Map of Scratchia - ARTISTS AND WRITERS NEEDED!

I'm planning on making a map of Scratch, with a history to go along with it!
http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/ee477/schnrfl/scratch.jpg
CLICK TO ENLARGE!

There'll be 2 countries - the Main Site and the Forums divided into states/provinces like Top Viewed, Curated Projects, Misc, and Requests.

Then, we'll draw the map - the outline first, then the details - divided into the popularity of each section, etc.

Also, the writers will write the history, and maybe some fiction to go along with it.

So, who's up?

Artists

IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE!

Re: Map of Scratchia - ARTISTS AND WRITERS NEEDED!

I reckon misc. should go in ???.

Because it's connected to minecraft, the forums and the main site and also has a sea of random stuff flowing into it.

Re: Map of Scratchia - ARTISTS AND WRITERS NEEDED!

I'll be happy to worldbuild.

I can do history, festivals, famous names and such.

Eh, here's a sample of my work.

Famous Names
Kaj is noted as causing mass hysteria and panic. Little is known about her, as when a team of crack Banhammer Knights(commonly known as moderators and shortened to simply mods) hunted her down, she simply disappeared into nowhere. She is rumoured to be a conman as her method of attacking Scratch was through deceit.

Documents left behind at her hastily abandoned camp reveal most of what we know about her. She was a regular citizen of scratch who had one dream:to create a name for herself. When several projects of hers flopped badly, she turned to crime.

She assumed an alias and claimed that she had a horde of warriors ready to invade Scratch, and would "hack everyone's accounts". Frantic users flooded the Scratch team with queries, and they were forced to take action.

The Order of the Banhammer was summoned to be on guard for a possible invasion, and a small task force was discreetly formed to assassinate her. However, they failed every time.

Eventually, the Scratch team released a public message the the hordes did not exist, in an attempt to use psychological warfare against Kaj. It worked, and Kaj retreated.

Sightings of Kaj have been reported frequently in other countries, though all of them are hoaxes. The infamous ruse has been widely praised as a fine example of a confidence game, and mothers have taken to warning their children to "Stop crying or Kaj will hack you". The legend of Kaj persists, though the Scratch team suspect that is is yet another attempt to cause panic by Kaj or an accomplice, and have been quick to publicly denounce the myth.

The recent disappearance of a well known Scratcher known as "Sprite_Master" briefly resurrected the Kaj legend, but Sprite_Master has made a public statement that it was a prank.

Re: Map of Scratchia - ARTISTS AND WRITERS NEEDED!

THIS IS A WORK OF COMPLETE FICTION
After Kaj's rein ended, he was banned from the lands of Scratch.
But, it turns out, Kaj had more than one ip adress.
He logged on, and unleashed a fury of ponies, trolls, and much more.
Misc. didn't care! PONIES WERE WONDERFUL!
Then Servine cam up with the idea to fight ponies with Pokemon. Ponies won.

...
I dont know what to do next  tongue

Re: Map of Scratchia - ARTISTS AND WRITERS NEEDED!

I got some lore:

4 Years ago scratch was a tall mountain, waiting to be conquered. Andresmh and Lightnin', 2 brothers, decided to conquer that mountain. They succeded and made the village of scratch. Pretty soon, they needed more space so they flattened the land with their mighty editing skills and separated scratch into 2 countries; Main Site, and Forums. Scratch got ever more populated they couldn't do they work by themselves. So they founded the Banhammer Knights that smite(ban) people who spam to much. Scratch grew so big they had to hire more Knights! And that's how scratch was founded.


It's my birthday. Deal with it.

Re: Map of Scratchia - ARTISTS AND WRITERS NEEDED!

I can right lore.

Popularity Wars:
Currently, the popualarity wars are going on. Scrachers are complain that they dont have enough views and they dont go on the front page. They have been flaming about it and the mods are doing their best to get rid of it. We dont know how long this can last....


It's my birthday. Deal with it.

Maybe Scratch should be in MIT, like Scratch is a state, and MIT is the country

LOL, When I saw the thread title, I though 'Scratchia, isn't that my ex-minecraft server?'  tongue


Yeah, I'm mostly inactive.  I check in once in a while though.  If you want to contact me, I have a contact form at my website, http://escratch.org

Re: Map of Scratchia - ARTISTS AND WRITERS NEEDED!

I want to write about these two topics and the weird flame war that was occuring with in both of them at the same time, but I need help coming up with ideas.

http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic … 88#p432288
The other one was in suggestions with some crazy guy saying that if you use improper grammar you get permabanned and that we should add interrogation rooms that you can't get out of, but I can't find it.
