Great formula.
But it doesn’t address so many loose ends concerning the deaths, the only point I was trying to make in taking the risk of bringing my concerns to the board.
I had hoped with the two new deaths we’d have a great opportunity to tie things together for the readers but it seems I’m banging my head against a wall.
On the other hand what might explain it is something I just read in your post but had not realized before.
This is a *roll playing* game.
???
I thought it was collaborative writing.
To me there is a huge difference.
If it’s a roll playing game then I’ll just shut up.

I want to personally THANK each of the writers on ATS who have helped in creating the excellent, collaborative works we host. I also want all of you to completely disregard any attempts at skewing your creative genius with "role playing" or less than "ATS worthy" as both descriptions are sheer BOLLOCKS.
mark (Springer)...
But as Masqua says in an earlier posting, my leaving right now, can actually bring the ships together and interacting now.
I'm of a differing opinion Silo. I joined this Opera as a means to meet some of the other writers on ATS and for some fun, put my creativity and writing skills to the test per se.
I am not here to impress readers nor do I care if anyone even reads my posts.
I quite enjoy the menagerie of personalities we've seen through the revolving door and find the more difficult the issue to write around (unseen deaths), the more creative and absurd my posts can be (this is fun for me).
I'm not pulling down your ideas here Silo, I think they're great subjects to discuss. This is simply my personal input on your suggestions... not that it's worth much... you know... like $0.02 or something.
I think Theresa should stay alive and come back to herself.
They need some women on the Penelope, don't you think.
Of course someone would have to write her, not me. LOL
I just hope Silo - you didn't think my last post was part of that whole RPG thing - I was just mentionin that I went and got some source material to help enrich our universe we're in.

I don't know what an rpg is.
For me collaborative would mean a group coming together to create something with consistency of story line - like you'd see in a book.
A "Roll playing game" would indicate to me something with far less structure, not as much commitment to continuity, and something where leaving the readers in a lurch isn't a big deal.
