RE: IFC All Star Round. (Open to anyone who wants to play!)
Great post @apolymask!
Brilliant your picking this contest type for d all star round, and thanks for inviting me. It's going to be fun writing it as well as reading other entries - with the single storyline going in different directions. I can imagine a collision!
And ah, yes! the idea of moving location each season and starting a new journey signifies enticing new developments and landmarks for the ifc. It's beautiful.
I totally love the foundation Cryptotia story and your buildup on it. But I was like, "Why do we want to keep old Cryptotia? What "archaic citizens" want to stay back in an old city and don't want to move to the new? (I think like kids some of us just totally love new things, lol.) But when I read on I couldnt but agree! There's so much to learn from Cryptotia! Then, there's the beauty and value of preserved culture, and not forgetting the emotional attachment to something you have worked so hard at. I can directly relate to that. So I'll do my best to help salvage old Cryptotia in my writing but kindly do not send me back to maintain it when the new adventures are taking place!
P.S.
DONT use my enthusiasm to judge the quality of my story, please. I'll be playing with some very creative-minded people who are able to conjure up terrific fantasies! I remember that episode on dreams, I probably was the only one who had ordinary dreams. God, I thought, what do these guys think in their heads, landing in other planets, strange places and all?
So I'll have a go at becoming a real Cryptotia citizen this time while looking forward to reading some amazing, perhaps ribcracking write-ups.
Happy birthday @apolymask!
Thanks for the great feedback boladayl! You're welcome for the invite! I'm particularly excited to see what you come up with. :) You're a very talented writer.
I think you nailed it pretty good. There's definitely some sentimental value to Cryptopia and I don't wanna see it go away. In a lot of video games I've played you can often expand your territory so to speak and I see this as sort of similar! I see it as a way for us to expand our imagination at the very least. :) But.. Also to expand and create new artwork and perhaps there's some other possibilities there as well, this game is still very young and we're figuring it out as we go, so.. Maybe we'll figure out something new in the future and do it differently! Time will tell, I think this is a good start though. :)
No worries! Heh. I try to be OCD extremely fairand pick the ones I think are the best or that I like the most, it can get difficult sometimes, but I definitely try to be very professional about it and not consider external things outside of the entry itself. I'm super excited to see your story! Good luck in the contest! And hey, you're already a real Cryptopia citizen in my opinion. :)
Thanks for the birthday wishes as well! Cheers! :D
