The concept is simple. Create a story by stringing together random thoughts and replies from various members.

The rules are just as simple.

1) You may post from 1 to 20 words. 20 should be more than sufficient. (exceptions being remarkable posts that fit perfectly)
2) Look at the time stamp and "Who's online".. If its been less than 1 minute and someone is reading the thread ASSUME they are replying. WAIT YOUR TURN!!!!
3) If you notice that after you posted, someone else beat you to the punch and your reply no longer "fits" PLEASE edit it to do so.
4) NO SPAMMING!
5) Do not post in succession. Allow others to take their turn.
6) Do everything in your power to keep the story on track. IE do not insert a sentence that has absolutely no baring on the direction UNLESS you can make it fit smoothly as a subplot..
7) Check your spelling PLEASE.
8} Do not use the thread as your personal attack weapon. No one should be flamed within the story.

The best things in life, aren't things.

...Leperous had been gruesomely murdered. What with the noise of the rampaging snark, and the intergenerational war of words taking place in the background, no one had heard a thing. Indeed, it was the stench of rotting flesh in the air that tipped the unwary forum members off. By the look of the nearly decapitated corpse, three 50. cal slugs had penetrated the fearless leaders body. The barrage would have turned an engine block to scrap, and the paper thin rotting flesh of This Worlds Creator had been neatly aerosolized. It was much akin to the way dog s**t takes to the air when you run it over with a lawn mower. Recognizing that leprosy is a highly contagious malady, particularly when rendered aerosol by a massive injection kinetic energy, Orpheous turned from his verbal opponent and shouted...

Consequently, this provided the opportunity for those forum members to
realize that they actually do have a problem with premature
ejaculation. As a result, they attempt to send their subsequent
medical bills to South Koreans, blaming them for their new-found malady.
