BONUS ROUND 2
Bonus Round 2
The Return of Round Robin Fanadventures
Comments have been screened; we will be tallying the points over the next 48 hours or so, after which we will unscreen the comments. Comments have been unscreened! You may continue the fanadventures on this post as long as you like, though we will not be awarding further points.
Hi shippers! Welcome to Bonus Round 2.
Round Robin Fanadventures generated so much awesome stuff last year that we decided to bring it back!
For those who are new to HSO, this is not actually that complicated a concept, but it might be a little tricky to explain, so bear with me. The point of this round is to create a bunch of fanadventures that are for a team other than your own.
Rules
- If you are starting a new adventure: start a new thread using the title format defined below. Include either text or 1-2 pieces of embedded art setting a scene (or both!), and finish with a command (==> does not count as a command for new threads). Then sit back and wait for someone else to contribute!
- If you are continuing an adventure: find a thread that does not center around your team's ship. Then comment using the title format defined below. Include either text or 1-2 pieces of embedded art continuing the scene (or both!), and finish with a command (this can include ==>, though generally we would prefer otherwise). Then sit back and wait for someone else to contribute!
- For ease of reading, we suggest using standardized image sizes. 600x400 landscape is a pretty good size! But as long as it's the same as the other images in the thread, people will have an easier time following along. The HTML for inserting images is <img src="http://yourimageurlhere.com">
- For this challenge, there is no minimum wordcount. We are trusting you not to abuse that fact!
- You may not comment twice in a row in one adventure. The point is to hand off the scene like a hot potato.
- You may not introduce or create for your team's ship into a fanadventure. If someone else introduces your team's ship to a thread, you can still contribute to that thread so long as your contributions do not involve your ship.
- This challenge will run until 11:59PM EDT July 7. After that time, even if it's just by a minute according to the LJ timestamp, no submissions will be accepted for points.
NOTES:
- Audio posts are fine, so long as you include a transcript.
- Please make sure to check that your titles are correct!
- You may answer commands that have already been answered. Think of it like a 'choose your own adventure' game!
Title Format
If you are starting a new thread, use this format in your title.
Replace [THEIR SHIP] with the ship you want this particular fanadventure thread to be. Remember that you cannot create a fanadventure based on your own ship. Whatever ship you choose must be represented by a HSO team not your own. The only exception is gen adventures, which are permitted.
Replace [YOUR SHIP] with the name of the team YOU belong to; please use the characters and quadrant, not whatever portmanteau or nickname you've come up with. If your team name is not in this format and in the title it may not be counted.
If you are continuing a thread, use this format in your title.
Replace [COMMAND] with whatever command the previous fill has specified.
Replace [YOUR SHIP] with the name of the team YOU belong to; please use the characters and quadrant, not whatever portmanteau or nickname you've come up with.
If your title is not in this format it may not be counted.
Posts not using this format in the title will be understood to be unofficial discussion posts, no matter what they contain. They, like all comments on the comm, are subject to the Wank Policy.
Scoring
(as stated here)
First 5 entries per team: 30 (per entry)
Entries 6-10: 20 (per entry)
Entries 11-15: 10 (per entry)
Entries 16+: 5 (per entry)
All fanadventure content must be created new for this round.
We would prefer that any questions about this challenge or anything else in the HSO be emailed to us at homestuck.shipping AT gmail!
>Eridan: Inquire the wizard... (FILL: TEAM SLICK<3<SNOWMAN)
ERIDAN: so wwhen the fuck are you gonna teach me your bullshit magics anywway so i can go home
ERIDAN: thats wwhat im here for isnt it
ERIDAN: somehoww i doubt that moppin the floor is gonna teach me a wwhole lot
ERIDAN: not evven stupid fakey fake things
ERIDAN: that are fake
ERIDAN: like magic
ROSE: It might teach you a bit of humility. You are most certainly in desperate in need of that.
ROSE: Besides, how can you expect to learn something if you insist on referring to it as, and I quote, "fakey fake bullshit"?
You scowl. Of course she isn't going to give you a straight answer. When has she ever? All she does is talk riddles. Riddles and magic seem to go hand in had, probably because they are both stupid and dumb.
Still, you have to (grudgingly) admit that she does have a point. She won't teach you anything if you keep adamantly telling her you don't want to learn it.
In every good rivalry, you have to pretend to compromise, at least sometimes.
> Eridan: Ask Rose to teach you some
fakey fakemagic.> Eridan: Ask Rose to teach you some fakey fake magic (FILL: TEAM SOLLUX<>TEREZI)
Almost
You are Lord Eridan fucking Ampora and you will not do what this self proclaimed 'wizard' wants, you will not give in! These chores are simple a disgrace to your station!. Besides she doesn't even have a beard, what kind of powerful wizard doesn't have a beard?
No she is obviously a fake.
Fef must have known that and send you down here to spy on her and to prove that. That MUST be why you're here, after all even wigglers now that magic isn't real.
So you do what any good spy does, snoop.
>Eridan: drop that mop and rummage through that
wizardsfakers stuff and see what you can find
