I wish I could enter this round but I'm actually traveling this weekend (Malaysia has Covid-19 under control it seems, so driving interstate is fine). Nevertheless, thank you, Thunderdome. You're the best sub-community of Something Awful I have joined. I met people here I'm glad to call comrades and hopefully lifelong friends. Some of your good words brighten my day and I reread stories in the archive. Some of your horrible words brighten my day too, I just don't admit it. But usually they make me mad, lol. I owe a TON of crits, but work and personal life makes it very hard to commit. Thunderdome made me remember when I was in high school writing really bad writing. I was in loving Elfwood, lol, that's a revelation to some of you who weren't on IRC in the early years of TD. I was one of the first writers in Wyvern's Library before that whole site went crashing down from the owner's ego and some really vigorous "fiction moderating" (I don't even want to go into that haha). But sorry that's a tangent. Thunderdome made me remember when I write for fun, and part of that joy comes from the joy of improving and looking at my own bad words and thinking, "wow these words are bad but they are less bad than my previous bad words, and my current bad words can be improved by fixing the quality of bad to those words." And the joy of looking at other people improving. Love it. Thunderdome got me published. My first published piece was something I wrote with a bunch of domers helping me with the first draft, because I was in some other online writing community (that's dead, lmao) and I HATED their bad, bad, bad words. Someone there noticed and I got in a local magazine, then I got in books, on a radio play, online, and I'm hoping to get in more as time goes by. I've said before sometimes I feel like I'm not hardcore enough a writer, because I'm not like "I must write!" or "I must do this to eat!" or "I must do this for the art!". I just like to think of weird poo poo and write them out and see whether people like the dumb weird poo poo I come up with. I'm told this is a dumb thought to have and it's so good being in a group of writers who are like, do what you like, man. Also, when I was told to join Thunderdome the first time, it was Stuporstar who came to me and say, yo stop writing those fiction posts in PYF because the people there don't deserve you. Thanks Stuporstar. Thanks the main crew keeping this all together - thanks Sitting Here, thanks Kaishai, thanks Crabrock, thanks sebmojo, thanks muffin (the only goon I've ever met other than), thanks DocKloc (the only other goon I've ever met), thanks all of you, there are too many of you to name, but thanks. Thanks. Thanks.* *That's one of my signature, the 3-time repeat stanza** ** That's my second signature, writing too much that the effect is lost. lol! Thanks.

THUNDERDOME 422: HELLGATE JUDGMENT COMMENCES Judges had some conflicts in who should win/hm but because I'm the chief judge I decide, haha, sorry nerds. IT IS DECREED AS SUCH: Reincarnation (Win): a friendly penguin, Safeguard - This story definitely read like you did your research into the cultural fear of the penanggalan, the isolation of the main character is a well-tread horror trope but done well here. Story was engrossing enough, you were just this close to me hating it because of the line "The penanggalan that Suria feared had come and it was Suria herself" because it's so unnecessary when the rest of the last couple of passages already communicated this. Also wondering if someone would hallucinate like crazy when they are giving birth surrounded by vats of vinegar, just that overpowering smell of blood and fermentation lol Purgatory (HM): Simply Simon, derp, magic cactus - k i will do crits on these later Limbo (DM): Thranguy, Unreleased - ok yeah this was a tough one because i genuinely enjoyed your prose, the story was competently done, but then there was that whole element of creepy old dude being horny on main for an obviously kid-sized ghost which I actually asked around, does this add anything to the story? and they didn't think so. Also the pocong does not come from a war-torn middle eastern country so this raised some eyebrows for me. Hell (Lose): GrandmaParty, The Logistics Of It All - Both judges agree this story was a bit of a mess that reads like a first draft with typos and forgotten name changes, also the story wasn't that great and the emergence of the Tiyanak as a horrific vampire almost came out of nowhere, notwithstanding the exposition of the protagonist explaining how he found a child in a field. I did have a laugh when he came in in the first para with a new child, like he just bought a really delicious aubergine from the store, nbd. Torture (Failure): LiterallyATomato - I gave you the crazyass ghost flying about the rice baskets tied to its arms just loving lmao how dumb is this ghost, and you failed to write something, wtf
