I'm updating the story in the summary thread as we go along-- keep it open in another window and refresh it so you can see it at a glance. It's much easier that way.

Ah, I was just away to do that!

Can I say that really, don't touch the thread after it's posted, Gambit will change words when he updates if somethign really isn't making sense. Half the fun is that 'in the hot way' was actually valid, andis a weird yet unusual turn of phrase. I think Gambit's use of handles and my quick punctuation saved that sentence ...I miss the hot way bit though...

"...if somethign really isn't making sense."
You mean that "vorpal hamsters" and "chocolate pudding Screamers" and a "luxury undercarriage" actually DO make sense? Wow...
;)

Sophia, you didn't need to edit you post, and I see you noticed and edited it back again. Remember, on a simul-post, the *first* poster listed should edit their word.

To second Beo, if you need to edit it a word, do it as quickly as possible. Don't go back several minutes later and edit it. It all needs to be done quickly and frantically to preserve the spontanaeity of the ideas.

Bah I posted my "fireballs" before he posted his "core"...how come it's the FIRST poster who has to change, seeing as they got there first?

Because then the next person will be replying to the last word

It is easier for you to alter your owrd to fit the next, rather than the second person deleting theirs, then that worsd that is nowgone being replied to and making no sense, then the next word being deleted and a reply tothat making no sense, etc!

The downside of this is the first poster needs to recheck their word, as it doens't look like a simul-posting sometimes for seconds after you post; )

Right, so once you post the post and then someone else posts another post, then you have to edit the post so that the next post fits the other post and then the posts after that make sense too so people can make more posts and then all the posts can be read in order of the posting of the posts and posts and stuff.

Omg Gambit has been laughing a lot...look at all those "lol"s in capital letters...should we be worried... *shifty glance around and casually edges away from Gambit* I think that silly Lemming avatar is having some effect after the dingily*-lit DM carven face thingy...


*is "dingily" a word? Oh well it is now ;).

Maybe...but who said the Vorpal Hamster was evil? I'd have thought maybe it's this hamster who goes round chewing through ghosts and stuff...

See, now I wouldn't have edited "Wuuf Monster", Suule, it worked already and was funnier.

Not that I'm telling you two different rules or anything confusing like that. It's just sometimes you have to know when to break them.

Yeah, the multiple posting rule is there to tell you what to do when it really isn't working - you can rely on Gambit to remove somethign fulyl questionable later, feel free to keep stuff in you think kinda works - that's the funnest stuff!

Speaking of which - Gambit, why do you have two offends and an end of sentence?

Yes I noticed that too...Gammy posted "offend", then someone else posted something, then he posted "offend" again! I think the manicness (new word:P) of the posting here is getting to HIS head :P.
