Yeah, but where's the fun in being consistent and fair? =)


You are diabolical, Mr. Blonde Sean. Diabolical.

What can I do to speed up the process? Teams and variables revealed tomorrow, allowing time to confer with your teammate for 24 hours then the topic is revealed and you're on your way.

Not nearly the worst thing I've been called this week, Marnie. I do work in customer service, after all... Lol.

Even Zack has called me a monster on multiple occasions, recently.

I know that somehow, someway, you take it as a compliment.

Well, for starters, the reveal is supposed to be today.  Pushing back to tomorrow falls into the long weekend, as many peeps head out tomorrow afternoon, and have Friday off.

My weekend starts tomorrow, so getting something coordinated with my partner and writing the script by Monday is going to be very, very difficult.

No, I was just messing with you guys. It locks tonight at 11:59 and the teams and lists will be announced tomorrow.


Well I won't be out just for the sake of odd number count.

Well, I did give you four days to write this first script. Is that still not long enough? We'll figure something out, but how about a compromise?

You get the list of variables tomorrow, but I'll announce the teams today. Is this fair and equitable?

Wait, I seemingly missed the topic part before. So it‘S 10 of everything - genre, character and object AND a topic?

Not that I‘m complaining, just want to know

It also sounds like we need to select our set of obj/char/genre before the topic is announced. Is that right?

Yes, to the first paragraph. No, to the third paragraph.

I am locking the entrants right now and determining their order. However, we have an odd number of entries. This is an element I will discuss with the person who comes up alone. I will create a new thread with the entrants when they've been determined.

Technically Mr. Blonde has a little less than 13 hours to get something out "Today" since in American Samoa it's a little after 11 AM right now, thus making it one of the last places to be "today" before it becomes tomorrow.
