Worlds Collide 2014

World Collide 2014 was one of the first multi-forum events hosted on the Scholastic forums. Lasting a month, Worlds Collide 2014 created new friendships between forums, introduced new book series to forumers, and allowed for a highly interactive experience for fans of the Scholastic books.
Worlds Collide 2014 was a highlight of the year for many SAMBers. Spirit Animals was one of the three book series being showcased in the event (the other two being Infinity Ring and The 39 Clues), drawing SAMBers to the new Worlds Collide page. This page was designed to showcase all of the color and excitement of the three series and allowed the fans of the books to interact with the authors and the books in new and innovative ways. It featured live interviews and an interactive tour with some of Scholastic's best known authors—James Dashner, Gordon Korman, Brandon Mull, Jude Watson, and Rick Riordan. The authors answered 20 questions and acted out scenes from their books. The home page also included a "Fan Fiction Book." Material was crowd-sourced from fans, edited by Scholastic editors, and released during Worlds Collide 2014.
In connection with the event, a Worlds Collide 2014 forum was created and maintained for the month. This MB brought MBers from all the Scholastic Message Boards together with games and other interactive activities. This MB became inactive after Worlds Collide 2014, but was occasionally visited by traveling forumers before being removed during the forum and thread purge in 2018.
The World Collide 2014 was very successful and a similar event, Worlds Collide 2015, took place the next year.
