I think the SCP-4987 writeup could be a depiction of the beast in its rampant prime, the Foundation helpless to create a coherent picture of it, let alone contain it. One of those "perpetually a hair's breadth from disaster" scenarios... but with the germs/hints of a solution
I wouldn't even show the eventual successful wrangling or anything after that. Maybe not even Wheeler. I would just set this thing up as a skyscraper of a feat, and leave the rest to your imagination after you join the dots from there to SCP-4987's other narrative appearances
In theory I could alter the number from 4987 to something else to give myself more time but I should probably write more anyway, so I'll give it a go. If someone else takes the number with something unrelated, no problem, there's an obvious in-universe explanation built in
Finally there is SCP-4739 (as seen in http://www.scp-wiki.net/introductory-antimemetics …). This one actually has a decent gimmick where you can't perceive/read the SCP entry until *after* the monster has caught you. The story even contains excerpts from the SCP entry
This is an SCP idea which I actually originally conceived as an SCP, but then reconsidered because I thought a story, with a protagonist and human reactions and tension and suchlike, was a better way to deliver the idea
Just building a conventional SCP-4739 entry out of those snippets would be very doable, but it wouldn't add a whole lot to the existing story. Like I say, redundant. And I figure slightly less effective
However: there's a whole stack of content omitted from the story. The earlier logs, written by numerous different people, all trying independently to save themselves from SCP-4739, all ultimately failing
These many-fold death logs are things which could in theory, and it's incredibly dangerous for someone as unsociable as me to say this, be crowdsourced
(In this case the number SCP-4739 is unfortunately non-negotiable. It's the antagonist's surname converted to letters on a phone keypad)
I would put together the SCP entry shell, leaving a bunch of redacted logs or "broken" links, then stick a contributor briefing in the comments and see what happens (probably chaos)
So anyway, that's my current position on potential forthcoming 4xxx-series SCP entries. Those are some things which might or might not happen If you take a number I need before I fill it, that's fine, it saves me some work See you in the horrible pages
Another reason it's difficult to tell a story using an SCP is that an SCP entry captures a single moment in time. It's not unlike trying to tell a story with a single photograph of a scene. It can be done, it's just easier with, you know, several photographs
Your alternative is to construct a non-story SCP which is just a compelling, "instantaneous" entity/scenario. Which is hard all by itself and increasingly difficult due to competition. That bar is constantly ratcheting upwards. Much admiration to those who manage to clear it
Constrained writing is good. To read, sometimes, sure. But mainly it's good for you the writer
