Do you need a source for 2+2 = 4?
It's not common sense to me. Common sense to me is that the passage of time is often implied and easily deduced from how a writer crafts the scene - i.e., what you are saying to me is 2+2= 3.
So, yeah I need a source.

Sad...so sad how peeps need to a "source" to do something. You all talk about me sporting rules and I never, ever do that.
Break away from the sheep. DO what's right. Do what makes sense.
Who fucking cares what some "guru" says. Does it make sense? Fuck...don't be sheep!!! Be a wolf...a FUCKING wolf!!!

Quoted from Dreamscale
Yes, LATER is a Mini Slug, but it's also a perfectly clear Mini Slug, in that we know we're still in the exact same location, but time has passed...and that's what's key here. My frustrations with Dave (and Warren, on recent discussions) is that they seem to think if something is OK in a certain situation, then it's OK in every situation, and that's just not true. Too many wrylies is too many wrylies. Using Mini Slugs whenever the Hell you feel like it, is not the way to go. The "intent" of a Mini Slug is to show that no time has passed, or that things in different rooms are happening at the same time.
Dave or Warren has never ever said or implied this:
Quoted Text

You've been corrected on this too many times to count and you know it is not true. It's akin to me me saying - Jeff believes that if something is wrong in certain situations, then it is wrong in every situation.
And again - it is merely a misdirection.
I do not believe nor have ever stated that:
Use wrylies whenever you want as many as you want.
Use Mini Slugs whenever the Hell you feel like it.
Again - misdirection.

Wrong. That is not the intent nor the restriction.

Dave - you know he likes it?
I do. And --
Sometimes I just need something to do while I have writer's block

Aside from the fact that you are the Joffrey Baratheon of rules (Jeffrey Baratheon?),
This the best guidance you've ever given.

I hardly know anyone here - but I'll throw out a few guesses... Gondolier - Anthony Cawood The Libertine - Dustin Reap what you sow - Warren Ganglers - Mark Renshaw It's Coming - PKCardinal I was also going to say Jeff for The Gathering - maybe the double line wyrlie is to throw us off the scent

I may not be able to write anything you guys like, but I seem to be able to guess the writers lol only 1 of them was wrong

Yeah, I have no idea how you did that Matthew... I've been on the site for a while now and I'm still rubbish at guessing who wrote what!

For a while I thought you had written 'I Dream of the Devil' but changed my mind towards the end - I've read a few of your shorts as well so little things tipped me off - solid writing, bold slugs, signing off with The End etc
Dustin's was the easiest to guess but I won't give away his tell so as not to out him for future OWC.

As a poker player I am now concerned
Gonna switch software for the next one, drop The End, use no Bold, or wrylies or Orphans... then everyone will think it's someone else
