AGS Chain Story: Sign up!
« on: 04 May 2010, 17:38 »
It's been way too long since our last chain story!  So, let's do it again!  Last time was very successful with six awesome and weird stories created by 20ish awesome AGSers.  See the results here.

I've got a fun idea to keep things fresh for this round.  A little simpler than last time, a little zanier than last time.  I'm going to stick with the three teams idea and again make it a competition with a vote at the end and signature trophies for everybody!  So, post below to sign up for this round!

Sign ups will go for one week, and we'll get underway on May 12th-ish.  Don't sign up if you know you're going to be busy or away from the computer for a couple days in the week or so after May 12th.  People disappearing really breaks up the flow!

I'm hoping for around 20 people again.  When I have an idea of how many peeps we'll have I'll announce the rules and then we'll be underway!

Thanks!

Be sure to post your email address as well, or if you don't want it posted here, email it to me at vince.twelve@gmail.com or PM it to me.  Please post below regardless!

I also need a volunteer to create the trophies!  Last year they were generously created by Atelier Games.

As for trophies, I'd love to create some again, but only if nobody else is interested. Really looking forward to the stories, as before. :)

Thanks for signing up to everybody so far!  And Jim, I take it you've volunteered to create trophies!   :P  I'll PM you later since we'll need a couple different variations on the trophies since there will be a couple different prize categories!

I'd love to join, but I'm not sure I have the time.
What amount of time and at what hours would this require?

Like last time, everyone will have three turns.  During your turn, you'll receive a partially-completed story and have 48 hours to add 200 words to that story.  So as long as you think that in any given 48 hour period over the next couple weeks you'll have enough time to:

-read a story
-consider how to continue it
-write 200 words
-and pass it on

then you're good!  Of course sometimes people's turns overlap and you might have two stories piled on you at once and still have to complete them in that 48 hour period.  This happened to one or two people last round.

Mainly people just need to not be vanishing for extended periods.
