It's a reference to a famous Monty Python sketch.

I should have mentioned that if you're nervous about what sort of reception you'd get here as a female writer, then I don't think that you need worry on that score. But you could always write anonymously, or using a male or ambiguous handle, if it would make you feel more confident.

In the past, we've had Emperor Cartagia, who in spite of her alias I know is female, and various others using female names who may or may not have really been female. The only current writer whom I know for a fact to be female is ragan, but some of the anonymous writers could be. And it's not imposs...

Thanls, Lots. I saw this episode yesterday, and have been wondering whether to delete it or edit it. I've now decided it's not worth editing and will delete it. It's not that explicit, but its quality and continuity are both poor.

Albino, I'd guess. I'll edit it on that presumption.

I was very tempted to write off option 4 of 28698 and have the substitute teacher give a lecture on the difference between "principle" and "principal", perhaps extending it to those other word pairs sometimes confused in the Quest: "site" and "sight", "qu...

LOL! The sig to the episode: Knight Random (Who is almost done with high school in RL, thankfully. And I'm sorry that Ragan doesn't have that many line in this episode. :) ) I don't think you need worry, since she gets the best line of all, and one that strikes me as a very Raganesque line: "Wh...

Yes, it lookas like someone is making mischief. They did the same in a third place. I'll enable Add New Option in some strategic places.

You don't compose your episodes in Word, by any chance? Its attempts to be "helpful", with "intelligent quoting" and the like, can cause all sorts of weird effects.

I'd suggest you simply edit the episode to put in an ordinary quote character.

They will be very welcome. All I would ask is that they respect the guidelines for the Never Ending Quest, which can be found at:

The saboteur has reinstated their sabotage. :( The speed with which they've done it suggests that they are probably reading this board and were tipped off by my messages.

I suppose people will want to know what the offending episode said, so they can see if they agree with my judgement. It was as follows: That's when the narrator intervened. "Who here is tired of long, wandering passages that only have one choice at the end?" '"WE ARE!" they cried...

Sabotage

I hope that no-one who reads this board was responsible for sabotaging 14773 with 28405. (As usually happens in such cases, the saboteur didn't include an email address.) The guidelines at http://www.sir-toby.com/extend-a-story/story-guidelines.html say: "Respect the Work of Others - This is a ...

27948 - "The Challenge"

Ib, I'm intending to extend this, but I'm not quite sure whether the drake referred to is intended to be the Dragon, or some other more lowly worm?
