I've been reading science fiction since I was a little kid. It's my favorite genre, so obviously I want to watch you incompetents render it into slop and garbage.
This week, I want you to write a science fiction story. When you sign up, I'll assign you a randomly-selected title from a previous Thunderdome week, which should in some way inform your story, for example "Week #14 You shouldn't be here". You're only taking inspiration from the title, not the actual prompt itself--there's no need to go into the archives to look up that week.
I will exclude uninspiring titles like "THUNDERDOME 10TH BIRTHDAY EXTRAVAGANZA" (although actually, that could be kinda good...)
