Post #17, by SirMontyG

Sir lies down, face to the celing on his bed. Stairing at his numerous miscilanious scatterd about his room, he wonders how he'll get past his parents and friends for a week to travel to Eagleland.
That's one... two... three... four typos in the first two lines.
~A few hours later~

Ness the skittleboy, PSI, and the Dr are all hanging around a big screen T.V, playing SSB, when they notice a strang looking silouette appearing over the horizon...
PSI was pretty good at SSB, for the record.

No, I don't know what a strang looks like, either.
NSB exclamed: "Sir! You look horrible!"
And he did, too. covered in mud, sand, and seaweed, he staggers towards the three.

"Whoa..." Sir looked a little lightheaded and knocked a little water out of his ear.

"What the heck happened to you?" Said PSI.
Poor soul... he was just too high strang.
"Well, I wouldn't want to bore you with the
epic tails and meraculous escapes..Hey, D.J Booth!" With that, Sir ran to the turntables, scratching the Zelda Theme with a hip hop beat in the background..
I'm undecided whether this should count as our 5th aerial vehicle crash. At least Sir caught on that it was starting to get just a taaaad blasé.



Post #18, by TheGrislyOldHobo
And TheGrislyOldHobo becomes the first person to post twice! I feel like I should remember this guy, but I don't.
TheGrislyOldHobo put down his trusty harmonica and began to set up a new home on the south pacific paradise.
Damn, when did he switch to the harmonica? I thought his harmarnica sounded awesome.
"Hmmm...." mumbled the hobo," this party needs some POLKA!"
He then pulled out a large accordion and tankard of Hungarian beer.
Hungarian beer isn't that bad, certainly far better than American 'beer' anyway, if you for some reason absolutely must drink beer.
"Let's POLKKKAAAAAAA!"
Hobo began to play the Onett theme from Earthbound as all the other party guests shriked in pain at the music.......
Quite a few of these guys were in Permanent Sugar Rush mode like this. Sometimes I wish I'd never become an admin; I probably would have enjoyed the unintentional comedy of it all a lot more had I remained a knave.



Post #19, by Little Yoshi

(In case you need me for dialouge, I'm friendly and I have those stupid puberty mood swings, but I apoligize for them)
LOL... what's your brother's excuse?
"Guess we better get you cleaned up, Sir," Tim said,"Oh, the hot spring is in the left wing of the hotel."
Hot spring... inside the hotel..?
"Hey guys, mind if I join in in SSB? If I can, I'd like Blue Yoshi," Tim said.
Why in the name of the Six Unholy Lords of the Underworld would you voluntarily use Yoshi in SSB?



Post #20, by SirMontyG

"ooo... hot springs..." Sir stumbles to the water

Meanwhile...
Of course the 'Meanwhile...' is always assumed in an IF; it's not like the story ends if he forgets to add it to the end of his post. You saw this a lot in IF. Leaving a cliffhanger or a hook at the end of an action post, like 'Bubba clung to the tree branch over the 230 foot gorge, knowing his fingers had only a few more seconds left in them, when...' --that's good. Sticking 'Meanwhile...' irrelevantly at the end of a post where there's nothing in particular to continue... not so much.

That concludes the fairly innocuous first day of the Gathering. First thing tomorrow, one of the major writers will introduce himself to us.
