"Basics" Line-by-Line!

[Admiral Shran]

Same here!

I thought it would end there for a while when I couldn't post for about ten minutes (my computer wouldn't reload the website for some reason). How wrong I was.

Now we just have to race through one of the remaining three-parters.

 

[LeadHead]

I had the same issue, I took the opportunity to use the facilities and take out the garbage.

Just to show you how you can completely lose track of which page you're on and when things happen. I thought that Ziz had done his post on like page 3 or 4, it was page 12. Mind Warp!

 

[Admiral Shran]

I think HarryM had one in there to, somewhere.

 

[LeadHead]

Yeah he did, I'm putting the list together for CoveTom.

 

[LeadHead]

6 hours and 15 minutes. Gotta be a 2 parter record!

And I think we can call that a full evening, good night!

 

[Alienesse]

Glad to have participated, although it's not easy keeping up with you guys.

 

[LeadHead]

It's not easy jumping in when ppl are on a roll. I remember a couple of times when I think you and Enterprise1981 were on a roll. And you guys were already at full sprint speed, I felt like I was playing catch up most of the time. Couldn't get up to full speed.

 

[Admiral Shran]

Yeah, the same thing happened when Vanyel and I were at full speed for Q Who. A couple of people tried jumping in, but to no avail.

And that's easily a two-parter record. If it wasn't for Q Who coming in at just under three hours, this would be the all-time record. The next closest is, I believe, Cause and Effect, which was seventeen hours.

 

[Alienesse]

Yeah, I felt the same way now. But I have to admit that, in spite of being a tad frustrating when you just can't get a line in, the competition is also quite exhilarating.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

Good heavens, you guys had a party last night!

Sorry I missed it.

 

[Ziz]

My one post I got in, I had to plan a whole scene ahead and keep hitting "refresh" on those two until my opportunity arose.

 

[Brian]

I didn't even get in this one.

 

[HarryM]

I think HarryM had one in there to, somewhere.

Yes, I guess I was lucky to get in on a "slow point", after that no way, I'd hit refresh and there'd be 4 or 5 new lines. Great job, amazingly quick.

 

[Leandar]

I didn't even get in this one.

Me neither.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

So, is this a speed record for a 2 parter?

 

[Vanyel]

Damn, the first one I've missed in a long time. Good work guys.

 

[CoveTom]

Wow... that was... impressive. Randomization soon.

 

[LeadHead]

So, is this a speed record for a 2 parter?

I'm pretty sure we broke speeding laws for 2 parters. If memory serves the "All Good Things..." Two parter had the record before this. I think that was under 24 hours, but not by too much. When I have time I'll go back and get us updated times for our previous line by lines.

 

[Athena28]

Missed it.

 

[CoveTom]

The participants from our current thread are as follows:

1. CoveTom
2. LeadHead
3. Admiral Shran
4. Ziz
5. HarryM
6. Alienesse

Those names should be in the order in which each person first posted to the thread. No "weight" is given for who posted more or less often.

And now, the moment you've all been waiting for, random.org reveals the answer....

*drumroll*

CoveTom!

Congrat... wait, what? *checks again* Holy crap! It picked me! Random.org picked me! In two and a half years of doing these line by line threads, it's never picked me!

Okay, this is an important decision and I don't want to blow it. Give me some time to cogitate the possibilities, and I'll return with our next episode.
