The problem with continuing later is that the server uses a cookie to keep track of who, or rather whose computer, is authorized to edit an episode. So if you start writing an episode on a public computer you can't finish it at home, and unless the public computer wipes personal data regularly (or y...

Demonic duck?

Just in case anyone is wondering about the demonic duck of some sort that I've been invoking a couple of times of late, it's a running gag from El Goonish Shive. For more details check out http://www.elgoonishshive.com/ (and be prepared to stay for a while).

Cholera

Just in case it should interest anyone, "Story time" is actually the second time I've had someone die from cholera. Here's the first.

I wouldn't have expected that anyone but their creator and the moderators could look at them. Well, technically I am the new creator, and it looks like the system doesn't know what to do with episodes with more than one creator... Databases can come up with some funny responses in unexpected situat...

Just entered a somewhat more relevant replacement for page 103. The page that came up at the end told me it had been edited five times. I checked and found that the old page in various stages of diasassembly is still in the database. Oh, and I don't know what Gnitchia is either, I just made it up. F...

Chapter 4607

Okay, I have referenced The Princess Bride , Star Wars , Ghostbusters and Sleeping Beauty all in one chapter, given the protagonist a chance to finally find out what's going on, and thrown a couple of potential wrenches into the works on both sides. Can I go to bed now? :wink: One thing I forgot was...

Not to steal anyone's thunder (yeah right) but there's a Christmas related thread that could need some attention on this site as well.
Short intro here. (Follow option 1 from there.)

Pick one from column A, one from column B

Now this fellow who goes by "Catprog" runs a small story building site, and he has been running some contests to try to increase the activity on it. This month there seems to be two in effect - one started in the middle of last month and the other at the beginning of this. I 4 1 have found...

Well, that's the second time I got all the options in one of my chapters expanded all at once. Woohoo! (For the record, the first one (well, almost) was Black Void chapter 580) Not to look a gift donkey in the feeding hole, but it looks like either Josh, Scott or the author is a bit confused here.

I don't quite remember how I found this place, guess I found a link somewhere. On the other hand I remember pretty accurately how I got into interactive fiction in the first place. During my first years online I got into MUCKs , and I've still got a handful of characters hanging around though they a...
