STORY LINES

you've been lost for the past few days, not because you dont where you are, but you dont know who you are, everything you ever held dear to you has been deleted from your life, can you find yourself again and move on, or will you just evaporate in the emptyness

you're on your way to a destination of your choice, riding along the highway and you have a premonition of a wreck about to happen, inspired by final destination 2, explain what happens from all angles, the wreck, your car, the public, etc...

you've been in a foster home all your life, 12 years to be exact, it's your 13th birthday, and your gift from society is your actual parents, how do you feel when you see them, knowing when you get home you find out you would've been better off at the foster home

Your a war criminal/dictator whose country has been overthrown by the US.... You know you dont wanna answer for your crimes cause it'll most likely lead to ur execution, so U get plastic surgery and move to the US, the least likely place they'd look for u.. Describe ur everyday life

we've all heard of envy and what it can do to a person, but what can it do to a person, really, if you envy'd someone to the point that you'd do anything to get rid of that person, or maybe anything to take that persons place, how would you do it, or what would you do

Your a ghetto hood straight up out the streets of NYC...yet you live in a poor African Tribal village in the motherland...
You have all dis gangsta stuff the African people aint never seen before. Tell a story of how u trick out the Tribal Village
with ill gear with lil ta no materials around and make dem ya posse.

this is all for now, i may update it with more...
depending on your reactions to them...

i guess i can work with them

DMeTRIUS · 05-16-2004, 11:53 PM

vern ur stories have too many details ... u're taking away from creativity a bit

Anaphora · 05-17-2004, 02:30 AM

Yea, the leads are a bit long... but I'm glad you did both topics and story leads...

From the last say, month or so, there's been probably 50 good topics suggested that never made it into the RSTL... you should check the topic submission area... cuz I know for a fact Pandor's Box has been used... I remember Erykah writing about child molestation...

i can work with that, and normally i think the topics have to much of a lead to them, but with these, i think you can gather the basic idea from just the very beginning of what he put down, he may have been over zealous while writing them out....

the topicals are really played this round, not that ima fan of them anyway......

i think last week i saw the best topic my whole stay in the rstl, "write a story of honor", thats just CRAZY, awesome topic

i think we need to open up some more idea's though, later on, that the rstl usually strays away from.......

Vern Acular · 05-17-2004, 03:50 PM

just a reminder...

the good topics are being saved for later rounds...

A.S.K · 05-17-2004, 04:29 PM

Topics arent bad, just a bit lengthy.

Tha Talent · 05-17-2004, 07:51 PM

add some phrase topics.
those are sooo unoriginal.

Everkleer · 05-17-2004, 11:48 PM

word, the detail in the topic leaves no creativity for the ending, and the topicals are played

U S E R · 05-18-2004, 12:21 AM

if i can write to one of these and make it original...i want a medal

Vice Roy · 05-18-2004, 01:13 AM
