Victor,

Am I doomed?

I think QM suggests you write a demonic story once you reach 666 stories or you may simply be compelled beyond your will.

I think Skoob is on the brink.

No, you are not doomed (yet).

Quickly write a brilliant opus involving lacey doilies and refrigerator magnets and your rank may be permitted to change (but only if the story gets sufficient stars).

What Victor was talking about was our Spoof tradition of making your 666th story deal with the Anti-Christ in some form or fashion. QM was the first one there and started it all (I believe that her's was on Bush). My 666th story fell during the Democratic National Convention last year, so Obama became the easy target.

Thanks,

When in doubt J-man will always give you a reasonable man's opinion.

It's the Spoof's version of the 700 Club!

Exccept that since 4th July 2009 a mysterious new Spoofers' 700,000 Club materialised when some of the top-hitting veteran writers suddenly found thermselves enriched by a 700,000 points top-up.

Mark has treated it as a cyber-glitch despite Fergus & some others suggesting it was a bona fide top up while Editorial was smashed on local hooch.

Who knows.

Anything that involves hooch is my waffle (not to mix a metaphor).

Thanks Skoob.

I like Dara O'Briain, funny fella.

I'm recording the 2nd half because herself is watching Big Brother.

QM,

Since they are letting such riff raff have one million points these days, I believe that we need to disband the old Spoof Million Points Club and organize a new group.

Shall we base it...say...at 1.7 million points? Maybe even 2 million?

Higher Japaneloman.

I've written a story today and I'm going to write another one after I've had a bacon sandwich.

I'm going corporate, that's where the big points are.

FTJ,

Best of luck with that.

Pretty scary stuff - I did a snippet called "A Hell of a Story" about a superstitious writer leaving the spoof after a story stalled at 665 views when I first started writing here last winter. It still gives me chills just thinking about it.

"Be gone bad spirits!!" (sprinkling holy water)

I just published my sixth story and I am ranked 669th; does that exempt me from the 666 clause?

Been thinking about this one, J-Man.

Two Million Club sounds about right.

But why hasn't Mark reversed the numbers? Or is the technical aspect of such a move a classified Spoof secret?

well, i'd kiss you and tell everybody you put out!

(for those of you who are unaware of west virginia love connections, what smurfette and i are doing is called foreplay).

Sorry to disillusion you. Foreplay involves a lady. Not a keyboard.
