“Explicitly NSFW” means that the prompt includes outright sexual content (whether in a photograph, drawing, or in words), and prompts that in the additional requests are asking for explicit fills. Prompts are posted with the same HTML format, in the same manner as a SFW prompt, just under the designated post for that Bonus Round in the After-Hours comm. See ‘Filling’ for the procedures for NSFW Fills.

NSFW Fills

After joining, you will be able to access the AfterHours BR1 post.
If filling a prompt that has been posted on the after-hours comm, simply reply to that prompt. If filling a SFW prompt, let the prompter know by replying to the original prompt on the main comm with a link to your fill on the corresponding after-hours Bonus Round Post. Please DO NOT use the Fill subject line or Fill header when cross-linking. This will cause the BR scorer to count your fill twice.
Scoring
The scoring for bonus rounds depends on the number of people (n) on your team. You’re welcome to make as many prompts and fills as you like!
For prompts: 5 points per prompt, limited to 5 times the number of team members (5n)
For fills, where (n) = number of members on you team:
- First 5n fills: 20 points each
- Fills 5n to 10n: 10 points each
- Fills 10n to 15n: 5 points each
- All fills after 15n: 2 points each
All scored content must be created new for this round.
Additional Information
If you're hunting through the prompts looking for what to fill, a good trick is to view top-level comments only (see the line of links below this post). We’ll also have a prompt/fill database up and running soon that will help you filter through BR posts.
A Tip: We all want SportsFest to be a fun and safe environment. If you notice someone has made a mistake in their required tagging, or any other html or rules related aspect of their comment, do let them know, message them privately rather than replying - if you reply, they can’t edit the comment! If you aren’t comfortable letting the commenter know directly, contact a mod and we will make sure they update the required tags.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact a mod.

If Mikio hadn’t been expecting “Gearless” Joe to come roaring up on his motorcycle in the middle of the night, he couldn’t exactly say he was surprised, either. From what he’d learned, Joe wasn’t the type to take being knocked out by his own coach lightly, nor the type to listen to a warning.
He let Joe bang on the door for a while, watching him through the security cameras. Answering immediately would give off the wrong impression, that maybe Joe was worth his time. When the banging didn’t stop, and the cursing started, Mikio sighed and went to answer the door. The Shirato name commanded enough respect his neighbors probably wouldn’t complain to him directly, but they would definitely make their displeasure known in other ways, which would be tiresome.
“Joe,” Mikio greeted as he opened the door. “I'm surprised you found out where I live; I wasn't sure you could read.”
“And I'm surprised a coward like you has the balls to answer the door,” snarled Joe.
“Coward?” Mikio's voice hardened. “Because I told you I knew the truth about you? Because you forfeited?”
“Because you pulled that shit so you wouldn't have to fight me in the ring,” Joe replied. “Winning by forfeit ain't winning at all.”
“You don't deserve to be in the ring,” Mikio spat back, his temper roused, though he'd sworn he would stay calm. “Your ID is fake-- you're a liar who cheated his way into Megalonia.”
“Oh yeah?” Joe shifted his weight, readying for a fight. He smiled that sharp smile he wore just before every match. “How 'bout I kick your ass right now? Prove I'm no cheater.”
“Even if you could beat me in a fight,” said Mikio, his mouth curling. “Even if you could, what would there be to stop me from telling everyone about your false ID? To have the whole world know Gearless Joe is a liar, and probably his coach and that boy, too.”
“You shut up about them.” Joe's voice was low and hard, and his fists were clenched, but the readiness to fight had faded. He cared about his team. That was good.
“In fact,” Mikio continued as if Joe hadn't spoken. “I wonder if I shouldn't tell everyone, anyway. You might be out of Megalonia, but it wouldn't do for you to come back and deceive people some more.”
“Whaddya want from me?” asked Joe. “Money? I don't have any.”
Mikio shook his head.
“I don't need money,” he said. “This is about principles.”
He looked at Joe, this scrappy streak of nothing with burning eyes. The men in the underground said he always put up a good fight, but he never won-- that was on purpose, Mikio guessed. He may have cheated his way into Megalonia, but he'd never cheated during his fights. “Junk Dog”, they'd called him. “JD”. He'd been in the underground rings for a while, with that coach of his, until his last fight, against someone who might have been the Champion himself, the speaker really couldn't remember, but if Mikio wanted to buy another drink, well, maybe that would change.
Junk Dog. A fitting name.
Joe rolled a shoulder, and Mikio was suddenly reminded of Yuri. Yuri had seen something in Joe, even if it was just a brat to beat down, and that deserved some consideration. Besides, Mikio couldn't deny there was a part of him that wanted to fight Joe, to pit Ace against those fists. In other circumstances, maybe he'd listen to that part.
But there was more at stake here than a fight. Mikio was out to prove Ace was the superior technology, and wasting his time on novelties and fakes wouldn't help him. Still, maybe it might be nice to have Joe around, after Megalonia was finished. Another opponent to prove himself against. If Joe played nice.
“Fine,” he said, a slow smile spreading across his face. He straightened. “If you can put your pride aside for the sake of your team, I won't tell. But you're going to have to beg for it.”
