EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

                    ENDMASTER'S PROMPT CONTEST 2

Deadline: 11:59 PM (EST) March 15th, 2023

Reward: More than the losers

Starting off the new year with another contest again. It's another prompt based one so you slugs can choose which topic to write about and then inevitably flake out on like half of you did last time.

So if you’re joining, obviously pick one of the following prompts provided below and lock your post.

Joining the contest but failing to pick a prompt (Like fucking around like a retard posting in the thread saying you're "thinking about" joining the contest) will result in a random one still available being picked for you that you might not like so you probably shouldn’t do this bad thing. (And if you do, definitely don't whine like a faggot about it.)

Finally, when you’re done with your story, post a link to it in this thread.

That’s about it for now, unless I think of something else to add or change as needed.

Well in any case, if he fails to turn anything in both are banned.

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

Fortunately such types already picked the wholesome prompts.

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

one year ago

It would be funny if a future contest contains only cursed prompts.

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

one year ago

Mizal is of the mindset that the most cursed one is the grimdark Arthurian prompt. Not so much because it's grimdark, but more because no good can come from Arthurian mythos. She's not entirely wrong.

It is ridiculous how common Arthurian mythos is used in interactive fiction and I would like to see a CYStian create such a story to be the 1980s Excalibur oasis in the sea of faggotry that are the rest.

I added the grimdark bit since well let's be honest, that's what we excel at around here and if nothing else we'd get at least a Arthurian mythos filled with Warhammer level violence. (Among other grimdark things)

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

one year ago
If you just add a dash of Mark Twain, it could be a double cursed Connecticut Yankee fanfic. The part where they mowed down knights with Gatling guns was fun, though

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

one year ago

I think the best grimdark Arthurian mythos creation I've seen is King Arthur: Knight's Tale on steam, but it's an overused story in general. I mean, it feels like every other fantasy/medieval story has roots stemming from the roundtable on some level. That's even outside of interactive fiction. Honestly, it's what has turned me away from the fantasy genre in general (with a few exceptions). I guess people just like to use what 'works' and not take any risks.

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

one year ago

This is an unbased take that makes me doubt you've read it that much or even literally just watched Excalibur and let any of its poetry sink in for a second. Arthurian legend resembles most fantasy only in the sense that is medieval and takes place in a fantastical fascimile of England. In the actual telling of it, the world of King Arthur is one steeped in welsh mythology, old english culture, and the mindset of medieval catholicism intermingling with the magic of half-remebered pagan times, where bloodlines and fate are physical, albeit sometimes flexible forces, where chivalric honour tested by war and supernatural chaos is what draws the line between man and the barbarian who lives like a beast, and the fae sphere of influence is damn near like Silent Hill or The Zone from roadside picnic in the sense that forests take on this beautiful but dreamlike, liminal, and questionably interdimensional quality.

 

It's far from default and there's a lot to work with if you actually look at it, the issue here is that arthurian legend has been retold so many times, and is so public domain, that 90% of adaptations suck and only cover the broad strokes for an audience of mostly children.

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

one year ago

Know what, that's fair. I haven't delved too deep when it comes to fantasy and most of my exposure has come from what my family has shown me. Excalibur was not a part of that, but after having been forced to sit through Merlin (the show) and read numerous adaptations may have given me a tad bit of a skewed view of the genre. Now you've peaked my curiosity though and I may have to check out Excalibur. Maybe.

Arthurian Folk Tales meets Brothers Grimm appeals to me. I hope someone takes the prompt and writes something good from it. Magic the Gathering had a set a few years back called Throne of Eldrain that had some of the aesthetic.

Over half of the new prompts are CoG favorites with a twist, for anyone who doesn't recognize them. (I think it's obvious what the twists are, and which prompts End just added on his own.) The new CoG base loves nothing else like superheros and court intrigue and arranged marriages, and especially Arthurian stuff. The only thing missing is werewolves. (Whatever you're writing, be sure to add arranged marriages with werewolves.)

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

Terrorism attacks, Nazi Otto's life and committing genocide were my own added prompts.

Just want to make that clear so as not to confuse them with the degenerate CoG prompt twists.

Now that you're mentioning it, I did recall playing a gay wrestling cog story once. It was actually very hard not to accidentally stumble on a very graphic 18+ scene while playing.

I was a bit disappointed in the plot.

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

one year ago

Yep, Mara was a big fan of it, along with a lot of other CoGites because it was basically just gay porn and they're all into that sort of shit over there.

