Subject: Would now be a bad time to mention I wrote one once?

Well, kind of... It was based primarily on The Incredibles continuum but there were a lot more fandoms thrown in as it progressed.
I actually mentioned that particular story under this thread I started about Author Wraiths and Falchion's past. And incidentally, it's the very first badfic I plan to spork, assuming I can get permission from my co-author first.
This... this is a mess. Why do people think doing this is a good idea??

It's a crossover between... hold on...
Transformers - All Media Types
Transformers: Prime
Dinosaucers
Transformers: Robots in Disguise
Transformers Generation One
Transformers Animated (2007
Transformers: Armada
Transformers (Bay Movies)
Transformers: Cybertron
Stargate SG-1
NCIS
The Transformers (IDW Generation One)
Transformers (Unicron Trilogy)
Transformers: Rescue Bots
Transformers: Beast Wars
Star Trek: The Original Series (Movies)
Ack.
Summary: There was no way to repair the Omega Lock, the last hope to awaken Cybertron had been lost or is it? In the Iacon database both bots and cons find a secret file which might awaken a new hope if they manage to crack the code and understand what needs to be done to create a new home, but before that they need to crack codes for the clues which will lead them to... SPARKLINGS!!
What in the name of Primus had Alpha Trion been thinking!?
Not to mention that there seems to be some changes by a few bonds inside the teams and also what type of secret is Jack's visiting cousin David hiding? Also accidental visits from the past tend to be fun, moslty if you love the movie Back to the Future, but not many seem to do. Leave alone what is this with misfucntioning spacebridges and strange mechs with some having similar names as them? Beside one obviously having a strong desire to be offlined...
And these were only some of the tame things which seem to go wrong.
Megacrossovers just don't usually go so well. It's hard to make a convincing case for just two being combined, but really, what did they need to throw Stargate and Star Trek in there for? And - I just don't know.
I suppose it's fair to mention that I have read one good megacrossover (if six counts as mega - I think it does), but even that was not meant to be taken entirely seriously. This is just over the top.
But it depends so much on humor and is so aware of its own improbability that it's perfectly plausible and quite good.
'Roommates' and 'Girls next door' are both considered goodfic and they are megaultrasupercrossovers and one could even be considered a fanfic of the other. Which reminds me ...
I found one of those once. It didn't go so well.

In fact, one of my Agents actually originates from one of these.
I'm actually currently involved in another one, to be sincere - the Italian reboot of the Battle Fantasia Project. Not as a writer yet - I'm more of a technology advisor so far.
It's crazy, it's crackish, but it's immensely fun.
One of my favorite... well it's not really a mega-crossover but the backdrop is. The Nexus is an author's playground where any character from anything she's interested can show up. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/1458261/1/Raising-Meridian
I was going to have Kratos and the Prince of Persia show up in my playground, but I lost interest before that point.
Also, Razzy Plush could've been more of a crossover, but it didn't end up that way. I think Dante is the only cameo, while the other girl to write a companion fic mentioned stealing Cloud's motorcycle.
Search Bleedman. There is a chance that you might run into illegal NSFW.
Ensign Sue Must Die is a different mega-crossover and actually quite fun.
No, seriously, what. How can someone possibly manage to juggle so many continua together?
-Is speechless-
I quit reading after the author popped in (a slightly incorrect) astrological series as the separator thingy (considering the one for Sagittarius is a bow and arrow, mebbe a reference to Homestuck? I dunno, I could just be reaching...). IT IS HORRIFYING AND I THINK I SAW OCS.
