What's up you bastards. You may remember me from such classics as Dog Police and Black Jesus. Today, right now, I'm sitting in an English class room preparing to teach a poo poo ton of freshman to magic of Thunderdoming in the ~real world~ So I'm coming to you I'll be posting a link once their submissions start rolling in. All I ask is that you remember that these are kids. The goal is make them want to write more, not crush their hopes. So this is the only time I'll ask this and mean it. Please be gentle.

Exmond posted:I'm in, are we dealing with College students, high-school students or preschoolers? High school freshmen. Thanks for the pledges so far. Many of these kids seems really excited and a few have already written a few paragraphs after I finished my presentation! Also this is an open invitation. It's good practice with crits of you haven't done many up till this point. Please help! There's around 60 kids and I need all the help I can get.

Mrenda posted:Maybe there should be an assignment of who crits which stories. Sixty is a lot and if people pick randomly there might be doubling up in some cases as well as gaps. Calls dibs if you're gonna crit something? Unless you really have something to say about a story you read. I went and did a crit with the classes of Rural RentBoys. I had to edit the suggestive parts out, but it didn't really add to the story so whatever. Please be PG-13 when critting. I don't want to have to be the crit police (where are you critting from) but if someone is being too harsh I'll be forced to remove the comment.

The teacher and I will do the bulk of the work, making sure at least everyone gets a crit. Again I would recommend putting a temporary message by the story title just to let the rest of know you're going through the story. Ideally I would like to see at least three crits per story. I would go through and give a more thorough crit to those stories that are lacking responses. The class today was successful I think. I had two students come up and ask me what I thought about their writing and I was grateful it wasn't super awful. Many of the students were really excited about it and they had already started writing and collaborating. Mercedes fucked around with this message at 20:12 on Apr 9, 2018 |

THE TIME IS NOW MY DOMERS!!! The writer babies have submitted their work, sacrificed their livelihood so that we, Please, go forth and fix these teenagers and mold them into strong enough writers so that they would at the very least avoid a DM if they ever decide to join Thunderdome proper. Edit: It has come to my attention that googledocs is not as versatile as I initially thought it would be. It doesn't create two separate links where one can view and the other can comment; so I'm asking you guys to do a liiiitle bit more work. Please copy and paste your story to your own googledoc (if you're doing line by lines) or just write your crit in another googledoc and put that link next to your sign up. I'll periodically check and add your crits as comments myself. Thank you for your flexibility. Editedit: Please don't be bad and make sure your doc has the proper permissions. Editjesuschristedit: Anyone can edit the main doc. Do that. gently caress. Mercedes fucked around with this message at 16:42 on Apr 16, 2018 |

BeefSupreme posted:Awesome I will definitely crank out a few of these. Question: is there a specific set of criteria you want us looking at? How much focus should I place on mechanics, syntax, etc? Should I focus mostly on style, story structure, things like that? Also, what is the prompt? All answers you need to know are located in the excel file I linked. Here it is again for all you.

Just a quick shout out, we still have loads of stories that need crits! They don't have to be line crits (some of them would be impossible to do since there's so much... wrong with them) Won't you think of the children! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15dBVhmUYnJFhOQwVkTzq2fVwwRhoOSL6sDGl5D5T2hU/edit?usp=sharing