Naturally some wanted a female version of that, so might as well add it to the cursed prompt list. Naturally it won't get as graphic as we have to keep it family friendly around here, however I think the secret contestant who requested the prompt will be able to do a good job balancing things.

actually scratch that, but i do have one more idea, i know the prompt is to be narrated by the villain, but can it kind of, switch off? between the main character, an unnamed narrator, and the villain? it will be primarily the villain but i would use the main character and an unnamed narrator to explain parts of the story the villain couldnt know of due to lack of cameras/goons, but like 90% the villain (sorry if this isnt the best way to contact you guys im fairly new to all of this)

Far be it from me to slander Otto Skorzeny, but it's not out of the ordinary for nazi elites after the war to have been involved in terrorism and human trafficking. And anybody who's seen Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade knows how they feel about Arthurian Legend. Out of all the prompts that could've been left over, I think these have the most potentially interlocking pieces.

 

I will also never make this, though.

Thank you very much for your and Endmaster's mercy. Though it's hard for me to see my statement as a condemnation, but rather as a blessing in disguise. You would be joining the ragtag band of the three CYSketeers along with Ace and Paradox. I even have drawn a badge for this wonderful ensemble. Alas, t'was never meant to be.

EndMaster's Prompt Contest 2

It's very wholesome how you have such wide-reaching faith in humanity that you are able to assume being associated with Ace is an honor and distinguishment. Or, perhaps it's a blissful ignorance about site lore. Since, you see, I am not really a penguin, but rather a fantasy race that's too autistic to get into right now, and Ace is more sullen used-kitchen-oil soaking through a sack of laundry than tortoise. I simply can't help but approve of any penguin with a fancy hat, though.

Depends on your worldview.

Either you believe that there is a part of every human that can’t be reduced to simply biology like a soul or spirit, or you don’t and believe yourself to be a complex biological machine that acts the way it does due to electrical and chemical impulses.

In the first case, the reason you do the things you do lies in the fact that your soul is underdeveloped, corrupt, doesn’t conform to the ideal, etc., or you have a hard time putting the more correct impulses of the soul over the less correct biological impulses of the body.

In the second case, you have no free will, there is no reason, and nothing matters.

P.S. There are more views, but I don’t care.

Prompt: 
A story where you wake up one morning and everyone insists that you've been living for years with a certain family member, friend, or pet. Only you know for a fact you have no memory of them ever existing. What is going on here?

did have to ask for the title valiantly wrestle the title away from a dead account, but I think it ended up being worth it. I really enjoyed writing this one, I think it's definitely more balanced than my last storygame. Admittedly, writing is pretty hard, I might go back to just reading for a while before maybe focusing on a bigger piece sometime in the future.

This has been a good lesson for many of us. A lesson in what I don't know yet, but maybe we should be doing something differently, like writing or something?

If I don't manage to write a story today, I'm going to blame Corgi for running a Bloodborne oneshot on his DnD server yesterday. Because I'm not sure what else I'm realistically supposed to do in this situation, write a game BEFORE the day before the twice extended deadline?

Yeah. My story won't be done before the deadline. Please put me and mizal in the same cell just like last time. It's romantic that way.

Maybe.

I take no pleasure in this but Thara has said she is accepting SHAME.

This is a fucking slaughter.

I-I'll try posting the story... after the contest.. (I hate commitments, seriously) It will be even better.

I'm sorry, father.

Writing is so hard... I haven’t even finished the losing outcomes. 

It's too much work to do tonight. Fuck it. 

Even with multiple deadline extensions, I'm just a big fat loser and failure. 

Smh.

Less than 3 hours to go before SHAME

Though at this point half the people that joined have already been thrown in the pit. (Well not yet half, but it's heading that way)

Well, I'm gonna try to turn something in before the deadline but it's not looking good at all. This ain't just a slaughter we're getting massacred out here.

Oh, you fucked up. You really fucked up. Pray that the gods will find this amusing.

Edit: Seems the gods did not find it amusing, though the masses certainly did.

Even ignoring the co-author thing, the story is completely linear.

You're both SHAMED.

Congrats for being the first dual SHAMING for a story.

Less than an hour to go before the rest of your losers get SHAMED.

It isn't everything I hoped for, but it is something! I learned a lot about planning and pacing these things. It would have been much easier to write something fully linear, instead of mostly linear like it ended up being. Hopefully I'll salvage most of the writing currently sitting in my "cut content" folder.

The Painting of Red

EDIT: (a couple hours later) I just found a "choose destination" window open in my tabs. I'm terrified that some link or another is going to be broken.

Thanks for doing this.

The interesting stats for the numbers nerds:

At 49 entries, this was the second-most popular contest, second only to the last End prompt contest with 50 attempts.

With only 19 submissions, 38.8%, that's below average for a CYS contest, the average being 49.3% completions. That's in the lower third of completion rates. However, since there were such a large number of attempts, 19 is the second-largest group of submissions total from a contest. The most was also the last EM contest, with 29, and the next-largest was 18 from the year-end choose your prompt contest (2020). It would appear that prompt contests are more successful than other contests.

With 30 failures to submit, that is the largest number ever to sign up and not submit an entry.
