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:
[url=http://www.bungiefansonline.com/index.php?showtopic=1171]Contest rules are all listed here[/url]. 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: [b][i]Horror[/i][/b]
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 [b]Doom 3[/b] 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, [url=http://www.bungiefansonline.com/index.php?showforum=15]click here[/url] and post it, ask any questions [url=http://www.bungiefansonline.com/index.php?showtopic=1175]here[/url], 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 [b]Adventure[/b]. [url=http://www.bungiefansonline.com/index.php?showtopic=1172]Click here[/url] for more info and rules. You'll be able to post your fic's there soon.

[url]http://www.bungiefansonline.com/index.php?showtopic=1182[/url] The horror!!
-
You can post in contest number 1. Which i thought was self evident...no offense, but i guess i was wrong.
-
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.
-
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.

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. [Edited on 4/9/2006]

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. [Edited on 4/10/2006]

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

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Sgt Sarge Just about the only horrific thing in halo 2 os the flood and...legendary with blind skull<(pattent pending) But cool I like brilliants and rare's fanfic[/quote] 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. -TGP-

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... "Compelling. Vitamin knows suspense." --[i]New York Times.[/i] "His imagination has no bounds..."--[i]Baltimore Sun[/i] "Meh, what a jacka$s."-[i]Vitamin Zawaz[/i]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Great_Pretender Not that you could judge it, but I could write one about Myth. -TGP-[/quote] ...i'm just gonna disregard that... and zawaz, thx for the spam. its good to know that even the septagon still gets it.
-
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...
-
I could right some pretty good fanfic but I just dont have the time.
-
I vote for Zawz Bravo
-
Update on the contest, check the first post.
-
*Cheers* Good job sir_brilliant.
-
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.)
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] spartakus14 Good luck to all the Contestants.[/quote] i agree good luck... [Edited on 4/13/2006]

I would love to submit my story which is kinda about halo but has no master chief and is written for people who havent played halo, so its over descriptive, its about three marines, on their adventures in New Kyoto, which has strikingly similar design to new Mombassa, including the space elevator, scarab, and the cruiser, except the cruiser in my story is crashed and flood pour out of it, the ship explodes as they leave and they land in the forerunner ship, where they go as far as they can, their lonsword pilot dies and the use an escape pod to get to a human ship, which is abandoned, then they are attacked by the flood, lets just say they dont survive but the story simply moves on to different characters, is there such a genre for such a story? because the other 2 categories are pending, meaning they aint done yet. But if on of them is something that story will fit into then leave a post or put it in the weekly whats up date. And if it helps me win I can change some of the names to the Halo designers names. I love halo so I wrote that story in my spare breaks during school, its approx. 7 pages long but it can be longer, or I could end it, whatever. I would let my teacher read it for language but I'm a cociencious objector (you know, a coward)
