if you're talking about the disposeable heroes thread... I was actually taken by the idea, and that was the first piece of writing I have done outside of an srp in a long long time. it is also the first time a scene came to me and I just had to write it in a long time, so to me the thread has already more than proved its value... to me at least.An arena thread in the lounge?
Hmm...not sure how I feel about that.
It can help teach SRPers how to write action and badassery...but...beyond the value of having a tutorial for writing action...I detest arena threads...the pointless back and forth with no real goal to the chaotic melee...a battle scene without goals or stakes involved without dramatic momentum pushing it is just pointless violence...plus arena threads don't teach the two absolute most critical aspect of writing fights and battle scenes...the pacing is what makes it interesting and most important of all is that the good guy always wins (except when he's not supposed to yet).
