Delays, birthday, and "Insperween".
2 years ago
General
Hayo everyone.
Been a while since I've made an update like this so I'm a bit sorry for that. Life has decided it needs a body of water to boil, and . . .
Gestures roughly to the ocean that's set on fire behind me.
. . . I need some time to move to a new place while everything is going on. I was joking about the burning ocean, not the fact I now have to move do to a number of reasons.
Because of this, all my focus will be on moving and acclamation for the next month, maybe 2. Anything I write in this time is very unlikely to be posted to FA. So if you like my stories, sorry about the inconvenience.
I want to at least do something though, so first I'll mention my birthday is in a month. October 5th. I've seen and heard about a lot of people feeling iffy about writing or drawing other's characters, so call this my consent. I would love to see birthday gifts, but I know and understand it's not reasonable, let alone pheasable for most people. If you can't do anything, please don't feel bad.
The second thing I want to announce is my idea for Halloween, "Insperween". Insperween is a small challenge I'm hosting, where you can make whatever erotic art or story you want, with the catch it must be inspired by an already existing piece of horror in some lewd way. You can't just write about werewolves, but if you know a werewolf story already, you can adapt it for this challenge. Sources can be anything: shows, movies, folk tales, videogames, whatever. If it's been done before, you can do it again for this challenge.
Rules:
You can only submit 1 thing at a time. If you do multiple, only the first will be counted. If you want to make a short comic series, I ask you submit all pages within 24 hours of each other.
If on FA, please use the tag "Insperween" so I can easily look over submissions. If on "Twitter/X", please submit the story or a link to it on the post I will have made about it. If on discord, I will have a channel for "Insperween" posts.
The winner or the art, and the winner of the writing, will each receive the best thing I can currently offer over the interernet:
"An IOU for a free story from me. I will do my best to treat it as a commission from the winner, and will work with them to the best of my abilities to write it. I can't promise I'll do anything, but I can promise I will try to do everything within my comfort zone."
Submission time starts when this post goes up, and ends after Halloween. (May be open for a few hours later, since timezones aren't uniform).
Submissions must also mention their source, as it may not be clear to everyone where the inspiration came from. Anything writen/drawn with A.I. will be disqualified. I don't care if you use it, but I don't want to spend my later time working on something the user didn't put time in working on. A.I. aid will be allowed however, since the person still did genuine work to correct stuff.
Finally, stories or art will be ranked on a few categories as mentioned below. Each category gives between 1-10 points, with each point being worth 2/100, with 100 being a perfect score.
Inspiration:
The name sake of the whole thing, and a sort of bell curve. 1 can be blatant forgery, as much as it can be it's entirely own thing. Reposts get a 5 at best here. 10 is when the piece has clear inspiration but does something special with it as well.
Source material:
While I am ranking this, I plan on being very generous. This part is for the obscurity. Anyone can can make a piece of the new resident evil remake, and I won't give lower than a 5. However, if you're inspired by a poorly known local story, an indi game no one knows, straight to DvD movie, whatever, it gets a 10. The quality of the source doesn't matter, the obscurity does.
Accessibility:
This is a broad point category that covers spelling, visual organization, etc. If I can't understand what's happening because of bad spelling, grammar, visual communication, organization, etc. I will take points away here. Using the wrong "there/their" or organizing text boxes left to right are unlikely to really hurt this. If you can't read the story back or explain what's happening, than this becomes a 1 point concern.
Creativity:
This is a measure of the liberties taken for a story. If you wanted to make a remake of deadspace for this event, you would gain points here for extra pieces that help the story. Such as replacing the necromorphs with a new species with just as much or more lore about them. The less fun things done, the closer to 0. The more added things, the closer to 10.
Loyalty:
Loyalty means how loyal the piece is to the original. If someone wanted to make a picture of a saw inspired trap made to be erotic rather than leathal, the person would gain points if the background matched the same one from the saw trap they are remaking.
Thank you for participating if you choose to do so.
Any questions, comments, or concerns can be shared below and I will do my best to answer.
