A good start me thinks Wink . Well written Masonic, though I think something went wrong with the formatting somewhere along the line. Still, again I'll say, well written. I sertainly hope that that will not be the last we see of the characters that were left behind. I also hope that we will not have to wait long for the next addition.

Welcome Again.

I posted it just as I received it. It looks fine to me.

Remember...I just copy and paste. And now that I have Office 2007 I don't even have to go in and look for italics or bold or underlines! It actually does it for me now! Oh happy day!!!

A little tricky for me to get into, but a good read nonetheless. I can't wait to see what will happen next.

I was making no implications Trop Wink . With all the work you do to keep this site running I would be an ass to complain even if I thought there was need.

I was just noteing that there was no paragraph spacing or indenting and it made it a little more difficult to read is all. I have had that problem when I personaly cut and paste from one program such as an email or something to certain word processing programs. I am barely computer literate much less fluent so I don't really understand why or how.

I think we all ran into that formatting boondoggle with our first posts. I surely did.

I agree with previous posts...a little difficult to get grabbed at first, but now I want to see where it's going.

Keep it coming!

This was a neat story, Gamma World meets City of Franchise. It will be interesting to see if the event that forged Force of Ten's world is ever discovered.

There are some issues with dialogue formating but its hard to determine whether it was text format or not. As far as formating your story, just use typical writing practices. Tropic's caopy/paste has improved. Once upon a time we had to think ahead how we sent it to him because if not eyes would bleed. Generally everything has improved.

Also I would watch execessive word use such as:

Quote:

“My friends, my dear friends,” He began. His voice cracked. He cleared his throat, shook his head and continued, “I know that what we have planned to do tomorrow will have a profound effect on everything we know now or have know in the past. I know that as insane as this plan sometimes feels like, in the end we all know it is the only way we can make a true change…



Just seems a little awkward.

Except I think one of the know's was suppose to be known, but still the same idea would apply. Although one consequence I think it may give the impression that Amberk is not a great leader and may lack confidence and truly doesn't know what to say. Humanizing trait at the least, but not sure if that was the intent or not.

Otherwise very interesting piece.
