Has it every been tried before? It'd be interesting to form a story between all of us. I'm not starting it because I want to hear opinions first, but my idea is , for example, some one starting a paragraph, and ending it when he considers it necessary.
So... opinions?
i'm all for it......but i dont want to start either
Quote from: El Duderinoi'm all for it......but i dont want to start either
I'm not saying I won't start it, I just want to see (lots of) opinions , sugestions and if there's greenlight, we could build the skeleton of the story , work on it, take out stuff . Sort of like a Wikipedia.
Don't waste your time. It's been tried several times before and som jerk will post on it saying "The End" early on.
They'll kill it and it will ruin your day.
Best of luck, though.

how's that for ruining a thread? have i ruined your day now?
go away and sob now.
I'll do it if it's a well thought out plan.
But I can't promise a lot of dedication.

The only thing I'll ask for is seriousness. Without wanting to sound hostile, if you don't want to commit , just ignore this.

Well, start shooting ideas!!
I'd like to participate, if this happens.
I could also make sure nobody kills the thread prematurely.
we need to limit the number of characters, otherwise it will get confusing.
if you're going to kill a character, you have to give a very good explanation that has to be accepted by the others.
Quote from: rustinglassif you're going to kill a character, you have to give a very good explanation that has to be accepted by the others.
Shouldn't it be a spontaneous thing, though? Where would there be room for conferring or explanation?
How about a rule that says if you kill a character you have to make a new one?

fair enough. it would also be nice if we got into debates on specific moments of the story; if something isn't working or doesn't feels right, we could join the chat and discuss it for a while.
i sincerely hope this won't die yet.
oh, and another thing we have to put a limit on is the number of people involved. so, JB's in, Rusting, Duderino, and me so far.
i'd like to try. I've never tried writing fiction before, well some short scripts, but not much.

How would you handle things like people potentially posting at the same time? Would there be a set order in which for people to go?
Quote from: OnomatopitaHow would you handle things like people potentially posting at the same time? Would there be a set order in which for people to go?
Hmm, I doubt that'll ever happen but if it does, the two people that posted could decide which story should be chosen or if they want to make an amalgam of both. Terrible suggestion....
..
I think a deadline would work better. We can schedule things , to avoid that.
when do we start?
i'll have some stuff for tomorrow.
I'm all for trying. The semester's almost over, so I's needs something to do.
i would like to join
:waving: ...i'm in..
but on these conditions..
1. someoen has to proofread for spelling errors in my posts..
2. don't mind excessive use of elipsis'...
Me too! Muahahahahahahahah... Beware of sappy romance subplots :twisted:
I may or may not join in.
Well, I guess this thread is the organizer.
I'm all for helping.
Earlier I was just warning you of jerk-offs who'd ruin it, but for some reason, people give a damn now.
walrus' freak out is unwarranted. as is his current hostility.
none of the other members here think it would fail, the only reason it might hav failed in the past is because of "jerk-offs" as u put it, whom are no longer present.
i like the idea but the main condition should be that a single line or sentence is not enuff to add to the story. it's gotta be at least a paragraph and hav a point, not just rambling.
This could be epic.
Quote from: Pubricki like the idea but the main condition should be that a single line or sentence is not enuff to add to the story. it's gotta be at least a paragraph and hav a point, not just rambling.
And to add to this, it must
advance the story.
Also, I hope we're not going to be doing something genre specific the first time around. It should be something fun to start with where people can happily add something a bit surreal but helpful to the story. That's something I would personally like to see the first time around since it would more welcoming for people.
Yes, FUN is the key here... if you try to make it too serious, it's gonna get fucked right out the door. Too many conflicting styles and levels of intelligence.
At least START with something fun.
Quote from: 50 CentiphileAnd to add to this, it must advance the story.
Can't we have a Virginia Woolf-esque moment of detailed introspection?
Quote from: Jeremy BlackmanCan't we have a Virginia Woolf-esque moment of detailed introspection?

But it's more fun to at least advance the story
somehow..
i dont mean to sound like a redneck..but if this thread could be moved to the "Art Gallery" ..it could be the coup de maitre in that forum.....and get some clicks on it.......
Is making a list of participants (you know, so that everyone has a chance but in a certain order) too rule oriented? Then there isn't the hassle of conflicting plotlines.
Quote from: ThrindleIs making a list of participants (you know, so that everyone has a chance but in a certain order) too rule oriented?
yes. but i see what you're saying.
my idea is this:
in the event of a double post, the first one is the chosen one no matter what, and the second one must be edited to end itself. like "and then they all died."
First of all, it's great to see that you people are in this, all of your opinions are basically what's needed for this thing to work/ kick ass. Seems like we're thinking on the same level. And I worked on some stuff:
*At least 10 lines per person.
*Start them with the last person's idea, end them with yours.
*I think that as long as people is commited, we can have as many persons working on this as we want, so , forget what I said about limiting the people involved. Picolas' suggestion about the double posts seems correct.
*Corrections will be encouraged.
*Yep. fun, people.
That's it.
I'll post the beginning in about 4 hours, if everyone's okay with it.
Can't wait.

