Comment Thread on Alynzia's Story Thread
-It is always good to have a new author in this section of the site

-I started this so the comments don't interfere with anyone's reading of the story... plus it is tradition to start a thread like this whenever anyone writes a good tale.

Alynzia:

More, more ...

And don't worry about the rover 'reality'. For what it's worth, the smac flavor.txt says:


#SPEEDER
Domain: Land
Speed: 102km\hr
Modality: Wheeled
Dimensions: 7.7 x 3.6 x 2.9m
Modifiers: +25% in open


25 feet long x 12 feet wide is a pretty big vehicle - not quite school bus size, maybe, but certainly could accommodate a sizeable crew

So come on, what happens next?

Wow! My own comments thread! Cool!

It is nice to know people were actually reading my story, I do read some of the other stories here too, you know, and it is a little unfair to expect people to comment on mine when I don't tell them how much I love theirs.

I still feel rather sheepish about Chapters 1 & 2 though, they don't really make sense in context with the game.
(As if the rest was supposed to!)

And everyone knows why I do science at college rather than English. Ha! Speaking of such things, I know we all have lives and stuff, but I have my final exams in June and might not be able to post my story until after then because of evil college work. But I will try to do a few more chapters between now and then since a few of you seem to like it, me hopes.

Alynzia.

Not meaning to copy Raging Mouse but I want a sentinal sentience for some alien technology in my story called Guardian but am not going to use someone's screen name without consent.

Guardian, would you mind?

(the alternative name is Cardinal if you do...)

I don't mind
If I have a choice I like to be a good guy, but it's no requirement.
Just make a good story any way you see fit.

hi Alynzia,

i'm enjoying the tale so far too. At first i was'nt into the idea of old earth Renowneds, it's like how in Star Treck (not that i watch it or anything) how they always play Classical Music from 300 years ago as if nobody bothered to make music since Mozarts day, as if there have been/will be no more musical geniuses since the death of the people my old music teacher used to like.

Having read the way your telling it though- yeah, i like the story and your prose. I think you should lose the smilies though.

And stop being so damn self-depreciative all the time or i'll have to make you a powercrazed super-villain in my own fictive work!

keep up the good work
