Size Riot Trivia

Thematic

There are two stories named "Anniversary" (GrowthJuly18 and GiantJuly19), two stories named "Symbiotic" (CruelJan18 and GentleApril20), and two stories named "Happy Ending" (Cocktober19 and MyHeavenOct20).

Hubris

The contest was started when Aborigen attempted to write a story as cruel as Nyx's work. He achieved this in CruelJan18, and Nyx went on to win GentleApril18.

Subterfuge

In early contests, writers were encouraged to submit two or three stories to provide more reading material. Later, when the contests were more popular, a few writers wrote under additional pseudonyms to submit additional work.

Best Intentions

About two-thirds of all people who signed up for each contest ended up producing a story on time.

Dedication

Taedis was the only writer who signed up for and completed every single contest.

Big Money, Big Prizes

Early on in the contest, someone in Singapore offered to support the contest with a large cash prize. Aborigen didn't think that would have a good effect on the contest, which was meant to build writing skills.

I Could Do That

Another online user attempted to start a contest between the Size Riot contests. The first one was called "Lucky March." The host probably realized how much work it was to organize this event and there was no second contest.
