《Ben the Dungeon》Write Your Own LitRPG: Rules And Philosophy

Our Philosophy:
Nobody makes money from improv, but a lot of great stories start there. And we fucking love the old Choose You Own Adventure Books.
Write Your Own LitRPG is meant as a space for experimentation of the LitRPG genre and strictly not for profit.

Disclaimer:
- By writing in the thread you are giving your implicit permission in perpetuity for anything you add to the story to be kept together, and shown with, the rest of the story so that others can read it. This does not include Out of Character comments (defined below) and as stated we're not doing this for profit so you won't lose out. The intent of this rule is simply to keep any story created whole and together for the purpose of being read.
- Beyond that participation leaves you with your normal rights to your own work and you can use work and concepts generated in WYOL without any worry or issue, though you would need the permission of the writer if you want to use nonbasic work or concepts of other participants.
The Rules:
- Every post is continuing the story from the post it's responding to.
- There is a word limit of 500 max per post. You can respond to your own post if you wish you continue your own story, but be aware that others can also respond and try to take the story along different lines.
- Every Reddit upvote on a post brings it's content one step closer to being the One True Timeline and part of the story (though this doesn't mean that you shouldn't feel free to attempt to finish you own story with a hilariously, horrible death if your story isn't picked and comments downvoted into negative numbers will also be considered Dead Timelines so that there's an active way to deal with Spam).

- Every Monday the story shall pick up along the lines of the One True Timeline and all Game rules, Settings, Stats and Inventory shall carry on from there.
- If the MC dies in the One True Timeline, the game shall begin fresh in a new world, with a new character and new rules (as long as there is still demand to play)
- Any Out of Character comments should be in [squared brackets] otherwise it shall be considered part of the game. If there is a need for any other rules please make a OOC comments and we'll resolve it as best we can.

Shovels In Spades
We all have dreams of becoming powerful, becoming the cool mage that rules the world, living as the dashing rogue who can steal a kingdom's entire royal treasury undetected, or perhaps, the valiant knight whose prowess on the battlefield is unmatched by all. However, when the apocalypse strikes, you can only use what you have at your disposal, be that guns, baseball bats, your fists, or maybe, just maybe, a shovel. One young man who goes by the name of Darenzo has just had his world altered into one that is now the focal point of some sort of experiment. Just at the end of his shift at the skip site, a worldwide announcement was made, that not only changed Darenzo's life, but also the lives of all of the Earth's inhabitants. Can Darenzo survive and thrive in this changed world? Or will his growing madness best him? The answers to these questions can only be revealed with time. [Goal of 2 chapters per week, the only exceptions being announced breaks or emergencies] (The new cover art is a courtesy of the very kind and talented ssddx and was designed using the fanart cover of cthulupillar as the base.) This novel is a participant in The Writer's Pledge

8 261Directorate: Nationbuilding in Apocalypse
A nation is just a means of survival. Metro Manila fell within 5 months of the first report of cannibalism. Once a hyperurbanized region of 15 million inhabitants, it's been reduced to a dead, greenless shell. Most of the infected had since left to ravage the countryside. The central government was nowhere to be found. Among the survivors who clung to the few gardens and humble plots of arable land left, one of them finds evidence that the slaughter wasn't going to just end with the first wave. Without a nation and a wall of guns, everyone will die. Directorate is an original nationbuilding webnovel that focuses on the gradual rise to power of a select few individuals, and the subsequent unification of the survivors of a devastated Metro Manila. Releases targeted at every 1 to 3 weeks. If there are no chapter updates after 3 weeks, there will be a progress update. Number of releases targeted at a maximum of 100 chapters. Every 10-15 chapters, there will be a 1-month hiatus to let me plan for the next 10-15 chapters. Double releases have a not-insignificant-but-still-small chance of occurring.
