@AngusEcrivain -- if anything, this smackdown has broadened my knowledge of scifi genres. Off to read about soft scifi and cyber punk. Haha!

Wow, hard round. Glad I'm judging now =]

Ok help a girl out - even after reading the forbidden planet write up on nano punk I still can't figure out what it is really about LOL @ForbiddenPlanet @AngusEcrivain

Reply Report

hahaa... I sent him a message last night about it, @GenXblogger ....looks like we're all in the same boat ;)

Reply Report

My other choice is green punk which I find really boring LOL. I'm hoping nanopunk turns out to be something really cool HA @parishsp

Reply Report

I think I'm actually in the water, not enlightened enough to get in the boat yet I'm afraid. @parishsp

One of my choices does not have a definition, so I'm going to take it in the literal sense and create cyborg werewolves @GenXblogger

Reply Report

@GenXblogger at its most basic... nanopunk is about technologically enhanced beings... @nikayaya my apologies for the lack of definition... i'll fix that shortly...

Reply Report

Don't you like the idea of cyborg werewolves? I can add robotic vampires? They shimmer in the sun! But only when polished @AngusEcrivain

Reply Report

LMAO.... make sure their eyes change color... oooh and if they can impregnate humans that would help too

Reply Report

Retina change according to gas levels, check

full anatomy with ability to replicate with emo human breeder, check @JoeTite

Reply Report

sounds like a story to me..... can they blend in in high school?

Reply Report

No, of course not! They stand out as the shiniest, most recent version of the Meyerbot 2000. Blending is so last century and humanoid. @JoeTite

Reply Report

@nikayaya You're way ahead of me at this point ;) haha. Any tips as to how to write a good "soft scifi" story that includes brain blasts are more than welcome!

Reply Report

@nikayaya

haha, I do... sounds like there's definitely potential for Sci-Fi Horror with that :)

Reply Report

Brain basts? Like loss of consciousness or spurts of intelligence? I would fathom a brain blast that allows you to redo regrets might be interesting, you know, the chance to do it wrong twice and change the fiber of your existence @parishsp

Why thank you, I think my idea is formed. Just don't expect great literature, the last horror movie I watched was night of the living dead, in 1984! I'm not much of a horror buff so I wouldn't expect scary, but I'll still give I my all @AngusEcrivain

Reply Report

@nikayaya -- I think more along the lines of being able to kill someone via a thought/getting into their head/telekinesis? Not sure yet. Sure could use a spurt of intelligence right about now ;) haha... or a spurt of creativity. Will hopefully have a more concrete idea before too long.

Reply Report

@parishsp That's a great idea!!!! You should totally write a story about concrete!!

Reply Report

@JoeTite -- I had to read that twice to understand it, but once I did, I laughed :)

@parishsp Glad I could help :p

SMH. This is turning out wonderfully funny. Started out as a little contest and now the finale is a little hard and fun one. Reminds me of something my brother said the other day:

In school : 3+3=6

For homework : (3+3+4x6-3)/2= ?

For exam : Tom has 7 oranges and six apples. He is travelling at a speed of 70km/h. Calculate the mass of the sun if he has a brother and two sisters.
