    Does a fat Redguard with fondness of dogs count as Halloween themed? 

    Maybe? Is the dog undead? Does the story involve peanut butter?

    The dog's much more than undead. And no peanut better. Roasted boars, Snakeblood Ale and crazy Altmer chicks dropping by the 'hood :D

    I'm glad to hear there will be no peanut butter. That really would be a horror story :D

    Well, I guess I'll try to do something. I have, uh, neglected my writing a bit, and was going to revive my long story on NaNoWriMo, but I think a short story or two before then would be good. Now I just have to figure out what to do...

    Dunno if it's 2spooky4u enough for this event, but I wrote a Brothers Grimm-styled Orc fairy tale: The Amulet of the Lich.

    Hey, that'd be great Felkros :) I do like how you write if your Warden of Azura is anything to go by.

    Just thinking that you didn't use the H17 #tag. I may moot the idea that for all events we create a new Blog Category such as TSC: Events for one generic one, or to create individual categories each event. Content for the previous Books and Terminals would be easier to locate as they would all be in one place.

    Granted, I am working on my FO Event build which will count, but I think there will also be another punching pussy build for Skyrim that goes in a different direction. :D Let's see how I can handle it.

    Halloween events are the best events!

  • October 16, 2017

    So I haven't seen any events for TSC on Halloween yet, does that mean that just making any story (that of course stays with the theme and has the H17 #tag) will suffice? Also if I might ask, can we post stuff before October 21st or is that an absolute starting point for this page-wide event?? (of course I'll be revising and editing my short story regardless of the "dead"-line ;P)

    Sidenote: Also I'd love some help regarding tags to be used in my short story of which I've heard, or rather seen, is to be written as a Blog? (if I comprehended that right) Any of the TSC's Veterans welcome.. Thanks a million! :)

    There might not be any specific activities running for TSC as that's up to the Hosts to decide if they want anything specific going on, but please by all means write for the event and it will count :) As for the date, well I honestly have no issues with content posted when it's finished and ready to be posted. We gave everyone a week's notice so that they could start thinking and to give them time to create and post for the official start date, but I just like to see creativity and content so hate the idea of a fixed-date preventing folks from doing that :)

    So with blogs I recommend you check out Sotek's TSC Group Rules (don't worry, it's not stuffy and it explains the Category system). Golden fool made a great tutorial on how Blog Tags work if it helps :)
