The Scary Atton Appreciation Society

Cha-cha-cha-changes...

Hello, Scary Atton Society! Today marks the Society's one year anniversary! I've been thinking hard about the future of the Society. I love our little niche fandom even though it's been very quiet of late. Some may not understand where we're coming from with the whole Scary thing, but I think the quality of work in our gallery speaks for itself. The submissions from our members have been consistently top-notch, which is why, even though they come in less frequently now, I feel it is worth it to keep the club operating. Unfortunately, due to a credit shortage, prizes aren't possible so the official challenges will have to be put on hiatus for the time being. We'll still have the informal mini-challenges, though, which seem to be more popular anyway.

That's all for now. A reminder that the current mini-challenge "Toys" is open. As ever, if you have questions, comments or suggestions, please let me know!

About the Scary Atton Appreciation Society


Do you love your Atton on the scary, angsty, tortured, pervy or just plain psychotic side? Been a bit afraid to express it? No more! This is the club for you, my friend. Here we celebrate the Jaq inside of our favorite scoundrel.

FAQ excerpt:
1. How scary is too scary? As long as it falls within DA guidelines, that is entirely up to the artist or writer. Use common sense, please. There are some topics that would offend even Scary Atton, and the mods do reserve the right to reject those.

2. How scary is scary enough? If you imagine the alignment scale from the game, everything from the middle (grey) to the bottom (dark) is fair game. There doesn't have to be blood, killing or death for it to be Scary Atton. Angst and moral ambiguity are just fine. As our description indicates, scary, angsty, tortured, pervy or just plain psychotic all fall under the umbrella term "Scary Atton".

To join, add us to your watch list, it's that simple. We'd be grateful if you would display our avatar in your journal, but it's not required.

Members are welcome and encouraged to submit art or fanfics to the gallery. Just send us a note with a link to your work.

Reminder: DA policy states that club gallery submissions are not to be faved. Please support our artists and writers and visit the original to comment and fav.

Challenges

Hmm, let's see, what's in Scary Atton's closet? Lightsaber, blaster, knife, sedative, neural disruptor, whips... I'm not sure what that is, hehe. Anyway, the theme for the mini-challenge is Toys. Give us something featuring Atton and a weapon, tool or device. A sketch, a painting, a drabble, a story or any combination or variation thereof, set in any time frame you choose.

Remember, no voting or pressure with mini-challenges. It's all about fun, so let your imagination go wild. The mini-challenge will run until the next one, heh. How's that for a flexible deadline?

Ok, have you guys had the problem I did? I've gone through three graphics cards and Kotor 2 won't work. Help?

Vista 32

:iconscaryatton:
There is a Vista patch here: [link]

After that's installed, right-click the KotOR icon, select "properties", then "compatibility". Choose "Run this program in Windows XP SP2".

You can try just changing compatibility mode first and that might work. I installed the patch then set the compatibility mode, and was able to run it.

Thank you!!! I'll try that when I get a chance.

Gha! This is so frustrating! Switched computers and the new keyboard is too awkward for me to type too much on - all my fics are on hold! I have the half finished entry for the last mini challenge waiting in the wings and then this one comes up and I am surrounded by plot bunnies and unable to do anything about them!! GAHHHAAA!!

*sobs*

I'll be getting a new USB keyboard soon! I must! :(
:iconscaryatton:
Oh no! I hate my new keyboard, too. Herd those plot bunnies into a force cage and keep 'em there. :evillaugh:

We look forward to seeing yer stuffs when you get the techno-fail sorted out! :D

Sweet stuff!

Typical, not only do I find this place in time to miss the last challenge, but also when this place seems to be quieting down a little. Boo!

Eh, I have some ideas for fics anyway, possibly some art too if I can draw my favourite scoundrel well enough for me to be happy to submit it. I'll send them this way anyway, quite or not.

Yay for Atton! And a more timid yay for scary Atton!
:iconscaryatton:
Oh, there will be future challenges, don't worry! :D We're just doing some tweaking to see what the members want as far as frequency.

We would love to post your stuff! Just send us a link via note when you're ready to submit something.
