The FFR Scary Story Event
As the time draws nearer toward the annual night of fright, our complicated relationship with the macabre once again begins to steal the spotlight. Let us all contribute to this effort, as the master story tellers we are, by bringing these chilling themes close to home... FFR Scary Story Event! Now is your chance to put forth your literary workmanship, to create a piece which will keep it's readers cowering in fear, or perhaps dying of laughter. Bring us to your world, and take us on a journey too entertaining to put down! If you wish to participate, simply post your story in this thread. You will have quite a bit of time to write something up, so don't worry about rushing an entry in (there are no prizes for earliest submissions). There will also not be any imposed length limits, so feel free to make your story as long or short as you feel. Entries will be accepted until October 24th, 11:59PM server time. Voting will take place from October 25th at 12AM to October 26th at 11:59PM server time, where users may post in this thread to nominate which stories are their favorites for various categories. You can vote for the same user in multiple sections. These categories include: Best overall - This is simply the story that you personally enjoyed the most. Which was the one you felt the most satisfaction after reading? Most frightening - Which of the ones you read gave you the most goosebumps, and left you feeling unsettled after the tale was told? Most comical - Sometimes tales of fright move readers in the exact opposite direction. Which story gave you the biggest laugh? Best imagery - Which author wrote their world the most vividly for you to experience? Rules: - The story must not break any site rules - Your story must have some aspect of the site or it's members within it. As this is an FFR story telling event, let's try to put at least a hint of FFR in it. - Don't plagiarize - Users must not vote for their own entries, must have an account which is at least 2 months old, and have 5 or more forum posts. Prizes: Best overall story 1st place: 35k credits, your choice of two event or support tokens, and the posting of your story on the front page! 2nd place: 25k credits, and you're choice of an event or support token. 3rd place: 15k credits Most frightening, comical, or best imagery categories 1st place: 20k credits, and your choice of one event or support token* 2nd place: 20k credits 3rd place: 10k credits *Token not applicable if you receive a token reward from the best overall story section. I look forward to the wonderful things you'll all come up with! Last edited by PrawnSkunk; 10-31-2014 at 02:10 PM.. |

Once upon a time there was a great Stepmania master. He ruled the Stepmania world and could not be beaten.

Re: The FFR Scary Story Event
I've got one, but how do we submit? Mine is a short story I wrote a few months back, but that being said it's like 12 pages long so I dunno if it would fit in a comment or not.

Re: The FFR Scary Story Event
A scary story involving stepmania? Oh god. I don't suppose we can copy already current creepy stories, or make a spinoff from other famous creepypastas to make the story fit the genre, can we?

Re: The FFR Scary Story Event
Usually I use Google docs in cases like this where it's lengthy cause you can set it to where anyone with a link can view.

Re: The FFR Scary Story Event
Hooked an idea for a story, might write a bit tonight. Who knows, might finish before the night's out.
Are we allowed to have other FFR players proofread our stories as long as they don't plagiarize? Or is this strictly solo/by the individual/no help. Last edited by gold stinger; 10-14-2014 at 06:29 PM.. |

I'll say you should try and make this as much of your own effort as you can. However I won't make it a rule to keep the story to yourself before submitting or anything, because there really isn't any way I could stop someone from doing it.

Re: The FFR Scary Story Event
ps the FFR event threads here & the banner thread should be up in the Latest Events section of the home page, because you know, they're new, and they're events.
