As the title suggests, your task this challenge is to create a story about the game. It may be about a single round in the game, a part of the game, or the entire game from your Point of View. BUT, it cannot be a simple re-telling of events. You need to turn it into some type of creative story. You could make it a Murder Mystery, A Zombie Movie, you could take the Pirate/Ninja/Robot theme and make it more literal, or any other genre you think could work. However you want to tell the story is up to you
Your story will be graded based on the following Criteria:
Grammar: 20 Points- As long as you don't misspell every other word and your grammar isn't so off that I cant understand what I'm reading you will be fine.
Length and Detail- 20 Points-How descriptive were you in your story and how many details did you include? A general synopsis like "In the first round the pirate made Cortez walk the plank...har har, then in the 2nd TC" is not going to earn you anything. The goal here is between 500-2000 words.
Creativity-60 Points- This is where the bulk of the points are. How creative, fun and interesting was your story and was it enjoyable to read?
Part 2: Tiebreaker
I also want you all to come with an idea for a future theme for a future season in this seires. It can go along the lines of Something Versus Something, or just one general theme, not Survivor characters. The more creative the better, don't give me things that have been done a 1000 times already ( Like Survivor with LOST characters or Pokemon/Super Mario Survivor, think of something unique). If I like your idea enough, I may use it and give you credit.
I'd also like you to give some ideas of what twists your "theme" season might have and an example of 1 challenge that would take place in your fantasy season that would reflect the theme.
Your Story is the main challenge for immunity, but in the event I grade 2 stories equally, the winner will be the person who IMO did better in Part 2.
I am posting this challenge early so I can watch survivor tonight and not worry about, so I'll pretend I posted at 8:00pm. Thus you have until Friday at 8:00pm est to finish this challenge. Also reminding all of you, today is the last time you are allowed to use your items, and since very few have been used so far, you can expect this to be one round you will definitely want to be immune for. Good Luck!
