[CW] Smash 'EM Up Sunday: Mad Libs V
It has been asked for for quite some time, and I’m finally comfortable - over a year later - to officially offer it. SEUS will now have a campfire event! Sunday morning at 8:30 AM EST in our Discord server’s voice chat, come hang out and listen to the stories that have been submitted be read. I’d love to have you there!
Lots of fun Heists this week. We had some traditional bank robberies, sci-fi ship thefts, time travel, aquarium break outs, and everything in between. It was hard to pick out some favorites, but the deed has been done!
/u/stranger_loves - “Yacht Party” - A classic heist story told very well.
/u/krepling - “You Shouldn’t Have” - How a good heist can change a life.
/u/BootstrapsNotWorking - “A Murder Heist” - I’m a sucker for fun wordplay. It’s also a great fable-style story.
Community Choice was a bit anemic this week sadly D: I really do depend on y’all’s votes! I hope we’ll see more votes sent my way in the future. Remember you can DM me here or on our Discord server!
Starting 2021 off with a five week month is fun. It feels like we just had a Mad Libs week! Here we are again. If this is your first time, the theme is open, but we have constraints randomly gathered by our regular participants. I’ve credited each redditor so you know who to silently curse as you try to get everything together!
Write a story or poem, no more than 800 words in the comments using at least two things from the three categories below. The more you use, the more points you get. Because yes! There are points! You have until 11:59 PM EDT 06 February 2021 to submit a response.
After you are done writing please be sure to take some time to read through the stories before the next SEUS is posted and tell me which stories you liked the best. You can give me just a number one, or a top 3 and I’ll enter them in with appropriate weighting. Feel free to DM me on Reddit or Discord!
