agent!

[Lugubrious]

New challenge is up. Do it nao.

[Guess Who]

New challenge is up. Do it nao.

@Lugubrious

Ooh, a very interesting concept. Going to go brainstorm ideas.

[Scarifar]

Will work on this too, when I have time.

[Ookawa]

New challenge is up. Do it nao.

@Lugubrious

No idea what I'd want to do there, so I might be sitting this one out. Also, I have my oral Geography exam on the 18th.

By the way, I'd love to post soon... *wink wink, nudge nudge*

[ClocktowerEchos]

@Lugubrious Should I go a head and make the antag I was speaking about?

@Lugubrious Should I go a head and make the antag I was speaking about?

@ClocktowerEchos

Yes, go ahead and do so and PM me the result, along with what antagonisms you envision your character doing.

[Lady Seraphina]

#10 - Challenge - Echo of the Self

@Lugubrious

I'm definitely getting in on that. Let the Days of Future Past begin.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Screw it, I'll pump something out while I try and figure out what's happened and what I should do next.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Also hey everybody 500 mile drives are fun

[Lady Seraphina]

I would walk 500 miles and I would walk 500 hundred more just to be the man who walked 1000 miles to fall down at your door.

Foolish mortal driving 500 miles. This is how real men do it.

[Guess Who]

Haha, hope you didn't think I missed the RvB reference at the end of that last IC post @Lugubrious.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Let's see you do it then buddy you get one stop for gas

Anyways what's good? At this point, would it be safe to just timeskip Luke a bit forward, to something like moving in or seeing Ozpin or something along those lines? Sorry to constantly ask questions like this, but things have been hectic and I'd rather make sure I have everything together than go full retard.

@HereComesTheSnow

Actually, so you don't miss out on missions, go ahead and get involved with RCJM's Underground Casino, which Guess Who is managing. I'll mention his encounter with Ozpin in passing for you.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Ah, alright. Guess it's a trial by fire to get him established for me then, cool.

[harinezumikouken]

I feel your pain, Snow. Recently had to drive 1000 miles myself. Eugh.

[HereComesTheSnow]

We brothers today harine

Anyways this'll definitely be an interesting way to start things
