Steven Lugo started the topic End Credits in the forum Gauntleteers 2022 1 year, 1 month ago
Hey everyone,
We now stand in January with the Gauntlet behind us. We tried some new things, and even made a new schedule. We would go on to crown a very game returning champion. We learned some important things:
1.) A thousand generations is a very long time, but people haven’t changed much through the years. They’re still people after…[Read more]

Excuse us as we trumpet through the streets, but we carry big news. Yes, it is once again time to crown a new champion. We have actual, real, in-the-flesh results, and you didn’t even have to pin yourself to social media, waiting for voting returns to drag out for weeks. We’re here right now to sort this out.
Your challenge was to write a story…[Read more]

Steven Lugo started the topic Final Round Over in the forum Gauntleteers 2022 1 year, 4 months ago
It’s hard to believe, but the Gauntlet’s Final Challenge has been met, and the round has ended. From what we’ve seen thus far, the first ever 1-week Final was a success. Congrats to our finalists, and to anyone who submitted an entry this year. Alas, there can be only one champion, and the task of judging is upon us.
Stay tuned for your Final…[Read more]

And now it comes to this.
We hope you have brought your fighting spirit to this final challenge, and all your moralizing talents. It’s time to ask yourselves what you believe. Or, rather, what can you make us believe? That remains to be seen. That is the challenge we are putting down.

Third Challenge: “In the Beginning”
Every story starts somewhere. In our own quests across literature, we’ve read a thousand fine first chapters. But sometimes there’s a taste of a story that comes before. Where will it lead us, how will it affect the narrative overall, and should prologues even exist in the first place?
Keep this all in mind…[Read more]

Round 2 is over, and the WYRM Arcade has closed. Looks like we got everybody, so that’s a lot of quarters to count.
Be sure to check back here on Tuesday night, Oct. 25th, for results of this round.
One person will unfortunately not make it to the next challenge, but that’s life in the big city.
All the best,

That does sound ominous. We only got your entry once, but I’ve seen as many as 4 of the same entry from an entrant haha, so no big deal. Glad you got in under the wire!

Greetings to the remaining challengers, and welcome to the next round! As we compete against one another and struggle onward, we ask you to remember one thing: it’s just a game after all. Speaking of which…

We now present your 1st Round results.
Unfortunately, due to the low volume of entries, we’ve been forced to change the way we normally like to do things. After some discussion, we’ve decided to eliminate one contestant this round, and to eliminate just one contestant per round moving forward.
You guys turned in some inventive flash stories…[Read more]

There’s nothing in the rules that says you guys can’t swap your stories outside of the forums, on your own. We wouldn’t try to stop you. It’s kind of cool. We suggest you keep it private though. In the first iteration of the Gauntlet, everyone could see everything. Definitely it added a fun element to this. But when future publication became a…[Read more]