Just One More Hit Word count 1008 Flynn’s dead limbs itched miserably. It usually did whenever he felt the most stressed. Honestly, he was pretty much stressed all the time these days. He finished the prepared statement to the press conference room, as empty as it was. There was an irritated looking reporter and what had to be a sleeping homeless in a chair in the back. “I always said that I could beat any fighter with my hand tied behind my back, and now I’m putting my money where my mouth is.” There was an awkward pause as he looked at the only attendee. He lamely added, “Thank you for your time. I’ll take any questions.” The reporter glared, letting the silence drag. Finally, he shook his head and cleared his throat. “You’re in a wheelchair!” he said, shaking his opened hand in Flynn’s direction as if to say ‘see!’. “You move around by blowing air into that straw there! How the hell do you expect us to take this serious?” Flynn set his jaw. He expected this, but it still stung. “I had my physical and I have my sponsors. I’ll be back on my feet and in fighting shape in no time. I’ll be fit to defend my title.” The reporter muttered, “Of all the of the dumbest bullshit… I need a new job,” but his naturally loud voice still allowed Flynn to hear. The homeless guy shifted in his seat and started to snore. ------ Flynn stared ahead with vacantly with red-rimmed eyes. Frankie, his trainer, paced the empty gym nervously. Gunmetal fingers rubbing the stubble of his jaw. “Sponsors get mighty skittish when there’s negative press involved, Flynn. You knew this was gonna be a long shot, but now…” Frankie trailed off, stopping to think. There was a heavy pause while Flynn’s eyes came back into focus. “We’ll just go to Jimmy’s. We can get a loan. You know we go way-” “Let me boil it down to the simplest of terms. No sponsors, no neural links, no fight.” Frankie, squat as he was wide, towered angrily over Flynn with his metal arm folded across his chest. “And if you go to that loving Limb Shark… you and me - we’re done.” Flynn swallowed a lump in his throat. He then licked his lips, mentally preparing himself for this fight. “I need this, Frankie. Frankie, look at me.” Flynn blinked rapidly, not wanting the tears to roll down his face. Not now. He was done with that weak poo poo. “I said look at me!” The sudden rage got Frankie’s attention. “Ever since-” Flynn pressed his lips into a tight line. He breathed deep, his nostrils flaring and started again. “I need this fight to happen, no matter what. If I have to take another month of all this pity I’m going to off myself. I am so sick- I want to be normal. I want to be seen as normal, and if the price I have to pay is to go see Jimmy, then gently caress it, I’ll do it.” “You don’t know what you’re asking,” Frankie said. “You get what you pay for Flynn. And if you pay that slicer to do neural work, you’re asking to be fried. I can almost guarantee. He cuts too many corners.” “I need to risk it. If just for one fight. After that, I’ll be able to afford to do it right proper.” Flynn set his jaw, the muscles twitching. “If you force me, I’ll do this myself. But I want you in my corner. Hell man, you are my corner!” Frankie, with arms still crossed, drops heavily on to a stool with a scowl on his face. ----- Flynn felt his heart hammering away in his chest. It felt right. Across the ring was Two Hit Tony, glowering at him; bouncing on his toes and working his neck side to side. The crowd. Oh the crowd. Flynn closed his eyes and let that cacophony of noise wash over him. Vibrate through him. He was home again. It felt right. He heard the referee’s voice cutting through the noise, calling him forward. Tony swaggered up as well. Tony’s going to be put into the ground. The bell rang, and the gloves went up. They circled each other, testing the distance, checking the reflexes. Flynn weaved, keeping his head moving; snapped a jab. Quick. Hard. Right through Tony’s weak defenses. Muscle memory still there. Slid past a straight punch. Jab. Jab. Clean hits. Tony looked irritated. Good, keep him on the- Tony dashed up, faster than he had any right to. He jabbed and Flynn moved his head to the side. A feint. Flynn see’s the red of the glove scything through the air. He pulled his arm up to protect the chin. Too slow. A brilliant flash of light and his head snapped to the side. He stumbled forward and clinched Tony, his legs feeling like rubber. The referee separates them. Flynn felt an itch in his arms. Something’s wrong. He brought the gloves up, but his arms are slow to respond. Tony jabs and every hit lands. Flynn can’t move fast enough. Crushing hook to the body. Now to the right. Now to the left. Every hit, Flynn felt his control over his body slipping away. No, this can’t be happening. Flynn counter attacked, but his arm looks like he’s paddling through water. Tony ducked under the swing and the counter hook made Flynn half twirl and drop to the ground. Flynn heard the referee count. This can’t be it. He tried to get up, but his limbs wouldn’t obey. This couldn’t be end. No way. It’s gonna be just like the movies. The referee’ll reach nine and he’ll get up and finish the fight in a dignified manner. Flynn watched the referee wave his hands over him, signalling the end of the fight. As the moments dragged on everything blurred. He blinked and tears streaked down his face. That’s it. That’s the end of the fight. That’s the end of his fight.

