I'll volunteer to do the intro, but I won't be able to do it until tomorrow night.

I'll ghost write it for you. I'm pretty sure I can tie this Castle guy and the Huskers together. I mean the intro should start off being pretty true to life.

I don't think we can do that, especially now that you've made this public. Might get us DQ'd.

I'm ok with that, unless someone else with writing skills can do it sooner. I'm a decent writer, but horrible with coming up with ideas. Once we get the ball rolling, I'm sure I can contribute.

I know that's going to put us up against it timewise, but that's as soon as I can get to it. The rest should go pretty quickly though, starting these things off is the hardest part. This will also give me some time to get my brain percolating.

But yeah, if someone else could do it during the day tomorrow that would be even better.

Ill happily get started on some preliminaries if you all want to pm me a few ideas

Im not bad at paint too. But no photoshop skills or software. Im also not very good with faces. But landscapes, Animals etc I'm better at

I don't really have any ideas, but I can take your paint work and tweak it in Photoshop in necessary.

Bug, if your brain percolates any good ideas for a story, let us know via pm and we can start working on art.

Where the hell is is the rest of our team?

Ok, I have an idea. PMs on the way.

I should have a rough draft ready by 7 or 8 tomorrow night. Any volunteers on who I can hand it off to at that time?

Fellas... I'm headed to Topeka tomorrow for a conference with adoption people and will not be back until Sunday. I regret to say that the game has to take a back seat this round.

Okay. I'm here. Bug you can hand it off to me, I'll take second shift.

How much/many paragraphs are we supposed to write?

Who's going to take 3rd shift?

Other than Crying Goat we still have all our team, correct?

Best of luck pr_! As Lumpy said before RL is way way more important then SPII. Especially when babies are involved! :thumb:

Correct

Hey, good luck, dude. We'll take care of this one for you.

Ok, fellas. I finally got a chance to get on here. I haven't read the Game 3 thread yet, but Gonzo gave me an idea of what it involves. I can do illustrations and/or short stories, so no problem there. We just need to stay focused, organized, and be clear w/ our communication.

The password for our photobucket acct has been changed and I will pm the new password to you guys shortly. I will also try to get around to making another sub-folder for the Game 3 illustrations.

pr: It sounds like you have your hands full. Don't worry about the game. We'll try to do the best we can to win this one for you. ;)

Clay: This really isn't that complex unless you make it that way. Best wishes to you in your future endeavors. Now, kindly, stay the hell out of here... you're getting sand all over the damn place! :cuss:

:p

Is getting sand in your vagina really that bad?

depends on the perspective. I'm sure sand in the clam is irritating as **** to the clam, but the world loves pearls. So pearl makers are shoving sand in clams all over the place.

I'm sure it's similar to sand in the vagina....

So what you're saying is I can shove a bunch of sand up a vagina and get a pearl out of it?

Somehow I knew you'd field that question. :D

Do we have a schedule? I'm available for whatever you guys need me to do today. My weekend is busy, but I'll be popping in when I can.

Get to work, pussies.

The quicker this shit gets to me today....the better. I'm going to be busy all weekend and I won't be near a computer.

Do we know if Bugeater has already started on the story yet? He stated that he would have it done tonight, then hand it off to Smitty. If that's the case, you probably won't get it from her until late tonight or tomorrow morning. Perhaps you could get w/ Smitty about doing the 2nd entry and passing it off to her for the 3rd entry?

Also, nobody mentioned that they were interested in doing the cover, so I started on it. Does anyone want to do the 2 story illustrations?

When I have the cover done, I'll upload it to our photobucket acct. Speaking of which, I fell asleep staring at CP last night and didn't get the new password to you guys via PM. LMAO Sorry about that. I will send it out later today.

In between jumping on fatties!

I would likely be a better contributor to the illustrations than I would be the story, so I'll take it. Just need to see how the story goes before I start.

Excellent! :thumb: I'm about done w/ the cover.

Cool. Send us the password then.

Done. Check your PM. :D

Unless there is another Dartgod running around this place, you didn't send it to me.

I sent it. Stand by.

Edit: You should have it now. When I sent it, I did a copy/paste of the recipient names and it didn't include your name. Sorry about that.

Got it now.

So what were you sending to the rest of the team that you didn't send to me? :hmmm:

I guess I'll keep checking in. I should have some time to work on it Saturday night.

LMAO I figured you would think that there was something up. Remember when you sent me a pm about the photobucket login issue? I replied back to your pm, then I sent out another pm to let the others know.

Trust me, you're an asset to our team. :thumb:

FYI... I'm almost done w/ the cover. PBJ Drawing facial features is a bitch, btw!

Good deal! Hopefully Bugeater doesn't forget to get his part of the story written and pass it along to Smitty.

Sounds like Horsshit to me, Dart. Always remember, where there's smoke, there's fire. Watch your back, Dart.

Only two letters off!

Don't you have something better to do? Like help your team?

Speaking of which...

