Whatever you do Dana, I'd beware of Alffy. He will just 86 you- and I should know- my pyramid portal opener holds a lot of number code. But he never  stole that- I hid it on the ship.

I think I saw my Elven clone hiding the pyramid portal opener under his ancient Viking battle armor.  My clone also "spoke" to me telepathically...he said that his Rams flag is actually a magical staff, made from the roots of the underwater "Tinnitus Sanctus" tree, only found at the heart of the Bermuda Triangle.  This staff/flag has the ability to instantly zap any and all clones (except for Elven clones, that is) into the 3rd Pyramidial Portal.

And the number of the code shall be...666.

MOOHA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!

Who is dead or alive, how many clones, where everybody is located - is all answered in the tracksheet.  Please refer to the tracksheet if you want the correct answer to those questions.  The tracksheet should always be considered correct (even if I make a mistake).   And note, depending on your internet settings you may need to refresh your browser to get the current tracksheet.

I didn't see any reference to any clones.  Obviously, I was pretty much kidding around, but after some thought, I am confused because after Sandra's post, you were alive and Ripley had a clone walking aournd, I thought.

What about my Elvish clone?

Its interesting how this story is turning out according to the writers interpretations. Its really going out there and I'm loving it.

I think from Alffy's post we can see Sandra's post as a hysterical delusion her character had while rocking back and forth in the elevator.  Everything that happened during Sandra's post has been rolled back based on that interpretation.  

The clone should have been just ignored anyway since it was clearly a breach of rules.  Since bringing my character back to life was also against the rules (unwritten though they might be) the only interpretation we could have had for that was that my character was a ghost - which is allowed.

Doesn't really matter anyway because anything that happened during Sandra's post was a dream. Sandra likes dream endings - so I think she'd be cool with that.

Right now, I'm wondering if GM's post will be storm or calm.

Actually, I was DEAD serious! The dream or hallucination was fabricated because some people can't handle magic- I can't beat an 86 in corporeality, but just you wait! I'm on the "other side" now! Mooha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Keep it going guys!!!!

Hopefully, GM can rectify this in his post, if he so chooses too but Michael is still alive. Zadora is holding on to him for dear life near the rails. Now, how long she can hold is up to whoever decides to take up that aprt of the tale.

I never actually got to dispose of him. Zadora stopped me from doing it. Captain Cornetto simply needs to be pulled back over the rails to still have him on board. he served more as a choice breaker for Zadora: Kill my character or safe the Captain.

I decided to that since A) I wanted to make a twist in the story by adding another villain into the mix rather than leaving Zadora alone. B) I wanted to see where this was going to lead to by whoever was going to post next. C) I didn't want to get killed. Hopefully, that's not going to happen anytime soon. lol.

I just wanted to make these things clear for GM or for whoever decides to take this part up. Hopefully, I helped GM since you are the next writer.

If Captain Cornetto has the chance at surviving,  then how can I be disposed of?

Gabriel?

I want someone to write: WHY Zadora is struggling to keep Cornetto alive when she TRIED kill him!!!!!!

I tried to explain that by giving Zadora a split personality, but everyone else is too absorbed in their own characters. Sheesh!!!

I think the only one that can save us is Bert! But be careful Bert- rumours are flying about what they want to do with you!!!

Just wanted to clarify one more thing here.

My character is not alive.  If you look at the tracksheet you will clearly see Captain Cornetto has a No in the alive column.  This means the character is dead.  The only character that has the ability to change this is bert and he may only use this ability on the last turn of the first round.

But we are screwed if we are dealing with magic or the supernatural. Even in a "Star Treck" script we can be messed up. (Bollocks- as Alffy called it).We need to set parameters that we are dealing completely with corporeality and no magic can exist.

If you are going to erase my character, you've got to say: "No Matrix stuff allowed!" Otherwise, you're just f--- ! Yes, that came from my warm hearted soul. (she hesitates) Do I really have a "whole soul"?

The thing is: The tone of this and how it's written is completely open to interpretation. We're supposed to be having a good time! Hard to do- When you think you're trying to develop context and. someone 86s you... you know how it goes.

I've been having fun with this, but I thought "I" was the person trying to develop some context here- and I was knocked off. I don't care about being knocked off in the game- but I wish that SOMEONE would come to the table with a treatment sort of plan.

This is really hard! How do you encourage some parameters and still allow for creativity?

I know Michael, this is hard. I don't have answers right now. I think we all are trying in our own way though- it might not seem that way, but I think we are.
