Randomness is SO much fun. I wonder how weird of a story you'd come up with if you randomly generated a plot, character names, a town name, a bar name, and a title and actually tied them all together... and not "reloading" until you got something you liked!

I'd do it if I had time... oh, wait, look at my number of critiques... I have no life... Maybe I'll try it... :)

I, too, am awful fond of randomness. I think sometimes it's good practice to streeeeetch your brain out making connections between random elements!

Besides which I LOVE your number of critiques, Mrs. #1.

Thanks! Recent convert.

Also, about the critiques, I think my first week or so here you didn't give the number of critiques (though they were in descending order, I guess). Now it's more like a competition... :) But I will never just blow smoke to get my numbers, I really do try...

And, it's easier, in a way, to critique than to write. I LOVE reading other people's stuff.

Ooooh, yay! These are really fun to use, especially when I have a block and just want to write something, any fun little story.

Thanks!

Um, I just wanted to mention my user Id has three Es in it not two. I just wanted to clarify so that when you plug things into your magical critique counter all of mine will show up... Cuz they don't look right. I know I have done more than two...


Thanks :)

Sorry for that, does this look better?

Thank YOU!

Yes thanks! :D I was curious... If I posted a critique today like oh, 20 minutes ago, would it show up on this sheet?

Probably not THAT fast, but since you reminded me I went and updated it just now. I have a program that checks to see whether new comments have been posted to any post within the past two calendar months. That way it makes it easy to read every single comment posted to this community in a matter of a few minutes. I try to do that at least once a day, more if I'm particularly bored.

ONLY ONCE have I not checked (since I made it) before poking someone for crits, and boy was that a mistake!
