Hmm...I think I might be able to mod.

Did we find a continuity fix yet? Two suggestions I have would be to either have the mod come up with a story and give each drawer an assignment, or to be too paperteleporno and have each drawer describe their panel for the next person. The first might be a bit too tyrannical, and the second too multiple-topics-on-the-same-subjectish.

Seems a tad late, but I would like to play so I'll put myself up for the next round.

I laughed so hard at the last strip, and I don't even know why. I think it was just all the strange situations Gandalf went though, I mean really, Daleks? It's amazing 'Greaty'. I'm glad you asked if you could put one in.

Mkay. Here is my list of players:

- Aganzir
- Legate
- Nogrod
- Lommy
- THE Ka
- Gwathagor
- TheGreatElvenWarrior
- Volo
- Hookbill
- He Who Arises in Might
- Laurinque


Here's how it'll all go down. I will PM you all the same sentence, you will draw a 200x200 panel. Dialogue and the occasional "Meanwhile, back at the ranch..." inserts are fine. You will email it back to me at the address I will send you. I will arrange said panels in a semi-coherent manner, and then post them here.

If the end result just doesn't amalgamate, I may add a few panels myself.

Any objections? If not, I will send out the PMs tomorrow.

The next Mod may want to replace "a sentence" with "a poem"...that could be interesting.


edit: Oh!

What of this?

I've sent y'all your sentence a day late, which I'm sorry about. But they're sent.

Please try to get your panels to me at the address ensconcelled in your PMs within a week.

If you want to give your panels a widescreen effect by making them wider, I wouldn't mind. It's kind of a weird sentence after all. :/

Know what...I forgot that many of you are also working on the *cough* long-running Paper Telephone...during the Christmas season...

If we can finish this up before the new year (MST) that would be wonderful, but if we can't, I'll fill a few spaces.

Oh no, I should have done it right when I got it; now I completely forgot about it. And there is so many other things which I should do as well... if it can wait, it will be great. If not, you can just as well remove me from the list.

(And don't even tell me - I am the one who is modding this Paper Telephone, waiting for people to post what they should for weeks...)
