A Red Letter Day - re write - A2963801

Okayyyyyyy!

So, next challenge has started?

Same rules as before?

When's the deadline and who's in charge of scoring?
+ we'd need a sign up list of participants again.

Cheerzz,

Mel

PS: do we continue to post story links in your port, Sb or elsewhere this time?

Well, post them in my pf. Might as well keep it the same. Don't want to create confusion!
Thanks for the titles havago.
Same rules.
Deadline for stories, let's say Sat 11th. Then anyone who wants to do re writes should have enough time.
Please can someone else volunteer to add up the scores!!!!!

same rules as before?

Anyone care to save me the time of reading the entire thread to find out what they are? This sounds like fun.

Weaver: this is a local challenge for local people, there's nothing for you here

Write a story in 60 words.
Can write as many of the titles as you like, but only one entry per title.
Every sentence must end in "ibble".

That's about it...

hmm. are you completely sure about the 'ibble'?

Yes, perfectly sure. And every piece of dialogue/monologue MUST begin with "squrrrk". It's gospel.

I think we all remember Roy's winning entry, with the classic last line:
"Squrrrk, the next stop-ibble."

Good times, good times.

Write a story in 60 words.

Can write as many of the titles as you like, but only one entry per title.

That'll get you through. But don't blame me when you enter your ibble-less story and everybody laughs at you.

I can live with that-ibble

Here's my ibbleless entry...

Glad you joined, Weaver.
You're right - it IS great fun.

Sb, just a suggestion for the following 60 word comps (not this one): why not let the winner be 'awarded' choice of 4 titles (+ of course the points )?

cheerzz,

Mel
