Like in the show Whose Line Is It Anyway? You continue the alphabet in the first letter of the first word of your post, but instead of merely giving an arbitrary word, you have to carry on an interaction, and the response can be anything from a single word response to a full discourse. An alphabetic round robin if you will.



Alright, I'll start. If your post doesn't track, it will be removed, or if admin doesn't get to it before the next poster, they have the option to skip you and respond to the post before yours.

Boy, it sure is hard to think of something to start the ball rolling for this game.

Can we pick up where we left off before? I think we were discussing the best techniques for preventing robots from taking over the world.

Don't see why not. You wanted to steal their batteries if they mis-behaved.

Erm... why stealing their batteries if they don't have any? Never seen Terminator?

From what I remember in Terminator 2 there was mention of an internal power pack or battery wasn't there?

Greatest robot vs. man story I ever read is 'The Stainless Steel Leech' by Roger Zelazney. You afriad that robots will take over the world? Try vampire robots! Ha!

ahem... like I said... good story!

How can the robots be sure there will be enough blood to keep them going, though? And wouldn't the blood tend to rust or corrode them?

Ingenious design made the Stainless Steel Leech a vampire of other robots! They tried to decommission him, you see... took away his power source... and so he had to learn to steal away the power of other robots to stay 'alive'.

Man... I need to look for that book and read it again! Wonderful short story!
*regards humongous pile of books* hmm....

Jumped on them and sucked their juice, huh?

Killer bug robots made with stainless steel??? Sounds like the ultimate weapon to conquer the world.

Lest we begin to shake in terror, I'm still confident that Mac would be able to deactivate them.

Maybe he would then re-program them for the benefit of humanity.

No-one's gonna want vampire robots working for them though. Best to destroy them me thinks.

Or collect all the different types of vampire robots and start a museum.

People might come.

Questions will be asked

Rust will win in the end.

Shall we leave the rusty vampire robots behind and start another topic, like 'my dream house with MacGyver'? Tree house would be nice.
