-
A group of strangers are invited on a cruise and one by one they all start to die but who is behind it?

I feel kind of weird for saying this lol but the 2nd option with people dying off seems interesting. It just feels like there’s more at stake. The 1st one sounds like a who-dun-it which can be very interesting too if done well.

I’m Australian and I use mum. I don’t care if my stories are set in the US . At least I can keep it consistent. It’s one thing to stick to mom, but I’d feel weird spelling things such as neighbour as neighbor, organisation as organization etc

I like the second one too

Whereas, I’m the opposite. I prefer using British English, but if the setting calls for it then I’ll use the other. I guess my profession helps me use both (situation dependent).
Oh, well, it’s still each to their own, so long as the grammar is correct either way.

- Long Episodes but not many
- short episodes but loads of them

Well, actually, medium length, and about 5 to 20 episodes depending on the story.

On average my stories are about 4000 lines of code per episode so RIP xD

Since it’s a contest entry, I think you should make the first episode 15 minutes as maximum. You can make it longer as the story goes on, especially starting from episode 3.
I say this because some people do click out of a story if it has long chapters, and that hurts your retention.

I admit that I have done this to a couple of stories. I try not to and I had felt bad doing it, but time factors into it for me. If the story captivates my attention then I don’t notice the length much. Though if it doesn’t and the chapters are really long, then it’s possible that I won’t read past the first.
