use double brackets to surround sub titles in the forum to make the autolink....one of those forum issues that I can't get around.

I was just desperately trying to figure that out

Thanks!

Next up, let's do Church. From glittering spires and domes to small local parishes, a church can be a big part of a setting. Claim sanctuary, get blessed or healed, cry out to an uncaring god... all sorts of good stuff happens in these places!

Due to the creation of Freetext Friday and the due diligence in keeping it going non-stop since it's inception (which takes some serious dedication!!) I have bestowed on Dragonlordmax the "Guardian of the Citadel" Award!

It is well earned. Thank you for what you have done for the Citadel!!

I haven't really got any idea what that means, but thank you nonetheless. It certainly sounds nice. And it is Friday now, isn't it, so here's a new Freetext for y'all:

Pulp. Yes, that's right, give me your Nazi-punchin', idol-swipin', two-fisted, wing-walkin' stuff. Bonus points for apes and/or monkeys.

A shame I missed last weeks challenge, might do a follow up on it though.

Dragonlordmax · « **Reply #81 on:** July 20, 2012, 03:47:51 PM »

I'd be happy to see anything you post. But now it's Friday, and thus time for another freetext.

We've already done vampires, so this week, let's do lycanthrope. Whether turning into wolves, panthers, rats, bears, or whatever, lycanthropes are basically people who turn into animals. But there's plenty of room to go with this one: NPCs, lycanthrope-friendly items, plots. Give me an order of wererat hunters. Investigate the city of werebears. Take werewolf porn to it's natural conclusion. It's up to you.

Also, Strolen, you sent me a PM a few days ago, and I think I responded, but I never heard back, so if you didn't get it, suffice to say that the thing you were talking about doesn't work.

Hmm, let's see....

Howzabout that most Celtic of enemies: the giant. Big, lumbering, not too bright. You know the drill. Of course, giant things could also be good.

What about a gigantic statue? Would that be accepted?

Hmm. It's hard to say with absolute certainty without seeing it, but sure, give it a go.

Strolen · « **Reply #85 on:** July 29, 2012, 03:13:02 PM »

Updated!!

((Admins, until I get Dragon access, some of you should be able to do it from the Strolenati page in the main Citadel))

Sort of a giant statue that houses the essence of something, evil, and very large

Dossta · « **Reply #87 on:** July 30, 2012, 04:41:34 PM »

I just created a 40-meter tall mutated monstrosity. It's a giant AND an exotic mount, thus fitting into two FF categories. *eyebrow waggle*

Presenting The Hellephant

Dragonlordmax · « **Reply #88 on:** August 03, 2012, 03:40:54 PM »

I'll check it out.for the moment, though, a new one.

Let's go a little non-European fantasy: sultan is this week's freetext.

Dragonlordmax · « **Reply #89 on:** August 12, 2012, 07:39:57 PM »

I have fallen tragically far behind on this. So here's this week's belated freetext: non-Euclidean. Do with it as you will.

Dragonlordmax · « **Reply #90 on:** August 17, 2012, 08:31:11 PM »

Down with the man! Up with the new world order! This week's freetext is revolutionary. Communists, angry commoners, distant colonists, brand new ideas... there are all sorts of things which can be revolutionary, so let's see some of them.

Dragonlordmax · « **Reply #91 on:** August 24, 2012, 05:56:03 PM »

I like statue - let's do that.

Dragonlordmax · « **Reply #92 on:** August 31, 2012, 08:45:11 PM »

You know what we need? Another freetext! This week, I propose femme fatale. Give me those deadly, lovely women that no PI can get enough of, and which every PI has too many of. Or something closely related to them.

Dragonlordmax · « **Reply #93 on:** September 07, 2012, 05:21:20 PM »

When there's something strange,
in the neighborhood,
who'ya gonna call?

This week's freetext is ghost, whether malevolent specters, terrifying phantoms, or friendly ghosts.

Dragonlordmax · « **Reply #94 on:** September 14, 2012, 09:58:48 PM »

No takers on ghost? Let's try for a weird one this time:

underwear

Magic corsets, shielded skinsuits, codpieces of holding, giant underpants manufacturers; there's all sorts of crazy stuff to cover with an underwear theme.

EDIT: Actually, let me change that. Underwear isn't the sort of thing people are too likely to ever look up, so let's make it the more general clothing.

Question: What is freetext? And how do I win at Freetext Friday?

Well, there is no winner to Freetext Friday (actually, everybody wins at Freetext Friday).

But here's how freetexts work: When you submit a... submission, near the bottom there will be a spot to enter a freetext. You just write in the Freetext Friday word, assuming your post is appropriate, and submit, and it works, like magic!

Strolen · « **Reply #97 on:** September 16, 2012, 03:07:29 AM »

And magically you get bonus XP as well. I think 5-10 at the moment (would have to dig into the code to find it so not positive, but there is a bonus!)

caesar193 · « **Reply #98 on:** September 16, 2012, 10:05:30 AM »

I see. Thank you for informing me. Now I have to go write up some mage's clothes.

Strolen · « **Reply #99 on:** September 16, 2012, 10:59:24 AM »

I checked, it is 25 extra XP and I updated the site tracker to log it if you do a freetext. That way, if we decide in the future to do an award or something for it, we will have it logged. Glad you mentioned it, got me to fix it!!
