Ah, I see. I will probably skip this one unless sci-fi also counts for things like traveling the multiverse. Sci-fi is a genre I am not experienced in and one that I don't enjoy as much as others.
Does it have to be a complete chapter (one shot) or a story in parts, and in the second case, if it is not finished or I want to make it longer, should I publish only the chapters I want? Even if the story is complete.
7853868 If it’s incomplete you may have points taken off of you’re total by the judges but a (One-shot) and a few chapters or a complete any and all of the above can count and work for entries!
Hey, you linked the wrong folder. The one you have there’s for the Period Piece from last contest.
Also, I wanted to ask about a specific character to make sure they qualify as a ‘villain’; Rolling Thunder. In my mind, she’s part of the Washouts, which directly antagonize Scootaloo and are ‘thwarted’ in an episode, so I feel like she should qualify alongside Lightning Dust, but I’d like to make sure.
7853875 Well, I like participating in these competitions since they (usually) gear towards my niche of Sundagio But yeah. The multiverse story I have in mind probably wouldn't have enough science to win. I still look forward to seeing what others make

So are you considering future settings to be BETTER 'sci-fi' than past settings?
I ask partly because it seems to me that sci-fi can happen in the present day, or even the past. ("The Thing!" "Invasion of the Body Snatchers!") and partly because Spyder seems worried about what is and isn't sci-fi.
If I ship Sunset Shimmer with Anon, or with Anonmare (Anonfilly grown up), will I be told that only MLP canon villains count for the contest so the story doesn't qualify?

If a little bit of science is involved then multiverse can count as a Sci-Fi story! (but don’t feel pressured to participate everytime.)

7853874
Should it have an ending or can it be left unfinished?
7853929
Having a complete story isn’t a must but it would be preferred.
7853898
👍
7853896
Fixed the folder link! And yeah I’d consider any of the washouts minor villains so they count!
7853983
Can I make Sunset Shimmer the villain of the story and the villainess the heroine?
7854284
Affirmative 👍

Hello. Can you help me repost the contest in the Hall of Contests group? Thank you.

Will do soon

Are crossovers with a sci-fi setting (e.g. Star Trek, Star Wars) allowed?
7856036
Sure as long as the main focus is sunset and her villain or ex villain lover!
So are you considering future settings to be BETTER 'sci-fi' than past settings?
I ask partly because it seems to me that sci-fi can happen in the present day, or even the past. ("The Thing!" "Invasion of the Body Snatchers!")
and partly because Spyder seems worried about what is and isn't sci-fi.
Also, how do you feel about AUs?
If I ship Sunset Shimmer with Anon, or with Anonmare (Anonfilly grown up), will I be told that only MLP canon villains count for the contest so the story doesn't qualify?
