The Never-ending Avatar Contest (that ends 1/31/11)

What is this? Did Geb put you up to it?
This is another Avatar contest, similar to the logo contest. Instead of making a silly holiday logo, you will now be required to make posts on the Never-ending Story Squared thread, in the Interactive Storyboard Forum. And no, this was not Geb's idea. As of writing, he doesn't even know about it >.>

Oh God, what do I have to do?
Simply put, write for the thread! The person who has the largest word count by the end of the month (across all posts they make between now and then in that thread) will be allowed an avatar of their choosing, to last until the next contest.

What are the rules?
You do NOT need to read the entire thread. It is recommended that you read the previous post, but reading beforehand is not required!

Your posts MUST make some semblance of sense. It is highly suggested that you go off the current writer plotline to make it easy on yourself, but you may also start a new subplot, or if you DO read the thread, you can continue the story as well. The options are nearly endless, do not worry too much about plotholes, the NeS is filled with 'em.

Remember, you get credit by the word, not the number of posts! Don't spam!

Stick with the spirit of this game, don't be an ass. I reserve the right to kick anyone out of the contest if they're being stupid/trolling.

The deadline?
Again, the end of this month, January!


Good luck! Have fun!

Oh geez! I better triple-time my own idea to get new writers if I don't want to be the sole contestant in this. (Though seriously, I would hope I'm excluded from this contest, as otherwise it'd be pretty pointless.)

And about hypnotoad--

ALL HAIL THE HYPNOTOAD!

Eh... I've actually been meaning to post anyway. No offense, CM, but I really don't care about winning or being a participant in the contest. I'm just going to try and write, feel free to exclude me.

Awww... .(

But why? I really was meaning to post in the first place just haven't had the chance recently. By no means do I think the contest is stupid or anything, it's actually a solid idea, I had just made my decision beforehand and now it seems like had some other motive besides enjoying writing.

On a side note, I was looking for a great place to start and your last NeS post gave me just the opportunity. Thanks, boss. :XD:

That's fine if you had motivation before. Consider it lucky timing. You still can win. :P

For anyone who does post, I will be attempting to illustrate whatever characters you might introduce to attach to their introductory posts. You can see the example I've tried to set in the first two posts here:

Please try not to introduce a bajillion characters for the sake of my poor art hands.

I still wont contribute but maybe if people start introducing a bunch of scantily clad woman characters for Geb to draw then I could possibly find the motivation to read it.

Can I get an avatar for being a lazy ****?

Really, I don't even care if it's a gif of a poop with wiggly stink lines.

I would just like to say that I will still be aiming to draw any major characters people introduce even after this contest is over.

Even scantily clad ones, lol? I'm not sure The Censor would approve... :neckbeard:

I don't know about that. You posted quite a bit. To be honest, I am slightly surprised that some of the people didn't post more often.
