Votes are in, and the winner by a clear enough margin is... Watashi!

I think its a good name, particularly if we make him an low-key anime fan like a few anons suggested.

Also, since we are most likely using the 5 sketches idea, we could have him say something along the lines of 2d being superior to 3d, and that the third dimension is a spook. Just an idea.

Either way, I'll try to clean up the chapter doc so that his characteristics are somewhat defined and coherent.

The next matter to decide will be the question he asks anon and how anon answer. Get any final submissions in for this cause there will be a Strawpoll up soon.

>>9080539
We'll aim to have everything included, unless there ends up being some suepermassive amount, which is unlikely.

Anything totally unrelated and/or exceptionally vulgar may not be automatically guaranteed though.

>>9080481
nice, didn't know that.

Im still yet to cast my own vote

Strawpoll for Stirner-god's name: https://strawpoll.com/4fff6gg

Get in and vote!

This is an interesting idea in favor of 'Ego'

>>9080104
Sounds good anon.

I've split the "How does the story arrive at its beginning?" section up (in Section Three of the planning doc), so that there is now a two fields, one specifically for the Prologue/introduction and one for the beginning of the main story, presumably where chapter one would begin.

Feel free to add your ideas/writing in the new field as you see fit. We can assume for now, unless anyone objects, that this will be the official plot for the Prologue/introduction.

Also, depending on how well this goes, the next chapter that's gets its own doc will be the DFW god

Stirner Chapter Doc is up!

https://docs.google.com/document/d/18qUc-Q9RwgUnfu30W2mfa3FxosUMkSE0PVKKXBqrz1I/edit?usp=sharing

The entire Stirner section of the planning Doc has moved here^^^^^

You can also find this link where the Stirner section used to be

We are going to be finalizing all the details for the chapter. As soon as this is done the actual WRITING can commence (see this post: >>9076216 for further explanation).

So if you have any final ideas to submit for this chapter, get them in NOW.

We will start with the name (pic related). Either in this thread or in the new Stirner doc, make your choice for the gods name known.

spoopy

>>9078752
nice

>>9078564
Ah, as you were then anon. It is appreciated.

The doc will hopefully simplify a little as we start to narrow in on specific chapters.

**Reminder to all that the Stirner-chapter doc is coming this afternoon**

>>9078553
Im open to anything that helps organise it, but as far as I could tell all you did was remove the headings?

>>9078524

I dunno but I have a feeling its the same autismo as usual. Anyway I reset the doc to its state half an hour ago. Apologies if anyone added anything since then

: /

>>9076758
aware anon, thats what i was doing. i think my computer was just too shit to replace that many characters at once, if you can believe it

Also tomorrow we will try to finalize some of the details for the Stirner god, such as the name and characteristics etc, so get your suggestions on the doc if you want them to be considered

Small update regarding the next stage of writing:

Im putting together a seperate doc for the Stirner chapter. Once this is up, all discussion for this chapter will move to this doc. The writing will be as collaborative as it needs to be.

Basically, once we have the basic plot, style and theme of chapter agreed upon, anons can submit as much written content as they want (be it a paragraph or 10 pages). Once it looks like there is enough writing, we can combine the submissions together with the minimum amount of extra words/context required to create something somewhat coherent.

If this works for the stirner chapter, we can try doing the other chapters the same way. We will probably put a limit on the amount of chapters we work on simultaneously, as each will require its own google doc.

Also, thank you to whoever changed the o's back. It was crashing my tab every time I tried.

>>9074337
It is much appreciated anon. Ideas can take longer than writing in a lot of cases, so anyone who can produce them at a high rate is very valuable.

>>9073018
Definitely an option. A prologue could help establish the premise and tone. Or we could simply jump straight into the 'story'. This will probably be one of the later things that gets decided

>>9072290
>>9073349

Another anon brought up the idea of every chapter having its own style in some way. Having Diogenes spoofing Plato dialogue during his chapter is a great idea. I'll at it to the doc soon if no one has.

>>9073550
Nice, im sure it would fit perfectly somewhere

>>9072173
forgot name

>>9071520

>>9071741

nice

Here's something anyone could have a go at. It would be pretty easy and possibly quite hilarious if we end up using it. We can just pick the best/funniest one.

(its for the Stirner-god chapter, in reference to the famous sketch, btw)

Id say we should be ok then. I guess we should be so lucky that the novel gets around enough for anyone to formally complain about it anyway.

Thinking of adding a space to contribute names for the "author", or to discuss how we might otherwise go about represting authorship

Also it took a surprisingly long time to change all the 'da's back to 'the'

>>9070427
>>9070478

The first question is how close to the original painting can we legally go?

Could determine which rout we take

>>9070104
>>9070132

It looks like it would be sick overlaid,

but yeah, it would have to be redrawn completely for it to work


I guess we have to options:

redraw and overlay it

or just make our own version of the painting

>>9070058
Hmm...

The background for the original isnt overly complex

we could possibly replicate somehow? Or use something similar?

>>9069509
Nice anon. added a name suggestion + other stuff