Gone to Collections Words 1114 Negative Energy Plane http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wi...ve_Energy_plane “How did you get those scars on your wrists?” Nadia, former Grim Reaper, Soul Collector and servant to Black Satan asked the son of God. Black Jesus pulled from his cigar. The embers flared blood red, illuminated pale faces in the pitch darkness. He reached up and removed the cigar from his mouth, the light ebbing away, plunging everyone back into the starless night. “Oh, these were nothing, really,” he said. He hissed softly, expelling the rest of the cigar smoke. “I got a pretty big scar on my side too. All from hanging around for a day with some Romans.” Black Jesus paused and no one made a sound in the quiet in between. “In the grand scheme of things,” he continued, “I only lost a weekend before I was back on my feet. I got off easy.” Red light bloomed from the embers and Nadia eyes met with Sebastian’s. Not many things unnerved Nadia. She was a denizen of Hell and routinely commanded all sorts of creatures that would turn a man’s bowels to liquid. But she had doubts about him. She’s seen how he interacts with that guitar he’s never without. He argues with it as if they were an old married couple. The way the air shimmers with a cyclone of guitar strings as he fights is astonishing. But it has always bothered her that she had never sensed any demonic or magical power coming from that guitar. This was a broken man, his mind fractured like a struck mirror. A very powerful and unpredictable person. The glow faded. “How about you, Sebastian?” Nadia ventured, her curiosity prevailing against her caution. “You have… a lot of puncture wounds all over your body.” “I always did wonder about that,” Black Jesus said. “Would have been nice to have omnipotence like my dad…” His grumbling was uncharacteristic of him, but given their current circumstances even the most upbeat person would have trouble keeping a smile. Being trapped in Hell would have that effect on people. Sebastian snorted. “Xavier and I had a bit of an argument.” Nadia rose an eyebrow. “Who’s-” “Sorry,” Sebastian quickly added, “My guitar. He wanted to kill hundreds, if not thousands of people. I did not want any part of it. So we wrestled and he might have stabbed me a few times.” Somewhere to Nadia’s right, someone snorted. “A few hundred times maybe,” they said under their breath. There was a long silence after that. Sebastian cleared his throat. “We ended up killing each other and then spent a really long time here. That is, until you guys freed us.” Black Jesus took another pull. Long shadows stretched outward into the gloom. “I have scars,” Nadia said, preempting any forthcoming questions. Everyone was looking at her. “You can’t see them. Not normally.” The embers died out again, the sudden veil of darkness eerily mimicking a confession booth. “It took me a long time to die. At least it felt like it. “My… friend,” she growled the word through clenched teeth. She scoffed. “He’s been dead for centuries and still… John raped me. Then, being the coward that he is, didn’t want his wife to find out so he spread a rumor that I was a witch. The very next morning my neighbors came to me with torches and makeshift weapons. What hurt the most when I was being burned at the stake wasn’t the fire on my skin. I mean, it hurt like a motherfucker - excuse my French, Black Jesus, but it didn’t last for long. Breathing in superheated air does an ugly number in your mouth and nose and lungs. I’ve never felt pain like that before or since. In the end, I died because I suffocated. Fire sucked all the air around me I couldn’t get a breath in.” “That’s so loving metal!” Sebastian said through his guitar. “So how will you show us your scars?” Black Jesus asked. “Take another pull of your cigar and you’ll see.” The embers flared up once again. Black Jesus’ eyebrows shot up. Sebastian flinched. Xavier cursed and made a joke comparing Nadia to beef jerky. Gone were Nadia’s immaculately coiffed hair and porcelain-like skin. Perfectly tailored suit and blouse were gone too, as well as her stiletto shoes. She sat there clutching her knees, completely naked. Her skin was dark and shriveled, like brittle leather. Her hair was short, dirty and growing in patches across her skull. Her eyes were pools of ink with pin pricks of red light staring back. And then within moments, her beautiful features slid into place like a camera iris shuttering close. The embers faded once again, plunging everyone into darkness. “loving metal…” Xavier said, less enthusiastically this time. “You’re basically naked under those fake clothes.” Another awkward pause. Sebastian was good with creating those. “Why’d you defect to us, child?” Black Jesus asked and then answered before Nadia could respond. “I think it’s because in your heart, there is ultimately a good that you nor Black Satan could fully snuff out.” Nadia opened her mouth to interject, but Black Jesus rolled right over her. “You’re gonna explain to me that it was all about self preservation. Things weren’t working out and you had no choice. So you needed to bounce to the good guys because at least we won’t kill you if you mess up.” “That’s-” “Or maybe it’s because of revenge. Black Satan wronged you and you need our help stick him where it counts.” “That’s-” “Or maybe-” “Stop talking!” Nadia puffed out her cheeks in exasperation. “I wanna free all the souls I collected and free them from an eternity of damnation. All of them.” “Why?” Sebastian asked. “Have a sudden change of heart?” “Yes,” Nadia said, matter of factly. “The last signature I obtained, I tricked a seven year old girl into signing her soul away. I was behind in my quota and I became desperate.” “Well,” Black Jesus said, standing up. “This was a long enough break. We’re going back to take care of these souls.” Someone in the darkness groaned petulantly. “We just escaped from there…” That was fifty five years ago. Before inner demons were met and conquered. Before friendships were forged and tested. It didn’t take long for the landscapes of hell to be smudged into one long mental picture. In their memories, the demons and servants to Black Satan devolved into formless shapes of flesh, teeth and nails as the number slain grew into the thousands. With each liberated soul, their determination grew and their names had the power to instill fear. And also, Nadia and Sebastian totally banged.

