[FFML] Re: [Spamfic][Challenge] Restarting the Bet: A Challenging Spamfic

I think I must have missed something - I backsearched through all the posts I'd received from the FFML though and couldn't find it. What's this about "The Bet"? I remember reading several of the fics based on it several years ago.

I for one would be interested in doing something similar (and for much the same reason as the original bet, actually). I have many ideas for stories that have fallen by the wayside simply because there wasn't enough time to work on them - it would be gratifying to know which people would like to read more of. Unfortunately, the fandom hasn't anything close to the same number of people here on the FFML as it does elsewhere. Ah well - Perhaps I'll take it to the DH forums instead.

Still, I'd like to know what the original proposal was, if anyone could forward me the message it was in, I'd be very grateful.

Tannim Murphy is attempting the same thing with his SI Idea/Challenge.
But to be honest, whether or not anyone takes serious effort on the
FFML to try this challenge out, there are those who are indeed.
Myself included.

Rockman_Zero said that he wanted a new Pantheon, feel free to do your
own new pantheon for the fic. I personally made the
challenge/openning riff in an effort to pay homage to the original
Bet.

I'm really sorry that people don't want to take this seriously. And
I'm sorry we'll miss out on whatever writing you could have done.
