Okay here is the time all you readers have your say in what happens in August. Obviously that means writers who also read, including people on this list.
This is going to be kind of a long explanation so hang on with me for a few minutes.
You may challenge one, a few, or all of these writers to write a story that is out of their comfort zone.
This is how it works: Let's say there is a person named oodie shmoodie and she only writes romances about Nick and this mysterious girl called oodie shmoodie. You can say something like this...
A level One challenge: I challenge oodie shmoodie to write a romance revolving around AJ and someone OTHER then oodie shmoodie.
A level Two challenge: I challenge oodie shmoodie to write drama with a little romance, but the romance has to be in the background and not the main plot.
A Level Three challenge: I challenge oodie shmooide to write a sci fi story that has NO romance in it at all. She can't even have a female lead anywhere in the story.
So there are your three different levels of challenge for this one.
A few rules you have to follow as challengers:
1. Once you challenge an author, you cannot challenge them again. Meaning you can come up with as many challenges as you like but they can't all be for the same person.
2. Be realistic and know that the authors are busy. It's one thing to ask to write out of your comfort zone and it's another to write on something you know they really really hate. Keep that in mind.
3. If an author is challenged by more than one person, they can decide which challenge to write. They aren't expected to write ten stories if they are challenged by ten different people.
4. Any author can try any of the stories even if they aren't the ones who were challenged. Obviously if the story is already in your comfort zone you shouldn't bother.
5. Be clear in explaining what you want your author to write. Because if I'm challenged to write a romance but that's all I'm given, the female lead will be dead by the second sentence. That will not be my fault, that will be the challengers fault lol
6. If a writer can get around the technicalities of writing out of their comfort zone and still pull it off, then go for it lol
7. Be aware that if you challenge someone and they come through, your name will be put on a list for another challenge coming soon which you will have to take part in. Whether you are a writer or not! lol (seems fair to me)
8. You can choose a word count but none of these stories should exceed 3,000. Most challenges I find are working best with a smaller word count.
9. You can be specific to a plot or an idea but the author as the right to change it around or not use your total suggestion if they feel it will not fit with their story.
10. I would hope you'd review the story that was written for you. Whether you liked it or not.
NO BANNERS! For any of these stories!
Okay, I'm sure you'll have a ton of questions so feel free to ask away and hopefully i'll be able to help you out.
If not then let the challenging begin! :)

But I wanna make a banner for the one(s) I'm gonna write (if challenged ofcourse)... :(
J/k.. ;D
No questions so far by the way..
-
Sounds good, Mare! Minus the word count limit, but meh LOL.
-
You don't want a limit? Or do you think that's too many words?
-
I would prefer there not be a limit, unless that's part of the challenger's specific guidelines for the story.
-
I think for many of us the word count in general is a big challenge, that's why I usually keep it to a limit because if I didn't people's stories would be 6,000 plus words lol
We tend to be a wordy bunch so I think a word count limit is a good thing.
-
Oh, one other thing. None of the stories should be posted until August, even if you finish it up before August.
-
And another thing lmao
Here are the authors you may challenge. I guess that would be helpful. :P

Aww yay!! Damn you Mare for making me laugh my ass off with your rules, especially this one:
5. Be clear in explaining what you want your author to write. Because if I'm challenged to write a romance but that's all I'm given, the female lead will be dead by the second sentence. That will not be my fault, that will be the challengers fault lol
LMAO!! Okay... I'm sooo ready to be challenged now!! ;D
-
Um... I don't know if this was established, but can the participating authors challenge the other participating authors? LOL.
-
I don't like the word limit lol but other than that it sounds good. I think writing out of our comfort zone is definitely challenge enough lol.
And Reb we can challenge each other, otherwise almost no one could challenge us with that list LOL
-
I challenge Mare to write a romance, where the girl is with leading man (your choices are Brian, Howie, or AJ)
As a side note the girl does NOT:
*die
*fall into a coma
*vanish into thin air
*get kidnapped by aliens
*turn into a groundhog (or any other creature)
*spontaneously combust
*sleep through the entire story
*have anything else happen that could make the girl out of this world forever lol
However, breakups are perfectly acceptable
Plus, the girl must be human.
Knowing Mare this is definitely going to classify as a Level 3.
Is that okay Mare? Or is that too harsh lol.
-
LMFAO!! That's PERFECT Rose (LOL)!! :D Knowing Mare, she's gonna find another twisted way to get rid of the girl, lol. Mare must be cringing reading her challenge, lmao.
**Gosh... I just totally jacked this response up, lmao. First stating the wrong name, and then having typos. Ugh.**
-
*coughs...points to name* Ummm Reb...
That aside lol, I put a lot of thought into that one. But the big rule is she can't die lol.
-
I'm glad you specified that the girl must be human LOL.
-
I'm glad you specified that the girl must be human LOL.
We'd so would have ended up with a groundhog if I didn't lol
-
*coughs...points to name* Ummm Reb...
That aside lol, I put a lot of thought into that one. But the big rule is she can't die lol.
DO'H!! *slaps self* Damn avys are throwing me off, lmao. Sorry Rose!! Haha.
-
DO'H!! *slaps self* Damn avys are throwing me off, lmao. Sorry Rose!! Haha.
lmao this is why I don't judge by avys
-
lmao this is why I don't judge by avys
*begins to baffle* But... I don't... see... what had happened was... the white color of your avys threw me off!! ;D LOL.
Uh... I'm have extreme dyslexic moments, from words to colors, lol.
-
Uh huh...lmao
Let's see, I wanna challenge Julie too...but how...
-
I challenge Julie to write a very violent horror story.
3/5 of the backstreet boys MUST die.
The killer cannot be a Backstreet Boy but must be a celebrity. A human one lol.
There must be at least one graphic death scene
It cannot be a dream
And I believe that about covers it.
-
We'd so would have ended up with a groundhog if I didn't lol
Or a hedgehog; she seems to be into those lately.

-

LMAO you really need to stop invading my head. You've been doing that a lot lately :D
-
Dear Julie,
Please don't kill AJ.
Love,
Reb.
;D
-
Dear Julie,
Please don't kill AJ.
Love,
Reb.
;D
lmao
Maybe I should make a challenge for you
-
lmao
Maybe I should make a challenge for you
LOL you read my mind, Rose!
-
Dear Reb
I challenge you to write a fluffy romance. For examples please see Kelly's (Honey) stories.
You have the same restrictions as Mare.
No...
*Killing the girl
*making her anything but human
*having her taken by aliens
*turning the girl into anything
*having her spontaneous combust
*having the girl in a coma
*having the girl sleep through the entire story
*no having the girl be gone from the world in any way, shape, or form
The leading man cannot be AJ. It must be Kevin, Howie, or Nick.
And while I'm at it, Melz...
I challenge you to write a story that has not one iota of romance whatsoever. No leading females, no kissies, no love angst, nada. Just a story centered around any of the five boys, or all of the five boys.
I'm on a roll lol.
-
Um... I don't know if this was established, but can the participating authors challenge the other participating authors? LOL.
Yup

Excellent lol by the way you are not allowed to edit this post. :)
-
Excellent lol by the way you are not allowed to edit this post. :)
LOL sorry I was having typing issues at the time.
If you find a way around that then I will seriously give you props for creative loopholes lol
-
I'm almost done with the story lol :)
-
I'm scared now lol
-
And hey someone else start challenging! I don't wanna be the only dork doing it lol
-
LOL. I almost want to say sign me up, but the trouble is I either never get started or never finish anything I write. And to top that off, we've been having internet troubles so if, by some miracle, I DO actually complete a story, who knows if I'd even be able to get online to post it?
***If I did sign up, I would have to say no to slash; it's weird enough reading it.
-
^ it's too late to sign up anyway Maggie lol so you're off the hook. You can challenge though.
And Rose, you are my leading lady :) hehe
-
lmfao that's worse than a smiting I'm starting to think.
Oh noes.
*runs and hides*
-
LOL! This seems like fun. I would like the challenge someone, but I'm scared they'll come through and then I'll have to write :o Can't wait to read these!
-
Hey, for anyone trying to challenge me, bring it on! lol
-
Damnit Rose!! I was here, being nice and innocent, and you just HAD TO give me that challenge!! *le sigh* I'll get you good woman... or at least try. :( LOL.
And Steph, you are sooo not suppose to be encouraging this!!
Um... can someone go in depth with this... "fluffy" stuff? I know Kelly has stories as examples, but um... an explanation would be good too. ;D
-
We're talking happily ever after fluffy cute romance.
If We Were A Movie by Kelly would be a great example.
-
Like complete fairy tale, lol. The epitome of a chick flick.
-
Ooooh I can't wait to read this Rebby! lol ;D
-
Me neither, Kelly! LOL
-
*stomps feet and pouts* Kelly and Selly... you gals AREN'T suppose to be encouraging this!! :( LOL.
-
Rose I challenge you to write a slash story!
It has to be at least 1,000 words but since you don't like the word count that shouldn't matter lol :P
One of the people in the couple has to be Brian and then you can pick anyone else. It doesn't even have to be from BSB it can even be a superhero if you'd like lol
I won't give you any more limitations cause I know you aren't a fan of slash. lol
-
Mare, I make no promises as to whether or not this story will actually come to be lol.
But ahh what the hell. May as well try it lol.
-
You can always wait and see if someone else gives you a different challenge. Remember if that happens you get to pick what to write.
-
By the way Mare, you suck! You're lucky I can't challenge you again!
Reb! Challenge Mare to write a slash!
-
LOL! This seems like fun. I would like the challenge someone, but I'm scared they'll come through and then I'll have to write :o Can't wait to read these!
I didn't say you'd have to write. I said you'd have to take part in a challenge.
-
Rose... I completed the challenge. ;D
That was quite easy, if I do say so myself. *holds hand up for Mare to hi five* And I dunno if I can challenge Mare to do that... ;)
-
LOL sorry I was having typing issues at the time.
If you find a way around that then I will seriously give you props for creative loopholes lol
Ooh I wasn't even talking about typos I was talking about your list of demands. I didn't even catch any typos. lol
-
Sel was able to warn me of your challenge (Rose) ahead of time, so I was able to crank it out ASAP. It was pure TORTURE, but thanks for trying. ;) LOL.
-
Rose... I completed the challenge. ;D
That was quite easy, if I do say so myself. *holds hand up for Mare to hi five* And I dunno if I can challenge Mare to do that... ;)
:) lol *high fives you back*
-
By the way Mare, you suck! You're lucky I can't challenge you again!
Reb! Challenge Mare to write a slash!
Hey if you had let me write about groundhogs or hedgehogs... lol
-
THis is a challenge for Kellymouse since I didn't win bingo!
Your challenge is to write a story in which AJ has to die.
It can be as funny, serious or out there as you want but at the end he has to kick the bucket but he can't be killed by any of the other guys. Also AJ can't actually be the lead in the story. It should be told in flashback by one of the other guys.
The story has to be at least 1,500 words long.
-
Okay! My challenge is for BSBSavedmylife ;D
I challenge you to write a story where the leading character is either Nick or Howie. The other guys can be in the story too... but one of those two have to be the lead.
The rules
-- The story can be any genre other than romance... there can be no romance involved. The story has to be as completely utterly unromantic as absolutely possible.
-- There can be no female character in the story at all (even as a background character)

