Post #921, by loid

(first things first, I was only joking, I wouldnt care if sir duct taped me to a refigrator)
I have no idea why he felt it necessary to mention this, seeing that no one called his last post into question. Maybe there was an argument in #earthbound or something.
meahnwhile the randite was eating away at kiyo's mind.
"Yes. Let the evil guide you."
I did it all for the evulz.
Kiyo, slowly becoming evil, started towards the hotel with an unkown purpose.

"*slurrrrrp* ah. Need more daquris, oh waiter! hey your not the waiter."
"yOu lEfT mE tO dIe..."
"Kiyo? Is that you? you look, diffe-AHHHHH!"
"no I cant do it. hes my frie-KiLl hIm-but he doesn-kIlL hIm-AHHHH! MY HEAD! becoming... more... more... eViL!"
"AHHHH! take this you manic!" sir threw a stone which hit kiyo on the head knocking him out cold, knocking him into magicant.
I'm not sure why loid is determined to follow Major Asshole around, other than it shows excellent taste in choosing teammates.

"Hey, hotel security! This guy almost killed me! Where were you?" Sir questioned the athorities at hand
When someone does what in real life would seem like common sense in an IF, it's jarring. We would much more expect him to poke loid's corpse with a stick, clean out his pockets, then jump into his Magicant or something.
"Well we were on break.."

"ya, ya, but he almost made me spill my daquri, too.. Hey, wait..that really IS Kiyo! And he was mumbling something about me turning him evil, too! Hmm.." Sir wrapped a towel around his waist and walked over to the lobby and snagged a free newspaper showing the events already occured on the island.

"Ohh, crud. I kinda ignored his desperate cry and now he's gone evil on me. At least I didn't duck tape him to a refrigerator..
Amazingly, loid got 'duct tape' right and then Major Asshole, in direct reference to loid's above post, got it wrong.
Well, only one way to fix this." Sir walked back to the spa, downed the rest of his daquri, and hit himself over the head with the same rock he did for Kiyo, causing him to enter Kiyo's Magicant. (of course that makes sence, what are you talkin' bout?)
LOL, okay, THAT'S more like what you expect in an IF. I swear I didn't read the rest of the post before I wrote that first annotation.





Post #923, by Dr. Andonuts

(For those of you who don't visit #earthbound, you should know that Antadd is the Prime Minister of Retieration(you should also know that i can't spell retieration))
(Wow! Someone remembered me.)
I'm guessing he was trying for "reiteration". I honestly don't remember any of that clearly, though. It must have been something that happened during the four months I wasn't really in #earthbound due to a crappy computer that couldn't access the internet. And I have no foggy clue why Dr. Andonuts felt it necessary to mention that here.
Nathan decided to go find out what everybody was doing. He decided to go find Tim, figuring that he would know.
Well, it is a notch above the old standby "He suddenly had a feeling in his heart Tim was looking for him" on the OOC-knowledge-used-IC scale, at least.
He took out his computer, used it to locate Tim, and teleported to his location.
You think I'm going to bitch about this handwave, but I'm not. We'd have gotten four paragraphs if Liyoshi had been writing this.
Nathan appeared in mid-air, right above Tim's boat. WHAM! "I've got to fix that," Nathan mumbled to himself. "Hi, Tim, how are you doing?"
"Fine."
"So, whats been going on?"
"Well, there have been several attacks on Lavos, all failing, and lot of people have visited Magicant."

This is a disturbingly accurate Cliff's Notes on the entire last 500 posts.
"What do you want to do now?" Nathan asked Tim.





Post #924, by murkkie

(Mog said I could join him so well, I don't know were he is but he could help me)
One of the various things I do for food is work with students who want to improve their writings. One of the concepts I have found surprisingly challenging to get them to understand is, before you write anything (including individual sentences or paragraphs) you should ask yourself: will anyone reading this care about this?
So murkkie is just the latest in a long string of posters not asking themselves that question. Call it the Liyoshi Test.
Andrew (that would be my real name) walked into the auditorium. Seeing that no one was there he sat down to try to find out what happened. Aha! he finally figured it out. He ran over to were Mog was. Hey! Andrew said. Great said Mog, But how did you find me. Well it is very simple said Andrew, I just looked were no one would ever even think of looking.
This kid must have had the mother of all bongs in his room.




Post #925, by Traceh

It echoed again, the shuffeling then a *scratch....creeeeeek*. Tracy came to her senses and steadied herself against the coffin and stumbled to her feet. There she swayed, still listening for the noises which seemed to be comming from the room next door.

"guru....what the munky is that...", she nealt down and wispered so as not to be heard by the unknown presence. "Look at you, we need to get you out of here, you're in pain! Here you drink this water and it might help."
I continue to ignore Traceh's loidian count of spelling errors because if you look past them, her writing is quite good. But good golly are there a lot of spelling errors. 
On topic: Drinking water is always helpful to everything, but what about this water does she expect will cause super healing?
Tracy tried to adjust her eyes to see correctlty. "Ugh...this better not be a concusion.."
Bad news, Tracy. It's a concussion. Good rule of thumb: if you have to wonder whether you're concussed, you are. 
She reached into her bag and rummaged around for the bottle of water she had grabbed on her way out of the hotel, found what she thought to be it, and yanked it out.
"What she thought to be it"? That doesn't sound good for guruzeth's immediate prospects. 
How awesome would it be if she killed him by "accidentally" having him drink fingernail polish remover or something?
"Alright well this...this...we just need to get through here!" guruzeth took the bottle in one hand and swigged it back, immidiatly coughing and hacking at the contents.

"What did you give me? What IS this in here!?" he asked, peering first at Tracy and then at the bottle. "Oh no...tell me I didnt just swallow what I think I did..."
Nail polish remover! I totally called it. Don't worry pal, once you see the pink polka-dots the end of your suffering is very near. Say your goodbyes in the next ten seconds, before you lose control of your tongue. And most of your other muscles.
"Hmmmm?" mumbled Tracy, still a bit out of sorts. She tuned her head and a wave of disbelife came over her.
Well, since waves are involved I for one think it's entirely sensical that she would tune her head.
"guruzeth, you just ate my bug......that cant be good."
Aww, damn. Eating a bug isn't going to hurt anybody. It's just a protein source. But this being IF, of course, we expect this bug is going to grant guruzeth some kind of superpower. Apparently Tracy still likes him despite his being a whiny bitch.
She shook her head. "Hopefully it wont hurt you or anything. I dont know though, Ive never eaten a bug before so I couldnt sa-"

Tracy was cut short, her eyes widened to huge almonds and she started babbeling and stuttering, trying to force out words. guru tried to steady her with his free arm and thats when he noticed he was glowing a strange tint of blue....
I know, I know, I totally called it and you're totally impressed. Becoming a member of the Blue Men Group is only the beginning of guruzeth's new superpowers. Which now I'm actually hoping they include invincibility, so he'll quit detailing his injuries like this is some kind of damn NFL injury report.

This, once again, is Traceh's indication that she has gone back and fixed some typos.
