For those who have watched little britain, this might be more funny to you.

What's with people always enterng a comic style thingy for these compos?
Is there a rule I missed? It just seems to me it could be made funnier if people didnt link  one picture to the next.

I always thought it would be better if we only did one picture at a time...

Fibble: Hey, it's just a matter of preference. If you don't like it, then do it one picture at a time, and the same goes for Batman and everyone else - and if people don't like THAT, they link them in a story. Nothing more and nothing less.

No, they shouldn't. That would sorta trash the idea of this activity IMO.

Oh? The idea of this activity is to provide captions to the pictures. Linked or not.

For the record, I prefer them linked. It's harder, requires more work and creativity, and oftens provides quite good results. But hey, if people don't agree, then don't link them, it's that simple. But it doesn't "trash" anything - it follows the rules, doesn't it? As a matter of fact, it's an expansion of the rules, almost - an expansion that the rules don't forbid.

Well, I meant like if the rules state that whoever starts the round should try to get them linked already, would trash it... People can link then if they feel like it, but it shouldn't be enforced.
