What is ‘Chess Game of the Gods’? Your link mostly has rules on how to join, but doesn’t quite explain what it is. I gather that it’s some sort of collaborative storytelling project, but other than that I’m lost.
Specifically, what information should I gain by knowing your story is a MLP—“Chess Game of the Gods” fanfic instead of just being an MLP fanfic?
The group’s page used to go into more description—my apologies for not double-checking that it still had it.
The basic premise of this shared universe is that Discord, one of the cartoon’s villains, took a human from Earth and dropped him in a non-human, non-pony body in Equestria. He then proposed a game to various multiversal deities that they do the same—and whichever piece was the last one standing, their sponsor would win the game and gain some measure of power, and the piece would be given a wish.
Some pieces know some, all, or none of this; some of the godly players have various goals other than simply winning the game; and I’m pretty sure Canterlot is going to get blown up at some point in the future.

Somehow, this reminds me a lot of Umineko. Well, that.. would work, yup. Pity I have no desire to work with the world.
