Well I guess I might as well enter my next entry to get the ball rolling!
My entry for Febuary will be 'The Vengeful Heart' ID#454861
This was my entry into the Dr. Aeon's 3rd challenge and I put lots of work into it. There were so many things I'd wished to do in this arc but had to compromise due to AE bugs. It wasn't even the original story I had in mind. But had to adhere what the challenge wanted which made it all feel forced.
That's some background on it, and I hope you guys get some enjoyment.
I'll toss out the arc I've done that's gotten the best response so far, "Against The WickerWork Khan!" #346904. It's a parallel dimension take on pre-existing game canon that's won a player award for custom design. And it's nice and short at only 3 missions.
I was hoping to see a theme this month, I'll figure out which one to enter later.

Bubba, there's no reason to make this complicated. If they want a theme that's cool and all. But it sort of defeats the purpose of taking off the previous rules. This way it's open to everyone without exception. Just hate to see people being excluded.

As mentioned in the original post; some months will have themes for the contests. However we have decided the first few will not to help get the ball rolling on the contest. Keep your eyes open for future months however; there will be themes.

Well, heck, why not. I'll toss in an oldie.
Between Love And Loyalty
@Cybernetic Hobo
ID 375932
Note that the last mission can get slightly finicky if you are using a damage aura or a debuff aura like Rise to the Challenge. I suggest turning those off when you reach that point of the mission. You'll know what I mean when you get there. At present, there isn't really another work-around.

Whatever you guys want is the way it should be! Guess I should read better. Sorry Bubbawheat, didn't mean to jump the gun on you there.
Alright, well I'll go ahead and submit A Clone of Your Own? #453091 Enjoy!
I'll give it a try!
One o'Clock Time Jump
Arc # 359532
@Major Deej
Modern day mixed with WWII drama! Time Travel! End of the World! Nazis! Enjoy!
I've been so busy that I completely forgot about this thread, but I'm glad to see I made it just in time! I'll submit the first of my "Galactic Protectorate" arcs, "The Galactic Protectorate - 01", Arc ID#47143.
It's designed for Level 40-50 Heroes or Villains, and from all of the feedback I've gotten on it I know the arc can be quite challenging. If it's possible, I would greatly appreciate it if your Supergroup could run the arc with a large team rather than solo. I've never really been able to get a large PUG together to run any AE arcs, so I'd really be interested in knowing if the group that appears in the arc is "fun and challenging", "difficult and frustrating", or something in-between for big teams. And of course, I'd like to know what you think of the storyline, too!
Whatever you decide to do, I look forward to the results of your February contest!
