Ok, if someone wants to wrap up the 'test of mind' by showing exactly what test of mind a distracted Stamm has to undergo with a Mind Flayer, then we can move on to the startling confrontation of the party and - whatever is testing the party, and has captured whoever sent the party a note
Dun dun dun!
Whill the mysterious message be from chaos? IS the capturerer a dragon? Is this a trick? What heroic feat required heroic weapons and fire armour? What dice roll or coin flip is necessary that a +1 / -1 to it is so darn important? Will all the tests so far that have been reducing the dispositions of the characters come in to play at the end?
Find out! Perhaps....
Before next christmas! Maybe...

Bugger, I forgot all about this -again-.
Can you confirm that I've got this right?
132
- It could be that Stamm has just been warned of the danger of the Mindflayer, from 131
- Lawyers came, failed, and Mindflayer left in the teleporter, from 135. Said Mindflayer returns, from 136.
- A caterpillar sacrificed itself, from 134. Said Mindflayer returns, from 136.
It's a toughie. I'll have a couple of days ponderance over it.

I had a play through from #1 for the first time in ages. I guess nobdoy's too concerned anymore, but the logic don't work!
I should have had a skeletal Halk and no Syra but by the time I reached 131, Syra was magically back and Halk was fine.
A few plot holes, methinks.
Good stuff though! Very, very funny. Excellent work guys!

The story has it's fun moments. When it's finished I'll re-read it all with relish, all
pretty and webified. (The
131 conversion is pretty unique!) Don't forget to do 132 though Beo!
I lay the full weight of responisiblity on Beowuuf's shoulders to finish this one off as I haven't a clue!
Good luck chap! - I'm off site for the next 5 working days so not much slacker time for me

I have inspiration it is just opportunity and focus - very, very very busy at work, had colds etc. Just lots of reasons to not be able to sit down and type us stuff I want to. Will get back to it sooner not later, but at worst it will be finished in a neat little bow by the end of November in time for anything anyone wants to do in December
There's absolutely no point in anyone putting anything stupid for the last section in the meantime, I'll just delete it since a big 'screw you' to the reader is only funny to the person doing the section

Hmm... well the CYOA seemed like too much work for most people so it wasn't generally successful as a community effort. We need something simpler!
Do we need to finish CYOA before we start the next one!? >_> <_< ?

We don't have to, but I'm going to. Losing my next few weekends will make that more difficult, but I'm going to keep doing sections and am in the middle of the next even now!

Ok, and done! It started shakily, and maybe the rules get convoluted, but I enjoyed writing the end bits.
It's done, dusted, now we can create a more fun easier to do Christmas-y thing-y for this year!
