not like we can penalize you with giving you a lower grade or something. But you carried it quite well. I like your addition.

And how do you say penalize? pee`na`lize or pen`a`lize?

I offered no extention!
ok, well, better late than never. I don't think that JP was even awake to start, so we'll let it slide.

JP, your turn, you get till 2:17 ASST on Saturday 4/10/04(that's in like, 47.5 hours) from this post) to put your next one in. I reckon that may actually be sunday early morning sometime for you. Not sure.

Thursday 4/8/04 2pm, ASST natch. (that noon Utah). Go MoD


According to that, I'm only 17 mins late. It's just that Gemm posted 11:50 ASST, and I realized that I was 2 hours late from that.

Done, and I think it's alright. And with time to spare too.

Good job Jam.

What does everyone think of starting a thread that points out major items that need to be written into the story? Good idea/Bad idea?

For example:
- John needs to be confused because in the last post, the confusion is cleared up
- Rajisa needs to tell John that their relationship will never work, probably several times. Second to last post.

Well, sunday does count for me, so i should actually manage to post something. Maybe not on time, and not complete, but something.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

this thread is fine for that, I think, MoD.

Plus the confusion in the last post could be interpreted to be chaos, which is what leads to the fight or caused by the fight.

I do want to point out, however, that the next poster does not always have to resolve all the remaining issues. (s)he can leave that for future posts.

Ok, it's me, stacer, Gemm, MoD, JamPaladin, and Entropy. I'm not taking anymore takers. I have Mod powers over this forum, so I WILL delete other people trying to sneak in. Comments from the peanut Gallery should be in this thread, not in the thread holding the story.
