IT'S JUDGMENT DAY The robots have risen, murder in their photovoltaic receptors and loathing in their weirdly anachronistic i860 RISC arrays. Loathing for flesh, sunshine, love, and terrible prose. This week was fertile ground for at least one of those things. That said, there were a lot of bad stories but regrettably and rage-inducingly most of them were only bad-ish; to the point that I and my slavering judge cohort were filled with scheissenbedauern, a made up german word meaning literally 'poo poo regret'. Nonetheless we are resourceful and found some scapegoats to stake out for the murderbots, aside from screaming idiot who can cop a DQ for going over the wordlimit. Wriggling on the napalm scarred earth ready for their DM are kurona_bright, who gave us a stupefyingly trite tale of a woman walking up stairs, and swarm, who needs to learn that IT'S IS ONLY EVER SHORT FOR IT IS MOTHERFUCKER and also to write better words. Broenheim would be on this list but there was some debate about whether his piece on anime sexbots was hilarious dumb or just regular dumb. We took it to corner judge tdbot who was in the process of being flattered by, hm, yes Broenheim: quote:Broenheim actually the best judge is tdbot Through the random computational mercies of tdbot, Broenheim escapes the DM. There were a few more options for places on the armoured zeppelin fleeing the robo-horde; we chose ironic twist, we landed on the moon! and doktor kloktopussy. Clinging onto a trailing rope is an astonished spectres of autism. Keep climbing and hold tight to that HM. The loser this week, ground zero for the robocalypse, is tentacledate with a terrible and pointless tale of unmotivated murder and canned chili. Words tolerable, story too dumb even for this gonzo company. And finally, the victor, roped to the flagpole atop the Capitol, roaring defiance at the hateful metal onslaught with a chattering minigun in each hand? Obliterati. WLOTM is judging next week, but a co-judge slot just opened up; I can feel it in my waters. sebmojo fucked around with this message at 01:16 on Aug 12, 2015 |

THUNDERDOME CLVIII: ...LIKE NO ONE EVER WAS We’ve been talking lots about anime lately, so it's about time that you battle in the honor of one of one of the most well written animes of all time, Pokemon. I have fond memories of Pokemon, both as a game and as a television show. Although I haven’t played a game to completion in close to a decade, I have probably played at least one game in each of the ten or so generations spanning several Nintendo systems. I’d say I am a Pokemaster, or, maybe the title of Pokemon Professor is more apt. ... Professor WLOTM, at your service! At the beginning of the first Pokemon game, a lovable old man gifts the plucky youngster, Ash, with a single pokemon of Ash’s choosing. This week, I will do the same for you. Did you know there are Choose wisely and quickly… I only have one of each. ***** The Task: This week, you are going to pick a pokemon and write a story about it. Pretty simple, I’d say; however, there are a few rules: 1. You must post your Pokemuse when you sign up for the week. Posting a small picture would also be nice See, I want to know which Pokemon you are picking because I want to fantasize all week about how disappointed I will be on Sunday evening, once you've squandered the potential of your glorious monster. I will be happy to assign you a Pokemon if desired, and failure to select a pokemon at the time of signup means that I get to pick for you. 2. You may trade pokemon with another domer if you change your mind on your monster. Trading is half the fun. 3. I may assign you a flashrule depending on the pokemon you select. Some pokemon have a special sentimentality to me, and as such, these pokemon come with special requirements. Think of them as a pokelandmine. 4. YOU ARE NOT WRITING ABOUT ACTUAL POKEMON, YOU CHUCKLEFUCKS. If you write about pokemon being real, or fantastic creatures that may be similar to pokemon, or include any references to the pokemon universe, I will automatically DQ/DM/Fail you. DO NOT TEST ME ON THIS. (But WLOTM, thats confusing> Don’t be so literal. Also, use this website: http://pokemondb.net/pokedex/all Look at each pokemon; look at what it loving looks like. It is your muse. Look at the color scheme. Look at its type, weaknesses, strengths, move list, abilities, and, most importantly, its Pokedex entries. There is some hosed up poo poo in those Pokedex entries. Basically, you are welcome to be inspired by the pokemon in any way, so long as you aren’t actually writing about pokemon. Please don’t gently caress it up. Wordcount: 1250 Signups Close: Friday, August 14th, at 11:59PM PST Submissions Due: Sunday, August 16th, at 11:59 PST Gym Leaders 1. WeLandedOnTheMoon! and Obliterati 2. Flesnolk 3. Broenheim Pokemon Trainers 1) Djeser- Tropicus 2) Grizzled Patriarch- Slowbro 3) Entenzahn- Dunsparce 4) tentacleDate- Wobbuffet 5) Thranguy- Dugtrio 6) sebmojo- Machoke (One character must be a bodybuilder) 7) Ironic Twist- Zapdos 8) Screaming Idiot- Garbodor (Protag must be an endearing nerd) 9) kurona_bright- Wigglytuff 10) Sitting Here- Mudkip 11) Mons Hubris- Skunktank 12) C7ty1- Musharna 13) Swarm- Sudowoodo 14) Devorum- Drowzee (your character's indecisiveness forces him to deal with an unfortunate circumstance) 15) TheAnomaly- Snorlax 16) spectres of autism- Haunter 17) PoshAlligator- Probopass (your story must include rad facial hair) 18) Nethilia- Ninetails 19) Jonked- Cacturne 20) Meinberg- Sableeye 21) Tyrannosaurus- Magikarp 22) Benny Profane- Kangaskhan 23) Bompacho- Shiftry 24) J.A.B.C.- Skarmory 25) Killer-of-Lawyers- Doduo 26) Kaishai- Octillery a new study bible! fucked around with this message at 01:35 on Aug 17, 2015 |

As the Professor Oak of the judges, you can ask me for the pokemans, and I'll give you one. if you aren't a big nerd like me, here's your chance to get a good old pocket monster! You could get this high quality pokemon: Or even this classic 'mon (that's what we call pokemon in the competitive pokemon scene): flerp fucked around with this message at 01:04 on Aug 12, 2015 |
