h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I think that once the game is over, we'll have a cast party where we celebrate our triumphs and follies. That's where we can discuss what went right and what went wrong and how the next one can be better. I'm not quite ready for that yet, but I think we'll get started in the next day or two.

Well, I think we are REALLY done now. Yclept has thrown a fireball at the cargo and it has exploded. Here is my post from the Cago Hold thread:

-------------------------------------

*With a roar, the alcohol explodes, engulfing the entire ship in the explosion. Bits of cording and wood, sail silk and cat fur fly in all directions and rain down on the ocean as far as the eye can see.

The people aboard feel nothing as death comes instantaneously.

The spirit of Captain McLellan is finally free to go where spirits go and is cheered up from losing his ship by having a happy reunion with his friend Eddie.

Volkert is freed from his earthly body and joins Goodschad in the spirit world.

The sprits of the Captain and Lizzie wait patiently for Sarah to join them.

Amelia's spirit is a restless one and eventually is reincarnated in the 20th century in a body that becomes an Archeology Proffessor who also has a place name for a nickname and a penchant for adventure.

Richardson's spirit seems to find comfort in keeping company with the Cook's spirit. Richardson claims that Cetacean technology would never have allowed such a cataclysm, while the Cook maintains that it wouldn't have been possible under water either. While neither of them are human, they do seem to prefer the human areas of the spirit world and can often be seen near other former members of the Mary Celeste.

A small memory unit from the cat sinks to the bottom of the ocean, where the salt water and pressure inexplicably causes it to recieve signals from the spirit world. Thus it maintains contact with all of its friends from the Mary Celeste.

Uli's body is disintegrated, but she barely notices the change from being temporarily out of her body to being permanently out of her body.

----------------------------------

So, Uli and Yclept can continue their battle, or they can call it quits now - it's up to them. I'll start the post-game party thread soon.

Awww, man, I am so ready for game wrap! Mind you, the ability to read the private threads will take a lot of the fun out of Q & A and confessions, but there are still revelations to be had.

For instance, sea, I am so sorry; there was a hint I meant to give you and I never did (because it was uncomfortably like telling you how to play your character). You only needed to touch something with your tail to drain it (remember when I dropped my recharger within reach of you?) You are going to be...well, surprised when you find out what the assessment program really is. Sorry.

And Gwen, do you want to tell B-17 or should I? Or should we just let him read it while I run away?

Okay, I started the post-game party thread. But I have to leave for the day now, so don't drink ALL of the champagne, please.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ditto, jade.

I think that we should tell him in the party after he has had plenty to drink, Mac.

* for all*

G7

*Hugs back. Heads off to the party before everyone associates him with the disaster*