-
^ Yes, I know lol
-
I didn't say you'd have to write. I said you'd have to take part in a challenge.
Ok, I might be able to handle that :)

Rose I just finished your story and I have to say I had a lot of fun writing it so, thanks for the challenge! lol
I'm glad to see all the challenges starting to show up now.
It's hard to write out of your comfort zone but for those of you that aren't crazy about your challenges, remmeber you can always wait to see if someone else challenges you, this way you get to pick which one you want to write.
-
I got another challenge for my buddy Kentuckychickr k! LOL! Here we go!
Write a humor story involving all five guys. Here is the scenerio:

2) You MUST tell the story in all five guys' perspectives. Tell us what they're thinking in the temptation of this lonely sandwich on the tray.
3) One of the guys finally gets to that last sanwich, but not before devising plan to keep it away from the other guys.
4) Must exceed 3,000 words.

SAY WHA???
Lol!
OHHH... this is gonna be SOOO good ;D
-
Guys there is a word count to these challenges. Please read the rules. The stories should not exceed 2,500 words.
-
I want to challenege Rose to do something.... *thinks* I'll get back to you, and it may be even meaner than Mare's slash challenge. lmao
-
Rose I just finished your story and I have to say I had a lot of fun writing it so, thanks for the challenge! lol
I'm glad to see all the challenges starting to show up now.

LMAO why do I have the feeling yours/Reb's stories are really short cause I didn't think I had to do a word limit lol. (which to be fair, I was the first challenger :P lol)
And Dee...why do you wanna be mean to me :( lol
-
Nah Rose... I was just pulling your leg. :P I ain't done with my challenge, didn't even start it yet!! :D But I'm gonna start it in a few, and I'm gonna take a interesting approach with this challenge. ;D
-
Give me a moment PR, and I will certainly think of a challenge for you! ;D
-
This might be too much work on your part, Mare, but is there any way you could keep track of how many challenges each participant has received in the post where you listed everyone who's doing this? That way we'll know who has already been challenged more than once and who is still waiting on a challenge.
-
Because I want to challenge you? lol
Speaking of which:
I challenge Rose to write a story in which the plot is an old cliche. Doesn't matter which cliche, doesn't matter which genre (to an extent). However:
*If you use a leading man, it must be Howie or Kevin, because quite frankly, they need more love.
*If there is a female lead (or female leads) they must be named after members of the forum. And at least one female lead must talk in teenyspeak, if there is only one, then this is applicable to that one.
*You cannot kill, torture, or maim any of the Boys. Especially not: Nick. In fact, you cannot kill, maim, or tortue any character that steps into the fic.
*It is not allowed to be a parody or a dream.
*You must put a twist on the cliche plot, but (and here's the kicker), it cannot be so out of the box. That means:
~no Sci-fi, fantasy, or AU
~No spaceships, aliens, demons, ghosts, Star Wars references, Buffy references, or any other sci-fi/fantasy tv shows you love. None.
~No secret agents. I repeat, no secret agents. NO!
~Nothing that resembles time travel, the Butterfly effect, magic, alternate worlds, alternate existences, etc, etc, etc. If you think of an idea and it seems like something you would come up with in an insomniatic chat with a can of mountain dew in your hand, back away from it slowly.
And that's it. Some ideas I would like to see are: the epic bus crash fic or the girl band fic. But if you have another cliche, please toss it into this challenge. Myabe you can combine more than one cliche into a story. lol
And I don't care about word count, enjoy. ;)

*dances cause I found my loophole*
And yes! No slash for me! lol
Though writing a cliche is gonna kill me lol
-
I support loopholes. lol
I was hoping it would. lol
-
*stomps feet and pouts* NOOOOOOOOOO ASHLEY!! :(
How's this: you can't challenge me UNTIL you post an update for ITNC. ;D
Same goes for Kristal: you CAN'T challenge me UNTIL you post an update... make that TWO updates for Protection.
*glances at Mare* I would get started on Mare, but she's my best friend at the moment. ;)
-
Rose... I gotta think of a good one for you... *whips out a chair for Rose to sit on* Tell me... what genres/kinds of stories do you loathe (besides slash)? *pushes a plate of ooey gooey warm chocolate chip cookies and a tall glass of cold milk towards you; pulls out Nick and brandishes him off* ;D
-
Honestly I only hate slash.
But I found my way around that through Dee. Who I now love lol.
But if I can find a way to write the slash, I'll do it to say I did haha.
-
Though Dee nailed it very well too. I'm not big on cliche. I'm very anti-cliche. I love going outside of the box and she's trapping me in it lol.
-
*stomps feet and pouts* NOOOOOOOOOO ASHLEY!! :(
How's this: you can't challenge me UNTIL you post an update for ITNC. ;D
:o How is THAT fair?!
How about you can't stop me from challenging you until YOU post an update for SP?!
;D
-
You're welcome. I enjoy being evil. lol
-
Alota,
Your challenge is to write a sci-fi story. Other worlds MUST be involved. The story MUST be about Howie and Kevin. No Nick, No AJ, No Brian. The story must take place in the very distant future. Nothing during the 2000's.
The story must be in 3rd person. Omniscent 3rd person POV.
No real people other than Howie and Kevin are allowed to be involved.
The story must include some kind of alien named Bob.
The story must be at least 2000 words.
This can not be a dream.
Have fun! :)
This is purely for the fact I love sci-fi and want more of them lol.
-
Honestly I only hate slash.
But I found my way around that through Dee. Who I now love lol.
But if I can find a way to write the slash, I'll do it to say I did haha.
You're lying! There's gotta be more!! Lol. If Dee has got you "kinda" stumped (even though you found a loophole), and I'm not sure if you're gonna go through with Mare's slash challenge, what the hell could I possibly do to challenge you?!? Lol.
-
:o How is THAT fair?!
How about you can't stop me from challenging you until YOU post an update for SP?!
;D
*le gasp; begins to baffle* You CANNOT do that to me!! But... if that's the case, I'm gonna post an update by tomorrow. :P And as for you... now, I want an update and I'm still gonna challenge you, so there. ;D

I'll admit it, I'm hard to challenge. I've done sci-fi, romance, horror, fantasy, AU, action/adventure, I have plans for a suspense. I have written a visual before.
Mare covered the slash
Dee got me on the cliches (since I never do those if I can help it)
Go ahead, try me lol muahahahaha

Well... um... ugh, damnit! Move over Dee, I'm gonna go along with some cliches too, all of them rolled into one!! ;D Maybe it'll be a cliche/slash/visual story......... . CURSE YOU ROSE!!
-
I don't mind moving over, I was just trying to be a jerk. lol
-
LOL I only have to do one, though if inspired I might do more.
So go ahead, make my day lol.

