Recommended Posts

So I was reading the newspaper the Canadian @Holiday, obviously completely ignoring any article that didn't start with "[Contest]". I wanted the Stryker M2, and if I wanted to be a Stryker in battles, then . But why work hard for the crystals when you can just win a contest and get them, right? I was @II.Born.To.Win.Il, born to be a @Savage @LegendaryChampion.

So I looked through the various @ReporterContests but was pretty disappointed with what I found. "The War Room"? Please, if I had the @True_Skills to do those questions I wouldn't have gone to school that @sunny_morning. "What Map"?! Oh, let's see, there's only, like, ten billion @Maximillions maps with that exact same house prop, AND I'M NOT GOING TO LOOK THROUGH ALL OF THEM. I'm not a @MapMaster. And "Demolition is my Mission"? What a joke. Let's work on actually getting 30 Thunder kills in a single game first, then we'll talk about the timing. Don't even get me started on the parkour contest. Who thought that to @PracticeParkourStunt was fun. Why did the @Contestmaker make all these challenges that require actual @Skills.Now? It's way @2muchzwork. I don't stand a chance against these motivated and hardworking youngsters that plague the forum these days. So yeah, @Me-So-Sad, until I made @The-Discovery. A writing contest! Oh, what luck! Finally something that doesn't require any actual effort and will make my lazy unproductive self @Remaine satisfied!

 

Wait, a twist?! You're saying I have to search up every word in the members search bar to find member names?

 

How fun. Eh, @WhyTheHellNot. I forgive the Reporters. After all, @We.Are.Brotherss, and it's @ALL.ABOUT.GAMES!

Isn't there an unwritten rule that former staff members can't take part in Newspaper contests...?

My entry: How I met my best friend.

 

     I met my best @Friend in my first battle, which was in the cross map. I bought Railgun as soon as I ranked up because I liked the idea to attack other tanks from a @Safe distance, in other words, being a camper. I was behind @One of the little walls, in the corner of the map. I tried to @Troll a guy, killing him before anything else. He was a @Noob Wasp Firebird which didn't know @How to turn his turret. It was fun every time I killed him because he couldn't attack me as a low-ranged weapon. He left @The battle, maybe he was tired.

    Later on, he joined the same battle, the one I was ruling. I was very confident of being able to troll him again, as I improved my skills pretty fast. I was @Wrong. He became @Dangerous, as he learned how to turn his turret, and some tricks more. @Maybe @Someone gave him advice in how to @Play @Better, or he was pretending to @Be a newbie. He started to use the same tank I had in that moment (Hunter with Railgun), and we would do 1 1 if we met in the battle, even if some of us were under fire.

    Both of we fought hard, trying to use every possible opportunity in the battle to overcome each other. We both were the best players in that battle, and finally, the battle ended. We got high K/D ratios, and then we left. The days , and I didn't still have a best friend.

I though in @bibou, the @Skilled guy I met in that battle. I sent him a badge with a message (as I needed a better rank to communicate using the chat), asking if he wanted to be my friend. The only badge I have in my profile is the badge he sent me, which says: yes!

My Entry:

The story of

 

There once was a @HeRo named . He was flying through the @Galaxy when he was amazed by the . However, there was @Someone making an evil @Monster inside. The @Monster was @InSanely powerful and could @KILL any tank. The monster's name was @DeathByBoss. So then, revealed his secret identity: @Godmode_ON. He then used the power of @Devil paint and rank-defying m3s to challenge the sneaky @Someone inside, who's name was @Scientist. The mighty @Godmode_ON quickly laid waste to the evil @Scientist. In rage, @DeathByBoss attacked the pure-hearted @Godmode_ON with all his @Killer m1 could do. Bracing himself, the @HeRo said his last wishes. He felt a little thunk on his hull. He looked up to feel his health bar telling him only 1% of his health was damaged. He had once thought the health bar was only there to ruin screenshots, but knowing the @Monster's was useless against him provided him with a whole new level of confidence. He shot @DeathByBoss once with his m4 thunder, and the impact was so violent, the 's barrel was bent. In victory, our hero spoke his improvised catchphrase: Looks like your evil plan just got twisted!! Using his secret weapon, @Godmode_ON unleashed the mighty @Mammy m0 on @DeathByBoss. The evil @Monster faded into nothingness. Then @Godmode_ON, the mighty @Super @Tanker, dropped 3 @GoldBoxes in celebration. Then a few moments later, @DeathByBoss spawned next to him. It seemed like he was destined to annoy forever.

The End...

 

(Do i get extra points for shaming myself??)

(Also, for some reason, the tankers and aren't showing up in the story as members)

(Lesson learned: save for m2 railgun death)

(none of these after notes are part of story or word count btw)

i like it :D good story

The only people excluded from the Newspaper contests are the current Newspaper reporters themselves. Ex-reporters that are no longer linked to the Newspaper in any way can take part in the contests. The status they previously held won't give them any type of advantage over other participants when it comes to judging.

Version without nicknames:

Once there was a family which lived in an old house in a village of Turkey. There were four members in this family. The 14 year old underaged boy, Ali, his father, his mommy and a cute young sister. Unfortunately Ali's father's leg had Broken in a motorbike accident, so Ali had to do a lot of work to earn a small amount of money. He had done various jobs but he was getting very small pay. The morning air filled Ali’s lungs but the next moment his mother yelled, “Come for your breakfast and then go and earn some money.”
One day he was walking on a snowy street and was very thoughtful that how to get a better job because he wanted much money for the treatment of his daddy. Suddenly Ali had an idea! He would go and work at a petrol pump.
Next day Ali went to petrol pump. He asked the manager how much money he would get? “2 hundred Turkish lira”, the manager said. “Okay, I am ready,” Ali said. “Then you have to come from next week."
He started working there. This was not very easy work to do. Sometimes he had to face many problems and also had to work overtime occasionally, but the work he did was great. At the end of month he got 250 lira instead of 200. Those extra 50 was given by manager because he worked very hardly. He bought some flour and other foodstuff for his family. After five months he realized that he had saved enough money to get treatment for his father’s broken leg.
Soon his father could walk with the help of a plastic walker, but he had a little bit pain in his leg. His father's doctor, doctor Dean said, “Bring your father on the first Monday of every month.” Finally his father was able to walk Without panic! And afterwards they all were happy.

Cutting straight to the point, they became reporters once for a reason - their writing skills are at a whole new level. It takes the wind right out of the sails for a casual participant. But it would be unfair to bar ex-staff from contests. So, meh. I'm not happy with the situation, but I don't have any right to complain either. I think there's a bit of jealousy deep down inside of me that's egging me on to say this, but I'm willing to forgive myself because I'm regretfully human. There's also a part of me that speaks up when I see tilted scales. I'd like to acknowledge that here as well.
