Unofficial collaboration for conditions

White spiral notebook on black wooden table by Kelly Sikkema

Notes

If the symptoms list gets too long, I'll be making more tabs on the spreadsheet so there will be more conditions to write. Feel free to write as many conditions as you want / can. Remember, nothing is worth burn out!

A silly challenge idea has come to my head while chatting in discord. What if, and hear me out, each one of us says a condition symptom and then, once WE starts, we all write a condition based on such symptoms to see how much a condition can differ while having the same base.

You fools, you absolutely fools, you have allowed me stay with that idea, so I have now expanded and created a form and a spreadsheet for it cuz I have no autocontrol.

Okay but what do I have to do?

— you may be asking

Well, on top this article, right under the title and breadcrumbs, you might have spotted a bunch of "tabs", which are in thruth buttons (thanks Stormbril cuz this tab css cuz I don't get tired of how awesome this is). In there, you'll find three things:

• Suggest a symptom! - A form where you can suggest a symptom (as its name says). While I won't look at it too much, I ask you to only submit one symptom to avoid having a long list. This form will accept suggestions till WE starts with the WorldAnvil stream the 1 of december (or soonest moment I can go stop it).
• Spreadsheet in here! - Well, a spreadsheet! It is me who is doing this, of course I'm doing a spreadsheet. In here, you'll see the symptoms that the form has gotten and a space to add your name next to a place to add your article link. Attention! Articles must be done during World Ember to be accepted!
• What's this article about? - It is what you currently are reading! In case you need to look at it again.

Please let me know if this all make sense cuz I'm an exhausted pidgeon that's just mindless going thru life. Also good luck with the articles! I hope you like this shenanigans cuz I absolutely love doing them and most worlds need more conditions. I will be reading all articles but I won't promise doing anything else.

End

It is now done! The symptom have been suggested and the conditions written! Its been hella fun and I hope you think the same! Now, here are the articles of everyone who participated, divided into group of symptoms.
