There's a novel called The Floating Admiral, in which some of the more famous detective fiction writers of the time got together and decided to write a mystery. Each person had responsibility for one chapter, and the idea was to have a cohesive story at the end of it all. I don't think we would be very successful at that. However, it might be interesting to take a deliberate stab at it! In the interests of making some sort of sense, the best writers would have to be at the beginning and end, the end especially, but there's no reason that anyone can't participate, just as was true of the comicompo. Each person will have a week to write up to the goal of a page (except for the final person, who will have some leeway to allow for the madness which may ensue), and they'll post what they write here in the thread for all to see. Then, the next person will write, and so on and so on. Just note that this is not like the comicompo in that what's been written so far is visible. In the end we'll have either a complete tale or utter madness, but hopefully it will be entertaining nonetheless! There's not really a limit on this, so anyone wanting to sign up please post in BOLD RED! Authors So Far: 1. Theo2. Bood War3. Grif4. PF 5. Inanimate 6. Caio7. BlademasterBobo8. Lokijki 9. Lazer 10.

I would, but is it okay if we're bad at writing? Well, not bad, but just not great.

Well, if you're OK with letting a forum n00b take a chapter, then I'm game.

We seem to have quite a few people, so I am going to cap this at 20. Too many more and we'll never get done! May just go ahead and start with what we have, however.
