It's not terrible, but it doesn't do a very good job of describing 418 from the perspective of an American governmental organization. EDIT: Even if this was written from a 90s perspective, it doesn't excuse the fact that it just feels like a rewrite of the SCP format.
It's a shame. 418 is one of my favorite Series I's, but I can't claim that you did it justice.
Actually, this one was written in 1998, well after the UIU lost most of its prestige in the FBI. For all the casefiles, the first number is the year they were identified.
Giving bearhugs to the unsuspecting since 1872.
I like it, but I think some of the information is too accurate for an organization that is underfunded, understaffed and regularly obstructed (I suppose) by The Foundation's misinformation procedures.
Is this article using another interpretation of the UIU, one in which they aren't completely outclassed?
Despite how neatly this is written, I dislike 418 a lot. And all the good writing can't save from a skip rewritten a different way. -1
I do not like the idea of taking an SCP object and rewriting it to fit another GOI format without bringing anything new to the table. It just feels so….lazy. The only part that I found interesting was the part about it being a hit man, and even then I feel like it could have been taken farther and could have gone to a more interesting place than was done here.
Sorry, but I gotta go with a -1 on this.
This was a required element for the GOI Contest to help establish the GOI Formats. At least one GOI format for each team needed to adapt a mainlist SCP into some GOI format.
