ADMIN POST: Dark Side Challenge
[info]lucia_tanaka and [info]bibliokat have requested a "Dark Side" challenge. "Like, say, something a simple as exploring Ronon's harder days, the possiblity of the Wraith using Teyla for their purposes, Rodney employing his knowledge (and memorized command codes, per tLG) to take over the city, or bringing out the dangerous side of Sheppard. How about the fannish belief that the Ancients weren't as benevolent as the TPTB imply? Or a Wraith-POV story? Or examine the ethics of Carson's retrovirus? Anything involving a evil-er shade of our heroes and their adventures will do."

Today's July 15th; stories will be due July 29th at midnight.

I have two requests...first...maybe...for those who are stuck with the archaic dial-up...would it be possible to get the number of entries per page shortened? When I hit the link of the community it takes like ten minutes to load it...it's worth it...but slightly time consuming when I'm randomly going through and reading...

And second...a challenge request...

Could we get a masquerade challenge? Like a mask challenge? Maybe with stories involving the team masking themselves, or the emotional masks they wear, or the general love of costuming...you know...something like that?

Hey - I'm kinda sorta new here. ::raises hand::

Can I ask a question? Can I link to a story I wrote a couple months ago that seems to fit the parameters of this challenge? (or post it up here?)

Alas, no, because sga_flashfic has an exclusive right to challenge stories for the duration of the challenge; previously posted work isn't eligible. Sorry!

Challange Idea: Transformations. Physical, mental - anything from a change of species to a change in a point of view.

Can I take this challenge literally? As in, "In the dark"?

I'd like to try to write something to fit this but less...depressing.

Sure, absolutely! You can put 'em on the Dark Side of the Moon if you want to.

Just so's you know -- I posted about this challenge and some reactions I've seen to it, including the suggestion that people think about varying interpretations of "The Dark Side", including:

Coffee!
Chocolate!
All the lights are out!
Skin!
Eyes!
Hair!
Outer space!
The lights are still out!
Blind-man's bluff!
Some people's taste in clothes, John!
Making fun of George Lucas! (it never gets old)
Pink Floyd albums!
My, it's dark in here. What *will* we do?!

Later on down the road, what about a "still of the night" challenge? Works for romance, horror, sex, suspense, musical theater...

Um, hi. Is the dark side challenge going to actually close soon? I'm about to move and start a new job and I really would like to post my story to [info]lostcityfound and Wraithbait before I forget in the uproar, but I know we're not supposed to cross-post until the challenges end.