Dee got me on the cliches (since I never do those if I can help it)
Go ahead, try me lol muahahahaha
I have you beat , I've even got slash under ye old rusted belt
-
That means Julilly is God. ;D
-
I have you beat , I've even got slash under ye old rusted belt
LOL after this challenge I might be able to say that.
Damn I was gonna challenge you into a mushy Kevin story but then I saw your name isn't on the list. Boo.
-
I don't mind moving over, I was just trying to be a jerk. lol
LOL!! Rose deserves it. ;D
LOL I only have to do one, though if inspired I might do more.
So go ahead, make my day lol.
You suck. :( Well... I'll post my ghetto challenge for you anyway! :P
Hey... could two people team up to challenge a person?! Lol.
-
Rose... eye chalinge yew 2 A getto chalinge that yew probably wont dew, muahahahahahah ahahahahahaha!!!!!!!
OkAy... hErE iS yOuR cHaLLeNgE (I remember when I used to type like this back in elementary/middle school, haha!!)
~*~*~*~
Rose... I challenge you to ANOTHER cliched fic, lol.
- The genre will be romance/suspense
- YOU have to be the main character, the leading gal who escaped from physical abuse
- Both Kevin AND Alexander James have to fall in love with you somehow
- You have to establish an affair with Kevin and a secret hookup with AJ, where you will then become pregnant and you don't know who the baby's daddy is.
- You have to establish a fight between Kevin and AJ over you, and a fight between you and Kristin for having an affair with her husband
- A little steamy, slashy thing has to go on between AJ and Kevin
- Nick has to contract 5 cancers somehow
- You finally find true love with Howard somehow, ya'll get married and live happily ever after with your TrainBone twins. :D
- It must contain some grammatical and spelling errors, maybe on Nick's behalf
- It has to be mainly dialogue. If you give discriptions, it has to be brief.
- And your word count will be... 1,501. ;D
-
And Mare... I think the participating authors should do all the challenges thrown at them, unless it exceeds... 5, then they have an option. :)
-
LMFAO Reb, I love your Rose challenge!
-
LMAO that challenge made me twitch Reb
I might actually try that one, cause I have an idea
-
Yes lmao I have an idea that can make that challenge work. *dances some more*
Bring it on people!
-
I like that you have to do every challenge you get if you can. lol Like if you finish one before the end of August, you can get another one.
-
Says the people who have like one challenge :P
I'm busy here people lol
-
Julie: LOL!! ;D I was "carefully" mapping out the challenge for her, until she said and I remembered that she wasn't obligated to do all the challenges thrown at her, so I decided to make it like whatever cause I actually didn't think she'd accept, lmao.
Rose: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU DON'T HAVE AN IDEA!!! I knew I should've shortened the word count, but I decided to be NICE! At first I wanted to give you a bunch of requirements and give you an extremely short word count. :)
-
I got one for Kelly (Honey Kelly lol)
Admittedly you've done so many genres, and you've done them quite well. As a result your challenge stumped me lol.
But I've got it.
I challenge you to write a story in 2nd person. (You're walking down a darkened hallway, the lights dim as they flicker sporadically. Turning your head you glance about when a loud crashing could be heard before shrugging it off as the horrible weather outside. ...etc. for example. like what's used in those old choose your own adventure books) The "you" is one of the boys, and interacts with the others somehow.
No other limits cause 2nd person is tough. Fun, creative, but tough.
I just like making people test their writing limits. I'm having a ball LOL
-
This challenge is for FrickFrackGirl . It's more of an entertaining one than a challenging one, but genre-wise, it is something different for you. Hope you enjoy, Jen!
I call this the LD Fanfic Challenge LOL.
The genre is comedy/suspense.
- Your story centers around a LiveDaily fan convention, which many of the LD regulars will attend.
- Unbeknownst to them, Nick gets wind of this convention and also decides to attend, incognito. Nick will need a disguise, which you must describe.
- You must include encounters with at least three real LD regulars who are not Nickaholics.
- At least one act of violence takes place at the convention.
- During the convention, Nick finds himself drawn into a situation that would be deemed suspenseful, mysterious, or horrific - something along those lines. This situation may or may not be connected to the act of violence mentioned above.
- Someone at the convention dies.
- There is to be no sex and no romance.
EDIT: I changed the word "conference" to "convention," cause that's the word I was looking for LOL. I didn't edit any of the guidelines.
-
Julie: LOL!! ;D I was "carefully" mapping out the challenge for her, until she said and I remembered that she wasn't obligated to do all the challenges thrown at her, so I decided to make it like whatever cause I actually didn't think she'd accept, lmao.
Rose: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU DON'T HAVE AN IDEA!!! I knew I should've shortened the word count, but I decided to be NICE! At first I wanted to give you a bunch of requirements and give you an extremely short word count. :)
You left out a couple limits I noticed. So I took full advantage.
-
*le gasp; begins to baffle* You CANNOT do that to me!! But... if that's the case, I'm gonna post an update by tomorrow. :P And as for you... now, I want an update and I'm still gonna challenge you, so there. ;D
I'll believe that you are going to post an update for SP tomorrow when I see it! So :P
-
Julie: Haha, I LOVE your challenge for Jen!! LMAO!!
Rose: Damnit, I didn't really think you'd accept, which is why I wasn't being mean and putting all these limitations!! Lol. Don't accept the challenge damnit, lol.
Ash: Alright... challenge me. :( LOL. I'll get you woman... and your little dog too!! :P
I've got some studying of authors to do!! ;D
-
Julie: Haha, I LOVE your challenge for Jen!! LMAO!!
Rose: Damnit, I didn't really think you'd accept, which is why I wasn't being mean and putting all these limitations!! Lol. Don't accept the challenge damnit, lol.
Ash: Alright... challenge me. :( LOL. I'll get you woman... and your little dog too!! :P
I've got some studying of authors to do!! ;D
Actually I have a very cute idea for it. Ironically yours might be done first lol
And I just got an idea for Mare's lmao.
-
Julie: Haha, I LOVE your challenge for Jen!! LMAO!!
I hope she accepts; I'm looking forward to reading it! LOL
-
Julie, you are gonna get me in sooooooooooooo much trouble if someone on there reads this! I had so many ideas already swirling in my mind. I'm deff gonna make some enemies with this one. But yes, I do accept the challenge..par tly cuz Reb here wants me to write a suspense fic anyway, lol! And I have all the month of August to write this, correct?
-

If you want, you don't have to name the regulars by their real names or real usernames... you can play with the names, change them a little, just as long as we know who they're supposed to be. (Kinda like what I did in BMS.) I dunno if that helps or not, but if it does, go for it LOL.
-
And yes, you have the rest of July and all of August.
-
Ash: Alright... challenge me. :( LOL. I'll get you woman... and your little dog too!! :P
You shouldn't have said that because now I challenge you to crank out an update of SP by tomorrow.
And you think you scare me by threatening to get my dog? It's not December yet, so I don't have a dog! :P Empty threats I tell ya...
-
Good, cuz I have the feeling some ppl will hunt me down, lmao!! And good also cuz I have a whole week in August I won't be able to write cuz of concerts!!! Is there any word restrictions or can it be as long as I need?
Leave it to you to give me an LD challenge...I really am addicted to that site aren't I?? lmao!!
-
Good, cuz I have the feeling some ppl will hunt me down, lmao!! And good also cuz I have a whole week in August I won't be able to write cuz of concerts!!! Is there any word restrictions or can it be as long as I need?
Well, Mare specified that all the challenges have to be no more than 2500 words. I veto that, but I can't change it, so that's your limit.
-
Dee, I now have a challenge for you!
I challenge you to write a visual, one between Nick and another member of the board EXCEPT me. (learned my lesson from Mare lmao). The visual must have at least 1,069 words. Also it must involve a tuna can.
-
Man that's gonna be hard to do under 2500 words...but I'll get there as close as I can...I think I'm a bit like Reb...I likes to bend da rules a bit...lmao!!
-
LOL I know... sorry!
-
Dee, I now have a challenge for you!
I challenge you to write a visual, one between Nick and another member of the board EXCEPT me. (learned my lesson from Mare lmao). The visual must have at least 1,069 words. Also it must involve a tuna can.
I volunteer to be that member!! lmao...I keed...unless you really want to!
And the tuna can made me bust a gut!!!
-
Rose: No, I take the challenge back. I don't like the fact that you have an idea for it AND you'll probably being working on it before Dee's challenge. :( Lol. And I LOVE your challenge for Dee, LMAO!!
Jen: Haha, yes I do hope you'll accept. And I want you to do a straight up suspense story woman! Lol.
Ash: Well then... I challenge you to STOP reading SP, thus meaning I won't need to post an update :P Besides, that doesn't count as a challenge, MUAHAHAHAHAHAH AHA!!!
-
Jen: Haha! Welcome to the dark side of being a rule breaker. ;D *hands you a cookie*
-
Jen: Haha! Welcome to the dark side of being a rule breaker. ;D *hands you a cookie*
Like mother like daughter!!! lmao!! :D
-
Ash: Well then... I challenge you to STOP reading SP, thus meaning I won't need to post an update :P Besides, that doesn't count as a challenge, MUAHAHAHAHAHAH AHA!!!
I refuse to accept your challenge to stop reading SP! >:(
-
Alota,
Your challenge is to write a sci-fi story. Other worlds MUST be involved. The story MUST be about Howie and Kevin. No Nick, No AJ, No Brian. The story must take place in the very distant future. Nothing during the 2000's.
The story must be in 3rd person. Omniscent 3rd person POV.
No real people other than Howie and Kevin are allowed to be involved.
The story must include some kind of alien named Bob.
The story must be at least 2000 words.
This can not be a dream.
Have fun! :)
This is purely for the fact I love sci-fi and want more of them lol.
well alright then! I am shocked to have recieved a challenge so quickly! But, I couldn't help but think of Star Trek when I read this! lmao. I, personally, LOVE aliens named Bob, by the way...how did you know that? Anywho...I'm excited!
-
I want soooo badly to challenge Reb to a romance/slash/visual story!!
-
Jen: *squee* ;D Lol.
Ash: MUAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHA!! I'm evil, aren't I? And don't even make me start with Sharky here! :P
-
Jen: *le gasp* You wouldn't dare!! :o
-
^ I bet she would dare and I think she should! *stands by Jen*
-
I got one for Kelly (Honey Kelly lol)
Admittedly you've done so many genres, and you've done them quite well. As a result your challenge stumped me lol.
But I've got it.
I challenge you to write a story in 2nd person. (You're walking down a darkened hallway, the lights dim as they flicker sporadically.

No other limits cause 2nd person is tough. Fun, creative, but tough.
I just like making people test their writing limits. I'm having a ball LOL
Wow. I'm honestly surprised. You really have me stumped. Here I was thinking I was safe cause I've tried just about everything. (I've never done a vizzie, but I think that's about it.)
But I've definitely never written in second person before. I have written a screenplay which is similar, so maybe I'll have to think about it kind of like that. Rad challenge Rose, I'm kind of diggin' it.
-
If I can get, ummmmm..say 3 more ppl to agree I will write up a challenge for Reb in that...mmmmm.. .genre...
-
Rose: No, I take the challenge back. I don't like the fact that you have an idea for it AND you'll probably being working on it before Dee's challenge. :( Lol. And I LOVE your challenge for Dee, LMAO!!
Too late :P I wanna do all 3 at this point. I have ideas.