THE COVER FOR OUR STORY IS DONE! :D

It has been uploaded to photobucket. Just take a look at it, guys, and let me know if any revisions are needed.

Out-****ing-standing!!

http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/u...fs/1078584.gif

I guess that means I shouldn't revise anything, huh? LMAO

No. And I'm not sure how I can compete with that for my images.

NOW JUST WHAT IN THE HELL MAKES YOU THINK THAT WILL HAPPEN?

BTW Lumpy, Smitty is a her, not a him.

that vagina sig suddenly makes a lot more sense.

Ok, my rough draft of the intro is ready. Pest, Smitty, or whoever is ready to go can take over.

Are we just sending it to the other person in a PM?

Yeah, are you ready to go now?

I really don't know. LMAO

:facepalm: Why do I keep forgetting about Smitty being a chick?

Sorry about that, Smitty. You blend in too well w/ the guys. Consider that a compliment. :D

Bug if you want to send it to Pest for the 2nd then I'll take 3rd. I will have more time tomorrow than today anyway. I do work 8-1 Sunday so if Pest can get his to me by tomorrow that should give me plenty of time to get er done.

How much are we writing?

Okay, I have shit to do, so I'm going to send it to both Smitty and Pest. It will be up to you two to figure out who is doing what.

Very nice! ROFL :clap:

No worries Lumpy, until you were outed I didn't think you were a she either.

Gonzo said at least a couple paragraphs each, but I did more than that. I'm going to send it to Pest.

:thumb: Pest can send it to me next then.

OK, I hope he's still around.

This shit is on Pest now. I'm heading to Best Buy to get a stereo for my truck.

I'll bet that was confusing w/ how Gonzo and I converse w/ each other on here. LMAO

Thanks! :) I'm going to do some final touch-ups on it later tonight. The facial features look a little "off" to me.

Not confusing at all. Everyone knows you are just two gay dudes with a 3 year old son.

I'll work on it tonight and get it off to Smitty before I head to bed tonight.

I'm going to need a copy at some point to start working on the story art. Maybe Pest can copy me after he finishes part two and then I can start on the first image while the 3rd part is being written.

Will do

Uh oh. It looks like we're busted, Gonzo.

http://prideinutah.com/wp-content/up...ay-parents.jpg

I really shouldn't wear pink anymore.

Ok, guys, the OP has been updated. Who wants to be next in line after Smitty?

We still have Omaha, CrazyCoffey, and Buck that need to contribute. First one to speak-up will take on writing the 4th part of the story.

Do the n00bs even have a plan yet? This is going to turn into a bloodbath. LMAO

OK, so we have 3 members with nothing assigned yet...Omaha, CrazyCoffey, and
Buck.

We need someone to do the 3rd illustration, I'm suggesting/volunteering CrazyCoffey.

We need someone to finish the story, Omaha you up for that?

That leaves Buck, maybe he can do the official review that's always on the first page of paperback novels?

I assume (bad I know) that we will all get to see the full story before submission so corrections/suggestions can be made?

Oh wait I see DartGod is doing 2 illustrations, so maybe CC finish the story and Omaha and Buck both do reviews?
GO VETS!!!!!

:clap: There we go! Excellent ideas, Smitty!

Thanks! Good thing Goat quit, he's not much of a team player. :shake:

If CrazyCoffey wants to do one of the illustrations, I'm good with that. He's got skills and that would allow me to spend more time on my one.

I hate to giggle at this, but LMAO. Seriously though, if they would put Luv's advice into action, they might actually get their story done before the deadline.

Yeah he is good. Either way I was just thinking of ways for everyone to do something, since I only posted 39 times in round 2 I thought I better find a way to contribute more.

I can finish the story. I play football on Sunday afternoon, but I can wrap it up before or after.

He is pretty good! I'll wait to see if he'll take on that task before I revise the OP again.

Have you started on yours yet or are you still waiting to read the story?

That's OK, dude. I went over 100, but it took a LONG time. It takes longer than I thought.

Hopefully before? I will try to get my part done tomorrow early evening at the latest. Then you can finish it and we can all read it before the deadline and Buck will have time to write his review.
Hopefully CC will take on the 3rd illustration.
Dart, I will send you what Pest sends to me so you have something to work with.

What are the reviews? Is that just a proofread? I can do that in addition to finishing it. I used to proofread all of the letters that went out at my old firm. I'm pretty good at that. Let me know what you guys want me to do.

Not yet. Waiting to read it.

I'm all for you proofreading the damn thing. I proofread enough crap at work. LMAO EDIT: Oh, and the review is a totally different deal. It's a synopsis.

I have it noted in the OP that you will finish the story. I also have CrazyCoffey noted as doing 1 illustration. Should it come down to the wire, and CC doesn't pull through, I'll have a back-up illustration ready to go.

I was thinking more along the lines of:

"THE VETS have scored a touchdown with this fine story. Blah blah blah" ala the NY Times or whatever. You know when you buy a paperback there's all these blurbs from different reviewers on the very first page.

But yes it will need proofread too, I think we all should have our 2 cents on that.
