Someone will have to put Crase in there, because I can't figure out how... But yeah, now up to three paragraphs a turn. And Hatter, in your next turn, say any more rules or regulations. I like that change, KNI. I don't see anything else I think we should change. You know, at first, I thought this idea was the worst thing ever, but now I see that it's exceeded all my expectations so far EDIT: Wait a sec- KNI, what happened to this post: ? I don't remember anyone responding to it...

I believe the human could be just about anyone... EDIT: Oh, shoot. Guys, if we want to continue this, we'll have to differentiate it from RPing. How on earth will we do that? EDIT 2: Actually, here's one idea: we could switch chars, or possibly add more paragraphs, so each person can control the chars they wouldn't get to normally.

Well, here goes nothing...

I guess me XP I like your idea somewhat, KNI, and it'd be nice to try it out. However, one of the biggest problems I see is this-some paragraphs can be just a sentence long, if they're a simple part of the story. And if the person after that writes an incredibly epic paragraph, then it'll really stand out. In any case, though, I guess we'll give it a go.

Okay, that looks good for as a basic plan for Epics, unless if anyone would like to object...? Now, for SS, I think we should also do that, but who should write the story? I nominate myself XP

I noticed. We could always do a crossover, but then again, I don't feel like it's the best thing. So, yeah, we should probly stick to non-Bionicle.

Yeah, I read your stories, and I think that's our biggest problem. Well, let's see the choices we could make without using any necromancy ( ): Hawk Six Virgil (Sample) Arcanio (Sample) Lyaet (EPM) Rau (EPM) Deus (EPM) Sir Geoffrey (Ignition) Arytai (BD) KNI Jersu (LoJ: ToS) Dermus (LoJ: ToS) (Daedalus) Kevin (TBaDO) Those are the only chars I can remember right now that we could use. I'm probably missing a few, so don't hesitate to add more. Just in case you were wondering, the acronyms next to their names stand for the work they were included in.

Well, in the SS contest, it's 3+, so we can have both Arcanio and Virgil However, you're right about Epics. Hm...I guess we can kick Virgil out of that.

Team #2, KNI, Daedalus, and myself, we have a contest to win. We don't have much to go on, which is good. My plan is that we should enlist in each one, though I'm not sure who should write the SS, if anyone. Any ideas? Oh, yeah, one last thing: doods, if we write for either, could people please use Arcanio and Virgil? I'd like to use them, as they have almost no backstory or anything, as well as SHEER AWESOMENESS :3 If no one knows what I'm talking about, here's my Arcanio/Virgil sample:

Okay... I'm guessing I should make a blog entry, for my team to discuss what we are doing. That's allowed, right? EDIT: Thanks, RM. Team #1-Our discussion entry is here. In any case, I'm hoping to enter in both, probably with Arcanio and Virgil in the SS, and hopefully the same in the Epic.

Three completely miscellaneous tips: 1. [submitted by Hawk Six]-When using dialogue, body language is important. Even today, when people talk mainly via instant message or social networking sites, people use body language when they see each other. Body language can be an important key to how someone is really feeling. For example, mayhap Sir Awesomedood111's voice is fine, but his inner turmoil is viewable in his eyes. Combining body language with dialogue makes for interesting and realistic conversation in writing. 2. [submitted by Hawk Six]-When in horror... ...Foreshadow the horrifying end, but only enough so that the reader can get a vague feeling feel what is coming. Think of it as though a maniac with a chainsaw is standing in a few meters from you (weird analogy, I know, but bear with me). If he is standing in the shadows, you can hear the distinctive roar of the chainsaw, but can see nothing-not enough foreshadowing for the reader to get a vague feeling. If he is standing in daylight, you can easily tell from his getup and the roar that he's a maniac with a chainsaw that probably wants to kill you-too much foreshadowing, as you can see it coming. But if he is standing in the middle of some dappled shadows and light, you can hear the roar, see the glint of metal of the chainsaaw blade, and maybe see the part of the masked face-just the right amount of foreshadowing, with enough small hints here and there to give the reader the general but oh-so-vague idea. 3. [submitted by Hawk Six]-When in horror, You should probably try to connect the characters to the reader. Add adjectives. Give them names. Give them a job. Give them a life, in other words. This makes it so much easier for someone to relate with the characters and feel scared when in horror. Also, I have several reviews: 1. LL's It Doesn't Matter 2. Shad's The Never Forgotten Memory 3. Visaru's The Tale of Visaru 4. KN's ToS 5. Krelsin's Exodus 6. Ad's Second to None 7. Zakhihakaz' The Return of Hope EDIT: 8. Exitius' The Fires of Hate Finally, I have a fic, Ignition.

Sorry about the length, cuz I know I went a little overboard here, but I couldn't help it. I love this dude <3 I might actually be using him in an epic, if I get the time. I mean, I have a lot of writing projects coming up...

In any case, Riggie, look at the facts. 1. My friends don't seem to care 2. I'm warning everyone beforehand 3. I don't care what you dudes think about me The last one is true for roughly 99% of situations, to be honest. I don't really care if people think I'm good or bad, awesome or not, because I know the truth, which is that I'm just a messed-up kid livin' in a messed-up world XP
