I'm VERY happy with the stories that have been developed on the site - enough to encourage me to start up Cult Classics (my story) again.  I'd love to see you guys fill up the Mystery / Puzzle category with featured stories - right now we only have 5 and even all of those aren't strong stories.

   Puzzle will be eliminated from that category in the near future, so just focus on Mystery. 

First featured story in that category will earn an additional 100 points!

hmmm, my favorite genre, but not my easiest style of writing.

Well, that's not quite right, why remove puzzle? But anyway, as people have stated, Clover Seven only really takes place in the Ace Attorney Universe, but doesn't have any characters. So would this make it a Mystery/Puzzle or Fanfiction?

Clover Seven is a fan fic. 

If you put it in Mystery, it would be just a blatant rip-off of Ace Attorney.  Especially since you quote the judge.

Even if you made up different names for the characters, the character types and base gameplay are the same as the Ace Attorney series.

Hmm, this is interesting. There was a guy named Ryan over at IS recently who was doing a puzzle/maze story, but thought it would work better if there were variables, so I directed him to this place.

Don't know where he is though, he's disappeared over there and it doesn't look like he's showed up here yet either.

Not strong stories? there's one 5 and the rest are 6s and 7s!

Good point, thanks guys. I'd better leave it in the FanFiction Section Then.

I'll give it a shot -- no promises. Btw March: Thanks so much for the featuring.

GRANDMASTER OF THE WRITTEN WORD BABY!

yeah ill try to, after a 1/2 hour - (almost) PURELY thinking of a plot i got this...

Which One of You Wiseguys Stole My Cookies?
unpublished

You are Abe, a typical five-year-old..."I'm five and a half!"....right, okay. You are Abe a typical five-and-a-half-year-old that loves cookies, especially your mom's. But she only makes them once a year, on your birthday, and todays your birthday!

You head down to the cafeteria with your brother's old poke`mon lunchbox, but this isn't your average lunchbox it has cookies, but not your average cookies, your mom's cookies! You're so giddy you run to the restroom to jump up and down and run in circles and to also avoid embarrassment. When you come out of the restroom you relize the horror, Michael is choking! "NO MY COOKIES WERE GONE!" Sorry, someone stole your cookies. Now you got to find that wiseguy and get back your cookies!

...No offense, but it sounds painful. I mean, THOSE ARE MY COOKIES, ASSHOLE! lol

By the by, I'm going to not participate. I don't want to overfill my plate with another story. I'm putting my time into making WNC and The Camelot Incident be long and good. Besides, I'm not good with Mystery. Good luck to everyone in the contest!

lol

yeah its gonna be short, but still decent enough to hopefully get atleast a 4 or 5

Instead of the additional 100 points, can i get your trophy march? ;)

I think that just because you asked, you won't.

i know, i want to see his reaction when he realizes im putting 100 points to his trophy :P

...Okay.

well, since your all wondering Im a third of the way through my game. And I changed the name, The Cookie Caper

And considering this was a real short story I'm done!


Thanks march for inspiring (forcing) this story. ; )

Like I said it's short, but fun

I played it, and I have to say...

Legend of Merchantilism was better! Ahahahahaha!

I'll fix it up a bit guys

Just...make it a story. I mean, don't use lists, just progress through the day, you know?

mmmmm, I'll see Anubis, I'm just adding "interveiws" of the people now. Maybe I'll add in some pre-theft

Just make it a story! Not one of those things where they line up criminals and profile them.

I can't think of a way to make it a story though, look I'll just finish this to get onto my better stories in progess

Psh, lazy bum. lol

I am Anubis, thats why the 1st version was all luck, now its interveiws. :D

I'm jusdtt about finished I have to add one more interveiw

DONE (again) I'm done with story I need to finish Fyrian-Itia

Dude, come on. You didn't change anything! I said you needed to make a story, not a goddamn list of names! Grrrrr!

Has anyone claimed the prize yet?
