[ You're in a stucco-walled white room, lit by a too-high-to-reach (no matter how hard you try!!!) skylight showing a beautiful blue sky. Unfortunately, the room has the same weird patches as the Ring all over the walls and floors...

At the center, there's a rough-hewn wooden table, some wooden chairs, and a load of pens and paper. Chesh's voice floats from all the dark patches at once. ]

You know all about filling in the blanks... give me a word for every type of word I've given you, make a few guesses, and you'll be well rewarded.

... madlibs, perhaps?

Re: DISCUSSION

[pchaaair]

What are madlibs?

Re: DISCUSSION

[oh_brother]

A sort of word game. You're given a list of word categories, which are used to fill in the blanks of a story. Usually humorously.

A game?

ROUND TWO: PICKING

[dramatispersonae]

I’ve put out everything you’ve helped me with. Now let’s see how well you can pick out who helped.

Every team had three pieces to finish. Read all the pieces, decide which team wrote which, then tell me the title of the three pieces your fellow teams wrote.

Re: DISCUSSION

Well, the best place to start for this, would probably be with the ones we wrote, right? Since our team is on there.

Re: DISCUSSION

[tsunbender]

We only need to find our words, right?
