This game is a modification to the old 'Adventure' style games where the computer asked you what you wanted to do next, you typed it in and the adventure unfolded.
Here's how it works
1) Read the previous posts to get a feeling for where it's going. 2) If you want to be next, reply with 'Next.' 3) Check to see if you are the first post with 'Next' written in it. If you are, use 'Edit' to modify your post with the next part of the adventure. This way there's no wasted effort. 4) Never make a post which can stall or kill the game. There is no end to this game. 5) Your adventure segment must include a narrative followed by at least two choices.
Example
Poster A
Poster B Posts 'Next,' confirms he is next, uses edit to make the following post...
Etc.

I'll start...
You wake up 5 minutes before the alarm and turn it off. You yawn, rub your eyes and think about the big day ahead of you before rolling out of bed and heading for the shower. After breakfast, you:
A) Finish dressing, making sure your tie isn't crooked. You grab your briefcase and suit jacket and head to the garage where your 270 MPH Hennessey Venom is waiting for you. B) Finish dressing, making sure your gun and harness isn't visible under your jacket. You grab the newspaper from the porch and walk over to your new Corvette in the driveway. C) Finish dressing, making sure your shirt is clean. You grab your bag lunch from the fridge and head outside to your parking stall where your Kia Rio LX has been sitting since you got off work yesterday.

As you drive to work in your Kia, you realise your life is dull and boring. You could be so much more and contemplate a career change. Do you:
A) Go online and apply to become a firefighter. B) Reply to that email marked "For your eyes only - Uncle Sam needs YOU". C) Stick with your job as a junior accountant at McFinlays but finally pluck up the courage to ask Mr. Benson for a raise.

A) Go online and apply to become a firefighter.
Being a 30-something, junior accountant is not where you envisioned yourself to be in this stage of life so you decide to make the big jump to apply to become a firefighter. You jump into your mom's Kia Rio and head down to the nearest fire station to ask for an application. Just as you pull up, you see the fire trucks outside the station with a bunch of firemen washing the trucks. You imagine how cool you would look hanging outside the fire truck, with your hair flowing in the wind, as you rush down to the next 911 call, but you seeing firemen outside brings your dream crashing down. "At 4' 9", how the heck am I going to get to the top to wash the top of the fire truck?", you ask yourself.
As tears begin to stream down your face, you lower you head into your hands and then you see it. Something that had been there all along but you were too focused on your accounting job to see it. Those hands...that's it, it was there all this time.
Do you:
A) Run to your nearest Dollar General to pick up some oven mitts and contact the nearest talent agency to tell them about the how you will be the next Top Hand Model, like your hero George Costanza.
B) Goggle the Finger Snapping World Record. Your hands are small therefore your fingers are the size of mini carrots. It'll be a cinch for you to break the world record since your fingers won't have to travel too far.
C) Drive home to mom and declare to her that you discovered your calling. You tell her that all this time you've been wasting your time using your brains for nothing while your talent was always there in your hands. You tell you that with your hands you will make the best finger paint turkeys ever...

Sorry Ditch. I didn't think that would impact it so much. I guess size does matter, or at least it does in the matter.

You are immediately signed up to the talent agency who provide you with very highly paid, non-stop work for the next year. You use this money to get extensive plastic surgery, including much needed leg extensions. Following a full recovery, you emerge from the hospital looking like the new James Bond. Do you:
A) Go to the nearest Aston Martin dealership and purchase a silver DB5? B) Buy that 270 MPH Hennessey Venom you've been dreaming of? C) Take a train to San Francisco, just for the hell of it?
