comment
A Round Robin tradition at the Civilization Fanatics Forum, each Draw Your Own Story episode is a collaboratively-created comic, usually about the CF forum. The notoriously confusing and complex plot tends to involve the authors' self-insert characters combating a villain/seeking out an artifact who/which has incredible power. Lots of explosions and military hardware is usually involved. There is a massive supporting cast, most of which are characters imported from video games, TV shows, comics, literature, and historical and real life figures, resulting in a massive Mega Crossover and/or Anachronism Stew.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Also infamous for personality conflicts among the contributors (not so much nowadays) and frequent Series Hiatus.Yes, it has a Wiki. There have been 13 episodes so far, but unfortunately threads for episodes 1-9 have been deleted and live on only in memory.The available episodes include: DYOS 10 - a story of the Avatar Wars, where people's old forum avatars rebel against their former masters; DYOS 10.5 - a Sequel to the above; DYOS 11 - tells about the struggle against a mysterious Hacker who closes the Off-Topic subforum, thus denying the forum users their daily dose of flame wars. DYOS 12 - inspired by SOPA/PIPA, a Government Conspiracy shuts down most of the Internet.

Aborted Arc

comment
Aborted Arc: The series is littered with these. Contributors sometimes became inactive and left their side-plot unresolved, or they'd forgotten about a side-plot or simply didn't want to continue it. In an example of What Could Have Been, DaemonDD's Lucifer arc in DYOS XI would have provided a whole new act that brought together many of the story's "secondary" protagonists in a battle to save the universe. Ennui from the prolonged Hacker plot led him to drop it, and he has stated that he has no plans to continue the arc in future threads. Similarly, Kan' Sharuminar and Captain2 were working on a side story originally intended to carry over into DYOS 12; but with the former apparently quitting DYOS over Creator Backlash, this is unlikely to be resolved any time soon.

All Germans Are Nazis: Averted. The Germans fight as hard as anyone against the Space Nazis, and after Berlin falls to Hickten, the Bundeswehr reorganizes under the FWA. The Space Nazis are in fact originally Americans inferred to have bought into their fantasy a little too blindly. As Schäffer confesses to Krieger, they "don't know what Germany even means".
