I want in on this! Razz

Randomly choosing, I could go with "Bargaining with Fate".... but I'm not too choosy either, so if anyone is really gunning for it... I just want in on this! Big Grin

Is anyone allowed in on this? If so, I would love to do any chapter. Very Happy

Is it an option to be randomly assigned a chapter? If I have to choose, I'd pick one of the chapters on the Feroce and the Lurker. Cool

Ok then, I'd be happy to do either "Implications of Trust," "The Pure One and the High God" or "Kurash Quellinir."

Crossing the Hazard (first choice)
Those who endure (second choice)

Also if you need an alternate in case someone finds they cant do the one they signed up for, put me on that list.

OK, you guys got your chapters, simple as that! First come first serve.

Quick reminder: It's your responsibility to remember your date and to take your dissection seriously. Also: Some times folks notify dlb and I that they have change in plans or emergencies and cannot do their chapters-So, if you don't get a chapter in time STILL put your name down: we always need emergency subs. Thanks!

Man, this is exciting! But I must reign it in to ask a functional question: when it's our turn, do we just post our chapter dissection in the forum, or do you also want us to submit a "Copy For Approval" before hand?

You post what you post-how folks dissect is up to them and there's no set "style", as long as you cover the main points of the chapter without spoiling ahead. I write mine straight on to the Watch, some use a word processor as a different means of organizing their thoughts. There's no submission for approval here!
