Hi all.
The last Chain Story was so fun, I wanted to do another one and I had a cool idea so have taken it upon myself to host a new one. The dust has barely settled from the last game so I hope you're all still in the mood. I was going to wait a while, but I'm going to start getting busy from July, so now's really the only chance I've got to host it. Vince has given me some great advice on how to go about this and I would love this game to be as successful as his was.
I'll give more detailed instructions after sign-up, but the basic concept is this: In each author's part of the story they must introduce a mystery or pose a question of some kind. After that, each author is tasked with writing a conclusion to one of the stories (there will be teams) which cleverly solves all of the mysteries while bringing the story to a satisfying conclusion. The authors who manage to wrap the stories most ingeniously up will win the booty.
It's a fairly simple concept and I think there will be some interesting results.
If you'd like to be part of it please let me know here. I'll need your Email address, which you can leave here, or by PM or by email (stupot815@gmail.com)
I'll give it about a week, and if we have enough people the game should start on about the 13th of June
Cheers :-)
[EDIT]
Andail has kindly offered to design some trophies.
-Thanks, dude.

No worries. It'll most likely begin at some point next saturday night/sunday morning.
In other news, something is rattling in the fan of my laptop. I hope to hell it doesn't pack up on me now.
I'd really like to participate seeing how well the last one went, but I can't commit until I get my schedule worked out. If I can, I'll edit this post with my email.
Would someone like to design some trophies as well?
Jim, you're welcome to have another go, or would somebody else like to have a go?
PM me if you're interested.
-Thanks

I'm excited for this to start. It'll be nice to be just a participant this time!
I hope some more people sign up.
(cleverly disguised bump)
Right-o
Anyone else interested? As it stands we've got a good number of people - enough for two teams. But I'd love to make that three teams.
I'm gonna give this sign-up period until Midnight on Saturday night UK time (http://wwp.bigbentime.com/).
The contest proper will commence some time on Sunday.
Right-o II
Last call for sign-ups. Any more for any more.
The game begins in 90 minutes.
After that, this thread can be locked ;)
