Subject: Fanfic Contest Updated: 4/25/06

That's right everyone, we've got a new fanfic contest starting right now! Here's all the info you'll need for participation:

Contest rules are all listed here. Read them before posting anything. Anything.

This contest will work differently than last time. Its still being hosted by BFO, but this time we're holding several different contests at different times. Each contest, as you will see in the rules, follows a certain theme, which is based on the prize being given out. That's right, prize.

There are prizes this time, and you'll get them for sure.

The first contest is based on the following theme: Horror

The basis of this is to write a fanfic, bungie based (which means halo, myth, oni, anything bungie), that is not just any normal story, but a horror. I want people to write things that are frightening, scary, and will make my seat wet!

And the prize for such an endeavor? A copy of Doom 3 for xbox. The length limit is set for 7,777 words, although that does not mean, by any means, that it should be that long. It can be 100, 1,000, or 7,777. Whatever you like, as long as it doesn't go over.

So go an write, click here and post it, ask any questions here, and have fun. The contest begins now!

We're also looking for anyone who wants to help out with the contest in any way. If you do, send me a pm or email with whatever you want to help out with.

EDIT~the second contest is up, and its theme is Adventure. Click here for more info and rules. You'll be able to post your fic's there soon.

Everything will be gone long before me. When the first living thing was born, I was here, waiting. When the last living thing dies, my job is finished. I'll put the chairs on the tables, turn out the lights and lock the universe behind me when I leave.

I'm done, just don't know which place to put it. There's like 4 different threads.

I think it would be helpful to know what the themes for the other contests will be so that we will be able to choose which one we want to participate in.

  • 04.09.2006 6:15 PM PDT

more themes will be given in due time. We're working on a tight schedule, and i'll make sure to keep everything clean and organized so that we don't have problems like before. The next them will be given out shortly.

The forum has been renamed. Just to let everybody know, it is now known as, "Horror Contest."

Just like the last contest, guests can post... but that certainly doesn't mean we can't see their IP addresses.

Well, my Halo 3 fan-fic that is in my signerature is actually along the lines of horror as you read on(and gets extremely better as well. The begining starts off kind of slow and boring, sadly.). Unfortunately, I have finished it yet, but it is coming close to an end.

That's good. I certainly hope that you add a Comedy theme to this contest. I have written a humerous, Grunt fan-fic.

well, you don't have to write about halo2. In fact, i'll be the first to say that i'm looking forward to reading other fic's from bungie, from other games. Oni, Myth, anything at this point. Halo's good and all, but its been awhile.

Not that you could judge it, but I could write one about Myth.

Here is my new children's book!

---Vitamin Zawaz's quest for knowledge---
Vitamin Zawaz ate little children,
and spat them back out,
and ate their regurgitated remains,
and re-regurgitated them.

He liked bunnies and played with them.
He ate them too.

VZ also liked deer.
He ate them too.

He also had a girlfriend.
She was eaten by a walrus.

The End! ^_^

No compliments please, I already know how awesomely cool my book is...

It sadens me to see spam. I think we should use this thread for questions only. If you want to discuss about contests, there's a group for that...

"Maybe someone up there was wondering what it's like here"
"I guess, do you think will ever meet them"

I'm guessing you already stated this somewhere, but is it possible to win in more than one category? (I'm not asking this because I expect to win, I just don't want to post a bunch of stories when I only have the chance of winning one.)
