So, I was thinking, why don't we do one of these contests where I'll give you a theme and you write a paragraph or two on it?

Yeah, this does sound like PurringThunder's little contest, doesn't it? Maybe I should add something different to give it an edge.

Now, you must make it sound as realistic and complicated as possible, using a thesaurus. What I mean by this is say if I give you a topic like water, you must make a paragraph on it, and use as many words from a thesaurus that are as complicated as you can get. I'll go grab a paragraph to show you what I mean.

Water

The water, at the top it is spumous, a chalky, creamy colour. It is shallow, depthless, but still exceedingly cold on your smooth, elegant feet. As you move further in, however, the water nonchalantly reaches your ankles, thighs, knees, hips, chest, then soon you're off the soft sand below you and you're having to rely on those natural swimming skills mother taught you when you were inexperienced, when you were a youth. Suddenly, by surprise, you flip around in the water, your head diving headfirst, instantaneously into that cold, hideous water that wanted to suck you in.

Well, that wasn't the best example, but, yeah, you get me, right? Most people, apart from hissey, and maybe tai (:p) wouldn't use a lot of these words, but yeah, the winner will get 10 robux and i'll help them collab on any RP of their choice, without taking credit.

so, who's up for it? if there is less than 3 joiners I will not give out the robux prize, but i'll give out the collab prize.

Making it as complicated as possible doesn't make it a good paragraph.

People will start writing like the books Ulsses and Finnegans Wake, which will make your want to rip your eyes out of their sockets.

Count me in, as well.
But I'm not using a thesaurus. I'm using my brain.

Oh, and
"Making it as complicated as possible doesn't make it a good paragraph."
I agree with this.
I say we should use good words, sure, instead of the ones that are a bit overused, but not so much that no one understands what the hell you're saying.

I agree with purr. It should be good but also complicated (;