Memorial interprompt What are you doing here Black Jesus rolled his cigar to the other side of his mouth as his eyes flicked back and forth from the resume to the man. “Flippin impressive,” he grunted. “Thank you sir,” the man responded. The Son of Man crumpled the sheet and and tossed it over his shoulder. “Can you handle a gun?” “No sir.” “Call me sir again, and I’m gonna flick you in the nose.” “Yes ma’am.” Black Jesus threw his head back and roared in laughter. “I don’t need a gun, I can write. I can create.” Black Jesus brushed a tear from his eye, and composed himself. “Create, huh?” he mused, “Like summoning and conjuring?” “More or less.” Black Jesus eyed the man for a moment. He then leaned forward and produced a large calligraphy pen with a flourish like a magician with a bouquet of flowers. “I’ll be the first to admit, your abilities give off a weeaboo vibe, but no doubt it would be useful.” He set the pen down and sighed. The man grabbed the pen and his transformation was instantaneous. Bright purple hair, impossibly coiffed. Eyes large and sparkling, and his jaw sharp and perfect. “Welcome to the team. Did you want to take a new name?” “No, I’m alright,” he said, striking a pose as rays of light shot out from behind him in a very dramatic fashion. “I’ll stick with Andre.”

It's that time of year everyone! It's time to corrupt- err... educate our youth by bringing Thunderdome to the class room. The first outing was a hit. A majority of the students loved letting go and writing a non-academic paper to only have us tear it to shreds- err... critique it for them. So much so that our teacher friend asked for us to make it a yearly thing. Hooray. Yes, so. I hope you all can help out again with critiques, even small critiques are absolutely welcome. Are there any prompt ideas for our victims... yea, victims? Class is on November 5.