Yeah, so I just edited my post to agree with brad's. That's cool, right?
But I was thinking that maybe we should make a list of writers, saying who goes next. That way, we wouldn't have to worry about double-posts. And if the next person has no addition to make they could either PM the person behind them or just post "pass". How's that sound?

i think it would work better if the person who'll write the part, just before starting, posted a message that briefly states the he's writing something at the moment, then simply click the edit button and continue the advancing on the story.

This is something I now regret not bringing up earlier when I initially thought of it. But people should always call that they're next in the Art Gallery story thread. Then nobody posts until the new extension has been added. The person who said "I'm next" will type their work and EDIT their "I'm next" post to keep everything clean in the thread without any double posts.
I hope this makes sense with everyone.

yeah.
Quote from: Pubrickuh, or only let them happen when they actually add sumthing to the character and not just begin a whole new story randomly, disregarding all that has gone on before.

I simply thought ranemaka13's last line and action was a perfect end of a chapter/section/location/whatever you want to call it. I thought it was time for a new location. I don't like the idea of calling the previous person's section a flashback or a dream sequence because you didn't like it. It's an insult to that person.
well, let's just apply the same logic and say that i thought ur bit was self-contained and mine was rejoining the character outside the chick's apartment. ppl who want to talk about Creed can continue ur story parallel to the one already established, and if they're good they can connect them somehow.
applying the same logic.

fine, delete my entry. i'm done.
C'mon, everyone knows the P stands for 'Prick.'
You may not have liked the direction, P, but that's the purpose of the excercise--to continue other people's work, not domineer it and make it yours.
what's the problem?
SHAFTR's addition had nothing to do with anything that had gone on before, how was that continuing anyone's work? i even suggested a compromise and he reacted like a baby. jesus christ. it's not that confusing.
and if u want to abandon logic by not understand what i just said, u can't even argue with what i posted in the story thread, it's not different to what anyone else had done. OH WAIT it was different cos i actually tried to create a coherent character and connect it to the story we were telling.

The problem is he inacted a scene change which was completely fine. Then you neglect to carry his story and throw in another scene change immediately all under the ruse of "his contribution not being good enough."
That's lame. And it's lame of you to make that pompous decision.
And it took about a day for the experiment to fail.
Creative group activities are such good ideas...

hav u even read the story?
after JB's "twist", there were TWO
new stories begun in the succeeding posts. how is what i did any different to the trend that was developing? ranemaka started a completely new story because JB did the first flashback to ignore the pitbull incident, and it lead itself to a new story. SHAFTR then ignored Ranemaka's bit and started another one
again. and i havn't even mentioned that ranemaka's ended with the dude touching himself
inside her house! how the FUCK can u pretend that is an ending? if anything it is a set-up for a million things that could go wrong, or right depending on how freaky she is.
seriously, the only thing ruined here is continuity, and there is no way u can pin that on me.
I completely agree that the continuity is all over the place. If you guys want to make it work, try to keep it linear with a couple of character introductions that carry through. Plus, someone needs to have an act structure at the very lease to help the story go in a direction.
I read SHAFTR's entry as transition due to ranemaka's pretty stable ending. What was wrong with taking the story from there? The only way the story is going to work is if people base it pretty much off the last poster instead of creating 30 paragraph exerpts and try to hammer it into something cohesive. And it's not just you, P, making transitions, but you were the first to basically throw someone's contribution back into their face which was rude.
The story is going to take twists that someone doesn't like, but everyone needs to stick with the twists and flesh them out better before throwing in a completely new one.
Please. If you're unhappy with it or you want it to change for better, throw your contribution. :wink:
Quote from: cronopioPlease. If you're unhappy with it or you want it to change for better, throw your contribution. :wink:
I wasn't criticizing. I was trying to critique. From a reader's standpoint the story is hard to grasp so far. I may try to contribute in the future, but with the day I'm having I'd probably end up killing the main character if I wrote something now.

why are u being like this? oh u remembered that u hate me, ok that's cool.
u are constantly contradicting urself with double-standards. why is SHAFTR's thing so damn miraculous that it cannot be attached to mine? or given the same treatment that u granted his handling of Ranemaka's? it's a matter of opinion that i was "rude", i found it incredibly rude that he started a whole new story when it wasn't necessary. but instead of crying like a little girl i changed the story. it's not even like i started a RANDOM fuggin thing like he did, i connected it to what everyone else had no problem talking about. and even THEN to appease him i offered a way to keep his story intact, to start a parallel thread about the apartment complex.
listen, that's all i hav to say about it, if u want to think u "won" this argument based on my "rudeness", whatever. i think ppl can read this themsleves and see that i'm the one being fair, and that u just wanted to chime in with ur "prick" comment.

