"Oi, story writers... and Strafex... :0)"

Firstly... sorry Strafex for having a go at you in the last story. I'll try to refrain from doing so in the future. :0)

Secondly, I killed off the last story yesterday, and hopefully we can start off a new one where we can all keep up with it... :0) You know who you are, and we need you back. Story just isn't the same without all of us writing. Get's pretty irritating too when some sodding newbie comes in and makes themself some kind of indestructible illiterate fool.

So, here are names.

Me, Strafex, Ant, Your Honour, Meka, FM, Pb, Venombyte, Goatboy... yeah, Goatboy, you write.

There's little point in starting a story again if nobody wants to write. Which is why I've started this topic.

I know FM isn't around, but the rest of you I want to see confirmed that you will please make an attempt to write a bit more. :0)

But im goood a writing!!! But then again i did get a BIT carried away last time. :0)

The Newbie's me isnt it???

Ok, on ONE condition.

It's pretty straight forward.

None of this "Oh yeah, I went to see my brain, that was in the MegaDrive cartridge, but it was really Sniper in disguise, who had actually been taken over by Billy Boy Gates. Then he woke up."

That's why I don't write, when it gets too messed up.

Keep it simple when we write means it'll be fun, both for the writers and the people who will read it as well.

If we can do that, then I'll write again.

I read it and well thats about it and yes I do remember that Red Dwarf episode.

Ok, following directly on from the previous story, as always, How Sniper got his Groove back, A Fog Story Production.

Sure you can, just follow a couple of guidlines:

Make sure your post follows on from the last or atleast goes with - if you want to make a change of scenery, do it imaginatively.

Secondly, don't push too far to get the main part. If everyone does that then the story will become a competition instead of "who can be the hero".

Finally, the GOLDEN RULE:

Make sure you read what other people have written carefully but if someone accidently misses a detail and makes a mistake then don't kick up a fuss either.

And a final rule: (mainly for Grix and myself!)
Don't sulk if the story doesn't quite go the way you want it to!
;-)

But Strafex MEAN'T:

I'll make sure I DON'T twist the story so far that it gives everyone a headache....

not straight away anyway...

I'd help if I was allowed. I reckon I can write OK.

Cool. Bum jokes and plot lines that no one can follow, even if they read them five times. Just like they used to be. :0)

Ok, but mine will be laden with jokes about bums and stuff.

Or ranty politics.

Or Trekkies never getting any.