I knew you were thinking that. Hell I was too. 2nd person I've only done a couple times and it's fun, once you get into it. Just a bit difficult. I can't wait to see what you do with it though.
Oh and Jen, challenge Reb
-
You gals are pure EVIL!!!!!!
-
But ya love us! ;D :-*
-
hehehe...sowee Reb...but there's nothing else I wanna see you write!! You might surprise yourself! You...you...yo u Backstreet Whore you!!!
Ok...THAT sooooooo gave me an idea!!!!!!!
-
Ash: I'm really having second thoughts here, lol.
Jen: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOO!! I don't wanna be a Backstreet Whore anymore!! :'(
-
Sorry I haven't been on the board in over a week or two because of stuff going on. But yay I got a challenge LOL And reading most of yours on here I'd say that I might be pretty lucky since I'm pretty open.
And Dee I will be your Nick vizzy girl with the tuna LOL Sounds kinky... ;D
-
^ Well, then I will be having second thoughts until you crank out an SP update.
Geez, maybe I just need to write my own paranormal fic. >:(
And don't lie to Jen. You'll forever be a Backstreet Whore and you love that. :P
-

Yep, I've been challenge crazy lately.
-
LMAO why do I have the feeling yours/Reb's stories are really short cause I didn't think I had to do a word limit lol. (which to be fair, I was the first challenger :P lol)
And Dee...why do you wanna be mean to me :( lol
LOL that was a nice loop hole you left there but mine is about 1.500 words or so. The idea flowed like buttah.
-
so, Rebby....are you ready for me to challenge you?
-
This might be too much work on your part, Mare, but is there any way you could keep track of how many challenges each participant has received in the post where you listed everyone who's doing this? That way we'll know who has already been challenged more than once and who is still waiting on a challenge.
See, this is where the Julilly side of my brain says something like, you guys should be able to keep track of that stuff yourself lol but the me side will bold the people who have already ben challenged. lol
Remember though, you can challenge a person more than once. If you do that they get to pick which one they want to write or can choose to write them all if they want.
-
^ Well, then I will be having second thoughts until you crank out an SP update.
Geez, maybe I just need to write my own paranormal fic. >:(
And don't lie to Jen. You'll forever be a Backstreet Whore and you love that. :P
Weeeeeeeeeell..... ;D
-
And I don't care about word count, enjoy. ;)
But I do so keep it under 2,500 words lol
-
Ash: NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! :( Fine... I'll crank out an update AND accept your challenge. :'( Life's not fair. :(
Kristal: BRING IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jen: *shakes head*
I'm scared!! :'(
-
Since you all seem so objected to the word count I consider that part of the main challenge because obviously you find that tough so therefore... if you exceed the word count, than your story doesn't count as being written.
To be fair i'll up it to 3,000 words I guess. :P
-
LOL that was a nice loop hole you left there but mine is about 1.500 words or so. The idea flowed like buttah.
Hey I was the first challenger, I didn't know better lol
And with the word count, it's too short! lol
*holds up a picket sign* I'm protesting!
-
3,000 words is an upgrade I guuuuuess :P
-
Okay I modified my original post to include the names of the people you can be challenged and I blded the ones that have already been challenged. I'm not sure if I missed someone so if I did you need to let me know.
I also changed the word count to 3,000.
-
Yay for it being 3,000 words!! Now that it was upgraded, I say that we're all allowed to make one modification on our challenges.
Rose, your word count is now 234 words!! ;D
-
3,000 words is an upgrade I guuuuuess :P
3,000 words should be plenty for a short story. lol
-
Sometimes 3,000 words can be hard to come by, & sometimes not.
I challenge Mare to write a story about Howie & a kid or two [or five-lol].
Rules
- NO killing the kids off, no causing them any serious harm [comas, car accidents, fatal diseases, etc.]
- Must be a happy ending story, because I love those! :D
- Relation of kids to Howie doesn't matter.
- They must be REAL children! No sci-fi stuff, or anything like that.
And I think that's it. I can't think of anything else at the moment - lol.
~Lenni~
-
^ 3,000 words is the maximum. You can set your own minimums but not after you post your challenge.
-
^ 3,000 words is the maximum. You can set your own minimums but not after you post your challenge.
Yes, I think I gathered that. I stress think - lol. :P
~Lenni~
-
LOL okie dokie :)
-
I'll tell you what, if the National League wins the All Star game, i'll get rid of the maximum word count. But if they lose it stays! lol
-
But I do so keep it under 2,500 words lol
I meant, I don't care so go with Mare's room for maxiumum words. :P
-
lol but Rose could have interpreted that as yay i'll write a 56,000 word story! I was clarifying for her. :P
-
Enjoy my challenge Mare! If you should choose to accept it - lol.
~Lenni~
-
Yay for it being 3,000 words!! Now that it was upgraded, I say that we're all allowed to make one modification on our challenges.
Rose, your word count is now 234 words!! ;D
Nice try, too late lol
-
Lenni... you knew this was coming...
I challenge you to write a suspenseful/cliche fic starring... ME!! LMFAO!!
- You gotta write me (Reb) as the main character
- Brian isn't married to Leighanne in your story, oh no no... he's married to YOU and he ends up leaving you for me (MUAHAHAHAHAHAH AHA)
- Your divorce has to end nastily, haha
- Fluffy-ness MUST be included when it comes to Brian and I getting together, lmao.
- You will have to kill Brian somehow *le gasp* Yes, my new husband will have to die. Doesn't matter how you go about it, you can have me kill him for all I care
- You have to end up with AJ (as in married)
- I have to end up with... Robert Downey Jr (as in married). (hey, a young gal can dream, right?)
- There has to be a showdown between you and I, and Iron Man and AJ.
- During this showdown, one of us will have to die (yes, I'm even putting my life on the line)
- You must end the story with a major cliffhanger, as if you left it open to be continued or whatever.
;D
-
lol but Rose could have interpreted that as yay i'll write a 56,000 word story! I was clarifying for her. :P
LMAO gee thanks.
I'm not THAT wordy.
And no 00Carter does not count lol
-
Enjoy my challenge Mare! If you should choose to accept it - lol.
~Lenni~
Thanks Lenni, we'll see. I already wrote Rose's but if i'm inspired i'll try yours.
-
LMAO gee thanks.
I'm not THAT wordy.
And no 00Carter does not count lol
LOL well i'm going by 00Carter.
-
LOL well i'm going by 00Carter.
There's 8 of us writing it that's why it's so long lol. It's more a series of shorts. :P lol
My normal fics range anywhere from 2200-4000 per chapter
-