Where'd you come from, Syd Field?
By the way, creative disagreements are healthy.
Maybe you should abandom COLLECTIVE STORY idea, and change it to a writing "contest". Someone should make guidelines for the story, and everybody will make his story with that. It would be fun to see how the stories will differ, don't you think?
When i say "contest", i mean that the award should be something symbolical.
Quote from: mollyMaybe you should abandom COLLECTIVE STORY idea, and change it to a writing "contest".
No, a collective story is more fun... which reminds me:
Quote from: Earlier in this thread, IIt should be something fun to start with where people can happily add something a bit surreal but helpful to the story.
Quote from: Then RegularKarateYes, FUN is the key here... if you try to make it too serious, it's gonna get fucked right out the door. Too many conflicting styles and levels of intelligence.
At least START with something fun.
But we were ignored.
Sorry P, don't know you, don't hate you. I already explained that I could see SHAFTR's entry working as a transition. So read what I already said or don't.
You didn't just write a different entry, you responded in this thread with distaste for the previous entry:
Quote from: Pubrickuh, or only let them happen when they actually add sumthing to the character and not just begin a whole new story randomly, disregarding all that has gone on before.
yeah.
That's the rude comment I was talking about. But you're right. I had thought up the P = Prick connection
months ago and this just provided the perfect opportunity for me to spring it.
Oh yes, oh yes. I'm so giddy now.

Damn, sniffed me out. And I agree creative disagreements are healthy. I was just trying to add my two cense about the story thus far. I apologize if it read as anything other than that. I'm just trying to apply my English major to some use.
I think the arguments that have broken out over this already are a shame, and that's probably why I stayed out of participating up to this point.
I've seen this kind of endeavor on other sites, and it's never really successful unless there is a SOLID sense of organization and planning. So if you want my advice, and are serious about doing this, I'd say step back, take a deep breath, and let crono try to get things together a bit better (it was his idea). I say you go in a very certain rotational order, or at least try to stick to one post per hour, or maybe a the little "dibs" thing Cinephile mentioned. Not that you need a whole forum for this, but it might help if both threads you were working in were in the same forum.
Bottom line is, you put the cart before the horse, and that's why all the chaos. Stop. Fix that. You'll be fine. Just a few thoughts. Carry on.

Thanks , O. It's true, if we want to avoid mistakes like those, we need better organisation. What I propose is this:
*If it's evident that the mayority disagrees with a Post, the post will be deleted.
*Don't continue the story if you don't feel you can advance the story , fix it, or improve it. The ideal situation would be to post if you feel inspired.
*Finish your post with a hook, so that the other person can interpret your last idea . Instead of just posting something conflict-free.
Quote*Suggestions will be encouraged.
So what if SHAFTR's addition didn't fit a certain mold!? I must say that I enjoyed his writing style, and I liked that he was adding depth to our main character.
The main thing here is just to try and advance the story. So far (thus, my lack of contribution) the tone has that "tug of war" feel to it, where people who don't like one thing, make it a dream, and move on. Let's develope the characters... get a little plot happening here.
And if anyone wants to slam me for being critical. Go right ahead. These are just observations from an outside viewer.

Quote from: Thrindleget a little plot happening here.
I think the problem is that there's one too many plots trying to go on at the same time? But, this sort of thing should've been expected when we started. I mean, no two people will usually see the same story enough to continue it in a perfectly coherent and normal fashion.
Besides, this is our first go-round (as far as I know), so it's not supposed to be perfect.

Seriously though, the group story idea was awesome... and I really don't think we should give up just yet. Anyone feel like round 2???
Now that we understand a few of the flaws we can build on it... so whaddaya say?
I'd love to , but I won't be able today.

I've been wanting to start a new story.
Let's do a round 2, then, if that's what people want.

I nominate Mac as the new story starter.
(no offense to Crono... But it will give it a different flavour)

The novelty of Jimmy Ray lasted longer than this.
