Not bad. Spent 30+ hours over the weekend playing online, so's I'm a bit tired, but otherwise ok.

One Skunk Todd runs into the Labyrinth and falls down the same hole as mole.

"Bloody hell, what was that?" Remarked One Skunk Todd.
"Er, just a hole." Smiled mole. "Here, let me help you up."
Mole took hold of One Skunk Todd's hand, pulled him up, then shouted.
"Hahahaha, now you are it."
Then ran off.

A slightly miffed One Skunk Todd is now 'It'.

Corsato enters the game, looks around, sees no-one, then wanders off into the darkness.

One Skunk Todd appears yet again. His second post would have made him 'It' anyway if he evaded the first one.

Werebear is still in the wrong room, but at least both his posts make him safe from a tagging.

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

I think this post is a prime example of how not to get tagged.

Werebear · Daedalian Member

I don't, I don't, I don't. I think.

Agamemnon · Daedalian Member

One Skunk Todd, ponders his situation and guesses correct.
But he still is 'It'.

Agamemnon · Daedalian Member

Werebear yet again evades the clutches of the tagged person.

pikachamp · swore in chat!

*tags self*

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

Try again.

CrystyB · Misunderstood Guy

hmm let me try this

Beartalon · 'Party line' kind of guy

*walks in and sheds fur on everything*

Beartalon · 'Party line' kind of guy

I think I better clean that up.

ChienFou · Leader of the pack

Eh! wots this? running round playing sardines are we?

Typical GL behavioUr I'd say. one thought for each extremity:

shagging, boinking, outrageous sex, cyber sex

monique · Daedalian Member

*Wanders in, and realizes what is going on* Ooh, tag! By the way, nice scenery. I'm digging this!

Bloody labyrinth, I dare say! Not a chance in hell you'll catch me climbing into that horrendous filthy pit, Mr. Noiberg!

Dragon Phoenix · Judge Doom

*swoops in unimitabe style*

Corsato · Daedalian Member

~~ Wonders what "unimitab" means ~~

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

Well I think Monique was it, followed by EEEM, who is currently it. If my guess for the rule is correct: You are IT if your post has a prime number of characters in it. I haven't bothered to count the number of characters in this post to see if I'm it again.

Agamemnon · Daedalian Member

Pah!
Just got in, logged on, and found out Skunky solved it all.
~Tears up dramatic tagging scenes~

Well done Skunky old bean.

Beartalon · 'Party line' kind of guy

Yay OST!

And Corsato: it should have been inimitable - which means "unable to imitate" or "unique"

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

Yay me! Skunky old bean, eh?

So should we start with another rule then?
I haven't thought of one but I don't imagine it would take too long. I fear my narration won't be nearly as creative as Aga's unfortunately.

Just don't lock the thread at night

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

*Mathgrant ventures into a tagnasium restroom and in a mirror is horrified to observe the letters "IT" in glowing pink neon, emblazoned on his forehead.*

It was not specified in the first post, but I do not think the person who is "It" should be allowed to guess the rule.

SaberKitty · one can always be hopeful...

why not? they're just as clueless as the rest of us.

Beartalon · 'Party line' kind of guy

IT : Information Technology is the interesting tenet in this isolated town.

EEEM · Saucy Mod

I, more so than anyone.

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

As Mathgrant stumbles miserably out of the bathroom, he collides with a passing GLer and the letters on his forehead change to blue and leap across the gap. SaberKitty is now It! Mathgrant flees while he still can.

Werebear · Daedalian Member

Wasn't "A!" a post with a prime number of characters in it?

Lepton · 1:41+ Arse Scratcher

maybe i get tagged, maybe i run away, maybe i go drink more fruity juice

ChienFou · Leader of the pack

more sardines eh?

mathgrant · A very tilted cell member

Maybe a MIDI will prevent me from being tagged.

Agamemnon · Daedalian Member

~Enters the new Tag® game~

Werebear · Daedalian Member

Answer me, Ag! *Grin*

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

Saberkitty sees Werebear with his back to her. She runs up, taps him on the back and flees giggling down the corridor. As she tapped him, the letters turned brown and furry and jumped to his head. Werebear is now It! After witnessing this, Lepton, ChienFou, Mathgrant and Aga, retreat without being afflict"it".

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

BTW, posts 63, 65, and 69 conform to the rule.

Beartalon · 'Party line' kind of guy

And the rest don't, but that doesn't make us it?

If my guess is correct: a post using ' an apostrophe should conform to the rule, but I think it's what follows the apostrophe that makes you IT or not.

One Skunk Todd · Smelly Member

Oh bother, the letters stay furry but turn yellowish tan and amble over to Beartalon from Werebear. Beartalon is now It! Beartalon's guess is incorrect but he is hot on the trail of that Hunnypot.

Werebear · Daedalian Member

Hey, that's mine!
