I have another problem.

Of course not. Don't forget, we were all new at sometime, and for never being in a story before, your doing pretty good. I realized that it sounds a little choppy (or something, I don't know), but I think that was more because of what other people already had planned for the future.
I've found one of the hardest things is to try and not go against anyones elses ideas. You have to really know the other people and what they are looking for, which normally takes some time. Also, most peoples ideas change, so you can never be absolutly sure that you aren't going against anyone.
One word of advice: try to make sure that you have read everything up to the current post (this includes both new and old members, including me).
Don't worry about messing up too much, because if it's _really_ bad, a moderator can always change it (although to mess up repeatedly can be annoying for a moderator, I'd imagine).
p.s. I hope this doesn't sound negative, because I'm not trying to put anyone down.

*echoes what was said about being new at some time, as well as echoing the part about reading the background.*
Welcome aboard!

And so the problem remained; lots of people were mean, and most of them were miserable, even the ones with digital watches. Many were increasingly of the opinion that they had all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that the trees had been a bad move and that no one should ever have left the oceans. - Douglass Adams

Yes; hello.
Also, could people look in the Chronicles board? I posted an edited version of the Undine Stronghold: Part 1.

As have four other people. *Avatara is stressed from attempting to cut down some people's egos, excluding some people like Grapper who are doing just fine, and having to put up with their nasty retorts.*
*Avatara doesn't need to echo the "new stuff talk" 'cause he said it at the same time!*

The only thing where I believe you can't post in right away, meaning you need permission, is the current "Once Again topic...". To post in that, send me an e-mail at:
mrknudson1@home.com
...and let me know yu are interested. I would like you to post a bit more though in other stories, so I would know how you would fit in best. You would only need the permission, because I need to send you an e-mail with a brief description of things you should stay away from, otherwise you could mess up the whole fragile plot seven of us painstakingly put together. Don't be shy, I'm not going to force you to do something you don't want to...

Errr....., are you saying I was saying nasty stuff?
