[OT]Competition Time! - The Civil War

[[PCGF]Jay]

Ah. Creating or rebuffing?

[[PCGF]Jay]

Right, I've found all the prizes I can give away, and I've also updated the original text with some muinor updates, as well as ideas for articles

Carry on creating (assuming you are anyway)

[[PCGF]Jay]

If there's no interest by Wednesday mods, feel free to lock this thread >.<

Oh hold on now .. I'm intrigued very much by the idea. I could use a little clarification, if I may.

Maybe I'm a bit daft, but is the idea to write any genre, any fFormat, about the war?

I've an idea of something really grandiose to write, But I don't want to, you know, anounce it, lest I fFail to complete it, and then where would I be, eh?

Cheers!

I have an idea . . . for the atrocity section, that is.

[[PCGF]Jay]

Well... get cracking then. I'll extend the deadline till this Friday

[Macavity]

Um, quick question - would it be all right to include a bit from something that would normally go into the PXC Trials section? I would like to, just to provide A) a hook for anyone else to work from, and B) a sort of follow-up to what happened.

[[PCGF]Jay]

As a wiki, if it's better then the information already there, feel free to edit

[[PCGF]Jay]

Thanks for the entry Macavity! I'll be keeping copies of who did what so there'll be NO arguments as to who did what.

Also: C'mon people! Contribute! THERE'S PRIZES AVAILABLE PEOPLE!

Egads!

EDIT: I've just noticed Macavity lives in the US >.<

EDIT2: Also, someone better bump off the Army soon. Looks like Macavity decided to remove the Army from Viendienbourg and have the Northern alliance in power.

Excellent stuff! This should an interesting story for the middle of the war!

I'll get to writing...

[locqust]

Scott you werent gonna write the whole war were you? Cos If I get time I wouldnt mind having a crack at the beginning of the civil war section, doubt I will have it done by Friday though.....

[Scott]

the whole war? lordie no. please do write what you will. I'm brewing something. no worries.

[Scott]

By the way, Jay, I've been meaning to tell you. Your dates are off by about a century. The war was almost certainly before the modern era. you start catalystic events -- General Mason's assassination -- In 56 AC. That's uhm .. probably off by quite a leap. Earlier you state the technology started going crazy in about 10 AC, but the cube was already in Academy hands fFor 3 years by then. So really, if you take all your dates and back them up by no less than 100 years, you'll be fFine. In fFact, I believe the end of the war spurred on the modern era. People decided to put the old heinous ways behind them, and move on with their lives. Even the old holidays were abandoned fFor 22 years into the modern era.

We don't know when the war was, but it was almost absolutely entirely in the BC time fFrame, not AC.

[[PCGF]Jay]

Actually, this was intended. I put the ownership of the Cube at the centreof the conflict. Makes things more interesting. The large timeframe is delibrate as I wanted the technology to develop militarily first. New technology doesn't mean it can be used to it's full value!