;D
LOL Reb, I cannot wait for Lenni to write this... haha! That is great!
-
Okay Rebby! here's your challenge...I made it extra challenging (I hope), just for you!
The genere is mainly ROMANCE.
YOU have to be the main chick in the story...you can use your first name, middle name or a variation/alternate spelling of either.
The story MUST be from your point of view.
Since it is in your point of view, you can't kill yourself off or disappear, and you have to be your human self.
Your main man/ love intrest/ boyfriend is Kevin Richardson.
You MUST be in a loving and serious relationship with Kevin.
There has to be detailed description of how you feel about Kevin...how much you love him and his smile, his eyes/eyebrows, the way he looks at you...you know that kind of stuff.
There MUST be one heavy make out session between you and Kevin, described in detail.
You have decribe the lead up to a sexual encounter with Kevin but you can spare us all the details. Just cover the make out, hands wandering, or clothes shedding...no visual required.
AJ MUST be killed at some point...and YOU have to be the one who does the killing (no you can't be nice about it)!
The killing has to be a brief scene but MUST be graphic (no slipping something in his drink...make it good, like a brutal stabbing or something).
AJ MUST say something cheesy, right before he dies.
You have to explain your reasonings and thoughts behind having to kill AJ.
Nick has to, randomly, come through and trip over your bra.
Kevin has to, randomly, shove chopsticks up his nose at some point.
Howie has to call Kevin for help, because he got his butt stuck in a box.
While all this is happening...yo u MUST keep the romantic story line going! You cannot start out with the romance and then forget about it...you MUST keep the romance between you and Kevin constantly going.
This CAN NOT be a dream!
Your word count MUST be the maximum that Mare set.
Do you hate me yet? Or should I edit? :P
-
roflmao...I just now realized how long that was! I'm sorry Reb. Wait...no I'm not. lol. Just to clarify...the maximum words, as set by Mare is 3,000, thus that is what your story has to be.
-
OoO... I love Kevin, that sexy bastard!! I'll gladly accept your challenge Kristal!! ;D
-
I'm gone for most of the day, and AJ is being killed off left and right. I'm not sure I like this. I have to do some good thinking to put up some challenges.
-
yeah well... :P you still have to kill AJ
-
Ain't no thang but a chicken wang... cause you didn't limit me on something... ;)
-
Lenni... you knew this was coming...
I challenge you to write a suspenseful/cliche fic starring... ME!! LMFAO!!
- You gotta write me (Reb) as the main character
- Brian isn't married to Leighanne in your story, oh no no... he's married to YOU and he ends up leaving you for me (MUAHAHAHAHAHAH AHA)
- Your divorce has to end nastily, haha
- Fluffy-ness MUST be included when it comes to Brian and I getting together, lmao.
- You will have to kill Brian somehow *le gasp* Yes, my new husband will have to die. Doesn't matter how you go about it, you can have me kill him for all I care
- You have to end up with AJ (as in married)
- I have to end up with... Robert Downey Jr (as in married). (hey, a young gal can dream, right?)
- There has to be a showdown between you and I, and Iron Man and AJ.
- During this showdown, one of us will have to die (yes, I'm even putting my life on the line)
- You must end the story with a major cliffhanger, as if you left it open to be continued or whatever.
;D
Oye! So much death! Lol. Iron Man? *raises eyebrows* Gawd, now you got me sitting here trying to remember 'fluff' & suspense - lol.
~Lenni~
-
LOL Reb, I cannot wait for Lenni to write this... haha! That is great!
You may be waiting a while....*scratches head*.....
~Lenni~
-
AHHH, no!! You better do this!! DAMN YOU LENNI!! :P Lol.
-
AHHH, no!! You better do this!! DAMN YOU LENNI!! :P Lol.
I'll figure it out when I'm more awake - lol. I'm, like, half asleep & becoming giddy/giggly. A definite sign I ought to go to bed, though I never listen to it - lol.
~Lenni~ [I totally misspelled my name a moment ago!]
-
See, this is where the Julilly side of my brain says something like, you guys should be able to keep track of that stuff yourself lol but the me side will bold the people who have already ben challenged. lol
Remember though, you can challenge a person more than once. If you do that they get to pick which one they want to write or can choose to write them all if they want.
I know, but I'd rather make sure everyone has been challenged at least once before I give someone their fourth challenge LOL. And with 12+ pages, I'm sure most of us would rather not have to scroll through them all to keep straight who got challenged with what. So thanks for at least bolding those who have been challenged. :)
-
Since you all seem so objected to the word count I consider that part of the main challenge because obviously you find that tough so therefore... if you exceed the word count, than your story doesn't count as being written.
To be fair i'll up it to 3,000 words I guess. :P
Thank you for your generosity... *said only slightly sarcastically* ;)
I don't know for sure because I haven't started on my story yet, but I will probably feel more challenged trying to stay under 3000 words than I will writing the content of the story LOL.
-
lol where as, having to write an entire story in 2nd person, I am kinda liking the less words idea...
-
LOL that's true. But having to write a horror story with three descriptive death scenes? That's tough to do in less than 3000 words!
-
To make everyone's lives easier, i'm going to start a third stickied thread where you should take a minute and tell us who you have been challenged by and copy the challenge into the thread.
You can use this one to chat but let's keep the other one strictly about the challenges. That way it makes it easier to figure out who needs to do what. Kay? Kay. lol
-
I can tell you that a word count of about 1,500 in Microsoft word using the 12 font brings me to about 5 pages. That's with dialogue which I use a lot of in my writing. I'm sure for those of you who don't write a lot of dialogue, it might come closer to three full pages or three and a half.
If it's really that big of a deal with the word count I'll scrap it for those of you who have been challenged. So it's up to you, anyone who has been challenged up to this point, you can A) forget about the word count or as I like to call it... taking the easy way out or B) keep the word count and omit some of the things asked of you in the challenge.
From this point on though, the word count is in effect. Any new challenges have to be kept to 3,000 so be thoughtful when you challenge someone. If you want ten thousand things to happen in a story that should be about 3-5 pages in length, that's not a realistic goal.
The great and powerful Mare has spoken!! lol
-
I'm on a roll baby... BRING ON THEE CHALLENGES!!!
And LMFAO at "The Great & Powerful Mare"!! :D
-
My challenge is for Sinara
Since i'm not really that familiar with your work Sinara, i'm mainly going by your posts and things you said in the for those of you willing to give detailed feedback thread.
I challenge you to write a comedy, centered around either Nick or Howie. This is the hardest part of the challenge. It has to be completely dialogue. No descriptive paragraphs at all.
It can be about anything you want, but we should be able to tell what's going on solely from the dialogue written.
This will be practice for you for an upcoming challenge on the forum lol ;)
-
Jen, my dear... I challenge you to...
Switch Your Fandom.
- You will write a story featuring none other than the greatest band that ever walked the earth, *NSYNC
- The story shall be written in almost like a documentary format, where you will have to cover *NSYNC's accomplishment s as a band, and what they all accomplished individually after they broke up. (this part CANNOT be made up.)
- Wonder why you know so much? Because it shall be written in first person, where YOU (as in Jen, not Jane Doe) are the narrator and you happen to be *NSYNC's biggest fan.
- The year is 2025, and your job as their biggest fan is to get them back together and write a huge comeback for them.
- Write a big, nasty breakup for the Backstreet Boys.
- Justin Timberlake has to kill Nickolas Gene Carter. The way Justin kills Nick has to be brutal and twisted.
- You have to imply a good romance scene between you and Justin Timberlake because YOU are happy that he killed Nickolas Gene Carter
- Nickolas Gene Carter CANNOT mysteriously and magically come back to life. After Justin kills him, he is dead.
- This CANNOT be a dream
- And your word count is 3,000.
-
Doc, I think I'm gonna have to respecfully decline that one...I just couldn't do it...I don't have the heart nor the time to do all that research! lol...
-
Reb, your challenge nauseates me. :P
-
^ I second the feeling, of nausiousness! :P
-
I like the N'SYNC challenge - lol. Prolly 'cause I already know some of the answers to those questions. :D
~Lenni~
-
Doc, I know you already have two challenges but I'm still gonna give you one... ;D
Ok, the year is 2003 and you have just met AJ (Age yourself to where you are a wee bit younger than he). Chronicle your life with him from your first date to his funeral journal style starting the year 2003. There has to be at least 3 very important dates chronicled (ie, wedding, birth of children, ect) and you have to be as mushy, lovey-dovey as you can about how you felt during these "milestones". Somewhere you have to recollect your first meeting. Be very specific how it went and how you felt. Oh, and TRY to stay under the 3,000 word limit, lol!
-
Did anyone read my post about realistic limits? Just wondering lol
-
This challenge is for sweet18_2003
I dare you to write a story in which Brian is the leading guy, since you mostly choose Nick, AJ or Kevin to be the center of the story.
Other 'rules' are:
Genre: NO medical drama or humor lol. It has to be a horror/thriller one.
Storyline: Brian has to be the bad guy. Why? Your decision, as long as it isn't because something bad happened to Baylee and/or Leighanne, he suffers from psychosis or whatever psychological/physical reason.
He has to hurt one (or more) of the other guys, but that can't be an accident! And by hurt, I don't mean punching their lights out, but something more gruesome.
The other guy has to have a mental breakdown right before or during being hurt by Brian.
Also, the whole thing cannot be a dream! The guys are the guys, we're not in the far away future or an alternate universe of some kind.
And your word count is at least 1500 words.
I hope that will be a challenge for you and if you choose to do this one, I can't wait to read the result!
-
This one is for Sakabelle!
Leading guy(s): As long as it isn't Nick, it's fine by me lol.. Well, it has to be one of the BSB or Sam and Dean from Supernatural.
Genre: Humor
Storyline: Start out by having him/them being chased by a orange dinosaur.
Restrictions: It can't be a (day)dream, alternate universe, time-travelling thing or something like that.
Word count: at least 1250 words.
If you decide to accept: Have fun and can't wait for the result!
Edit: Just some typo..
-
And I have one more challenge, but this one is for TantillisinTeaser!
Leading guy: Howie
Genre: Humor and maybe a hint of suspense.
Storyline: Place Howie inside a psychiatric institution, trying to find his way out. He never succeeds though. He is there by himself, and there can't be any dialogue whatsoever. He might run in to other patients or staff, but we never hear them speak. The reader has to be 'inside' Howie's head, and all we can read are his thoughts or hear him mumbling to himself. He can either have gone a bit crazy or not, but whatever you decide, give us a good reason as to why he's there. Catch is, he is NOT there to visit any of the other boys.
Just to humor me, devote one paragraph entirely to him thinking about carrots.
Restrictions: Cannot be a dream again, or an alternate universe. The guys are the guys etc etc.
Word count: minimum is 1600 words.
If you decide to write this story, have fun and good luck!
-
Ok, I have a challenge for Nijntje.
I would love to read a fluffy fairy-tale romance from you. It can be about about any of the boys you choose or a female lead, doesn't matter. The catch is, you have to take it seriously. No wise crack stories about groundhogs or anything. There can be as much humor in it as you want, but it cannot be a sarcastic story or a parody in any way. You have to make me believe you love writing fluffy romance. Keep the story line as light and fluffy as possible! No drama/angst! and of course, in the end they live happily ever after!
Should you choose to except this mission, it would make me very excited!
-
Or, if you don't do that challenge, (Nijntje) I'll make a challenge where you have to kill Kevin!
-
Oh my oh my.. I should think of a revenge challenge for you.. but since you've already been challenged, it wouldn't matter anyway lol. This will be hell for me. I'm a drama/humor kinda girl.. :( (I know, I know, hence the challenge..)
-
Mare!
I know you have several challenges already, but I felt like adding to the list. Just in case you don't feel like writing romance or slash or whatever else, my challenge to you is to write a Supernatural fic! It can be whatever genre you'd like and about whatever you want and as long as you feel necessary. My only requirement is that both Sam and Dean are involved somehow. I'm not too picky, lol. I would just love to read Supernatural from you. You're so good with brotherly relationships. I would love to see how you do Sam and Dean!
-
Hmm.. I think I might have come up with a way to obey the rules, but still not completely end up with a normal romance.. *grins*
-
Oh my oh my.. I should think of a revenge challenge for you.. but since you've already been challenged, it wouldn't matter anyway lol. This will be hell for me. I'm a drama/humor kinda girl.. :( (I know, I know, hence the challenge..)
Lol I love challenges, so you can give it your best shot. Maybe I could combine the two and write your challenge in 2nd person! ;)
-
lol nah.. like some of the other girls said, creating a challenge for you is hard since you're kinda an allround writer.. ;)
-
lol, well, ok then. But have fun with yours and write me a wonderful story to love and cherish forever!
-
I'll have fun, but if I were you, I wouldn't count on a wonderful story lol
-
Aww, I'm sure no matter how you manage to break the rules, you'll come up with something wonderful!
-

Are you aware I have already written one of these? LOL *goes to look for link*
Here's the link to the story. If you don't think it counts we'll see if I can get another one written although I really do think I suck at Sam and Dean, thanks for the compliment!
http://absolutechaos.net/viewstory.php?sid=8869
-
Aww i'm so glad now everyone has officially been challenged! Woot!
-
My *NSYNC challenge nauseated people?! :( LOL.
-
And wow for all the romance stories people want me to write, lmao. Doesn't someone want me to write a story of Kevin being abducted by a freaking mutant talking llama, thus being the real reason why he left the Backstreet Boys?!?
-
^ Yes please
-
Don't forget to go post in the other thread once you are challenged so this way we can all keep track of how many challenges people have and who might not even be aware they have been challenged yet.
Guys if you someone with five challenges or more try to give a challenge to someone else. lol
-
Haha, I'm stuck with three challenges and Jen won't even do my challenge. :( Lol. I'll have to modify hers. Maybe just make her fall in love with Justin... hmm... but I'm almost done with two of my three challenges.
-
I wouldn't either if I was Jen lol

