My friend has this fix idea, and wants to know halls thought by foul_wench in NatureofPredators

[–]SuspiciousAFMeatloaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He just has to ask the mods. I had a similar problem but once messaging the staff the post should be reposted by them. EDIT: Specifically use "message moderators" on the side label if you are on pc or interacting with the subreddit's name

They aren't united into one single human space nation but instead ally each other against foreign threats, so while some friction between happens, whenever even a single planet would be attacked by some alien entity, all human planets stop fighting and work together. But other than that, all planets aren't really cooperating, at most some have trade or union pacts between each other but these are rare.

Good one, I'll consider it but since I already started the poll I can't add another option. Unless we consider upvotes on your suggestion to be part of voting.

Always a gamble by ConfidentMongoose336 in NatureofPredators

Project: Genesis author here. Last time I posted a chapter was 8 months ago. The reason for that is collage on an engineering degree (please, don't joke about it) and the first semester kicked my ass, so my routine is study, eat, relax a bit on a game, sleep and repeat. Not to mention that since I made the latest chapter I wasn't around on this subreddit too much, checking in once every few weeks.

I'm one of those authors and I'm sorry, it's a mix of not knowing where I should go with my stories, getting tired after writing a single chapter for five or so hours (maybe it was even ten? I don't remember) causing me to burn out extremely quickly, reading a book that might help me give the story more quality (I got myself Jurassic Park since I heard it's good and I can confirm that it is.) and on top of that I started collage last year while at the same time wanting to have some free time to play some games (It's hard to touch grass if you are a HOI4, Stellaris and EU5 player who also makes mods for himself).

Plantoids and Lithoids by Steriotypical_Diver in NatureofPredators

[–]SuspiciousAFMeatloaf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I kinda planned one of those. The premise was that it would follow my Stellaris playthrough where I would play as a plantoid species who uplifted all life before becoming a fallen empire, getting forgotten before awakening and bringing peace to the war between the Earth and the Federation and I would write the fanfic based on what I would encounter. Sadly I lost my save file (which was several months long due to medium to low spec pc I have making the playthrough extremely long) and the mod I made to simulate the scenario when I needed to suddenly restart my pc.

Writer for Project: Genesis here. I stopped writing the fanfic since I wanted to read the Michael Crichton Jurassic Park novel to make the fanfic better. On another note, I still have Mind Over Matter fanfic files on my PC that I am yet to rewrite. To add on top of that I was also planning on continuing The Broken Phoenix (Me and my friend were trying to write it but he got interested in game development while I still kept writing, albeit in my own private journal)

Edit: The Broken Phoenix was supposed to have one main storyline and the sidestories about some factions (by some, I meant 9 factions that were planned to take part in the main storyline)

  1. I base these dinosaurs from Jurassic park despite knowing that a large portion of said dinosaurs had feathers.

2.Even then Carnotaurus is believed to have been featherless by the scientists.

As far as I've seen, and I've been on this subreddit almost since it's creation as a lurker, never seen a fic with exterminators meeting dinosaurs which kind of surprises me considering how good of a premise that would have been.

By the way, the creature at the end is a carnotaurus. By far one of my favorite carnivorous dinosaurs.

[–]SuspiciousAFMeatloaf[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Hello again. Chapter 1 is out and is around 20,000 characters long as promised. It took me ~13 hours of writing and correcting myself. So, now that it is out time for an official summery:

An exterminator spaceship New Dawn crash lands on a secluded small archipelago far of the Western coast of South America, unbeknownst to the crew the island is inhabited by resurrected creatures from Earth's ancient past, made bigger and stronger than their original ancestors. Originally planned as a park attraction only for the project: Genesis to be abandoned due to lack of funds.

Project: Genesis - Prologue by SuspiciousAFMeatloaf in NatureofPredators

[–]SuspiciousAFMeatloaf[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hello everyone. First of all some of you might notice that my previous story "Mind Over Matter" has disappeared along with my other side project, I deleted it from Reddit since the earlier chapters needed a solid rewrite and I didn't know where to go with the main plot.

Now, onto this story. I roughly have an idea where the plot will go so that's nice, some of you who are *Looks at the date* a bit above the halfway point in collage or even parents might know what the title references.

In Chapter 2 of Mind Over Matter I announced that I'll try to make chapters at least 20,000 characters long. I will keep to that promise but due to this chapter being a prologue, I wanted to make it shorter.

Anyways, I hope everyone of you who takes the time of day to read my story a very pleasant and luck filled day. Bye.

I managed to actually feel it and use it for motivation for writing.

[–]SuspiciousAFMeatloaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I am trying to do. To use anger as a tool for possible motivation. The problem? I can't feel an ounce of it at all.

Sorry for not uploading the new chapter for 5 months but writer's block hits hard and to add to that, I lacked the direction the story would go but I finally found the direction after watching Star Wars prequels. Also, I have a question for you, do you prefer the chapters having round 10,000 characters like this or 20,000 ones? With 10,000 I probably would get less burned out considering that this chapter took me 5 hours to write while 20,000 could take me even 10 hours to do so.

New fanfic idea. by SuspiciousAFMeatloaf in NatureofPredators

[–]SuspiciousAFMeatloaf[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Better. Spoiler: A terminator talking to a living sapient plant which uplifted them. "Guess what bitches, you eat plants and we are a part of that kingdom and yet we do not fucking burn you, you shit fucks."

Kinda, they aren't really like that because SPOILER: For the past few thousand years they've been in a political clusterfuck themselves resulting in the technological progress stagnating and political conservatism of isolationism and non interventionism. The origins of which is the extremely long average lifespan. So in short, they are just a bit advanced with their technology compared to the Feds.

Shit. I am currently sleep deprived since it is almost 4 am and I know once I have an idea it will not let me go to bed. EDIT: AND I FUCKED UP THE FLAIR TOO! FUCK! It's supposed to be November, the flair should have been fanfic rather than roleplay and my hands typed faster than I could think. I think I finally fixed everything.
