Nexros Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 CoX themed Story competition, hosted by the Order of Thorns! 1st place is 80 MILLION 👍 We're running this competition a little differently this time. We're going to allow everyone to see the other entries before being judged. Please be respectful of the other contestants or risk attracting the wrath of Nex 😱 Rules: 1. One entry per person (not per character, not per account...) Please play fair 2. Must fit in the in-game bio section. 3. It must include your character's name and account handle. These do not count toward you character limit. 4. Competition ends October 14th. How to enter: Join the Order discord and paste your story into the #story-competition channel. https://discord.gg/JXvxz2K You will only be able to post in the channel once every 6 hours. But you may edit your post any number of times you'd like until the competition closes. Past Competitions: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostbiter Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Is this only for people on Excelsior?

Clave Dark 5 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 This is probably going to sound a bit tetchy - "how dare you set conditions on offering me 80 million inf!" - but why Discord? I went there a few times when it was the big source of info on Homecoming, but I never took a shine to the layout, etc. Why not post them here? 1 1 ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Clave's Sure-Fire Secrets to Enjoying City Of Heroes Ignore those farming chores, skip your market homework, play any power sets that you want, and ignore anyone who says otherwise.

I went there a few times when it was the big source of info on Homecoming, but I never took a shine to the layout, etc. Why not post them here? My apologies! In the past few years Discord has become a sort of one-stop-shop for gaming communication almost universally. I made the assumption that most users would already be familiar with and have an account on discord. There's nothing wrong with posting here on the forums, but I was hoping to encourage more live communication about the entries in the general channel (#general) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clave Dark 5 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 No need to apologize, you're allowed to do things your preferred way of course. 🙂 If I can get some time this weekend (and can tear myself away from ToT leagues), I'll look into it my account and upload something there, thanks. ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Clave's Sure-Fire Secrets to Enjoying City Of Heroes Ignore those farming chores, skip your market homework, play any power sets that you want, and ignore anyone who says otherwise.

Nexros Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 Well! I'm very sad to announce that this contest is cancelled. We've had a total of 4 contestants. During our first competition we had over 50 submissions within 1 week. I'm not sure if the servers population has declined or if this kind of event is simply no longer interesting, but it's pretty clear that this will be our last backstory competition. Thanks for those that participated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaVileTerror Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I think allowing entries to be posted in the forums, through private messages, or even email would probably have garnered more interest. I know I didn't send an entry when I saw the discord requirement, at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamerKate Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I also would have jumped at it but I dont have discord (dont even know what it is tbh, but I dont need another channel for communication and discussion and whatnot) so I just assumed I was excluded..
