Create a Story Where we Each Say A Sentence!

[Tiberius Fireskull]

This is a fun game to play that many of you have played with me before. I brought it to the forums quite a while ago, and it seemed pretty popular, so I think its best to bring it back!

To those that are new, it is quite the simple game. Each player will say a single sentence that builds on a story. Eventually we will get an epic plot line going. Here is a basic example.

Poster 1: There once was a baby squid.
Poster 2: He grew up to be a big squid.
Poster 3: Davy Jones found him and by using voodoo magic, turned him into The Kraken!


Obviously it should be a lot more interesting an in depth than that. That's just a basic example. Seems simple enough, eh? Here are the rules in the form of a good old Do and Don't.

Do...

- Follow all POF Rules and Guidelines when posting. In other words, keep things appropriate (PG)

- Come up with fun and clever posts. Making funny posts are half the point of this game!

- Build off other people and create a good story line that flows nicely.

- Respect other players. Even if you are a bit annoyed with what someone posted, do not get furious at them. This ties back in with following POF guidelines.

- Have Fun!

Don't
- Make random posts that are completely off topic/plot. It is fine to include a bit of randomness, but if it totally destroys the plot line, please avoid it. (i.e., teleporting people randomly into some parallel universe in the middle of some sort of important plot area)

- Try to end the story when it is not appropriate to. Sometimes the story may climax and then settle down and seem to end, but it should be an appropriate time, and in that case, let someone officially start a new story. Don't just say something like "But then a meteor crashed into the Earth and they all died the end."

- Put more than one sentence, or use a run-on so that you can influence the plot more than you should be able to. If you can make some grammatically correct extremely long sentence, I won't stop you, but try not to do that.

- Double post to put in more than one sentence, or for any other reason.

That's about it! Now, let's begin!

On the island of Cuba, there lived a blacksmith named James.
