Bonus Round 6

Recs

Hey, shippers! This is the last bonus round, which we’re all very sad about. So let’s talk about some of the awesome stuff created throughout the HSO!

Rules

Rec at least three fanworks from the main or bonus rounds! They do not have to be connected to each other in any way.

You may not recommend material created by members of your own team.

Each recommendation must include at least three full sentences about why it’s awesome. Please use the format specified below.

You may recommend as many sets as you like, so long as each set has at least three recs in it.

Title & Rec Format
If you are doing a fill, use this format in your title.

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 we cannot guarantee that it will be counted.

The content of the post should be in this format (extend as necessary):

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
For fills (as stated here):
First 5 entries in each post: 30 (per entry)
Entries 6-10 in each post: 20 (per entry)
Entries 11-15 in each post: 10 (per entry)
Entries 16+ in each post: 5 (per entry)

If you have any questions, please ask them at the FAQ post here, or email them to us (homestuck.shipping at gmail). Otherwise, we cannot guarantee that we will see them in a timely fashion!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

(This is a list of my favourite mr1 entries.)

Rec 1: Gambling: A Powerpoint (AR <3 PM <3 WV Main Round 1 Entry)
Team: AR <3 PM <3 WV
Creator:

exiletown (I don't know who actually did it, but whoever you are, you're awesome.)
Why I’m recommending it: This is just a really adorable entry. The idea of making a powerpoint on the topic of gambling was really neat, and I can imagine AR actually doing something like that. In particular, I loved the last panel of WV and PM - they look so happy, despite the fact the powerpoint is ridiculously tacky.

Rec 2: Bend Around the Blades (Dirk <3 Jake <3 Jane <3 Roxy Main Round 1 Entry)
Team: Dirk <3 Jake <3 Jane <3 Roxy
Creator:

alphachronism (I don't know who wrote the story, but

ferrrox did the art.)
Why I’m recommending it: This entry was just amazing. The pesterlogs (along with the rest of the text) were perfectly in character, and the art fit well with the dark tone of the fic. This entry came second in the round for a reason, so if you haven't read it yet, I strongly recommend it.

Rec 3: How Karkat Vantas Learned to Stop Worrying and Be the Bomb (Gamzee <> Karkat Main Round 1 Entry)
Team: Gamzee <> Karkat
Creator:

miracrails (Again, I don't know who actually did it.)
Why I’m recommending it: This entry was just hilarious. Believable pesterlogs, a really funny idea, and good art to match. I laughed a bit too much at the idea of Rose holding Kanaya back by putting her arm through her middle, and at the repeated misreading of upside-down emoticons.

Rec 4: Untitled (Sollux <> Terezi Main Round 1 Entry)
Team: Sollux <> Terezi
Creator:

801ch
Why I’m recommending it: This art is amazing. Sollux and Terezi both look so suave in their bar tender style outfits, and the perspective is really good. I like how the roulette wheel has all the quadrant symbols, and that it's landed in diamonds.

Haha, the Gamzee<>Karkat silliness was mine. I'm glad you liked it! :B
