No, not those kinds of spacebattles.
Spacebattles.com is a web forum, mainly focused on Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Military stuff, of interest for our purposes because it has a few popular boards:
- Versus Debates, where people use "logic", "math", and "common sense" (in quotation marks because Spacebattles logic in Vs Debates rarely resembles our Earth logic) to debate, say, whether the Enterprise could beat a Star Destroyer and if Superman could beat Goku.
- Questing and Roleplay, which we mention only so that we can say we already mentioned them, shut up.
- Creative Writing, the only reason we have this article.
CW is relevant to us mainly because it hosts a lot of fanfiction. A lot of fanfiction. Some of it even good, and in highly /tg/ relevant settings.
In particular, Messages for Dad and This Won't End Well, two high profile Warhammer 40k stories, originated there.
Also found on CW:
- A metric shitload of Worm fics, of wildly varying qualities, to the point that the mods made a subforum just for Wormfic, just so people could filter the damn things out.
- An "Original Fiction" subforum, for people with "original" works ( donut steel)
Besides Worm, there is a lot of ASoIAF stuff, and whatever's currently popular with that section of geekdom that likes action, and easy to write fanfic for (Naruto, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Marvel, DC, Mass Effect have all had their waves of unending fanfiction, although none were as truly omnipresent as Worm was, and still is), usually of marginally higher quality than can be found via the same means on fanfiction.net (in part due to the slightly older, more action-focused audience)