-
Will someone challenge me to something besides a vizzy? lol
-
aww, Mare. *tear* I reviewed your story! Yay!
-
I wouldn't either if I was Jen lol
Thank you!! I don't want to make Reb feel bad but there's no way in HELL I can do that challenge...so wee Doc!
-
AHH!! This is why it's called a "challenge"!! I can't do romance, don't like the genre for nothing, but I'm doing three of them!! No one wants me to write about Kevin getting abducted by a mutant talking llama!! Lol. But eh, *NSYNC makes me cringe too, so whatever, lol.
-
No, it's my hatred of JT Reb....I would literally gag thru the whole thing and I just can't bring myself to have HIM kill my Nicky!! A girls gotta have her standards!! lmao!!!
-
^I'd rather have the flu than write a visual and you're complaining ten times more than I am.
-
Will someone challenge me to something besides a vizzy? lol
Okay..here ya go then, Dee...
I want you to write a super outrageous comedy.
The story line should be this...all five of the guys get together to celebrate something. What they are celebrating can be anything from Leighanne being abducted by aliens to AJ or Nick FINALLY finding a decent girlfriend, whatever you'd like.
The rules:
-Kevin, Howie, Brian, and Nick have to get extremely plastered and end up passing out.
-AJ MUST stay sober...no relapse allowed.
-There should be a scene of the four guys arguing over what kind of shots to do.
-AJ should try getting the others to play various drinking games. (if they actually play or not is up to you.)
-You will have to explain what the four drunks do to embarrass themselves and how AJ reacts to thier stupid antics.
-AJ has to do something to each guy after they pass out. (put make up on them, dye thier hair, shave Howie's head, draw on them with permanant marker, whatever you'd like)
-At some point, Nick MUST end up locked out of the room in his tightie whities.
-Kevin MUST intentionally start a pillow fight with one other guy.
-Howie MUST intentionally stuff something (anything) up his nose.
-Brian MUST sing a bad rendition of Brittney Spears.
-The story should be as insanely funny as possible.
-
^ Now THAT I have no trouble imagining! You shouldn't have a problem with that one, right Dee? afterall, you're not the one who got challenged to write about a turtle named Herbie! LoL...awww, poor Herbie. Don't hit me PIC!
-
Yeah...I thought it was pretty simple...the main challenge will be to get through writting it without laughing her butt off!
I, for one, love reading those kinds of stories...it's like seeing them behind closed doors, what do they REALLY do? lmao. I have a hard time writting them because I end up in laughing fits and can't type. :D
-
That's the way I was when I wrote "Could Be Worse" for the December Challenge. It's fun writing those kinds of stories.
-
Okay..here ya go then, Dee...

So have you read Mare's story then? That's what "Why" is like. Them behind closed doors. It's not quite that funny all the time, but it's still wonderful and definitely the kind of story that makes you feel like you're a fly on the wall in Backstreet Land.
-
^*snaps* And it has stunt sandwiches. lmao
-
aww, Mare. *tear* I reviewed your story! Yay!
Thanks! lol
-

You don't have to write all three. You only had to write one of them lol you chose to do it and I want you to write about a llama. I actually am going to challenge someone to write a ridiculous story, I just haven't decided who yet.
-
So have you read Mare's story then? That's what "Why" is like. Them behind closed doors. It's not quite that funny all the time, but it's still wonderful and definitely the kind of story that makes you feel like you're a fly on the wall in Backstreet Land.
That's one of the one's that I've been meaning to read because I have heard so many wonderful things about it...but, I sadly haven't actually read it yet. lmao. But it has definately moved to the top of my list, now that you've said that!
-
Thank you. lmao And I'm totally doing your second idea. ROFL.
Why, you are quite welcome, my dear! WHOOT for AJ or Nick getting a decent girlfriend! lmao
-

Aww thanks for the plug guys! lol
-

It's certainly and event worth celebrating. lol
-
It's certainly and event worth celebrating. lol
Yeah, but will it ever happen in reality? Not impossible but highly improbable.
-
Any possible way I can have a challenge that DOESN'T involve killing my beloved AJ?
-
Yeah, but will it ever happen in reality? Not impossible but highly improbable.
It'll happen eventually, I'm sure. When is tough to say.
-
Alrighty...thi s one is for Kelly (honey).
Here is your challenge. You must explain in the first paragraph how AJ and Nick came into posession of CB radios. They play with them and somehow drag the others into thier little games.
Rules:
-After the initial paragraph of explanation, the rest of the story MUST be the guys talking in ONLY "trucker talk"
-All five guys must participate at some point. (Some can put up a fight because it's childish or whatever but they all must cave in by the end of the story and end up having fun with it)
-Thier "trucker names" are Chaos Carter, Bone Daddy, B-Rockster, Howard the Duck, and Black Caterpiller.
-If any other person is mentioned in the story, they must be refferred to ONLY by a "trucker name" (ex. if Leighanne walks in the room, Nick could say Blonde Boobs coming on in, make way.)
-The following phrases MUST be used at least once:
-Come back.
-Colorado Kool Aid
-Over.
-Over and out.
-Do you copy?
-Coming in, loud 'n proud.
-That's a big 10-4.
-You MUST go to this site http://www.cbgazette.com/slang.html it has an alphabetical list of CB slang terms and thier meanings. In addition to the phrases above you must use at least one phrase or word from every letter. Other than that, there is no limit to how many words you can use...but, obviously the more they use, the funnier it will be.
Good Luck...I hope you accept! ;D
-At least half of the CB slang phrases / words have to be used in proper context. The guys can mess the other ones up, if you want.
-The actual content of thier conversations don't matter. The whole challenge is about them being knock off truckers. You may want to include the above link, at the end, in case anyone wants to look up the meanings.
*edit was only for minor spelling typos

holy canolies batman...
-
LMFAO! Why can't Howie's trucker name be Diesel?
-
Wow. Y'all think up pretty crazy stuff!
~Lenni~
-
LMAO because that's his boxing name.
I already have an idea for this one and I'm already laughing. Nice. I'm really curious to try Rose's challenge too, so I may have to attempt both. But that is a LOT of rules. I'll try my best to keep them all...
-
holy canolies batman...
Think you can do it? Sorry, I've got a bit of a twisted mind.
LMFAO! Why can't Howie's trucker name be Diesel?
Becasue Howard the Duck is funnier? *shruggs*
-
We had fun thinking that up! It was more Kris than me, but I helped. I would love to see it written! It would be funny!
-
lol Kelly. Yay for your warped mind!
-
I thought it was a lot of rules too, but when I re-read it...it's really not. Just certain names and phrases, really. And yes, Kelly Kel did help. But you really don't want to know how it all came about! LMAO.
-
LMAO because that's his boxing name.
Becasue Howard the Duck is funnier? *shruggs*
But Diesel screams "trucker."
-
But Diesel screams "trucker."
Howard the Duck is still funnier. lol
-
besides...duck s are related to geese and geese honk!

I'll be heartbroken if you don't do mine :(
Alota sucks for challenging you LOL

Keep saying I suck and I won't do yours, either...ROSE! :P

I didnt think it was THAT funny! :-\
-
Okay...this one is for my dear Steph (Sakabelle)
Your challenge is to write a story in any genere, except romance or comedy/humor.
Your main characters should be Howie, AJ, and Kevin. Nick and Brian are on vacation somewhere in Antartica so they can't be in the story AT ALL.
I am not going to give you a storyline...us e your creative juices.
The only rule is that the following items/words/phrases MUST be mentioned at some point in the story.
-Diet Cherry Pepsi
-snort
-Butterfinger(s)
-caramel apple pie scented candles
-I Know What You Did Last Summer
-Trick-or-Treat
-laptop
-popcorn
-one eyed, one horned, flying, purple people eater
-cell phone
-AT&T
-cable TV
-dirty socks
-pooper scooper
-pink leotard and tights
Remember that comedy/humor is not to be the genere, so you must make this as serious as possible. ;D
-
Nick and Brian are on vacation somewhere in Antartica so they can't be in the story AT ALL.
Can Nick and Brian not be on vacation in Antartica? I feel like it's been overdone...
-
Can Nick and Brian not be on vacation in Antartica? I feel like it's been overdone...
Yeah, them together with penguins can only be cute for so long LOL
-
Plus if Nick really went to Antartica, he would die of hypothermia, because he doesn't wear climate appropriate clothing.
-
Yeah, them together with penguins can only be cute for so long LOL
We'll never know what they're doing because they won't be in the story, lol. Heck...maybe they only SAID they were going to Antartica because they didn't want the others tagging along but REALLY they are going to the Bahamas, to pick up chicks. *shruggs*
-
^Isn't Brian you know... married? lol
-
Yeah...your point?
-
Married people don't pick up chicks.
-
Plus if Nick really went to Antartica, he would die of hypothermia, because he doesn't wear climate appropriate clothing.
Oh definitely especially with the short sleeved sweater.
Poor Nick, Kevin needs to teach him how to dress for the weather. :D
-
Married people don't pick up chicks.
That all depends on the married person. Besides, I never said he was picking up chicks for himself...mayb e he's screening them for Nick? Weren't we discussing his need for a decent girlfriend? Who knows who he'll end up with next, if we let him keep picking them, himself. lmao. :P
-
I have a challenege for Mare!
Mare, should you choose to accept it, your challenge is as follows:
Write a story in which Nick premeditates and carries out the murder of Kevin.
And now the details!
~The story must be the maximum word count.
~The story cannot be a dream.
~The killing scene must be extremely detailed.
~The motive for killing Kevin can be anything and Nick can kill anyone else besides Kevin... But he must kill Kevin.
~Also, Brian has to provide comic relief at least once during this story, since you know... it's depressing. lol
Ready.... go! :)
-
Oh definitely especially with the short sleeved sweater.
Poor Nick, Kevin needs to teach him how to dress for the weather. :D
Yeah.... I'll never understand the short-sleeved turtleneck. lmao And black of all colors. lol
It could be like Sesame Street, lol. One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn't belong.
lmao

