Ideas

Post by Alicecream »

Any ideas or SO stories that I might want to consider when creating the manga?
Also, I do have the character designs for (active) people I've interacted with/ and have seen.. But do you guys have a preference for your designs?
I plan on getting a teaser done and character designs uploaded to increase the hype lol.

I will consider, but I was asking for potential stories, not characters.

Someone looking at 50+ microbial diseases on a 9 screen monitor.

Also, from personal experience, an anti-climatic Helicopter launch or Mission run (say a string breaking, leaving two grey-faced teammates).

Some character ideas: the study-master that just can't build, the build-master that just can't study, the over-performing member that no one notices until regionals, the one who studies with Facebook and espn, the one who forgot to come, and the Captain trying to keep everyone together.

Any station event where the team before you spends an eternity moving from one to the next.

Speaking of Mission...I know for Div. C the end task is making a recording play "The End" at the end. I personally find that fact hilarious.

The one who might be the only boy on his team without a build event. The one who feels like almost every other person on http://www.scioly.org is smarter than him. The one who spends way too much free time on the site.

I don't think I've ever done a pure build (I did Simple Machines), though I know enough about some of them to comment on the threads. I might have done Towers if no one else on my team was good at it.
