Are there already rules for where we can submit fanfics / art / stuff?

Yeah, the rules are currently going through review but all is looking good. Thanks to Night Shadow for the incredibly good work :)

Also, I'm still waiting to hear back from Konami about the Official Suikoden Facebook FanPage. They informed me that I have not been forgotten about but sometimes these things take time. That was 2 months ago but for all I know it could take 2 years lol

So, if I hear nothing from them in the next week or two then I will probably make a group page on facebook for Suikoden Day itself.


All details will be posted here, as well as the SUIKODEN DAY 2011 Facebook event page ^^

It'd be funny if 540 joined...ya know...the total number of Stars of Destiny between Suikoden I through V? Excluding Tactics and Tierkreis.

I have finished making a lot of fanarts, should I submit them in facebook or this site?
Audiences want more than logic.

Excellent!

If we dont get Konami's Official Suikoden fanpage shortly then I will be creating a Suikoden Day page on Facebook where everyone can submit their material.

Well, as for me, I am creating video walkthroughs for all of the bosses of Suikoden II and posting them to YouTube. This works for me especially cause I don't write fanfiction and I couldn't draw a stickman the same way twice. Mine differ from the others on YouTube because I add spoken commentary to the fight with my headset.

I started in Mid Oct. and hope to have them all finished by Dec 15. Though progress is slow due to my surgery and how hard it is to make a coherent video while taking the pain meds I am on. I have Mist Shade through Pest Rat done already, and I will post the links on the Suikoden Day page by sometime round the 15th.
