Not sure what happened here, but I hope all is well with this game. It's supposed to be fun.

I have to admit though, it is more fun the longer your character is in the story...

If it makes you feel better, Pia, I've been dead longer than you. =)

Look at it this way. You get to kill one of the VERY last people. You almost get to decide who the main killer is. That's good times.

Sandra - don't know you that well yet but I love your writing, so unique, flavoured and blatantly from the heart.
Just because a few things were picked up about the game rules, please don't translate that as a blanket statement about your proper work.

Hugs.

On a different note, I felt obliged to write about my character on my turn, but with hind sight, I think the game becomes more fun when your chracter is killed you can f*ck about with the others bwahahaha, dance my puppets dance!

I for one enjoyed what others did with poor Chuckie Saturn - his demise was typical of his life and career - flushed down the toilet, the poor bugger.

Quoted from Sandra Elstree.


I am certainly more than certain, Michael. You know me.  DELETE.

Sandra



And just think, he brung you back so Jeff can write us doin' the Hokey Pokey and some crazed killer knocking us us off in a pile of dead people. I almost thought about jumping the train too, but I said to myself I can play by rules and I can get more nasty.

You don't have to put a lot of work into these things.

Hey Sandra

I had a habit of confusing people but I continued on writing and look at me now. I have a couple of shorts that make sense and I'm writing my first feature, hopefully understandable.

I quit the OWC so I can focus on features and because I sucked at it . lol. Nothing to take personally. There will be things that a person's going to suck at. Either improve it by writing more or work on other possible strengths.  

This is a game and a practice for screenwriting.

Hi Sandra I hope you don't actually let this keep you from writing. I don't think anyone meant to upset you or anything. Your passion is pretty remarkable, I think, and certainly not something to quash, especially over a game where none of us really knows what's going on anyway:p

Keep going, girl. And if any of us upset you in any way, say screw that and come back harder than ever;)

Sandra, I hope my words aren't what set you off and got you talking so negatively.  As I said in my PM, it sure wasn't my intent.

IMO, one shouldn't invest "alot" of time in these sorts of things.  The effect tends to be over thinking, and then overwriting, as well.

There's definitely a truth to the old saying, "Keep it simple".

I for one love your creativity and passion for both writing and reading. You delve into scripts deeper than anyone I know.  That is a true gift and you need to understand that.

Again, my apologies of my post upset you.

Brett should have his entry up sometime tomorrow.

And heads up Rebekah because you're up after Brett.  Don't start writing until he posts though.

Which is why this was fun for all of 5 minutes for me.

I usually kill my character off in the first entry.  I don't think it's any less fun to use other people's characters.  That's a big part of collaboration - being able to work with other people's ideas.

Your turn is only three away, Usual. You still have a kill.  You'll have plenty of fun.  Probably take your revenge on me.

This is my first Killer game, I honestly never thought of taking myself out.
I thought the objective was to cast dispersions on yourself to stay alive.
So, I used my kill to frame my character, the tidiness and the toilet flush, etc.
I didn't mean to ruin anyone's fun. Someone had to go first.

Obviously, I missed a lot since Friday.
But, are people actually getting upset about the game?
Well, no hard feelings here if I get "payback killed".
I thought I was participating in the spirit of the rules.  

E.D.

DarrenJames,

That was nice piece of revenge you hung on my character background!
Yay, a bomb. Cross that off the murder mystery laundry list. Nice work.

Pia,

Loved the action adventure Bondian vibe yours had.
You delivered a bunch of exposition and directives with aplomb. Cheers.

Sean,

You got everyone spread out nicely. I *really* appreciate that.
And then there were six little Indians...

Six little Injuns all alive,
One kicked the bucket and then there were five.

E.D.
