SLClemins Blog Carnival

Posted June 22nd, 2010 by admin

Now, it’s time for some contests.

We’re going to have a blog carnival. Here’s the trick, the whole thing is going to be in-character. If you don’t have a copy of Maschine Zeit, you can download the timeline and basic history Timeline and Blog Entries. That should be enough to get you started. The blogs should be written by SLClemins. SLClemins, as you know or will when you read the history, is a moniker used by journalists in the machine age when talking about the space station hauntings and conspiracies, to protect themselves from reprisal.

A couple of things on the blog posts:

1) They should be about a haunted space station. Here’s one little sample. They should be in-character, attributed to SLClemins. Think independent journalism in a world where ghosts might very well be real.

2) Posts should link back to this page so it tracks back. I will repost them at the SLClemins blog page (I’ll credit them, of course, and link back to you.)

3) Keep them in the 250-1000 word range if you could. If you have something cool and/or profound, you can go beyond those guidelines.

4) Post a link to the Maschine Zeit PDF. Use this link: http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product_info.php?products_id=81873?affiliate_id=270525

5) Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

I’m giving until July 9th for this contest. July 10th, I’ll look over all the entries and post a winner ASAP. The winner not only gets recognized as a supercoolawesome person, but gets a supercoolawesome prize. By that, I mean a piece of original art from the game. This would be one of Ruth Lampi’s character pieces (you can find samples posted earlier on this blog.) I’ll send it within the US for free. Outside the US, you’d have to cover shipping.

Any questions? Toss them in the comments. But this is pretty simple.