Okay, maybe I should rephrase that. Married, devoutly Christian people like Brian don't pick up chicks. You know, especially when they have children and everything.
Besides, in order for the screening to be effective, all four other Boys would need to do it together, kind of like a reality tv show or something.... *dibs on writing that story, lol*
-
*has a giggle fit and can't wait to see Mare's reaction* I love you lol
LMAO so true. But it's Nick, he's special
You're welcome. lol
Nick's way special. lol
-
Okay, maybe I should rephrase that. Married, devoutly Christian people like Brian don't pick up chicks. You know, especially when they have children and everything.
Well, it doesn't really matter what Brian and Nick are doing...the point is that they are far far away and, therefore, cannot be in the story. lol. Nick can be in your bed with Brian standing watch at the door if you want...it don't make no nevermind to me. :P
-
Married people don't pick up chicks.
Maybe they are really chicks you know like the bock bock kind. lol I can see them all picking up little baby chicks! Although they'd need sweaters in antartica.
-
Aww Dee thanks for the challenge but sadly I cannot accept because I will not for any reason ever kill off one of the boys. It's the overly superstitious side of me. Sowwy :P
I do have two of the three challenges I have gotten already done though.
-
aaaw, everyone seems to be getting a least a good start on thier challenges. Except me...I am having issues with this whole sci-fi thing, lol, anything I have thought up, sounds like a really bad episode of Star Trek. LMAO.
-

It's a shame that wasn't your first challenge. :P
I'd kill to see you do it lol.

The poor chicks would freeze to death :(
-
It's a shame that wasn't your first challenge. :P
I'd kill to see you do it lol.
The poor chicks would freeze to death :(
If that was my first challenge I just would have waited for my second challenge lol I love Dee, but it's just something I can't do. *squishy hugs Dee* Now I will willingly kill off anyone else. lol
-
If that was my first challenge I just would have waited for my second challenge lol I love Dee, but it's just something I can't do. *squishy hugs Dee* Now I will willingly kill off anyone else. lol
Would I get a super smiting if I admitted I dared Dee to do it? lmao.
I didn't think you would but I wanted to see lol.
-
^ You are already just on my natural smiting list so I guess you had nothing to lose. lol :P
And Kristal, just make a funny Star Trek story. Picture Howie with a ton of thise weird Tribble things. If that's what they're called.

You smite me out of love ;D, I'm twisted, what can I say? lol
Has anyone other than Mare seen Hitchhiker Guide To The Galaxy? One can always go that route.
-
LMAO I love that movie.
-
I liked that movie! That thought had crossed my mind, too. That, and that one Tim Allen movie...Galexy Quest...or Evolution, maybe.
-
^ I just read Rose's challenge to you and since it takes place in the distant future and she didn't say you couldn't kill anyone you could just have Kevin and Howie dead and Bob be the person maybe eulogizing them on the 500th anniversary of their death or something? lol Maybe they are Gods on this new planet and you can explain why. That coulsd get you to 2000 words easy. lol :P
*waits for Rose to smack me*

