Who's The Boss
Game #2839: Writer's Block
This private game is moderated by christiangrl. Please read the rules and contact the moderator with any questions or concerns about this game.
This game finished in 3 rounds.
Here, we will have an average game of WTB, except you will earn immunity and clues by the short stories that you write. The more effort you put into your story to make it intresting and a worth while read is your choice, and the top two writers will earn their choice of immunity or a boss clue. Every round or so, I will post a clearing clue for you to solve.
At the beginning of the round, I will give you directions for a prompt, or for the writing challenge of that round.
Note: Anyone can play, but they must be active!
PM me to play. Post questions here.
Here is what you may potentially see.
~~~
You need to write a story, not a long one, but a good one, using these three things:
Person: Barbie
Place: Under the Sea
Thing: Lamp
~~~
Here is another possible one. Write a story that begins with this sentence:
Even before he got electrocuted, Jason was having a rotten day.
~~~
Or write a story together, with everyone else. Final post gets a clue. I'll begin.
Tom went for a walk in the woods on the day before he died.
He died the next day.
"Ouch," said Tom.
~~~
Write a story based on the Harry Potter theme. Do what ever you like to the characters, just be wary that if you kill anyone I will be very sad, and you will lose points. Humiliating Malfoy in a funny manner will earn you bonus points.
~~~
Or I will say the theme of this round is:
Life in the 1980's
~~~
BTW: Has anyone ever played Apples to Apples? There is a rule in that game about appealing to the judge so you can win. I'm not out lawing that in the slightest. Humor is good. We all love humor.
I'll plan out 3 rounds at a time.
Round 1: Write a story containing the word logomachy, a lamp, and a talking pillow. It should take place in a golf course and a imaginary box. Best two win the choice of:
a) Immunity
b) Clearing Clue
The clearing clue can be shared with others if it's owner chooses. I will PM the winners.
Round 2: Write a story with everyone else. Last post and funniest post will both win their choice of:
a) Immunity
b) Clearing Clue
Round 3: Everyone write their own story beginning with this sentence:
Even before he got electrocuted, Jason was having a rotten day.
Sarcastic people with large vocabularies are my favorite.

With kids you spend the first 2 years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next 15 years telling them to sit down and be quiet.

I think that everyone who is leaving with no access to WiFi should not join in this game. It will go fast, and we do not need inactive players. Besides, someone else might want to take their spot.
peindo: Relax. It's going to fill up quickly this time.

Me voy de vacaciones también ..... pero no estoy seguro acerca de wifi, pero podrÃamos. De todas formas ¿por qué estamos hablando en español? Tuve que usar el traductor de google ....
I guess you want me to leave then?
Et je ne parle pas l'Espanol, c'est seulement le francais pour moi.
Desolee christiangrl, mais je serai absent, alors je crois que c'est meillure since je part maintenant.
But I'm awesome, so I'll stay anyways

Yay last one to join! Now we can finally get started!
Ghosts are actually caused by Chuck Norris killing people faster than Death can process them.

And now I'm stuck in the game. Well, at least I'll survive round one...
Anywho, my story was deleted when you created the new game, and I'm too lazy to rewrite it.
Sorry.
Does my Malfoy picture count for anything?

Would we know by now if we were the boss??
I just learned it is apparently considered 'abnormal' to have imaginary friends at my age.
Isnt that odd?

Awesome, the game has started. I don't think I would know if I was the boss right now.
Uh oh, gotta do my story! Here goes:
I lie awake in bed, staring at the ceiling. Strands of thought briefly occupy the imaginary box called my brain. The story I have to write for Who's The Boss. What is a logomachy anyway? I wonder. What will matter, and what won't. There is no way of knowing, of course, but my mind makes me always think. I bide my time until I drift into sleep pondering these thoughts.
I am jolted up by a bright light shining in my face. Has my lamp turned on somehow? No. The light comes from outside my room. Curious for anything, but cautious nonetheless, I ease my way to the window overlooking the golf course. As soon as I take just one glance, the light suddenly dies. The after light proves to my mind what my eyes saw: an unidentified flying object.
My instinct tells me to run back into bed, forget this ever happened. But I cannot, and I make the greatest mistake in my entire life. I look back out the window. There is nothing but the moon and a dim outline only I know to be a UFO. I search the ground, seeing if anyone has shared my fate. Unfortunately, there is no one. But I do see a man in the neighboring house looking very frightened. I am overjoyed, for I have someone to confide with.
But no, he is looking down at his pillow, not outside. Then it hits me: they must be contacting him. He thinks his pillow is talking to him, but deep inside he knows this is nothing so innocent. He suddenly looks up at me, and we lock eyes. He is not curious; not even frightened. He is scared. With that, he vanishes.
I look up, but the outline is gone. Two days later, a missing persons case is opened. The police never find him, I knew they wouldn't. The only report of the aliens in in my mind, now a chaotic wasteland desperately searching for answers. Locked in my mind.
The End

WHOOSH! Tiger cursed. The ball had hit a car, which hit a lamp, whihc hit another car. WOOP-WOOP-WOOP! The alarm wailed, and Tiger was mda as ever. He couldnt sleep because his pillow wouldnt SHUT UP, talking to him and babbling about logomachy. He putted the ball swiftly, into the hole, and did his famous fist pump. He went home, got into bed, took his best golf club, and smashed the talking pillow until it cried, 'i will never talk about logomachy EVER AGAIN!' Tiger lived hapily(?) ever after.
THE END.
there. Happy?
