<a href=http://www.nma-fallout.com>No Mutants Allowed</a> is running <a href=http://www.nma-fallout.com/article.php?id=40962>a contest</a> for all Fallout fans dissatisfied with Bethesda's justification of how the <A href=http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Brotherhood_of_Steel>Brotherhood of Steel</a> ended up on the East Coast. Now it's your time to write a better version!
<br>
<blockquote>We at NMA invite you to don your creative hat and present your own vision of the Brotherhood, where they are now and how they got there. Your assignment is to write your own version of this story, to tell it the way you would want it to be told, to set the Brotherhood up for the game you would want to play.
<br>
<br>
Your entry must be centred on the premise that the Brotherhood of Steel, or some group using their name and trappings, are operating on the East Coast. Who are they? What do they represent? What's their history, what state do we find them in, what's their agenda? We're looking for stories that are ambitious, well-considered, well-written, consistent and believable.
<br>
<br>
All surrounding details are mutable. You can but do not have to refer to other aspects of the setting and plot of Fallout 3 that have been revealed or hinted at, or try to guess at undisclosed plot points. You can frame your piece however you like, but don't forget about the content.</blockquote>
<br>
The winner will get a poster-sized print of one of the art pieces by Defonten, which are often mistaken for actual Fallout 3 concept art. You can read more about the contest <a href=http://www.nma-fallout.com/article.php?id=40962>here</a>.

Beth won't like this (not that they can do anything about it), as it's going to make them look like fools when someone writes something better than what the idiots in Maryland have (and someone will manage, I'm sure).

The only way they could save face would be by saying "yes, that is actually better... we'll use it" or something... but that's also tricky, because I'm sure they all have pride or some other gay shit that would prevent them from saying that the public does a better job than them/their writers are 2nd rate/don't know shit about Fallout canon.

No Mutants Allowed is running a contest for all Fallout fans dissatisfied with Bethesda's justification of how the Brotherhood of Steel ended up on the East Coast.

The holy and wise paladins of The Brotherhood of Steel looked to the East Coast and saw the Great Mutants amassing in huge numbers. It was then that the Wise Paladin rose up from his Great Throne of Steel and shouted in a courageous voice:

PLANE TICKETS, BITCH!

Honestly, this challenge is a huge slap to Bethesda's face. It's like saying "you fucking suck; come on, guys, let's show everyone that even we can one-up them".

:lol:

I'm wondering if Bethesda actually has writers, or if the janitor helps them out in his free time...

I would definitly include katanas and shields for the BOS, and they would all be haunted by a dragon which is pretty legendary and the dragon is like the leader of the new FIV bandwagon. The east coast BOS came from the west coast but they went through a portal instead of walking the whole way.

What do you guys think so far?

Yes, that's surely possible. It's not like we have legions of excellent writers hanging in the back, a lot of the guys with interesting stuff to say and/or good writing, like 4too or Roshambo, are currently gone or inactive.

But considering how much criticism we heaped on the profile, we'd better damn well be able to type up an alternative. Else we are indeed nothing more than the bunch of whino xenophobes people paint us to be.

I was looking at the "Cafe of Broken Dreams" concept art... That's how the Power Armor should have looked like for Fallout 3...

The cloud was still growing in the distance and Matt started sweating. As the shockwave came at him, he realized he was doomed. His finger pulled the trigger and he started screaming. Green bolts of molten plasma plunged into the massive wave of destruction, but to no avail. The last thing Matt saw was a wall of dust, carrying what looked like sides of buildings, huge chunks of rock, boulders and then everything went black. Below, Jenny sat down in a corner of the entry hall and started sobbing.

And so it began...the journey to the EAST.


Jenny was a young girl with an ugly face and a boy body but she was considered grade A meat in the wasteland. She got up from her bed saying her daily prays to Tupac god of the west as she normally does. Just as she was about to leave her room a giant man with a little midget on its back kicked the door down and put a black bag over jennies head and then shoved his dick into her butt and all she could do was scream in pain...or estacy?

When she woke up she was on the east coast with a bunch of medieval knights standing in front of the WHite House in washington DC but it was pretty much ruined. She didn't exactly know how she got to the east coast but it didn't matter because there was a super mutant the height of 20 feet running towards the band of paladins and the leader who was a rightous leader of the group stood in front of the group and unsheathed his blade and told the mutant to come. The mutant ran faster and was coming straight towards the rightous paladin and the paladin started to sweat beads cause the pause button wasn't working on his keyboard.

Jenny heard a loud rumble off into the distance a something on a wheelchair hit is nitro boost and was coming at her at like 1000 feet per second but then he stopped like 2 feet in front of her. He was a man with no arms or legs and was also missing an upper lip, as he was looking at jenny he started to drool and boner a couple feet long started to come out his zipper on his shorts. His name was Kingston and he looked at the running mutant and shot a mind bullet at the mutant and the mutants head exploded into and god blood all over everyone.

Jenny and kingston then made sweat love thoguh they didn't want to but they felt compelled to like...someone was making them have sex. THen when they heard the voice of Liam Neilson talking about the pyshcology of sex as the narrator.

Time passes...

The BOS of the east coast find out that Jennies father is Liam Neilson but he was the creator of the new super virus called HIV. Liam Neilson scouraged the wasteland with his congoid mutants in search of the east coast BOS faction to no avail.

The east coast BOS has two choices ahead of them to draw the wasteland together and in one voice say "We will not go silently into the night...WE will live on. Today is our...INdependence Day" or they could murrder everyone in the wasteland in search of the hidden relic of Biggie Smalls and unite the west and east coast together to kill Liam Neilson too. The choice is yours.

Insert Title Here RPG Wokedex Codex Year of the Donut I'm very into cock and ball torture
Vault Brother who was Vault Dweller his brother was one day near the East Coast that was a trader town where was called Brothertown where Brotherhood was born and Vault Brother too. Vault Brother was smaller than Vault Brother so he couldn't join the Brotherhood of Steel, so he stayed at the East Coast and stayed. Vault Brother was practicisng so he coukd one day do it like Vault Dweller and get likes become into Brotherhood of Steel and that is time when it happened when nuclear warheads came down Brothertown and killed people in Brothertown and brahmin too and more people.

The nuclear warheads and mutants came and killed people in Brothertown and everywhere else at the East Coast and people said really loud "Help use, somebody soon!" and Vault Brother heard it so he went. Vault Brother travelled fast to where loud sounds come from to help them out there. They said all together "Help, Vault Brother! We are hurting!" and Vault Brother said back "I will help you if your hurting" and Rain Strife out fire and nuclear clouds and killed mutants and bandaided people to health and talked to rats. Then Vault Brother yelled out real loud "Mutants, stop, or I make you stop!" and founded "Brotherhood of Teal" to fight them better.

And then messenger came from Brotherhood of Steel and there was hostile takeover.