*waits for Rose to smack me*
and this is why Mare is my hero!
-
:) Am I the Wind Beneath Your Wings? lol
-
Nope...even better...your the reason I made my banner smaller! ;)
-
ooh that's much better! lol
-
lmao...I even shortened the summary! I've only done it for Protection, so far. That and LATB are the only ones I've been updating lately. But, I plan to reduce the Dark Nights banner whenever I update it...and it's all for you Mare!
-
YAY! Hopefully everyone will start following suit! Woot! :) lol
-
well...plus the fact that the huge banners are getting on my nerves too...so I figured it might help the cause, if new people see that the existing banners aren't huge...maybe they will be less likely to make thiers so big.
Wishful thinking? Maybe. Worth a shot? Definately.
-
YAY! Hopefully everyone will start following suit! Woot! :) lol
Exactly my thoughts.
-
I have a challenege for Mare!
Mare, should you choose to accept it, your challenge is as follows:
Write a story in which Nick premeditates and carries out the murder of Kevin.
And now the details!
~The story must be the maximum word count.
~The story cannot be a dream.
~The killing scene must be extremely detailed.
~The motive for killing Kevin can be anything and Nick can kill anyone else besides Kevin... But he must kill Kevin.
~Also, Brian has to provide comic relief at least once during this story, since you know... it's depressing. lol
Ready.... go! :)
*points out that I did NOT post this challenge*
-
^ I think my constant removal of the big banners might help as well lol I jump all over that stuff. Let's hope it gets better. I notice it happens in waves.
-
*points out that I did NOT post this challenge*
Yes and because of that you were not smited. :)
-
LMAO...now see, I must be really strange because when I went to make my first banner...I went and researched what size they were supposed to be and read all the rules about them...BEFORE I made it and stayed within the set guidlines.
Wow...and I thought that's what you were SUPPOSED to do! Silly me. ;)
-
okay...to get this back on topic...I shall challenge someone...*runs off to decide who I should challenge next*
-
I don't think Sinara has seen her challenge yet in here.
-
Well, it doesn't really matter what Brian and Nick are doing...the point is that they are far far away and, therefore, cannot be in the story. lol. Nick can be in your bed with Brian standing watch at the door if you want...it don't make no nevermind to me. :P
I care what they're doing. lol
Maybe they are really chicks you know like the bock bock kind. lol I can see them all picking up little baby chicks! Although they'd need sweaters in antartica.
Oh well, yes, everyone should want to pick up baby chickens. :) Is it the chickens that would need sweaters in Antartica, or Nick and Brian? lol
-
^ All of them!
-
Aww Dee thanks for the challenge but sadly I cannot accept because I will not for any reason ever kill off one of the boys. It's the overly superstitious side of me. Sowwy :P
I do have two of the three challenges I have gotten already done though.
It's okay; Rose was the one who really wanted it. lol
Go Mare! *does a pom pom dance for Mare*
-
If that was my first challenge I just would have waited for my second challenge lol I love Dee, but it's just something I can't do. *squishy hugs Dee* Now I will willingly kill off anyone else. lol
*squishy hugs Mare back* I really just did it to see your reaction. lol
-
^ I know lol and she was smited for it! Well not really because she has an on going smite.
-
*points out that I did NOT post this challenge*
Rose wanted you to do it first. lol
-
^ All of them!
Where can one find so many tiny sweaters? lol
^ I know lol and she was smited for it! Well not really because she has an on going smite.
At least I wasn't smited. lol I kind of want to put up my schmoika as an icon now. lol
-
Chicks R Us and aww lol you should.
-
Alright...this challenge is for Miss Lenni!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Should you choose to accept this challenge, the genere will be drama.
The main character is Kevin.
The story should be written in Kevin's POV. Here's the thing...Kevin's been really sick, lately. You'll need to discribe, in detail, what he is feeling and going through and what his symptoms are. After procrastinatin g (how long is up to you) he finally goes to the doctor (this is where some of the symptoms can be explained) and finds out that he has HIV or AIDS.
You would need to explain what finally made him go to the doctor and what his reaction is to the news. His thoughts will automatically go to wondering how he contracted it...does he figure it out and if so, how did it happen.
You should explain his feelings and thoughts about the whole situation. The story should also explain if/how/when he tells the other guys, his family, and friends. Explain everyone else's reactions to his news (if/when he tells them).
Now, you can give us just the run down of everything as it is happening to him or you can use it as a flashback while he's on his death bed.
Good luck! (if you accept, that is)
-
Chicks R Us and aww lol you should.
I had no idea such a store existed. lol I would, but it would ruin our grammar nazi theme.
-
^ I just read Rose's challenge to you and since it takes place in the distant future and she didn't say you couldn't kill anyone you could just have Kevin and Howie dead and Bob be the person maybe eulogizing them on the 500th anniversary of their death or something? lol Maybe they are Gods on this new planet and you can explain why. That coulsd get you to 2000 words easy. lol :P
*waits for Rose to smack me*
YOU SUCK! lol *smacks you, smites you...goes and kills Nick* But it must be all about Howie and Kevin anyway. So yeah. Having Bob be the lead is so cheating.
I don't think it was a hard challenge anyway lol :P
-
^ I know lol and she was smited for it! Well not really because she has an on going smite.
I've got an ongoing one? :D Lmao even when I behave? Gee thanks I feel so special and loved :P
And Dee you're such a tattletale lol
-
And Dee you're such a tattletale lol
You admitted it before I said anything. lmao
-
You admitted it before I said anything. lmao
Yes I know but you weren't helping anyway lol.
Oh well I've got a special never ending smite so yay me!
-
^It's fun being a jerk. lol
-
I had no idea such a store existed. lol I would, but it would ruin our grammar nazi theme.
Because you are not a chick. lol
-
^It's fun being a jerk. lol
And you are smited too! lol
-
Just so you all know, someone else has joined the party so think of a good challenge for her!
-
Because you are not a chick. lol
Well, not in the sense of a baby chicken with fluffy feathers type. lol
And you are smited too! lol
But I only like being a jerk to Rose. *pouts*
-
Well in that case, I take away your smite. Although you did challenge me to kill Kevin. How about we put you on a smite probation?
-
^Because Rose asked me to. lol
Although I guess a smite probation is better than a smite. lol
-
Yup lol
-
So how does one get off a smite probation?
-
By doing things that would leave you smite free. Not winning Bingo, being nice to me at all times, yeah, that's about it. lol After a few weeks the smite will dissolve.
-
Well,n I'm not even playing Bingo this round, so there's definitely no chance I'll win. lol
-
^ you'll still manage to win before me though :( *sighs*
-
*squishy hugs Mare* Don't worry, you've come closer to winning than I ever have. But I'll pom pom for you just in case. :)
-
Thanks. lol I'm starting to develop a bingo related disorder :(
-
Is it deadly or contagious? :(
-
Nope, I just find myself randomly shouting BINGO! for no reason. :(
-
Awe. :( At least you're not shouting BINOG. lol
-
True. I guess i'm still safe then.
-
Maybe you just need to play Bingo elsewhere? lol
I'll even make up Backstreet Bingo or something for you. lol
-
I think I am going to sit the next round of bingo out. LOL maybe depends on who wins!
-
You'd have to sit it out if you won. lol
-
True lol i'm not going to win. :(
-
*Does a pom pom cheer for Mare complete with tumbling and high kicks and what not*
-
By doing things that would leave you smite free. Not winning Bingo, being nice to me at all times, yeah, that's about it. lol After a few weeks the smite will dissolve.
LOL no wonder I have an ongoing smite. I don't do anything to leave me smite free.
*squishy hugs Mare anyway*
-
Yay for another challenge! But....why must I kill someone or someone be dying with both my challenges??? Lol. Are y'all that determined to see me kill people off or something??? Lol.
~Lenni~
-
...Have you ever killed off a BSB before, Lenni?
-
Yay for another challenge! But....why must I kill someone or someone be dying with both my challenges??? Lol. Are y'all that determined to see me kill people off or something??? Lol.
~Lenni~
Go read my challenge again, cuz I don't believe it says ANYWHERE in there, that Kevin's actual death is a requirement. LOL. Read your challenges carefully, Lenni. :P ;)
-
Hey Lenni, be glad you have a challenge. I am (im)patiently waiting for one, even if I signed up only yesterday... heh.
-
Yes, I've had a BSB die off before - lol.
Yes, I re-read it twice. I know he doesn't hafta die.....but if I end up crying, while writing that.....*narrows eyes*.....lol.
I'll do my best! But, no promises! ForeverRebel & I are excited she'll be here in less than 2 weeks, then BSB....& work. Then company comes....then more BSB! But I am determined to write something! Just - not tonight - lol.
~Lenni~
-
Don't forget for anyone that is interested in being challenged you have about one more week to put your name in the first thread. The part one thread also some of you that have been challenged need to post ti the stickied thread. I dn't know if some of you realize you even have challenges at this point.
-
I've spotted both mine, just haven't posted both in the sticky yet.
~Lenni~
-
Hey Lenni, be glad you have a challenge. I am (im)patiently waiting for one, even if I signed up only yesterday... heh.
Okay...here you go...
Your challenge is to write a twisted romance. The lead female MUST be one of the participating challenge writters (see the first page of this thread). She is AJ's long time girlfriend of 5 years, however she has been sleeping with Howie, behind AJ's back for 1 1/2 years. In reality, her heart belong to Nick, but he doesn't know.
rules:
-noone can die or be seriously injured
-all three men have to find out about everything she has been hiding
-someone had to start a verbal fight
-she MUST end up with one of the guys at the end
are you ready for the big clincher? The whole story MUST be told in the POV of her dog! Yes...this story MUST be told in the dog's POV. The dog is a cute french poodle names Sassy Girl and she goes everywhere with her master.
Have fun and good luck! :D
-
^LOL! That is classic! You must write this because I am already dying to read it!
-
Oh. My. Effing. GOD.
...This is going to be interesting.
-
Okay guys, Sarah is now waiting for a challenge as well. So, think of something good for her!
-
rofl @ the challenge for Starry Eyes..
Can't wait to read that one as well!
(Has anyone noticed we all got a lot of reading to do in August?!)
-
So I thought that, even though I'm not writing a challenge (as of yet), I'd get in the game and challenge one of my favorite writers...Juli e!
So here ya go:
I challenge you to write a story where the leads are Howie and AJ. Kevin and Nick can be in the story (though neither of them should have more dialogue than Howie), but Brian cannot in any way be in the story, not even as a passing reference. The story has to be of the supernatural genre and include at least 2 supernatural beings (ex: witches, werewolves, etc). There should be absolutely no romance involved, though there can be females in the story. The story cannot be a dream, but there must be at least one violently graphic scene involving Howie or AJ AND one of the supernatural beings. The rest...is up to you and your imagination :)
-
LOL thanks, Sarah! To be perfectly honest, I know I'm gonna write Rose's challenge to me. If, by the time I finish that, I'm thirsty for more and not too busy, yours sounds like it would be cool, but I'm not gonna make any promises. I'm a little worried that by the time August hits, my inspiration is gonna fly out the window because of Bsb shows and school.
(P.S. Oddly enough, I actually have a short story that almost meets your qualifications . I think Brian is probably in it... but other than that, I think it's got everything else: Howie and AJ, at least two supernatural beings, no real romance although there is a female (she's one of the supernatural beings), and a somewhat graphic death scene that involves AJ/supernatural being. And it's not a dream. http://www.geocities.com/dreamers_sanctuary2/evil.html)
-
Well, that's perfectly understandable . I haven't had any inspiration all summer what with wedding-palooza, which has yet to end lol Maybe you could just skillfully edit Brian out lol
-
Aww... well, maybe this challenge thing will help get your inspiration going again. LOL I'm not gonna edit Brian out and try to pass something I wrote 7 years ago as this challenge; that's not really the point. I just realized it as I was trying to think of what I might write for yours. It's a great challenge!
-
Sarah, I have an idea for you, I just have to work out the details. :) You'll love it.
-
Do you girls get together and plan the themes for your icons, signatures, etc? lol 'cause it was just about grammar and now it's about zombies... I was wondering if I missed some memo!
**I still have no idea how I am going to write my challenge... we have until the end of August, right? LOL.**
-
Basically. lol
-
You can attribute our avys to random late night Yahoo chats.
-
LOL, okay. I was just curious!
-
We're awesome like that! lol
-
Aww... well, maybe this challenge thing will help get your inspiration going again. LOL I'm not gonna edit Brian out and try to pass something I wrote 7 years ago as this challenge; that's not really the point. I just realized it as I was trying to think of what I might write for yours. It's a great challenge!
lol I was just joking about the editing thing. And, seriously, don't worry about doing it if you don't have the time. I promise, I won't go all zombie on you and eat your brains out ;)
-
Do you girls get together and plan the themes for your icons, signatures, etc? lol 'cause it was just about grammar and now it's about zombies... I was wondering if I missed some memo!
Yep, lol we're cool like that. Or dorky. Depending on the point of view lol :D
You can attribute our avys to random late night Yahoo chats.
Our late night yahoo chats produce a lot of awesomeness don't they? hehe.
We're awesome like that! lol
Yep, we're just very spiffy. :D lol, plus how can one not love zombies?
-
I don't think Sinara has seen her challenge yet in here.
Actually, I just saw it today. I've been out of town for about 2 weeks. =) But I will get right on it as soon as I've recuperated from driving almost 3000 this trip.
-
Am I to late or can I add a challenge? ::)
-
I think we have until August 1st (tomorrow...gee z July passed by fast) to post a challenge.
-
Starbeamz2 does not have a challenging,I think I'll give her one.
You MUST write an action/adventure
You MUST use the song The Call
You must use the words listed-
spider
boat
frick
frack
dictionary
gun
inspiration
You MUST have aj hit nick over the head with something
You MUST NOT kill ANY of the guys
-
aww, cool! thanks!
-
YAY ME!!!! ;D
-
This is challenge is for Sarah and I've been working on it for a while. lol
Sarah, you must write a story starring none other than Howie. Since his birthday is August and he doesn't get as much love as he should. So, got it? Starring Howie.
It should also be a fantasy and Howie needs to fight a dragon at one point. Because dragons are cool.
So yup, that's all. Go Howie! ;D
-
Wow, talk about last minute lol
-
She joined at the last minute. lol
-
OMG... something just hit me now... I lost ALL my responses to my challenges!! :o :'( Ugh... this sucks.
-
She joined at the last minute. lol
I'm talking about you! lol
-
lol Mare, I think she meant that, because I joined at the last minute (and last minute is relative btw because I joined with over a week and a half left in July), her challenge to me came late, too
-
I'm talking about you! lol
I know. And I meant because Sarah joined later, the challenge posted to her was later; it's all relative. lol
And Sarah said the exact same thing. lol
-
Mine may not be done until September or something, when everything's calmed down. This week I'm getting back into the swing of work & trying to edit & post my concert photos. Next week, my Aunt, Uncle, & cousins will be here. The week after I see BSB again & will have more concert photos to edit & post. So, yeah....I may be a bit late with this challenge....
~Lenni~
-
YAY!!! I am finding this a bit late...just finished a pretty big move...but I am definitely going to take you up on this challenge. Give me by the end of tomorrow, and I should have a good portion of it done :) It will be a challenge for me...but I look forward to writing it :)
This challenge is for sweet18_2003
I dare you to write a story in which Brian is the leading guy, since you mostly choose Nick, AJ or Kevin to be the center of the story.
Other 'rules' are:
Genre: NO medical drama or humor lol. It has to be a horror/thriller one.
Storyline: Brian has to be the bad guy. Why? Your decision, as long as it isn't because something bad happened to Baylee and/or Leighanne, he suffers from psychosis or whatever psychological/physical reason.
He has to hurt one (or more) of the other guys, but that can't be an accident! And by hurt, I don't mean punching their lights out, but something more gruesome.
The other guy has to have a mental breakdown right before or during being hurt by Brian.
Also, the whole thing cannot be a dream! The guys are the guys, we're not in the far away future or an alternate universe of some kind.
And your word count is at least 1500 words.
I hope that will be a challenge for you and if you choose to do this one, I can't wait to read the result!
