Finally an answer for all that crotch cupping. Nicely done Alffy.  

Good morning everyone.  Melbourne Cup Day here.  That's a holiday for horse racing where everyone dresses up like it's the 1890s.  Well not quite all but some people do.

GM is up next and I can almost guarantee that he'll be up to no good.  

The tracksheet is updated and emails are sent.

Unfortunately only those crazy Mexican's from down south get to have the day off for the racing, It is business as usual for us folks up North. Well at least until after lunchtime when the whole city will descend on a bar somewhere to watch the race and have a few drinks.

Alffy, you may have saved Ste's life there, hope he is grateful.......

Quoted from alffy
OK I've posted. I'll appologise if my scene isn't the best but I'm a bit pushed for time tonight and I don't want to hold things up, also it's a bit hard to follow where everyone is now lol.


Just my 2 cents...hoping to help with the connects of our scenes.  I went back three entries and read each one, jotted down what I felt were significant, "moving forward" additions for the characters...then I checked the board to see where everyone was at.  Cornetto is awesome about updating the track sheet to keep us on track, so if nothing else, check that out before you write.  

In some ways I think it's a bigger challenge to follow the story line laid out before us, while either advancing, moving or killing characters with our additional scenes. (Whichever MC tells us to do)  I know if we were ever called in to work on a project, it would need to make sence and follow the established story line.

I'm probably a little bit more dogmatic about this...but I really want to learn.  

I know Cornetto said we can go off in our own direction, but I feel that part of the learning curve here is to respond to the rest of the story in a way that moves it forward.

NOT to say you didn't move the story forward Alffy   But use the tools provided when possible. That's what they are there for.

Nice job with a tub of cream.  *wink*

P.S.  This is no way meant to be negative...but merely contructive comments on my part.  It's interesting to see how far we have come and where we are yet to go...

I love words and the fact that when the page is blank...there's nothing there until words are formulated in my brain. Those thoughts...rushing through my viens and out my finger tips, find "life" on the page.  

When people and places come to life...that to me is exciting.

That is part of the learning curve - not a forced part but one nonetheless - collaborating on your scenes will increase the readability of the script but it's optional in this first game.  

I'm learning here too. I need to learn the rules you need to ensure effective collaboration.  That's why everyone has lots of leeway on this one.  I have to learn what to prevent next time and put rules in place for it.  

I think as a goal for this game, making it  to the end is sufficient.  When we are done we'll have collaborated on a (don't look back and rewrite type of) first draft of a feature script.  

Of course we aren't going to ever rewrite this one - but, who knows, we may rewrite future ones.

You are still alive...having a meal compliments of Morgan (I'm dead)

You are also dressed...helping Cornetto carry me into my room.   You were quite stunningly naked while it lasted! *wink

When my turn comes up, I will do everything possible to make sure that every single character, be they alive or dead, will be magnificently naked.

Some cruise, huh?  Nothing but killing, cloning, pyramid portal openers, gems, vampires, evil A & B operatives...  Not much in terms of relaxing and cruising.

Here's to more nudity!!!!

Its down to the final nine: Cornetto, Pia, Dreamscale, Ste, Allfy, Dana, Yohn, Gm, and Blakkwolfe. (sorry GM and Blakkwolfe).  

I really wonder whose going to be the last one standing.

Any you guys shouldn't forget T. Joe.  Just because we are skipping his turns doesn't mean his character should be ignored.  Otherwise he might end up the survivor.

And why is Bert dead?


I killed myself.  How is that for thinking outside of the box?

And getting everybody naked was just a bonus


Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!
