Monster Creation~

feeds@yuku.com (Eternal) — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 22:09:47 GMT

Without directly using any generator. You may, however, take a result from a generator and build/alter it. Detailed, of course, along with both abilities/capabilities and weaknesses. Non-standard (ie. no the obvious stuffs we see like vampires/werewolves/kitsune/mutated humans/chimeras unless it's doesn't resembles the usual) and Magic, Sci-Fi, Supernatural sorts only (no fantasy-esque).

P.S. No 'good alignment' sorts either. ^^ aka no hero-friendly sorts.

Generator Easter Eggs (a REALLY hard challenge)

feeds@yuku.com (CrusadersUnderwear) — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 13:54:12 GMT

(With apologies to X. It is to your credit that this is a really hard challege.)

The generators that seventh sanctum has (and has access to) offers an amazing range of new ideas and food for thought. But (and this doesn't happen that often) ideas sometimes crop up that look awfully familiar. Generator Easter Eggs, if you will.

My challenge to you:

Find these little tiny slips when the infinte monkeys on infinte typewriters actually DO come up with an...

Dumb videogame adaptions done right

feeds@yuku.com (XWayfarer) — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 19:36:46 GMT

There is going to be a movie based on the classic arcade game Asteroids.

So I challenge you to take games that seem un-adaptable to films and TELL me how you'd make it work! Find a giant archive here.

New Job Titles

feeds@yuku.com (XWayfarer) — Fri, 29 May 2009 21:07:21 GMT

At Fan To Pro I noted an exercise to create new job titles. So, how can you reinvent job titles? Is an artist an Image Engineer? Is a cab driver an "Urban Transporation Specialist?" How can life be more interesting with a little rephrasing . . .

Worldbuilding Challenge, Round Two

feeds@yuku.com (anacharis) — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 09:38:45 GMT

Same rules as the first one.

"A world surrounded by blue-green rings..."

What he thinking???

feeds@yuku.com (Daemon Ulf) — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 02:25:46 GMT

I know I know my last one just wrapped up but I stumbled upon this picture and could not resist

For the picture below submit an entry on what you think the thing is thinking/saying. It can be funny, sad, mad, what ever comes to your mind when you see this picture. Same rules apply:

1) one entry per member
2) If possible...

Where in the world, am I?

feeds@yuku.com (Atlas) — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 02:04:41 GMT

This is more a game than a challenge, each person gives 3 fairly vague clues to a location near them. and the first person to get it goes next.

Look at the cute baby...

I found this interesting challenge on Errant Ephanies. It about the birth of a character. I am working on a story project that starts off with the main character's birth.

Here is the link if anyone wants to try it for a challange.

feeds@yuku.com (Atlas) — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 04:31:53 GMT

just me being a goof i suppose

artistic challenge

feeds@yuku.com (Atlas) — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 22:58:24 GMT

i suggested Double-W move this topic but she hasn't gotten round to it, so i'll do it for her:

"Hey All...
I want my main characters of my story I'm writing for NaNoWriMo to be drawn, or maybe done in photoshop, I really don't care but I want some kind of visual for them.

If anyone would like to take on the challenge please let me know so i can get you the descriptions of what characters and the settings I want drawn.

WhiteWyvern "

And I'd like to say thanks...

feeds@yuku.com (Vortex Duck) — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 05:40:22 GMT

In this 'challenge', insofar as it can be called one, the next person to post gives their thanks to the previous poster, either for something they have done for him/her, or something they have done for the world in general. Please note that of course this does not have to refer to real-life events and can be based entirely round SCIENCE!!! if you so wish. As I'm sure you do. Wolfgang.

Quest Challenge!

feeds@yuku.com (Wolfgang Kaiser) — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 00:35:06 GMT

Inspired by the Dungeon Challenge, I felt we needed something on a grander scale. Because, y'know, it's not like we're all busy with stuff or anything.

So! Using the Adventure Site Generator (any setting), Manon's Interesting Site...

City namer

feeds@yuku.com (antiochus) — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 20:38:48 GMT

Sorry if someone has asked for this already, or if there is a place in these forums to mention ideas for a new topic; I am new to this site. I think it would be great to have a city namer, one that gives you ideas for city or town names that aren't real names, and have no direct or specific nationality. I would be more than happy to supply some names I have come up with. You could also set limits like: french city names (ceverenne, etc.), spanish city names (zaracarta, etc.), english city...

Literary Fiction Extrapolation

feeds@yuku.com (Lord DragonFang) — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 02:20:01 GMT

After reading through this entertaining thread on the NaNoWriMo forums entitled "You Know You're Writing Literary Fiction When..." I thought it might make for an interesting challenge.
Write a sentence, anything at all, the next person explains how this is a deep and profound metaphor/psychological insight/abstract point about the nature of...

Enter...THE SCARY DOOR

feeds@yuku.com (Lord DragonFang) — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 02:58:43 GMT

You're entering the vicinity adjacent to the outside of a location, where there might be something mysterious, like a monster, or maybe something better....

You know those weird, mystical locations, like the Twilight Zone, or the Outer Limits, or the Scary Door, this challenge involves picking an appropriate sounding result from the Outer Plane generator, and writing an...
