<div class="IPBDescription">Write me a story</div>I have a map listed on NS World called NS_Gasteiz. I don't have time to write a backstory for it, so I'm throwing it to the public. There's a bitty backstory in the map description, so please stick to that, but otherwise have fun. Post story links in response to this topic; the one that I think is the best one will be linked on NS World as the map's official backstory.

Please keep stories in either html or zipped .doc format, downloading big word documents is not something I'm inclined to do.

Here's a link to the description: <a href="http://www24.brinkster.com/mattrye/NSWorld/Map.ASP?UniqueID=%7BA13A6868%2D0D7F%2D4B76%2D8768%2D092B62AA2DB2%7D" target="_blank">NS_Gasteiz</a>

What do you win?
And what is a terraforming computer even an extreamly advance one?

Nemesis_Zero · April 2002

Well, I'd guess that a terraforming computer is a computer (d'oh) that's controling all steps neccessary to form an environment which may be inhabited by human beings (and bob, but I doubt they're doing this for him).

You never know.. it all depends on who writes the story. It could have some evil twist at the end in which the planet is so humans can live to clone an army of bobs!

Muu · April 2002

I was actualy just questioning the ability of a computer to oversee the terraforming of a planet on its own - a job which will always be done better by normal human beings.
This was basicly the plot of the indefinatly suspended ns_jewel

OK, don't mind me then. Guess my humor just wasn't awake yet when I read your post.

DruBo · April 2002

Mu: if you win, your story is the official backstory. This contest is aimed at people who like to write anyway and wouldn't mind any more prize than knowing that their story is better than everyone else's who applied. I do have some material goods in the form of a used Geforce2 MX-400, but Mart has a claim on that. (That means you writer types can't have it.)

Dark Side: Go ahead. As of right now, you're the only contestant (that I know of), so you won't have much competition.... and I'll correct your spelling errors. I'm good at that.

12:30 same day.

The hole ship shakes as something latches onto its hull.

"What was that?" one of the marines say as he gets up from his seat leaving his food on the table.

1:20 Hell begins..

"Gah! Looks like something just ripped through the wall I repaired yesterday,god damm it!" a Engineer shouted as he began repairs on the shredded wall.

A screach comes from down the hall. "What the hell was that?" The engineer says outloud as he gets up from his work and looks tword the direction he heard it from.

A cupple of seconds go by and nothing happens.The engineer shrugs and gose back to work.Suddenly he hears a loud stomic sound as he sees a large Rino like creature charging at him.He quickly gets up and starts running the other direction.The creature was too fast for him and impales him in the back with its horn comming out of his stomic as he screams in agony.The creature then savagly shakes him about tearing him apart sending half of his body behind it and the other half agenced the wall.

Three Marines hearing the noises Come around the corner to see the creature and half of the persons body on the floor,blood smeared all over the walls and the creature as it lets out a puff of air.

"Call for backup! The aliens have goten in somehow!" One of the marines yells into his com as they all open fire on the beast.THe creature charges and slams its forehead into a nother marine sending him flying into the wall knocking him out.One marine runs past the creature and begins fireing agen whill the other runs back to the knocked out marine.The creature bucks sending the marine behind it flying past the pieces of the marine and into the cealing smashing his head open.
The last marine fearing for his life runs down the hallway he came from and into the lunching area.Several other marines that where earing look up seeing a marine running for his life with a few blood splatters on him quickly get up and get thair weapons ready.