Veyesion 1498 spoopy words if only you could find the source of that dripping, everything would be alright I raised my naked wrist to eye level and a watch blinked into existence, overlayed over my arm. I’m right on time. Things were looking up. I’m usually kissing rear end all day long just for a chance of picking up a new client; but this is by far the largest whale I’ve ever hooked and they came to me. Didn’t even have to do a drat thing but go where my assistant told me to go. Movement caught my eye and I watched a strangely familiar woman enter the room holding a tablet in her left hand. I rose to my feet, buttoned my suit in a practiced manner, and proffered my hand. She studied me for a moment, hesitating for a fraction before taking it. “Mr. Murphy, a pleasure to meet you,” she sounded anything but. Her voice was terse. “The pleasure is all mine, Ms…” I trailed off. I know her from somewhere. Tip of my tongue. “Ashton.” I inhaled sharply as the memories flooded in. Oh poo poo. I felt a pang of deep shame, but I tried not to let it show. “Chrissa Ashton? Class of 2083 right? Wow…” I added lamely, “Y-you look great!” I nervously drummed my fingers against the side of my leg. Chrissa’s lips quirked upward in a parody of a smile. A long awkward pause followed. Anger clouded her face and she huffed. She broke eye contact, jabbed at her tablet, and then turned to looked back at me. A pressure pulsed behind my eyes, forcing me to squeeze them shut. The pain left as quickly as it came and I rapidly blinked until she came back into focus. Chrissa looked at me with concern. “You’re alright? The altitude here in Colorado can really mess with visitors, or so I’m told.” She smiled, her demeanor doing a complete one-eighty. “And yes James; Class of 2083, go Polar Bears!” She awkwardly pumped her fist in the air. How endearing. I can hardly believe what a colossal dick I was to her in high school. She ran a finger through her hair, playing with the ends. “You look great as well! Also, you’ve been very successful. I’m impressed.” Well I’ll be damned. Maybe highschool wasn’t a big deal? She was flirting with me. Not that I blame her. I’m James loving Murphy. I exhaled loudly through my nose. “Me? Come on now, I’m small potatoes compared to you. You created Veysion!” I rubbed at the base of my neck where I had the biotech implanted earlier this summer. “The stuff is mind blowing! I never knew you were this smart and talented!” Her smile widened and a blush crept on her cheeks. “Oh, you have no idea,” she said. “Well, enough flattery, you charmer. I brought you here for a reason.” I couldn’t help but stare at her beautiful face. Ugly duckling transformed into a swan indeed. I’m gonna have to see if I can get me some of that after this job’s done. I cleared my throat. “You need my firm to do some consulting for you.” “That’s right,” she said, swiping a finger across her tablet. “I only want to deal with you and only you. I’m certain that won’t be a problem, James?” The pain behind my eyes was back again, but it didn’t hurt as much as the first time. I rubbed at my temple with a finger and shook my head, going for the nonchalant playboy. Nailed it. “Good. I just sent over the contract via email and you can look over it on your own time.” She lifted her head to face me and I saw the briefest flicker on her face, like a video picture tearing where the Vsync is disabled. I creased my eyebrows in confusion. I almost blurted out a question asking what the hell was wrong with her face. “James, are you alright?” Chrissa walked up to me and knelt, looking up into my face wearing a concerned look. She placed a hand on my knee. Warmth spread up my leg and I swear I forgot what I was thinking about. “Hey come on,” she said, pulling me up to my feet. “Follow me to my office. I got something that’ll get you nice and relaxed.” She had a very mischievous grin. Alright girl, I’m picking up what you’re putting down. Today cannot get any better. I let her lead the way. There’s something about a woman wearing a pencil skirt that really does it for me. It’s definitely how it enuciantes the shape of their hips. I was so intent on catching glimpses of her inner thigh as she walked, that I almost missed her secretary walking past. Our eyes met and I winked at her. She smiled, kept walked down the hall and my eyes kept following. Pencil skirts, man. I need to work here. I was going to turn my head to watch where I was walking when I noticed that flicker again. The secretary’s head twitched randomly and her walking uncanningly reminded me of a person with cerebral palsy. I was transfixed. The farther she walked