I'm writing since a year on a sci-fi story about gamers in a virtual reality, i should finally finish it... and translate it into English.

 

i like the idea, but i think the theme should be closer to gaming or actual games, then a theme or setting.

 

I'd volunteer as a judge too


well that side of things is a tad sketchy ATM I will put more thought and effort into arranging it if/when there is enough interest to make it worth it lol. The common game setting thing came as more of a way of linking it to games without making it a fanfic contest as I thought that would be limiting to a lot of people and eliminate people that don't like the games or never played it.

i agree fan-fiction is the worst kind of writing ever conceived my humankind .

i would suggest a common theme that involves gaming or gamers, you know like we had a life.

a few suggestions:

"the future of gaming"

"the future of the gamer"

"gaming changed my life"

"how i survived the great console war"



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’