away, the more pronounced her movements became. The blonde abruptly stopped. In an instant her head snapped around to face me with an audible crack that froze my blood. She scuttled backward toward me at a dead sprint. Black weeping holes where her eyes should have been and two pinpricks of red light focused on me. As she gained on us, her mouth stretched open into a gaping abyss. “James?” I screamed, jumping and flailing, feeling as if each of my limbs wanted to go in a different direction. My head whipped around to Chrissa, my eyes wide with terror. Chrissa’ eyebrows were furrowed in confusion. I grabbed her wrist, turned and pointed to at the nightmare coming straight at us, ready to shout at her to run; only to have the word ‘run’ trail off into a pathetic whisper as I stared unbelieving at an empty hallway. “What is going on with you?” Chrissa asked, holding on to my forearm. My heart thundered in my chest and my hands shook uncontrollably. It was so real. I know I saw it. “Come on,” Her voice sounded so far away in comparison to the thunderous rush of blood in my ears, “I need to get you a drink.” I stumbled into her office, rubbing my temples. The adrenaline had me on edge and I fidgeted trying to burn off this excess energy. The headache was back again. “Have a seat, I’ll be right back,” Chryssa said, leaving the way we came. This has to be the weirdest loving day I’ve ever had. As soon as Chrissa left the room, my headache immediately stopped and the office changed into a cramped, squared, and damp room. There was a steady drip drip drip from a large pipe in ceiling. Right in front of me, was a bloated body sprawled on the ground, face up, soaking wet. I saw his face. I couldn’t not not see his face. My stomach fell into a bottomless pit as I recognized who it was. drip drip drip “That was Sam Trenton.” Chrissa’s voice crackled through invisible speakers. “In case I mistook that dumb look on your face for confusion.” I whirled around and I saw her, smiling at me warmly from behind a see through door. I watched her lift that small tablet she’s been fussing with all day and pressed on it with her finger. With a flicker, her warm, smiling visage was replaced with a cold, hard face with a naked hatred plainly written across her features. I unconsciously stepped back from her, almost tripping over the corpse of my friend. “Four years of hell you and that piece of poo poo put me through,” She snarled at me. “And now the roles are reversed. I’ll be kinder to you than you were to me and keep your torture brief.” Chrissa slowly dragged a finger across her tablet and above, the pipe leaked more water. dripdripdrip “Waitwaitwait!” I blurted out. “I’m sorry for the way I acted in highschool! I really am! I was only a teenager Chrissa! If I could take it-” “I would apologize for the previous discomfort you experienced earlier, but I don’t give a poo poo,” Chrissa talked over me, the speaker drowning out my voice. “Creating an entire environment for you is taxing on the optical nerve-” “Let me out you crazy bitch!” I demanded, rushing at the door and desperately throwing my entire weight behind my thick shoulders. Nothing but a painful jolt up my arm for my efforts. Chrissa pursed her lips. “I’m afraid that’s not in the cards for you tonight James.” She swiped and poked at the tablet. dripdripdrip WHOOOOSH

"I'm sorry Dad," I said, "Tomorrow is your first day of seventh grade. You want to read the Berenstain Bears tonight?"

Quick question for Peewee Thunderdome. Is 666 words too low a count for teenagers to make a craft a good horror story

Alright you bah humbugs. Tiny thunderdomers are trickling in with submissions. This year there won't be a lot of submissions because I put up a natural barrier to cull the weak. Rules! If they didn't follow rules they get ignored and get a failing grade. How effective is it you ask?? At the time of this post 11 submissions were made and only 4 went through. https://docs.google.com/document/d/112B8YFigO4g-vH-PcOkt0abhv1LIEBC6-WJxH7Dkvvs/edit?usp=drivesdk That's where you can read submissions. I'll add the prompt to the doc later tonight. I'll also add if a writer requested a flash rule as well. Their deadline us Monday night at 11:59, so give me until then to get it ready for the horde. Like last time, remember these are teenagers from freshman to juniors so let's not critique like we would to each other. If you want to help with a critique, in order not to bog down the document with a poo poo ton of text, please write your critique in a separate doc and add it as a comment to the title of the story. Thanks for your help you loving mongrels.
